In a future society where emotions are controlled, bottled, and sold by an elite Council, one man’s fractured memories hold the key to unraveling the system. Aren, once a loyal member of the Council, now stands on the brink of rebellion, gripping a vial of forbidden emotion that could shatter everything he once believed. Haunted by fragmented memories of a life he can no longer trust, Aren must navigate a world where nothing is as it seems. As he questions the authenticity of his own feelings, he begins to uncover a terrifying truth: the emotions that drive humanity have been carefully curated, manipulated, and, in some cases, erased. With every step closer to the truth, Aren’s grip on reality weakens, as he faces alternate versions of himself across different timelines, each more dangerous than the last. Amid shifting loyalties and shadowy conspiracies, Aren must decide whether to use his newfound knowledge to dismantle the Council’s control or to seize power for himself. But as he spirals deeper into the labyrinth of his mind, the line between liberator and oppressor begins to blur. In a world where emotions are a commodity, and memory is a weapon, what does it mean to truly feel? And can Aren reclaim his identity before it’s too late—or has the Council already erased him from existence?
