PlotIn the near future, a physicist named Will Porter is recruited by a powerful corporation called Alterplex to work on a groundbreaking energy experiment that could solve the world's energy crisis. The company has developed a parallel universe known as "The Echo," which is designed to siphon unlimited energy to our world. Will is tasked with transporting a crucial device known as the "Redivider" to The Echo, ensuring the stability of both dimensions. However, things go awry, and he finds himself caught in a chaotic, war-torn version of his world, where he is hunted by rebels and Alterplex's security forces alike.
As Will navigates through the dystopian landscape, he pieces together the truth behind Alterplex's intentions, realizing the devastating impact their actions have on The Echo's inhabitants. Struggling with his own moral compass, he must decide whom to trust and how far he will go to save not just his family, but two entire universes.
