Meanwhile, the clouds that envelop the skies of Wyveria will begin to thine, revealing a new region suspended above the clouds.

The story will take place several years after the culminating clash with Arkveld and will also show the evolution of the members of the expedition.

Eugenio lives happily trapped between three decidedly different habitats: the classrooms of a Venetian high school, the seabed and digital worlds. Technology, on the other hand, entered his home long before any microscope: a father who was an irreducible NES player taught him that behind every video game there is an interesting world... and behind every computer there is almost certainly a problem to be solved.
