Synopsis

"Huh.... where am i....?"

One day, young Elize finds herself in a strange world, filled with dark creatures and a deep unfathomable abyss. There, she meets a being who calls himself Chronos, the master of time. He took Elize to the Gap Between Time. Because he must return her to the world of monsters, he gave her an armor and a sword, as well as his knowledge of combat. But even then Elize was a normal girl living a peaceful life before this, and she's scared that a mistake might cost her life....

That's why he also gave her a piece of his power

The power to stop time.

However, her body cannot withstand such power, and as such she can only use it once in her lifetime, otherwise her body would crumble.

Armed and gifted with new powers, Elize readies herself to fight the evil creatures:

"Why did they do this? what have i done?"

"I must survive, and know for myself why i am brought here!"
