_Transcendent

A recurring dream from a fateful night haunts Varian. 

With a past he couldn't forgive himself for and a future he abandoned, his life in the present is in tatters.

But when you're alive, there's hope. 

The hope comes one day in an unexpected form. 

The painful past, the meaningless dream and the unexpected way forward force him to make a choice.

Stay broken and remain in the sorrow of the past he couldn't change. 

Or. 

Pick himself back together and try for one last time, to find the truth about his own dream and its connection to his unforgivable past, all in the hopes of forgiveness of himself, by himself.

Divine Path System

After the gentle 'kidnapping' of Uranus' Trade Union Chief, Varian decided his next step. But before that, he needed to resettle his friends who left their normal lives because of him.

Varian sized up the streets in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze. He was staring at the streets that used to be slums just a few weeks ago.

The streets had narrow and dirty roads. Hawkers camped on either side of the narrow road and made it narrower.

Garbage starting from food wrappers to toxic material was strewn across the roads.

The cleaning bots that worked here were too inefficient to make difference and the ones that could actually make a difference were too expensive.

The people were poor and moved around with lowered heads and desolate gazes.
