The world is nearly uninhabitable. Determined to fix this problem, a scientist has been working for years on perfecting a solution. But, her solution is slightly different than most. Instead of going to the root of the problem, the Earth itself, she modifies people to be able to survive.
However, what happens when a scientist is consumed by their own curiosity? How many lives will she ruin? How many has she already hurt?
One of her experiments, Malachi, is placed back into the world after years of isolation and is forced to try and fit it with society. Unaware of how many problems the 'jobs' she has him perform will affect his life, he happily accepts.
Then, one fateful night changes everything, for better or for worse.
