==Synopsis==
Through snow and frost, through post-nuclear taiga and silent, empty cities. Through the snow and ice of Lake Baikal, to where your own madness draws you. To Irkutsk. To walk along the edge, constantly balancing on the thin line of humanity. To cross it, you need to become a beast - to defeat those who long ago ceased to be human. To take the upper hand over nature, enemies, and yourself. To survive. To save those in whose existence you are unsure. To see if there is any humanity left in you, or if the beast which awakened seventeen years ago is the sole master of your consciousness.
