Made in Abyss: Journey's Dawn

In the desolate yet mystifying world of Nikushimo, the city of Orðr ruins is a mecca for adventurers seeking to unravel the secrets hidden within the depths of the Abyss. The vast expanse, divided into 24 uncharted layers, holds treasures and dangers in equal measure. It's within this unforgiving terrain that Riko, a young and spirited girl, sets out on her perilous journey. Riko's journey begins under the guidance of her mother, Lyza the Annihilator, an accomplished White Whistle whose legend echoes throughout the city of Orðr. With her unwavering determination to reach the bottom of the Abyss, Riko's descent with her robot companion Reg marks the beginning of a series of events that will push her skills to their limits. Upon entering the dark confines of the Abyss, Riko quickly adapts to the unforgiving environment. The initial stages seem daunting, filled with the eerie silence and the treacherous terrain that demands the utmost skill from its explorers. However, with Reg by her side, Riko gradually becomes accustomed to the challenges posed by the Abyss. As they venture further, the landscape transforms into a complex network of caves, gorges, and tunnels that seem to have a life of their own. Upon reaching the second layer, Riko stumbles upon a hidden village, its existence a testament to the tenacity of its inhabitants. Among those who dwell here, a skilled White Whistle named Ozen, who, much to Riko's surprise, reveals that they share a connection. Ozen, sensing an unquenchable thirst for knowledge within Riko, chooses to share a crucial revelation - Lyza is not just Riko's mother but also one of the few individuals to have reached the bottom of the Abyss, a feat achieved by only a handful of people in history. Ozen, while being cryptic in her tone, provides Riko with critical information. She explains that Lyza had reached the depths before her but ultimately vanished, leaving behind few clues. Riko becomes increasingly driven by the desire to unravel the mystery behind her mother's disappearance, a quest that is fraught with peril and uncertainty. As the stakes grow higher, Riko and Reg find themselves entangled in a web of intricate circumstances. The encounter with Ozen not only deepens Riko's understanding of the Abyss but also introduces her to the unforgiving world of White Whistles, a group notorious for their ruthless pursuit of knowledge. Each decision made by Riko further sets the course for a journey that promises both discovery and destruction. With the introduction of Ozen, the stakes are heightened, and Riko's resolve becomes unshakeable. The path to uncover the truth behind her mother's disappearance appears fraught with dangers, but the allure of knowledge and the need to prove herself as a formidable explorer propel her forward.
