Qabalistic!

Within this world, we live in relative concord... Always room for discord.
But what if there was a utopian civilization, within this world?
Qabals constructed such a place, dwelled there a long time.

Who are Qabals? People like us, all walks converge in commune.
Differences mean nothing, everyone meets halfway... That's utopia!
But it's abandoned... What happened? Nobody knows, save one.

Three years ago, commune discovered by Erica Esote, woman fascinated by Qabals.
She serves as caretaker, studying commune to crack Qabals' code!
Sadly, she hasn't made much headway... Symbols stymie her. Artifacts, not so much.

One artifact above others, protect it... A mask, feared and revered by Qabals.
They believe there's a ghost in the shell, the mask is alive? Erica finds that hard to believe.
Until one day, she ventures to mask's shrine... And it possesses her!

From then on, they work in tandem to revive Qabals... Is this what Erica was meant to do?
