Set decades in the future, the sun has become a threat to humanity. A brother and his blind sibling seek shelter in an abandoned house, but what they uncover inside puts them in even greater danger.
The year is 2067. The sun is now a threat to humanity. A plague spreads through exposure, turning people into part of a hive mind known as the Dhaleel. Survivors have adapted, living in isolation and wearing protective suits to keep the infection out. In the ruins of a city, a brother and his blind sibling are making their way towards a rumoured settlement. They are desperate to reach safety, but exhaustion forces them to stop in an abandoned house. It is supposed to be a temporary break. Instead, they discover something inside that was never meant to be found.
