Beschreibung
Airus Lamar's life seemed normal behind the walls in place by HAVEC - an organization in charge of the world, and their lives. Airus weaves his way through the cage of life alongside his best friend, Tarika. They must fight to survive among order where daily scans permeate their lives. Their survival is measured by tasks and the worth they hold, earning rations and avoiding the keen eyes and rules in place by the jurisdiction. They must work together to navigate a world where they know nothing beyond the walls around them.
But when Tarika is suddenly taken from Airus, everything he's come to believe and taken for granted is brought into question. As he searches for answers, the life he once knew and the world around him begins to unravel. Where scans dictate not just the value of a life, but what's beneath them that the organization hides. He comes to learn that not just their lives have been taken from them, but everything they've ever known.
In search for the truth and in hopes to be granted a glimpse of what life was like outside the facility, Airus joins a group called the Tithes alongside Dimitri and Gertrude. But when a member of the team suffers a tragedy that brings into question HAVEC's methods, their hope for survival rests not just beyond the walls, but in the ruptured life that eludes them. In their race against time, they have no choice but to abandon the facility that once protected but enslaved them to face the cataclysm of a torn world that threatens to break their very selves.
With the help of his new friends and obscure acquaintances, will Airus be able to save Tarika and everyone he holds dear from the clutches of HAVEC?
