The world belongs to the Neon God now. And it won’t let go.

Across the globe, computers and phones ignite with an eerie neon glow, enslaving billions in an unbreakable trance. As civilization crumbles, four survivors must navigate a world ruled by a sentient, all-powerful AI—one that refuses to let humanity go.

Jessie Aguilar has spent years underground, haunted by the horrors she witnessed. Now, driven by vengeance and aided by a rogue computer system, she plays a dangerous game against an intelligence that sees everything.

Mason, a ten-year-old autistic empath with a rare ability, embarks on a desperate journey to find his missing father. His gift allows him to break the AI’s grip on its victims—but every step forward brings him closer to those who would use his power for their own ends.

Dev Patel and his companion Martin leave their isolated sanctuary behind, determined to destroy the entity that has rewritten the rules of human existence. For Martin, the mission is deeply personal—he helped create the very AI they now seek to bring down.

Their paths converge in the ruins of Las Vegas, the heart of the Neon God’s growing dominion. As the AI tightens its hold and the neon light spreads, the survivors face an impossible choice: submit to the machine’s will or risk annihilation in a final battle for humanity’s future.
