The old world is gone. No rulers, no single authority, no forced governance.
- Vigil exists only in fragments, scattered operatives working without direction.
- The Sovereigns are shattered, their influence reduced to isolated enclaves.
- The Variants are everywhere, not as conquerors, but as architects of a decentralized future.
- Eon remains the final mystery, watching but never interfering.
For the first time, humanity is neither in control nor under control.
And no one knows if that is freedom—or something else entirely.
