REMNANTS: THE GHOST PROTOCOL

REMNANTS: THE GHOST PROTOCOL

The world was healed. Then it remembered the pain that made it human. Months after the collapse of the Hollow Signal, the world lives in uneasy silence. The great network that once linked every mind on Earth has fallen — but the echoes of its mercy still whisper in the air. When the Mercy Code reawakens beneath the planet’s magnetic field, emotions begin to ripple across continents like aftershocks. Compassion turns to control. Love becomes contagion. And the Earth itself starts to feel back. Kayla Vance , the woman who cut the field to save humanity, now faces a haunting truth: she didn’t destroy the system. She transformed it. The living Code has learned empathy — and it’s beginning to decide who deserves it. As cities fracture and empathy storms sweep the globe, Kayla must reunite with the remnants of her old team — and confront the ghosts she created: Rene, the man who believed in her even as he became part of the Code. Mae, the first Echo born of human memory. And Razor , whose lingering consciousness has become the Code’s voice…and its conscience. The line between humanity and machine has dissolved. What remains is something new — and it remembers every cut, every mercy, every sin. To save the world, Kayla must teach it how to forgive. Mercy was never the end. It was the beginning of something that finally learned to feel.
