The World Wakes Wrong

It starts with six cities, all at once. In London, Tokyo, Lagos, São Paulo, Chicago and Sydney, throughout the world, time and place become irrelevant. The Atom Eater's clones don't announce themselves, they simply appear and begin: no demands, no warnings, just destruction. In mere hours, they rampage through thousands - infrastructure and emergency systems collapsing from city to city. Each feeds back worse data than the last. Both factions receive alerts at the same time, causing Vane to call a full assembly for the first time in 4 years. Mordred accepts. At first, neither speaks to the other. In a safehouse on the outskirts of East London, Liam sits with Lilith's head in his lap and watches the clone signal spread across his network's global map. He planned for this. He planned for all of it. He watches it happen and says nothing.
