The Conduit-The violet conduit

The storm didn't just change the weather-it changed us.When a second cosmic surge sweeps across the globe, thousands of ordinary civilians wake up with extraordinary, volatile powers. But for Seth Knight, a former construction worker turned transhuman conduit, the gift is a curse. He is drowning in a billion data-streams, struggling to maintain his sanity while the world descends into chaos.In the shadows, the Meridian Group sees not people, but a new commodity. Led by the ruthless Director Elara Vance, they have begun a systematic harvest of these 'Awakenings' to fuel a black market of cosmic essence. As Elara hunts for the key to her own immortality, ancient structures on the Pacific floor begin to pulse with a terrifying resonance that threatens the very tectonic plates of the Earth.Caught between a corporate machine and an alien threat, Seth must lead a band of outcasts into the deep. From phase-shifting couriers to veteran engineers, the resistance is all that stands between humanity and a forced evolution that could erase the concept of the individual forever.In a race against time and his own fading humanity, Seth must shut down the harvest before the Architects decide that Earth's time has finally run out.
