For all his life, Micah Wheeler loved Solas. It was a card game like no other, having replaced sterile boards of fabric and the realm of imagination with sleek glass and holograms that made fantasies reality. The game was magnetic, hypnotic, and had brought many into its thrall in its short lifespan. Micah was happy to be one of those many, letting the world fade away as he and his friends indulged in their cards, but was it all truly worth it when life seemed to crumble around him? What kind of hold did the game have on other people, and what did it say about them when all the flash and spectacle had ceased? Rulebook 1. Each player is given three Hero cards, which will serve as their combatants to defeat their opponent. Each Hero has a number known as Powerpoints attached to them to overpower weaker opponents. Defeated Heroes are sent to the Discard pile until a player rotates through the rest of their Hero cards. 2. Each Player also has three Magic and several Treasure cards that can aid in increasing their Hero card's power. Magic Cards can be used once before being discarded, whereas Treasures will stay on the field until the game ends. 3. The game is separated into two categories of play: a Single-Phase and a Double-Phase. A Single-Phase game limits the players to three Magics and no Treasure Cards. Double-Phase games offer unlimited Magic Cards as well as the aforementioned Treasures. 4. The first player to gain three victories is declared the winner.

Senhara National University looks exactly like it's supposed to. Clean walkways. Green status lights. Banners that read Stay Stable. Stay Well. The flux system runs through all of it - the infrastructure, the institutions, the implant at the base of every throat - and the dashboard always reads stable. Everyone's implant sits flush. Seamless. The new models barely look like hardware at all. Naoki Kisaragi's doesn't. It's older, bulkier, and it has never quite fit the way the system expects it to. He keeps his collar up, his sleeves down, and his questions to himself. Somewhere in the part he built from gray market parts, something pulses in five colors that don't exist in any official manual. Naoki is a second-year engineering student at SNU with a robotics competition to win and a group of friends who are starting to feel like home. He grew up watching the Rekkō - the flux response teams who walk into the zones everyone else is told to leave - and has been building toward something ever since. SNU was supposed to be where that started. But the compliance sessions are getting more specific. A classmate's seat has been empty for two weeks. The public safety advisories are using a word he's only heard once before - as a kid, in a bland hallway that smelled like disinfectant, with his grandmother's hand locked around his wrist. Something is running underneath SNU that isn't on any official chart. And Naoki is starting to understand what stable is actually measuring.
