Mother's Wrath

The gates of the facility do not open for the living; they open to swallow them. Behind concrete walls and razor wire, a new kind of prisoner waits-the "Unauthorized Duration," those whose very existence has become a political liability.

James is a man caught between two worlds: the mechanical precision of his genius and the heavy, telepathic echoes of a changing humanity. Alongside Rick, an amoral scientist driven by the pursuit of biological breakthroughs, James navigates a landscape where death is no longer an inevitability, but a choice-and a commodity. As they develop the Mannacine strains to combat aging and decay, they inadvertently trigger a revolution that rewrites the laws of nature.

But progress comes with a devastating price. As life extends indefinitely, the world begins to fracture under the weight of overpopulation, resource depletion, and the emergence of a new, powerful elite. When an unknown force begins altering humans with unauthorized treatments, James finds himself thrust into a struggle for the very soul of the species. To protect the future, he must confront the terrifying reality that immortality may not be a gift, but a cage.

In a world where even thoughts are no longer private, how much of your humanity are you willing to sacrifice to live forever?
