It begins as a mere flicker above the vast, indifferent Pacific, an unsettling anomaly witnessed by a seasoned pilot—a whisper of the impossible that quickly escalates into a global phenomenon. Governments scramble to understand, to control the narrative, but the truth is far more staggering than any could have conceived: humanity is under the silent, pervasive Gaze of an ancient, incomprehensible intelligence. Their "Echoes" dance in our skies, ethereal and inexplicable, while their "Resonance" hums a subtle, almost imperceptible tune in the very fabric of spacetime itself.
Dr. Silas Vance, a brilliant physicist once disgraced for his radical theories about these otherworldly observers, finds his life's work terrifyingly vindicated. Now, he’s thrust into the unwelcome spotlight, a reluctant oracle tasked with explaining the inexplicable to a world reeling from ontological shock. His theories of "Echo Tunnels" and "Watchers" who engineer reality itself become the only framework to grasp the sheer scale of the entities observing Earth.
