*The world is haunted by the remnants of a once-thriving civilization belonging to a now-extinct race in a far-off future. With technology that has evolved a tenth to a fourth billion years into the future, a race that once ruled over a planet the size of a supermassive black hole now lies half-empty. This hollow megastructure is inhabited only by the demolished concrete hell, fragments of stone that tumble to the ground every second, and the horrifying mutation that emerged when a massively destructive infection destroyed humans and crushed their pride.* *In thousands of years, a sentient being known only as "The Qär" emerges. This conscious, lifelike form, which lacks a physical body to adapt to, resides behind the walls of concrete and dominates the net. The Qär was running out of time, and human civilization needed to be restarted in order to prevent its demise. In order to produce cybernetically modified bodies and rid the globe of mutants, the Qär gathers the last remaining souls and their consciousnesses from the internet.
