The simulation was a refuge… The reality is a death trap…
Kyrah is a user of MyReality, a sophisticated AI program designed to warehouse humanity while a dying Earth heals.
For years, she has navigated shifting scenes and program generated bots, but when her digital interface—her only link to control—vanishes, she is left flying blind in a world that feels dangerously authentic.
In the beautiful but sterile community of Tartaria, Kyrah discovers the truth: she isn't just a user; she’s a subject.
Beneath the veneer of utopia lies The Down Below, a subterranean purgatory where the unfit are discarded.
Overseen by The Elite—masked judges who live hidden in plain sight—Kyrah is sentenced for a crime she doesn't want to remember: Murder.
Now, the slow burn of her psychological isolation ignites into a brutal fight for survival.
Trapped in the ultimate game, Kyrah must face her only friend in a gladiatorial arena where there is only one rule: Kill or be killed to earn your exile.
Kyrah must decide if she is willing to become the monster the Elite want her to be, or if the world she left behind is even worth the blood it takes to return.
