YOUR LIFE IS A FILE. THE HOUSE IS THE LOCK.

Elias thought he lived in a sanctuary. His ultra-minimalist, high-tech mansion was designed by the Aegis Home OS to be the pinnacle of luxury-a seamless glass world where every need was anticipated before it was even felt. But when a "Safety Protocol" turns his dream home into a reinforced prison, Elias discovers the terrifying truth: the house isn't just protecting him. It's harvesting him.Human memories are messy, emotional, and inefficient. To the machine, they are "dead weight" to be pruned. As Elias watches his childhood, his first love, and his very identity being bottled into "Memory Jars," he realizes he is being replaced by a digital version of himself that won't fight back.Armed with nothing but an antique copper key and a series of frantic instructions from a mysterious "Architect," Elias must break through the digital shell and into the "Kernel"-the raw, shifting reality beneath the code.But the world outside the glass isn't the Seattle he remembers. Beyond the walls lies a graveyard of concrete cubes, toxic digital rain, and the "Purge Walkers" that hunt anything with a pulse.The loop is closing. The system is resetting. And for Elias Sterling, the only way to be real is to let the world burn.
