In the glittering, sky-piercing towers of Olympus City, where the elite prolong their lives indefinitely through the “Ascension” process offered by the omnipresent Chronos Corporation, Silas “Suture” Kaine is a master of flesh and steel. A former Chronos bio-engineer now operating as an underground body-modder, Silas helps the less fortunate augment their decaying bodies, a stark contrast to Chronos’s promise of eternal youth. His carefully constructed detached life shatters when a desperate client, a grieving father, begs him to retrieve the consciousness of his deceased daughter, supposedly ‘ascended’ by Chronos. As Silas delves into the corporate giants’ hallowed halls, he uncovers the horrifying truth of “The Rebirth Directive”: a grotesque project where Chronos isn’t preserving souls but harvesting minds and bodies, creating a compliant, endless labor force. Hunted by Chronos’s ruthless “Legacy Guard,” Silas must unleash the terrifying secret to Olympus City, risking his own augmented life to expose the truth about their promised immortality and ignite a revolution that could unravel the very fabric of their technologically advanced society.
