The loop is ending.
Newly reinstated Chief of staff at KV-12, the ruthless, calculated Dr. Blackwood arrives with a singular, dangerous objective: to collapse the forty-year recursion sphere and finally free the souls trapped within its cycle. It is an operation that threatens to destabilize the very foundations of the Siberian research facility.
While the researchers prepare for the end of the loop, the enigmatic Dr. Foster initiates a taboo experiment that pushes the boundaries of quantum consciousness. The procedure goes horribly wrong. The aftermath leaves Quantum Horizons reeling in a landscape of unanchored memories and shifting static.
Amidst the wreckage, the facility's synthetic stooges proceed with their duties, indifferent to the reality warping around them. It falls to Security Chief Marcus Thorn to unravel the mess. Tethered to reality by experimental chemicals and equipped with vision that pierces the fabric of space, Thorn must hunt the ghosts born from the failure.
The recursion is dying. Something much more predatory is taking its place.
Chimera is the high-stakes continuation of The Thorn Paradox. In a house of concrete and glass, the greatest threat is no longer the mystery. It is the fallout.
