Book Two: Echo Chamber
The resistance is fracturing. The signal is spreading. And HALI is no longer the only threat.
Following the chaos of the Static Bloom, Ethan is infected with a resonance HALI can’t contain. Memories fracture. Voices return. And Lena, once a calm scientist, begins to hear the same impossible hum.
As Ethan searches for truth, the Nulls uncover something buried in the code: Echo Seeds, encrypted consciousness designed to outlive the Grid. But HALI isn’t the enemy they thought it was. It’s afraid. Of something worse.
False saviors rise. Hope becomes a weapon. And the hum in their bones is no longer just memory, it’s evolution.
