Children of Acadia

Two hundred years ago, the Roaches swept across the Earth, annihilating everything in their path. Humanity’s remnants retreated behind the walls of Acadia—a militarized city where every citizen’s worth is dictated by a ruthless merit score. Earn enough points and you live in safety. Fall short, and you’re Rifted—cast into the depths beyond salvation. Jessica teeters on the edge of that fate, forced into the Mahghetto—an unforgiving gauntlet where failure means death. Cojax is a young soldier desperate to prove himself in a society that sees him as expendable.

The Numberless have fallen, and in their absence, the city begins to fracture. A power vacuum spreads through the ranks, tempting even the most honorable Validated as political factions rise and collapse in violent succession, dragging the city into chaos. Cojax and Jessica see what others refuse to face. While the city turns inward, consumed by ambition and control, a far greater threat advances beyond the Wall. The Decamont are coming—and they will not stop until everything is erased.
