Synthetics Volume One (2025-)

The expanding dead zones have pushed humanity to its breaking point. In the crumbling cities, rage gangs fight over scraps, while others abandon their bodies for the cyber-void. Amid this desperation, a new kind of human has emerged. Their origin is unknown, their purpose unclear. To some, they are saviors; to others, they are abominations. The old world’s last survivors watch them with a mixture of awe and terror, unsure if this is evolution or a final, manufactured curse. The air tastes of ozone and decay.
