PERSISTENT: An Origin Story of the HUM($16.99Value)

Description

What if the world you experience isn't the world that exists? What if death isn't an ending, but maintenance? What if someone has been feeding on human fear for centuries, and the only thing standing between them and forever is a handful of people who can't stop hearing a sound no one else can detect? PERSISTENT is the origin document of the Dark Index Universe. Assembled from recovered materials of unknown origin, it traces the arrival of an ancient cosmic entity called Sog Ruth', the construction of a perceptual overlay over human reality, and the first humans who refused to reset cleanly. From the witch who became a node in the simulation, to the government program that discovered children could see through the seam, to the operatives who move through the system without belonging to it, PERSISTENT is cosmic horror meets government conspiracy meets simulation theory. For readers of House of Leaves, the SCP Foundation archives, and anyone who has ever felt like they remembered something they were never supposed to know. Part of the Dark Index Universe. Connected to the HUM series, nominated for Best Sci-Fi Short at the LA Fantasy Film Festival.
