A world
devastated by catastrophes
The story
of Arknights takes place in Terra, a science
fiction world where natural disasters force humanity to live
in nomadic cities. These catastrophes generate a valuable and dangerous mineral
called Originium, which produces great energy but causes Oripathy,
a degenerative disease. Those infected are often marginalized, and this is
where Rhodes Island comes in, a medical and military
organization that offers support and combat to Reunion, an
insurgent group fighting oppression.
