LONDON 2186 On Saturday, May 20th, 2186, Jani Joutsen has her immersive implant forcibly removed, and her friend Pierre has his broken, in a seemingly motiveless bar fight during a normal alcohol and drug fuelled evening. With no connection to the wire, the pair are contacted by a mysterious fugitive criminal offering assistance, but the situation quickly deteriorates, and the three are caught in a race for survival against the police and the black market. Fleeing to a Luddite community, to find the broken scientist who may be able to restore some order to their lives, the increasingly dangerous situation leads Pierre to question his loyalty to his friends, his secretive love for Jani, and whether any of it is actually happening at all.
