Aiden Voss has always been forgotten. People’s eyes slide past him. Cameras glitch when he walks by. Systems erase him mid‑scan, flashing errors like “NO CUSTOMER DETECTED” even while he’s standing at the counter. The world treats him like a ghost—unnoticed, unregistered, unreal. But when a Rift tears open above Mantle City, everything changes. The monsters spilling out ignore the screaming crowds and lock onto the one man no system can detect. A Primal Forceborn hunts him with unnatural focus, and when it dies, its Core rolls toward him with purpose—reacting to him “like a magnet to metal.” The Core doesn’t just bond with him. It fuses into him. Gravity bends at his touch. Pressure builds beneath his skin. Basic Forces flood into him with every kill. Hunters sweep the streets, but their scanners pass over him like he isn’t there. Forceborn track him with perfect clarity. And the Rift pulses every time he draws near. Aiden steps into the chaos alone, unseen, grinding Forces and evolving faster than anyone alive. With every level, every Core, every fight, he uncovers a truth no one else can see: He isn’t forgotten. He’s marked. By the Rift. By the Forces. By something waiting on the other side.
