2139 in a world divided between the towering, gleaming city of Empyra and the dark, neglected underground of Murk, tensions are rising. The people of Murk, tired of being ignored and oppressed, begin striking back with small, targeted attacks on Empyra, hoping to awaken the upper city to their suffering. But Empyra’s leaders, determined to maintain control, change their approach—sending forces to crush the growing rebellion.

Kael, a carefree, rebellious boy who’s spent his time causing mischief in both cities, suddenly realizes the threat to his home is far more dire than he thought. With Murk at risk of being destroyed, Kael decides to step up, forming a plan to stop Empyra’s forces and expose the corruption of its leaders. But as the battle intensifies, Kael is forced to confront the complicated truths about both cities, his own future, and the cost of revolution.
