In the city of Systema, perfection is law and individuality is obsolete. Every citizen moves in rhythm with the program-until Elian, a quiet analyst at Omnis Corp, begins to sense the hum beneath the order. When a mysterious book is found, one that seems to read him back, reality itself starts to glitch.
Time stutters, reflections delay, and the flawless city shows its cracks.
Guided by the elusive Seris, Elian crosses the boundaries of the system into the unrendered edges of existence, where forgotten truths and hidden frequencies wait. What begins as curiosity becomes an awakening that threatens everything he knows.
As the system fights to erase him, Elian must decide whether to return to the safety of illusion or become what the program fears most.
