Who owns the world-the ones who built it, or the ones who will inherit it?
In Meridian City, time has stopped. Ruled by the Council of Elders and the eternal President Kaveh, the North Bank is a paradise of automated luxury where the old never retire and the past is worshipped. Across the river, in the crumbling South Bank, the youth are left to starve, locked out of the economy, the internet, and their own future.
For forty years, the Iron Doctrine has kept the peace: Experience is the only merit.
But when a young cleaner named Levi is arrested for a simple act of kindness, the silence breaks. Led by Aisha, a reluctant strategist, and Sage, a philosopher of the streets, the youth declare independence. They seize the bridges, cut the power, and form the Republic of Tomorrow.
What begins as a protest turns into a brutal siege. As winter falls, President Kaveh unleashes his ultimate weapon-not just an army, but a terrifying new technology that turns the youth against their own humanity. To survive, the Republic must face a chilling truth: their enemy isn't just a dictator holding onto power. He is a man who has sacrificed his own soul to stop the clock forever.
From the frozen riverbanks to the burning servers of the Palace, Youth Against Time is an epic saga of rebellion, sacrifice, and the violent birth of a new era.
The Cold War is over. The Generational War has begun.
