Orion has been transported to the Abysmal Plane, where he finds a giant tree which is the cosmic axis of the universe, and seems to meet dead people, including his mother. He then finds Clockwerx, the ruler of that realm, who has been imprisoned by the Ecruos, beings who are trying to destroy the tree, and with it, the entire universe.
