This is a slow-burn story, and things take a while to pick up. It is also darker than some might like and involves heavy themes such as manipulation and vivid descriptions of gore. You've been warned. Schedule: 3 Chapters per week on Friday - Sunday - Tuesday. What would you do if everything you have ever known is gone, and you can reshape yourself into something... more? Lots of mistakes, that's what. Alan has a body he cannot depend on, few friends, and a desire to be left alone. He is bitter and disappointed in the world, until an elevator ride changes everything, and his past life becomes a distant, long-gone dream. Only ruins remain of civilization as he knew it as the omnipotent System has taken over existence and fate. What path will he take? Will he embrace the shadows, give up his humanity, serve a higher power, or fight the machinations of fate and Gods? All he wants is to be free to live as he wishes. But freedom has a price. A bunch of dead or dying worlds mashed together as if they were simple clay by an almighty System. Every corner of the new world hides power and opportunities, mysteries and beauty. But not every danger is to be avoided, nor every treasure is to be taken.
