Tower of Transcension

Astraeus was just a normal guy living his day to day job when the tower arrived. The tower was a catalyst that united them to the entire universe, As the tower arrived, everyone on Earth had a choice to join the trials, the goal? To evolve beyond their current self, something more then just their innate species. Each trial evolves a person, awakens dormant abilities that have been inside them all their life.  Some die in their trials while others succeed and come out superhuman. What will Astraeus choose? Will he join the trials, or remain ordinary?
