Twenty years after the world fell, the Aerie stands as one of the last safe places left-an isolated agricultural colony protected by high walls, strict rules, and the iron will of its leader, Andrew Williams. Inside, life is structured. Predictable. Safe. For Gage Williams, safety has always felt like a cage. When a regular day in 'The Aerie' unravels into a nightmare, Gage and his friends are dragged into a violent, unfamiliar world beyond the walls-a world filled with twisted ruins, brutal survivor factions, and creatures that should not exist. And at the center of it all is Camden Blake, a mysterious outsider with more scars and secrets than trust to spare. To survive, they'll have to rely on each other... even as loyalties fracture, buried truths rise, and the line between good and evil blurs into something unrecognizable. Because out here, the dead aren't the only monsters. And the living might be even worse. AFTERLIGHT is a gripping, character-driven survival drama full of tension, found family, slow-burn sparks, and the brutal beauty of a world determined to kill you. Dive in-if you're ready to face the dark.
