He was the key to a perfect world. And its greatest threat.

Aethelburg is a city of perfect peace. Its citizens are content, its streets are calm, and conflict is a forgotten memory. But for Mack Evans, a data analyst drowning in the grey monotony of his own life, that peace is a prison.

After a series of unsettling coincidences, he uncovers a horrifying truth: a clandestine project has wired the city's population to his own brain, making him a living broadcast tower for human emotion. His joy brings the city bliss; his despair spreads like a plague. He is the silent maestro of five million souls.

Declared a hero by the project's ruthless architect, Julian Croft, Mack is told he has ended human suffering. But he knows the truth—he is a hostage. His own mind is the cage, and one moment of anger could shatter the world.

To break free, he must weaponize the very humanity the system sought to erase. His rebellion won't be fought with guns, but with waves of memory and feeling. The key to liberation lies not in silence, but in unleashing the beautiful, chaotic, and dangerous symphony of what it truly means to be human.
