The Pod
Imagine a world where your life is a 24/7 performance, and your survival depends on the number of people watching. This is the Grid, a sterile, globe-spanning city where attention is the only currency that matters. Now, imagine a parallel Earth: a feral, untamed wilderness where hunter-gatherer tribes shapeshift into totem animals to survive.
The Pod begins when a burnt-out corporate drone from the Grid hacks into the consciousness of his alternate self—a proud hunter from the Wild. This forbidden contact triggers a cosmic law that violently swaps their bodies and lives. The drone is thrust into a world of tooth and claw, while the hunter is trapped in a chrome cage, forced to perform for a social score he doesn't understand.
As they fight to reclaim their shared identity, their connection causes reality itself to break down. The sterile hum of data corrupts the forest’s sounds, and the city’s polished chrome flickers with digital static and textures of the wild. They've only traded one prison for another, leaving them to wonder if true freedom can be found not in either world, but in the glitch between them.
