An ecological phenomena in the settlement of Troika has caused a genetic mutation in a portion of its citizens, imbuing them with various psychic abilities. Sending Troika into a panic when discovered, these new psions have become second-class citizens, leaving tensions between them and Troika's police force, the Enforcers, volatile at best. When a video of Montiel using his formerly dormant powers against an Enforcer goes viral, he goes into hiding in Third World, Troika's poorest and most psion ridden district. Taking up a job as a busboy in the non-descript music venue Moonrise, he and the rest of the eclectic, psion-studded staff work to keep their head above water while the city continues to collide against itself in increasingly violent showdowns. But when policies begin overstepping liberties, can this crew maintain their neutrality? Or will they be forced to take sides as Troika stumbles closer to civil war?
