Synchrony: The Unclaimed Lands

What if traveling between parallel worlds meant risking your sanity, and only human empathy could protect you?

In a Synchrony multiverse, worlds are linked by Crossings, but only a rare few can guide consciousness safely through the Abyss. They're called Lotsmen -sensitive, vulnerable, indispensable. They hear what others would rather forget, and feel what cannot be faked - even if they didn't choose to.

So what do you do when you've become part of a system you never chose?
Run from it, like Stina?
Try to change it from within, like Yang?
Undermine it quietly, like Iga?
Or, like Seth, attempt to dismantle the very foundation it rests on?

For a young Lotsman pair, everything seems routine - a standard assignment, an ordinary transit. But what starts as a simple cargo mission becomes the center of a conspiracy that could disrupt the safety of their homeworld and upend the fragile balance of the entire Ring of Worlds.

Interdimensional crossings, buried fears, and political intrigue collide. Their bond will be tested. And the choices they make will determine... far too much.
