Elias deletes nightmares for a living. In the sterile utopia of 2125, history is not written-it is curated. As a cleaner in Sector 4, Elias spends his days scrubbing "Causal Dissonance" from the collective consciousness. He erases the messy, jagged edges of the 21st century to keep the timeline smooth and the population happy. It is a good life. A safe life. Until the day he finds a story he cannot bring himself to destroy. It is a forbidden archive from the dark times, a raw nerve of hope and suffering that violates the Citadel's *Manifesto of Maturity*. By saving it, Elias commits a crime against the narrative itself. Hunted by the Architect Lyra and the very system he helps maintain, he acts on a dangerous theory: that humanity is not a child to be coddled, but an adult ready to face the dark. In a world where stories condition reality, the truth is the most dangerous weapon of all.
