Macau, 2045. The Pearl of the Orient glistens with neon and corporate power, where Genesis Corp's reach extends into every transaction, every street, every thought.

Allen Wu is a runner — part ghost, part data courier — navigating the city's digital underbelly with Syn, a symbiotic implant that opens doors most people don't know exist. He survived a childhood he barely remembers, on an island that feels like another life. Now the neon labyrinth is his home.

When a routine job pulls him into something far bigger than a data run, Allen finds himself hunted by forces that don't officially exist, leaning on people he barely trusts, and asking questions that Genesis Corp kills to keep unanswered. Somewhere beneath the city's perfect surface, something is being built. And it's getting close to done.
