In ancient Babylon, fate is governed by a mysterious Lottery—once a simple game of chance, now a terrifying instrument of control. Winners gain wealth and power, while losers face exile, torture, or death. No one knows who truly controls it, yet all fear its decrees.

Through shadowed alleys and secret gatherings, a diverse cast of characters—merchants, scribes, nobles, and conspirators—seek to uncover the truth behind the Lottery. Some believe it is ruled by an omnipotent organization; others suspect it is merely a lingering myth.
