Thrive: Codex (Parts 1 - 5) — Jonathan Yanez

• For the masses who choose to traverse life with heads lowered, the lies are comfortable.
• For the few daring to look closer, the truth will be horrifying.

_________________________________________

Mankind's fate will not be one of simplicity and luxury. Instead it will be an unprecedented experiment of survival played on a communal level. Only those in power will know the truth. Everyone else will be manipulated through a façade of rule and order.

Jordan Shepherd has been given the opportunity of a lifetime. This opportunity will allow her to assume a position of leadership within her city. However, the more she learns, the more questions she will have.

The city's policy of releasing agitators to the unknown beyond the Wall is a false front. It is nothing more than an opportunity to silence the voices seeking to penetrate the veil of lies. Soon Jordan finds her own voice counted among these and she will be forced to make a decision to stand for truth or bend to lies.

Humanity will be led toward division and chaos through influence and control. Jordan's peers, blinded by deception, will desire nothing more than compliance. Freedom in truth is what she will bring them.
