The Border Ethereal Diagnostic: The orb of resonance

By Tracey E Hall

In the fractured ruins Earth, humanity's attempt to upload its soul into the Universal program did not create paradise. It created The Border Ethereal - a flickering digital limbo, where stalled human consciousness has become limbo-leeches, hungry ghosts that feed on fear and despair.
Rayne is the Clergy's most dangerous field technician - a white haired monk-cleric whose implant let her see the grid's corrupted code. She does not exorcise with fire or ritual, she asks one simple question "I wonder..." A single phrase that starves the entities of the emotional fuel they crave.
When a possession in the scrap-metal sprawl of Oakhaven reveals fractures spreading toward the Silent Spires, Rayne is sent to perform the Rites. What she finds is worse than any demon: The Great Entities are preparing a bumper harvest and the Clergy itself has become their willing servants. To stop them Rayne must do the one thing the Grid was never desgined to survive.
She must build an army that chooses life over upload, curiosity over control and hope over fear. Because in a world where spirit is trying to consume flesh, only life can correct spirit. The Border Ethereal Diagnostic has begun.
