ERROR: Level 0
In this world, your worth is determined by your Level.
The EVE System assigns every person a Class at birth, deciding their future before they can even speak.
Standing apart from the countless Classes are the NULL, those who were never assigned a Class and remain trapped at Level 0.
Aster Zenith is one of them.
At birth, the EVE System gave her nothing. And the prestigious Zenith family, including her own parents, quickly wrote her off.
Yet Aster spent her entire life believing that the Reassessment might change everything.
At sixteen, every student at the Progression Academy is required to undergo the mandatory ceremony, where the EVE System determines their permanent Class. For most, it is the day they finally discover their path in life.
For Aster, it is her last hope.
But when the ceremony ends, the result remains unchanged.
Aster Zenith: Level 0.
Still NULL.
At Level 0, Aster is an impossibility in a world where Levels dictate status, opportunity, and respect. Her peers give her a nickname, Zero, and as far as Echelon is concerned, that is all she will ever be.
But Aster refuses to accept that her story ends where everyone else's begins.
