Titan's Tears unfolds predominantly on an Alaskan island, housing one of the world's most influential companies, Eccleston Evolution. Specializing in bioengineering and environmental rehabilitation, Eccleston Evolution's headquarters is enveloped by the Pleistocene Reserve—an expanse that serves as a sanctuary for de-extinct species: mammoths, saber-toothed tigers, dire wolves, and more. The driving force behind decades of technological and biological progress is the company's founder, Sophia Eccleston, a figure unapologetically aware of her wealth and influence. "She knew she was rich and powerful and made no attempt to hide it and every attempt to flaunt it."
Belle, mysteriously lacking memories of her life before arriving, finds herself in the remote Alaskan town of Kobuksville. An invitation from Sophia for a job offer thrusts Belle into an unfamiliar world. There are many peculiarities that arise when Belle arrives at St. Olga and makes the trek up to the headquarters, eventually prompting her to question the true nature of her surroundings: "Are you trying to build Jurassic Park?" Embracing the role of a nanny to Sophia's blind daughter, Juno, Belle gains insight into the day-to-day operations at Eccleston Evolution. As she navigates her responsibilities, she senses that things are awry, especially within the product development wing.
