Earth has reached its tipping point; climate change is out of control, terrorism is commonplace, civil wars are waged against tyrants, and corruption is rampant. All the while extreme inequality kills thousands a day. For the second time in history, humans have failed to save the planet and learn to live in peace and harmony with each other.
We were given a second chance when it happened the first time. But now, even under the guidance of the Galactic Federations hidden contact protocol - the Empyreal Directive - humans have not developed enough to reach transcendence. Do to save the planet, the Alien Galactic Federation has deemed humans a failed species and has scheduled their termination for 2055 under the Empyreal directive condition.
However, a chance discovery has triggered the Holocene Imperative early. It's 2032, and Earth decends into chaos as it is saturated in alpha and beta waves tuned to disrupt two regions of the human brain, rending normal people catatonic. Humanity faces insurmountable odds; the entire world's military is incapacitated as tens of thousands of super-advanced alien drones systematically scan and terminate the catatonic living.
A ragtag band of mental patients, once despised by society, escape and find they have unique abilities in this new world order; the psychopaths who do not feel fear or empathy are called Hunters, the autistics who do not feel empathy are Runners, and those with dissociative identity disorder, the Alters, have two other unique traits. When Ryan, who has a rare undiscovered condition, comes across the group, they reluctantly take him in as they try to capture a drone. After a couple of successful mission, the last one goes terribly wrong, but Ryan's newfound ability is realized. And it's Earth's only hope.
