About
The world collapsed the day the System activated. The sky tore open, cities fell to ruin, and millions froze in stasis. Only a few awakened classes and abilities — to fight, to die, and to return. Artyom Sokolov was never meant to be a hero. But his unique ability, the Last Word, rewinds time every time he sacrifices himself for another — at the cost of his own memories. Now, as a Scribe wielding a Quill that rewrites reality, he searches for others like him. His mission: seal the Rift and stop the Devourers — ancient beings that hunger for pain. Together with Marina, a swordswoman who foresees death; Andrey, a brilliant outcast who hacks the System; Viktor, a former assassin seeking redemption; and Yuna, a girl who holds time itself in her hands, Artyom journeys across a shattered Russia. From Moscow to the Urals, from Lake Ladoga to Petersburg, he must unite seven Scribes, uncover the secret of the First Author, and decide whether to write the world's final chapter — or leave the book open forever. Because the true story begins not with Chapter One, but with Chapter Zero. The chapter where they are all still alive.
