The Rise
In 1962, Dr. Ryan Cartwright was on the scientific and altruistic path to find a way for humans to sustain life in the event of Mutual Assured Destruction. Little did he know that over the course of the next several years of his life, he would take a well-funded and military journey to the darkest corners of the world—and his mind—as he creates the ultimate weapon for the government and a curse that will plague mankind for the rest of days.
