Full Description
Fresh out of university and drowning in student debt, Johnatan Dorenev sees only one path forward: enlist in the Military. Promised security, structure, and a future for his family, he joins Zealotry — the towering military-industrial force of a decaying futuristic world.
What he finds is not order.
What he finds is not safety.
What he finds is blood, fire, and silence — the silence that follows when friends die and cities scream.
Thrown into a war against terrorism, corruption, and something far older than mankind, John is joined by a drill sergeant who refuses to die, a medic too kind for this world, and a band of broken soldiers, each running from something. Together, they descend into the collapsing layers of Builderville — a city being devoured by war, parasites, and gods that don't belong.
As the horrors mount and reality begins to twist, John must ask himself:
Is this really survival? Or just another loop?
