Deep within the earth lies a vast chasm known as the Abyss, teeming with strange creatures and ancient relics from ages long gone. Its origins and what exists at its deepest point remain unsolved mysteries that countless explorers, called Divers, have risked their lives to uncover by descending into its darkest reaches.

Yet they remain unaware of the cruel truths awaiting them in the Abyss's true reality.

Vash the Stampede carries a 60 billion double-dollar bounty on his head.
