Beneath the Horizon by emtofu

In the subterranean city of Horizon, memories are the ultimate weapon of control. The city's rulers use a system known as Cerebrox, a technology designed to selectively erase or rewrite the memories of those who pose a threat to the regime. Citizens are routinely subjected to memory alterations to suppress trauma. Keira Lee, a twenty-year-old Drudge from the lower ranks, works in the Wipe Division-an underground department tasked with administering Cerebrox on those deemed dangerous by the ruling class. Though considered expendable by Horizon's elite, Keira has spent years learning how to manipulate the Cerebrox system, secretly making herself immune by knowing how to avoid detection. While others lose their memories, Keira retains everything-her immunity making her both dangerous and essential. When Keira is unexpectedly selected for the Ascendancy Trials, a deadly competition designed to elevate a few from the lower ranks into the elite Sentinels, but she knows something isn't right. The Trials aren't just about physical prowess-they're designed to identify those whose minds can be easily controlled. The further a competitor gets, the more of their past is erased, until only the most compliant remain. As Keira navigates the Trials, she encounters Wade Harrington, a seasoned Sentinel and instructor with a mysteriously fragmented past. Wade's mind has been wiped so many times that he's become a blank slate, the perfect soldier for Horizon's rulers. But as he gets closer to Keira, sparks of his forgotten life start to surface. Keira and Wade uncover the terrifying truth about the Ascendancy Trials. They are not just a path to power-they are a tool to erase the memories of those with rebellious tendencies, transforming them into obedient enforcers of the regime. She must tread carefully, using her secret abilities to outsmart the Trials and uncover the hidden archives of memories wiped from society's collective consciousness.
