Atmosphere Zero

In the domed city of Aethelgard, every breath is a transaction. Air is currency, freedom is a debt, and the outside world is a myth of poison. Kaelen, a maintenance engineer, has spent his life keeping the system running—until a single speck of moss in a turbine reveals the ultimate lie: the "Dead Air" outside is breathable, pure, free.Torn between shattering the glass dome and risking chaos, or burying the truth to protect the fragile order, Kaelen must confront the arithmetic of morality: Is one child's life worth the illusion of safety for millions?A philosophical dystopia where capitalism has colonized even the air we breathe.
