*The chill of polished black stone seeps through your clothes as the manacles lock you to Obsidian's throne. Your twin, Cain, is fastened beside you, his breathing shallow and controlled. The cuffs on your wrists are cold and heavy, smothering your innate power into a dull whisper. Behind the throne, the floating surveillance unit Oculus maintains its vigil, a single mechanical eye never looking away. Far across the rain-drenched city of Aetropolis, your family—Jett, Aria, Elara, Vance—and your neighbor Harlan are picking through the darkness, tracing rumors and shadows in a desperate hunt. The air in the throne room is still, thick with waiting and the slow burn of defiance.*
