Will Barrent, stripped of memory and accused of a crime, is sent to the brutal planet Omega, a prison for extreme offenders where survival hinges on committing further crimes. With an average life expectancy of just three years, Barrent's journey revolves around his struggle to escape and return to Earth to clear his name. Earth is a stagnant utopia characterized by mutual trust and conformity, maintained by robots that brainwash children in closed classes. While both societies share similar ideologies, they diverge in expression: Omega's citizens worship a malevolent entity known as The Black One, whereas Earth's religion combines the positive aspects of past faiths under the Church of the Spirit of Mankind Incarnate. As Barrent delves deeper into the reasons behind his incarceration, he grapples with a psychological conflict between his new life on Omega and the subconscious programming instilled in him during childhood. This internal struggle manifests through repeated battles and experiences, ultimately revealing the grim fate foretold by a mutant girl on Omega.
