New Story

After your victorious return from the battle in Alternate Dimension: Omega, the universe seems to be righting itself, as the massive Black Hole seems to have disappeared. The only remaining oddity left to address is the sudden appearance of someone bearing a striking resemblance to a recent acquaintance – who happens to call herself Shiva, Goddess of Annihilation. Outside of the forbidding name, perhaps most alarming is the fact that Photon Arts and Techniques appear to be totally ineffective at warding her, and her companions, off. Fortunately, her initial overture towards ARKS was brief, though its purpose was to flatly declare war.

Bolstered by an armada of her own, Shiva has deployed her forces in a standard formation – directly opposing Fleet Oracle. Though the battlespace is limitless, preparation time is not, and the most massive battle in the history of ARKS is about to begin.
