The world ended centuries ago.
Nations collapsed beneath atomic fire, chemical wars, and endless conflict. What survived was not peace, but factions fighting over the ruins of civilization.
After losing her parents during local riots and watching her sister disappear into the arms of an enemy leader, a young girl is left alone in a starving, violent world where survival is worth more than morality.
Forced to join one of the ruling factions to escape hunger and death, she discovers terrifying rumors may actually be true.
Hidden in the shadows of history exist people capable of controlling a mysterious energy woven into the universe itself - a power awakened by generations of war, mutation, and suffering.
These "superhumans" are feared, hunted, and weaponized by the factions.
During the recruitment process, special tests are used to uncover those gifted with the ability to sense and manipulate this energy.
She should have failed.
She cannot feel the energy.
She shows no signs of mutation.
She is completely ordinary.
And yet... she is chosen.
As war spreads across the rebuilding world, she is dragged into a reality filled with secret clans, brutal military operations, political manipulation, betrayal, love, and the ghosts of her past - including the sister who now stands on the opposite side of the battlefield.
In a dying world trying to be reborn, humanity may become something far more dangerous than human.
