Nick Brown and Worrick Arcangelo, called the "Handymen" in Ergastalum"s streets, are freelance fighters who tackle assignments that others refuse. Hired by both crime syndicates and law enforcement, they must always be prepared for any task. After finishing a contract to eliminate a local hustler, the Handymen bring Alex Benedetto—a sex worker also marked for removal—into their crew to shield her from those who wish she vanished from the crumbling slums she now calls home. Yet this law‑less haven is entering a deep transformation that threatens to erode the fragile power equilibrium.
Ergastalum once sheltered "Twilights," super‑human beings created by a unique drug, but they are now hunted by a ruthless underground faction. This new menace is poised to upend everything the city represents, and the Handymen cannot escape the impending conflict. They must decide whether to protect the Twilights or side with the syndicates, knowing that every choice could ignite a citywide battle. The fate of Ergastalum hangs in the balance today.
