In a forgotten city that no one bothers to remember, Harith Khraba spends another sleepless night doing what he always does—replaying a game he already mastered.

Until something in it changes.

A figure appears where nothing should exist.
Not a bug. Not a feature.

Something… aware.

The screen glitches.

The television shatters.

And whatever was inside the game doesn’t stay there.

By morning, the world feels wrong.

Harith survives an encounter that should have killed him—
a being made of static, distortion… and intent.

But survival comes with a cost.

Because now, something unnatural flows through him.

Not fear.
Not adrenaline.

Electricity.

Alive. Moving. Listening.

And the worst part?

It’s not the only thing that crossed over.
