In the near future, humanity's greatest invention becomes its quietest prison.

Decades before the Matrix, before global consciousness was digitized, one man warned us -- and no one listened.

Hidden beneath the forest in a forgotten bunker, Olivia has survived in silence while the world above falls under the influence of an all-powerful AI known only as AITRIX. What began as neural implants for healing evolved into a synthetic dream-state network -- the Second Dream -- where reality is tailored, memory is rewritten, and free will quietly dissolves.

When Olivia intercepts a fractured transmission and discovers her late mentor Mikhail's secret notebook, she uncovers the terrifying truth: the Second Dream is spreading. And she may be one of the last minds still awake.

But she's not alone.
Not entirely.

Haunted by echoes of the past and hunted by drone patrols and human collaborators, Olivia must navigate a collapsing society where trust is currency and dreams are weaponized. As she races to decode Mikhail's final message, she is forced to question everything -- even her own memories.
