Thousands of years into the future, where governments have been replaced by mega-corporations, nano-technology has taken the human race closer to immortality than they could have ever imagined. Once a pipe-dream, nano-technology blossomed due to the use of a rare mineral called notum. The advances in science made through the use nano-machines was unprecedented. Though, even technology has its price, and its master. He who controls the notum, controls the universe.

For over a century, the hyper-corporation Omni-Tek has gone to great lengths to ensure that their control over the planet Rubi-Ka, the only known source of notum, went uncontested. Their ongoing struggle with the rebels known as the Clans over control over the planet has been the source of much hardship and pain for the Rubi-Kan citizenry. With a war over the very source of man's future in perpetual stalemate, Omni-Tek has prepared one last ditch effort to swing the battle in their favor: to open a portal into another world which is the source of notum itself. Soon the path to the dark side of Rubi-Ka will open, the gate to the Shadowlands.

Funcom invites you to join the thousands of other players worldwide to go through the portal and into this savage new world. Enter the Shadowlands, where notum flows in its true form, as the very essence of life, and where the prelude and final chapter of mankind were written eons ago. Only the brave will discover the truth behind this fractured dimension and bring the legacy of humanity full-circle.
