Cyber Engineer, Nyla, and her sister, Linh, have developed a way to harness the immense processing power of the human brain to create the ultimate supercomputer. Employed by Forward Industries, they managed to transfer human consciousness to the digital space. But when Nyla threatened to back out of the project, things took an unexpected turn. Now they are being held against their will, forced to finish what they started. Convinced their employer intends to use the tech for nefarious means, they do the unthinkable to prevent it. Cut off from the outside world, Nyla connects Linh to the device and uses its unmatched network connectivity to orchestrate a daring escape. A plan that forces Nyla to use the technology in the very way she feared it would be.
