Aether Protocol

A Cyberpunk Magic Revolution



In the year 2042, the world runs on Aether—programmable dark matter energy channeled through corporate-controlled smartdevices called Conduits. Magic is licensed, spells are subscription-based, and unauthorized glyph-coding is a crime punishable by neural scrubbing.



Lucent Argyr, a debt-ridden underground fighter with a talent for stealing codes, stumbles upon a forbidden truth: the original Aether code was never meant to be caged.



Hunted by corporate's private army, courted by the hacker collective GhostKey, and tormented by visions of a deeper conspiracy, Lucent must decide whether to:



Sell his power to the highest bidder



Burn the system to the ground



Or unravel the darkest secret of all...



With his modified Conduit overheating and his borrowed glyphs, Lucent’s final fight won’t be in the arena—but against the gods of the new world.
