In the neon-drenched, rain-slicked streets of Neo-Veridia, Elara, a cynical freelance data courier with a faulty, second-hand cybernetic heart, takes on a seemingly simple job: deliver a package for a dazzlingly famous android pop star, Jaxon “Jax” Cyrus. Her world of quiet solitude and meticulously planned routes is thrown into chaos when the “package” turns out to be a bio-engineered cat with a penchant for city-wide digital mayhem. Hunted by a ruthless corporation that wants their feline asset back, Elara and Jax are forced into an uneasy alliance. As they navigate the perilous underworld of illegal tech and corporate espionage, they discover that the greatest risks might not be to their lives, but to their hearts. In a city that blurs the line between human and machine, they might just find a connection that’s truly real.
