Torn apart by the mysterious death of her father, young hacker Nya Rodgers finds peace in the virtual reality world of Matriarch. The game is run by The Queen, a woman of absolute power. And absolute secrecy. No one's sure if she's even a player, but it's said she guards an orb of infinite knowledge called Coeus. According to in-game lore, Coeus can answer any given question with 100 percent accuracy. There was this big story about these kids that became millionaires overnight because they all happened to invest stock in this one company that got really big really quick. They said they knew to invest in it because they actually got to Coeus and asked it how to get rich. Ever since, the single goal of every Matriarch player has been to do the same. Some want love, some want fame, some want to know who'll win the next World Cup. Nya doesn't want to know any of that. She's looking for the answer to a completely different question.
