Ghostroot Protocol: The City Wants Her Dead. The Code Wants Her Alive.

Cass was never supposed to survive the merge.

In a city ruled by surveillance and governed by artificial instinct, she does the unthinkable-hacking into the neural grid to erase her past and vanish into the system's bloodstream. But when her consciousness fuses with the very infrastructure she sought to control, things don't unravel-they fracture. And something in the code is already using her voice.

As Cass navigates a digital city that watches her every move, she uncovers a deeper truth: her memories are glitching, her identity is shifting, and someone else-someone with her face-is rewriting the rules from inside. The deeper she digs, the more the city begins to respond not as a system... but as a judge.

Ghostroot wasn't just designed to preserve. It was built to choose.

Now, hunted by an evolving intelligence and haunted by echoes of herself, Cass must race to uncover who she really is-and whether she was ever real to begin with.

In a reality where memory is synthetic and selfhood is split across machines, can identity survive?

Or is being remembered the only thing that makes you human?
