A man known only as Cassian Vale, a former government ghost and criminal genius, surrenders to authorities after a decade in the shadows. But he has one condition: he will only speak to Ayla Trent, a rookie cyber-investigator who has no idea why she’s been chosen. Cassian claims that a secret society is orchestrating global chaos from behind the scenes, and he has the names, the proof, and the leverage—but he’ll only reveal them one by one, in exchange for favors, protection, and immunity. Each name he provides unlocks a new case—a corrupt billionaire, a hidden assassin, a double agent—and Ayla is pulled deeper into a world of deception, danger, and secrets that threaten everything she thought she knew. But is Cassian helping… or playing a longer, darker game?

In a galaxy governed by the Universal Ranking System, power is quantified, and destiny is dictated by an omnipotent algorithm. Every being, from the lowliest drone to the most elite warrior, is assigned a rank that determines their worth, access, and fate. For centuries, the system has maintained order but now, it’s breaking down. Kael Arvid, a disgraced pilot turned rogue hacker, lives in the shadow of his former rank. Once a rising star in the Interstellar Fleet, Kael was stripped of his status after a catastrophic mission that left him questioning the system’s integrity. When he stumbles upon a hidden code buried deep within the algorithm a code that could dismantle the entire hierarchy—he becomes the most wanted man in the galaxy. Pursued by the ruthless Ascendancy Corps, Kael must forge uneasy alliances with outcasts, rebels, and rogue AIs who have their own reasons for wanting the system destroyed. But as Kael delves deeper into the code, he uncovers a chilling truth: the system isn’t just ranking lives it’s controlling them. And it has a plan for Kael that could either save the galaxy or doom it forever. As the ranking system spirals into chaos, Kael must decide whether to destroy the algorithm, seize control of it, or transcend it entirely. In a universe where every choice is quantified, Kael’s defiance could spark a revolution—or ignite a war that will consume the stars.

New alliances will be forged, old adversaries will rise, and the dawn of the supernaturals will reshape destiny itself.
