# Mancer: Prelude > Story Alexis is a simple girl in a world of magic, where Mancers , mages who protect the last remnants of mortalkind, learn & excel at their magical craft. A purely self-taught mage through online tutorials & how-to guides, Alexis is an underdog with no magical ancestry entering the academic life of her dreams, meeting all sorts of colourful personalities & strange dangers along the way. At the heart of these dangers is the Flood : a world-ending catastrophe that submerged most of the world in miles of arcane seas made of pure primordial chaos, transforming & corrupting everything in it. Only Mancers are able to enter the Flood, wearing specialised (and figure-hugging) skinsuits that allow them to survive the deep, to hunt its corrupted denizens & retrieve clues of their fallen civilisations. Genres Visual novel, ADV, romance, comedy, yuri, ecchi, fantasy Features 30+ manga-style CG art at various points in the story Duration: 3-4 hours (on auto-read) A lore-filled fantasy setting of mages finding & harvesting the ruins of a flooded world Achievements Romantic/lewd scenes Alexis always wanted to become a Mancer: a mage defending mortalkind from the many dangers surrounding it. But even all her training will barely prepare her for the arcane adventures to come. When she arrives at the Travelling Tower, expecting a simple initiation, she is immediately thrown into the Flood: a deadly magical trial filled with twisted monsters, cultists, and who knows what else! Accompanying her is Clary, a quiet elf girl with a gentle soul, and Sage, her boneheaded twin brother, along a cast of other strange personalities awaiting her at the Tower! This short standalone VN is the introduction to the story of MANCER: a world of dead divinities, great floods & mages in bodysuits.
