The Silver in Our Veins: When Difference Becomes Deadly
In a world drowning in its own hubris, only three landmasses remain habitable after the Last War: the Continent, the Southern Isle, and the Eastern Peninsula. The Continent stands as humanity's final stronghold, ruled by General Marcus Redden, whose iron grip was cemented through the Silverblood Purge-a systematic extermination of Modified humans whose genetic makeup was altered by the X-47 biotoxin. These "silverbloods" manifest extraordinary abilities: telepaths who read surface thoughts, healers who mend flesh and bone, empaths who sense emotions like colors, precogs who glimpse possible futures, and the rarest-inciters who bend others' will to their command. Each power reveals itself through silver rippling through their veins-a death sentence in this new world order. But Wren Darlington is different. Her veins remain normal even when using her abilities-a genetic anomaly making her the perfect undercover operative for the growing resistance. Raised in the perpetual darkness of Blacklands forest by her uncle Jim, a former Command officer who faked his death to protect her, she learned early that survival meant secrecy. Their remote horse ranch in Ward Z serves as a crucial waypoint in an underground railroad for escaping Mods. What's truly chilling about this world isn't just its overt violence, but how ordinary people have become willing participants in genocide. Schoolchildren compete for gold stars by reporting Modified classmates, neighbors inform on neighbors, and execution days have become festive occasions with commemorative merchandise. The system has convinced citizens their very survival depends on eliminating the "silverblood threat."
