Nuada Kirie, a neuroscientist and consciousness researcher for the World Health Organization, dedicates his career to assimilating individuals with severe mental trauma into a surveillance-driven society—pioneering methods to manipulate or obliterate consciousness for collective stability. His discoveries unravel ethical quandaries as they demand the suppression of free will, fracturing his family bonds and conscience.

Thirteen years before the central conflict, he flees from his daughter Tuan and her mother following Tuan’s suicide attempt, unable to morally justify his work’s implications. In Baghdad, he retreats into a covert high-security lab, resisting institutional demands to militarize his research. There, he uncovers a method to eradicate consciousness entirely—a breakthrough hijacked by shadow entities to engineer worldwide suicidal outbreaks.

When Tuan investigates the crisis years later, Nuada resurfaces, confessing his inadvertent role in the catastrophe. Their fraught reunion culminates in his redemption: intercepting an assassin’s bullet meant for her, a sacrifice that reconciles his fractured identity as both a detached innovator and a remorseful father. Though their relationship remains scarred by abandonment, his death crystallizes an unspoken allegiance to her survival, contrasting clinical ambition with residual paternal duty. His legacy endures as a cautionary duality—revolutionary science entangled with apocalyptic fallout.
