Synopsis
He wakes to pain and a name that isn't his: N57. Engineered, erased, and expelled, he carries only fragments of a past he doesn't understand—a creator's conflicted gaze, the ghost of a brother with golden eyes, and powers that defy nature.
His journey through a desolate America is one of brutal discovery, both of the world and of the immense, volatile potential within him. Guided by chance encounters and haunted by fractured visions, N57 searches for identity and purpose. But the organization that made him is relentless, and the truth of his existence pushes him beyond the limits of sanity and form.
When N57 is irrevocably broken, two forces emerge from the ruins of one life. One seeks to purify the world through annihilation; the other struggles to build a future from love and loss.
Their collision is inevitable.
N57 is a profound and violent exploration of free will, the nature of good and evil, and whether a being forged in trauma can ever truly choose its own destiny.
