The oceans have vanished, replaced by an enigmatic force beneath the remnants of civilization, an infinite power source that hums with untold secrets. Cities of gleaming spires and neon-lit corridors cling to these drifting continents, where the remnants of humanity thrive under a futuristic society shaped by science, ambition, and an unspoken fear of the past.

Turing Test
In the year 2150, emotions are a forgotten language. Feelings, outlawed. Humanity, reduced to an unfeeling, cold existence under the iron rule of The Regimen.

Cora, a brilliant government engineer responsible for maintaining the emotion-suppressing technology, experiences an unexpected malfunction.

In a world stripped of color, Eli is an enigma. A member of a burgeoning underground rebellion, he hides a powerful secret - a genetic mutation that makes him immune to emotion suppressants. Eli has known the pain and pleasure of feelings all his life. Now, he becomes Cora's compass in her chaotic new reality, guiding her through the wild storm of emotions and introducing her to a hidden world fighting for emotional freedom.
