Freedom or safety? John never thought he'd have to choose. The monsters aren't stopping. If anything, they're getting stronger — and the survivors sheltering in Whitehorse know it. Then a new alien faction arrives with an offer: protection from the chaos, in exchange for their freedom and future. For most survivors, it's an easy answer. But John has fought too hard, lost too much, and Leveled through too much rage to hand over humanity's future to a new set of masters. The problem? He's not just choosing for himself anymore. Whitehorse is watching. And whatever John decides, everyone inside those walls lives or dies by it.
