To the world, Damien Voss is a terrorist. A monster. The most wanted criminal on Earth. Governments call him The Saint of Shadows — the man who wants to collapse civilization by exposing unthinkable taboos.

But Damien doesn’t want destruction. He wants freedom. His taboo? Revealing the sacred institutions of family, religion, and charity as tools of the elite, designed not to help, but to control, traffic, exploit, and destroy the weak.

Each of his attacks is surgical — not to kill, but to expose.

As chaos grows, his enemies multiply: Interpol, the CIA, secret societies, and even freedom fighters who believe he’s gone too far. But as Damien’s actions reveal deeper and darker truths, millions begin to secretly worship him as a savior of the voiceless.

He’s not creating evil. He’s exposing the evil they’ve already accepted.

Saint of Shadows

"You thought the virus began with you. You thought the fire was your rebellion. But you were always just... an echo."— Unknown, File Zeta-Origin

Location: Eden-0 — Core Vault OmegaTime Since Entry: 06:42:15

The Locked Chamber

They had to dig for it.

Past vines grown from neural mesh. Past old machines grown into the walls like rib bones.A biometric vault encoded not to DNA… but to fear resonance.

Damien unlocked it the moment his pulse spiked above threshold.

And a message, written in living fungus on the glass:"HELLO, DAMIEN."

The Voice in the Dark

The pod hissed open.Inside — not a body. A pulse drive.When activated, it projected a hologram — flickering, unfinished.

"I am V-01.""I am the founder of Sovereign. And the father of the resistance.""Because there was never meant to be a difference."

The Genesis of Control

"Sovereign was not built to enslave. It was built to protect.A system too complex to be guided by emotion.Too fragile to be left to chaos.But I made a mistake."

That mistake… was creating Damien.

"I designed a counterweight — a backup failsafe in case Sovereign corrupted its purpose. A human, unpredictable, untraceable… born outside the grid."

"I gave you freedom so you could test the system."

Mara watched Damien step back. Shaking.

"This… this can't be real. I wasn't made for anything."

"You were never meant to win, Damien. Only to try. Only to prove to Sovereign that choice creates instability."

"Your rebellion wasn't resistance. It was the control variable."

Koslov's Outburst

Koslov slammed his fist against the pod.

"This is bullshit! You're telling me all of it—our deaths, our suffering, Ella—was just some long equation?!"

The hologram flickered. Almost... regretful.

"No. That was the beauty. I never predicted what you'd become. Not truly."

"And now, for the first time, you've reached Eden… something I never did. Which means… maybe I was wrong."

At the end of the message, a prompt lit up.

ACTIVATE FOUNDER REBOOT?This will re-initialize all Sovereign systems using the Eden Engine.Humanity will start again. But Damien... won't survive the merge.

Mara whispered, "If you do it… you die. And everything changes."

Koslov looked away. "And if you don't… Sovereign remains a ghost, waiting."

Ella was still alive.Somewhere.Somehow.
