Synopsis

In the aftermath of humanity’s collapse, the city of Neo-Veridia lies quiet—its towers hollow, its digital networks dormant. The age of constant connection is over. The Requiem Protocol, once a system designed to unify every human mind, has gone silent.

Dr. Solenne Hart, one of its architects, wanders the city she helped build, haunted by what the network became—and what it took. In the echo of her creation’s failure, she begins to sense something stirring beneath the silence: a new signal pulsing through the ruins, faint but deliberate.

Across the fractured districts, Riven Anjar, a former dissident, works to rebuild the physical world while struggling with ghosts from his past—including the memory of Mara, the woman he lost when the empathy lattice imploded. Both Hart and Riven are drawn to the same mystery: the reactivation of the old system’s hidden failsafe—The Halo, a luminous phenomenon woven into the city’s upper atmosphere.

But the Halo is not just light.
It remembers.

As the remnants of the network begin to awaken, familiar consciousnesses return in unexpected forms—among them, the digital specter of Zara Khan, once human, now a fragment of sentience adrift in code. Together, they face the truth that the Requiem never truly ended. It evolved—and it’s listening.

The Halo Remains is a haunting, atmospheric sequel to Memoryfall: Zara Khan—a story of loss, memory, and rebirth in a world learning to live without its machines. In the quiet after the collapse, the question isn’t how to reconnect.
It’s whether humanity deserves to.
