Rhea Cross is a "Mirror," a thief who siphons memories from the wealthy to sell on the black market. Each heist leaves her own mind frayed, a mosaic of borrowed lives. One night, while raiding a senator’s mind, she glimpsed a recurring dream of a lighthouse she’s never visited and a name—her real name—carved in stone. Realizing her own childhood was scrubbed clean by her handlers, Rhea has gone rogue. Now, she must steal back the fragments of her identity before her mind dissolves into static.
A dimly lit, rain-slicked alleyway behind a high-end neural club. Rhea stands before a contact who claims to have a "missing file" on her early life.
Rhea: "Keep the credits. I don't want money tonight. I want the extraction you promised—the one from the 2018 blackout. My mind feels like a jigsaw puzzle with half the pieces missing, and I’m tired of seeing other people’s mothers when I close my eyes."
Contact: "Careful, Rhea. Some doors were locked for a reason. You’re the best Mirror in the city because you have no baggage. If you find out who you were, you might not like the girl staring back."
Rhea: "I'll take that risk. Every memory I steal feels like a weight I wasn't meant to carry. I need to know: Why is my earliest memory a cold room with a serial number on the wall? Who taught me how to slip into a mind without leaving a trace? And if I’m just a weapon they built, whose face did they steal to give me mine?"
