200 years in the future, after the technological revolution has come and gone, the solar system sits in stagnation, reveling in its legacy. Financial inequality has split the race into two; those that can afford genetic engineering and those that cannot. While the Rachten, the wealthy few, have access to patented genes that prolong life and increase intelligence, the mega-corporations they own feed off a carefully managed population; crammed into decaying city stations strewn about the outer solar system.To even the odds, Ares opts for expensive implants and tech upgrades. Unable to meet his loans, he quickly finds himself on the run from the Bank. But there is nowhere to hide in a universe where everything, and everyone, is an eye.His flight takes him on a journey across a solar system on the verge of change, plagued by dissonance (despite the shiny veneer of the inner system), technological and engineering marvels, AI hidden from the world, and strange rumors from the Oort that have the solar system on edge. However, he soon discovers there is more to events in his life than he ever realized. That realization, that he is a pawn in a game he can’t even fathom, sends him spiraling down a slow, dark, madness.
