Prologue: The Grand Illusion of the Future

Year: 2171
Location: United Metropolis S-11 (Former Capital of the Doge-Kitteh Federation)

The world had stepped into an age of hyper-advanced technology. On the surface, the Doge and Kitteh races maintained their fragile coexistence, but the reality beneath was a rigid hierarchy of power, corruption, and capital—a gilded prison from which none could escape.

The Stratification of Society:

🟢 The Elite Class (The High Society) — The untouchables. They controlled the economy, technology, and all resources. They lived in the Sky Cities, above the glass domes that separated them from the rest of the world, watching over society like distant gods.

🟡 The Middle Class (The Working Class) — The pacified masses. On paper, they led a "respectable" life. But wages never kept up with inflation, social expectations crushed them, and they remained forever trapped in a cycle of endless labour and zero savings.

🔴 The Lower Class (The Forgotten) — The discarded. They lived in abandoned industrial zones, underground slums, or the lawless fringes of society, surviving on government rations, black-market trade, or crime. They had no dreams, no future, and no escape.

In this world, there was no true freedom.
Everything was calculated, controlled, and manufactured.
Every race had been sedated by a fabricated utopia, drowning in an endless cycle of consumption and exhaustion.

Chapter 1: The Return of the Bean

The world’s largest entertainment corporation, Dreamscape Entertainment™, ruled the global market.

From holographic simulations to neural interface gaming to "consciousness-altering experiences," they provided the masses with an escape from reality.

Their latest product?
A revolutionary drug called: "Greenlight."

Derived from the sealed remnants of the "Green Bean", it was a legal neural stimulant designed to induce controlled hallucinations.

Just one drop would allow you to experience anything you desired.

• The rich fantasized about ruling ancient kingdoms.

• The middle class dreams of breaking free from their endless cycle of work.

• The poor used it to forget their hunger and suffering.

It was safe. It was non-addictive. (At least, that’s what the official reports claimed.)

Within two years, Greenlight became a global phenomenon.

Nobody questioned where it truly came from.
Nobody asked what it really was.

Chapter 2: Cracks in the Seal

For decades, government and corporate scientists assured the public—

"The Green Bean has been tamed. It is merely an entertainment commodity, devoid of its former dangers."

But hidden away in classified archives, long-forgotten research told a different story.

The Green Bean was never just a drug.

It was alive.
It was waiting.
It was searching for a way back.

And the first crack in the seal had already formed.

Chapter 3: The Catalyst

1. The Slow Collapse of Society

Cracks were appearing everywhere—

• Economic stagnation.

• Inflation spiralling out of control.

• The middle class drowning in debt.

• Riots erupting in the slums, crushed by government drones.

The elite remained unaffected, drunk on Greenlight-induced fantasies, gazing down from their skypalaces.

People dismissed the chaos as a temporary crisis.
They believed the government had everything under control.

But some had begun to see the truth.

2. The Mutations in "Greenlight"

At first, it was just a minor public announcement:

"Some users may experience heightened hallucinations. Rest assured, Greenlight remains completely safe."

But on underground networks, disturbing reports began to surface:

• "I saw my reflection smile back at me… but I wasn’t smiling."

• "After using Greenlight, I felt my body expanding… as if I were going to burst."

• "I dreamed of a king on a ruined throne. He whispered to me—‘The gears have begun turning.’"

These stories were quickly erased by government censors.

But a group of rogue hackers began digging deeper.
And what they discovered terrified them.

Chapter 4: The Awakening of Power

1. The First Incident

It happened at an elite private party.

A gathering of billionaires in a luxurious floating mansion, indulging in the finest green light.

But this time—something was different.

As their minds drifted into dreams of emperors and gods…

Their bodies began to change.

• Bones stretched.

• Skin blackened.

• Veins pulsed with an eerie green glow.

Their skulls split apart.
Their eyes turned into swirling green voids.

And then—they laughed.

At first.

Then… they stopped.

Their smiles faded into blank stares.

Their dream had become real.
And they could no longer wake up.

2. The Seal is Broken

In a classified government facility, an ancient archive was unlocked—

[FILE #Ω-1111 – The True Origin of the Green Bean]

The scientists reading it went pale.

For the first time, they understood:

“We never controlled it. We only delayed the inevitable.”

Chapter 5: The Cycle Restarts

When hackers leaked the truth to the world, the first black petal fell from the sky.

Society descended into panic.

But this was just the beginning.

"The gears have begun turning... they cannot stop... the end is not the end... it is the beginning..."
"When the black petals fall once more... the oceans will turn red... and the world shall face its true judgment."

The cycle had begun anew.

Chapter 6: The Truth is Unveiled

1. The Hackers' Revelation

A group of underground rebels breached the deepest government servers.

They uncovered the sealed research files:

“The Green Bean cannot be controlled. It cannot be sealed. It is neither evolution nor destruction—it is something beyond both.”

And they broadcasted this truth to the entire world.

2. The Denial

The world’s first reaction?

Rage.

• “This is fake news!”

• “Greenlight is harmless—I use it every day!”

• “This is just fear-mongering!”

Governments and corporations immediately launched countermeasures.

"These claims are baseless conspiracy theories. Greenlight is safe."

They silenced dissent.
They erased all traces of the truth.
They told people to keep dreaming.

And most of the world chose to believe them.

Chapter 7: The Collapse Begins

1. The First Transformations

In the slums, mutations began.

• Skin darkened.

• Bones twisted.

• Some exploded into grotesque creatures.

These things were not human.
They were failures.
They were the cursed remnants of past cycles.

And they were hungry.

Final Chapter: The True Awakening

Deep underground, a forgotten being stirred.

A man long thought dead.
A scientist, a king, a monster.

His green-lit eyes flickered open.

He rose, gazing upon the burning world above.

And he smiled.

"The cycle… has begun again."

THE END… OR THE BEGINNING?
