The Black Tide consumed the world. The Empire responded with the Proxy Program — soldiers who borrow power from the cosmic Thrones. It brought humanity to a stalemate. But stalemates don’t win wars. The Aevos Protocol was designed to break it: operatives bound to the Thirteenth Throne, able to weaponize time itself against the Tide. Orin is the Protocol’s most promising candidate — and its most unstable. Every pairing attempt destroys another Handler, and the Empire does not maintain weapons that cannot be fielded. Handlers are scarce. Aevos are expensive. One more failed pairing and Orin will be decommissioned. Information first. Victory second. Survive long enough to learn. Learn enough to win.
