In the year 2056, a global epidemic occurred, a deadly virus was spread across the Human Race. This virus has cut the average lifespan of the Human race to just 25 years. This meant the population was stunted severely. However, scientists came up with a way to preserve the body of Humans to allow them to continue living indefinitely inside NEKUR (virtual reality). Essentially, this meant humans were allowed to continue living their lives in a virtual world peacefully, without any risk from the deadly virus that was threatening them before. Each Human was given their own Avatar upon access to NEKUR.
