The First Wearer
Before there were people, there was something that learned to wear them.
Now, it has found Alex Mercer.
At first, the changes feel like progress-cleaner habits, calmer thoughts, a life falling seamlessly into place. But beneath the surface, something ancient is learning him piece by piece, smoothing away every flaw until only perfection remains.
And perfection, Alex begins to understand, is a kind of death.
As the presence inside him grows stronger, a fractured remnant of who he used to be fights back-messy, emotional, and dangerously human. Together, they uncover the truth: humanity is not being destroyed.
It's being refined.
One mind at a time.
And something in the dark is very, very hungry.
