The Runic System
In the year 2095, humanity survives on the ashes of a ruined world.
Decades after a devastating nuclear war erased half the planet, the remnants of civilization have been forced into a fragile order. The last safe continents—Africa and South America—are ruled by a rigid class system, where the powerful live above the clouds, the wealthy thrive in comfort, and the poor struggle to survive in the shadows below.
Beyond the cities lie the Wastelands—lawless, unforgiving, and filled with things no longer entirely human.
Bran is no hero.
A factory worker from the Bottom Tier, he lives a quiet, predictable life—one he’s learned to be grateful for. He has a job, a home, and just enough hope to get by. In a broken world, that’s more than most.
But everything changes the night he logs into his favorite game:
Runic System.
What begins as an ordinary escape from reality quickly turns into something far more dangerous. A glitch. A message. A symbol that shouldn’t exist outside the screen.
And then… it follows him into the real world.
Suddenly, Bran can see runes—ancient symbols pulsing with power. Words begin to shape reality itself. Fire bends. Space trembles. And something deep within him awakens.
He is no longer just a player.
He has become part of the system.
As hidden forces begin to stir, Bran discovers he is not the only one chosen—and not everyone with power intends to use it for good. The government watches from above, the Wastelands whisper with unknown horrors, and the truth behind the Runic System may be far older—and far more dangerous—than anyone imagined.
In a world built on control, power is forbidden.
But some words… were never meant to be spoken.
And Bran is about to speak them.
