Synopsis

After Earth was ravaged by World War III, the remnants of civilization were reconstructed, with the advanced city of Olympus shining as its crowning achievement. Managed by the supercomputer Gaia and inhabited by a vast number of Bioroids—genetically engineered beings created to oversee all administrative tasks—Olympus provides its citizens with a life free from concern. Yet, a wave of criminal activity has begun to rise within this seemingly perfect society. To safeguard the populace, Deunan Knute and her partner Briareos Hecantochires serve on Olympus' Enhanced SWAT team, tackling the most violent cases. When a terrorist faction threatens to destroy the Olympians' way of life, Deunan and Briareos vow to bring them down—regardless of the cost.

Background
