Before the first blade is drawn, there is a moment of stillness.

A figure stands at the threshold-neither hunter nor ruler alone, but something forged between extinction and restraint. In a civilization built on conquest, survival has become a quieter war, fought not with weapons, but with discipline.

Ancient instincts demand blood. Tradition demands dominance. Yet the future cannot endure endless victory.

Visions come unbidden. Choices are weighed before they are understood. And the fate of a dying species rests not in fury-but in the will to hold it back.

This is the story of what happens before war.
When power hesitates.
When restraint becomes the most dangerous force of all.

The crew of the Āletheia wasn't sent to find anyone. They were there to study the ice. But when they uncover a sealed pod beneath the Ross Ice Shelf's southern flank, everything begins to shift. The man inside is alive. He shouldn't be. He's not who they expected. He doesn't know who he is. And the longer he stays awake, the more the crew begins to fracture. Dreams intensify. Data corrupts. Symbols appear in places they shouldn't. And something beneath the ice is listening. This is a story about memory, silence, and the weight of being found. It's not about saving the world. It's about surviving what wakes up.
