They hacked the human mind. They bent the world to their will. But they didn’t account for the boy inside the machine. Deep beneath the surface of the world, far from law and light, the Parallax Syndicate built The Oyster—a laboratory where thought could be weaponized, where obedience could be programmed, and where free will became a design flaw. From this hidden fortress, four scientists reshaped society, one mind at a time. Nations obeyed. Wars vanished. Peace reigned—by force. Their system was flawless. Their influence—undetected, undeniable. And their legacy? A boy born within their machine. Heir to their empire, molded by their intellect, trained to uphold their command. But beneath the precision they instilled, a question took root—What if humanity was meant to choose? Raised in the heart of this system, Kael Draven was meant to inherit it all. Trained by his father, Dr. Aurex Draven, Kael knew every code, every algorithm, every flaw. But unlike them, Kael believed in something dangerous: freedom. Now, with the world asleep under the Syndicate’s spell, Kael is the only one who can wake it. Armed with the Syndicate’s deepest secrets and haunted by the memories they tried to erase, he’ll spark a rebellion from within. The mind was their weapon. Kael will make it their undoing.

In 2081, five-year-old twins Aaron and Anya Lockwood are forced to flee as their parents’ secret neuroscience lab goes up in flames. Moments before the end, their parents inject them with the final fragment of a groundbreaking invention, Neuroid, a neural implant capable of recording not just memory, communication through mind link but the very essence of consciousness. Separated to survive, the twins grow up in different worlds. Aaron becomes Kael Vale, a hardened ex-Marine buried under years of trauma and silence. Anya becomes Lyra Thompson, a rising neuroscientist unknowingly working to resurrect the very technology that tore their family apart. Twenty-five years later, Kael hears a voice no one should know: his real name. As echoes of their past resurface through dream bleeds and shared memories, the twins are drawn back into a corporate war for control over human minds. But Neuroid is more than tech, it’s legacy. And somewhere inside the system, their parents are still alive… in pieces. To survive, Kael must find Lyra and reunite to resist the ghosts inside them, and decide whether to weaponize memory or heal from it. In a world where minds can be mapped, sold, and rewritten, what does it mean to remember who you really are?
