DIVIDI

After a virus spread across the globe, millions of humans and animals experienced genetic mutations. Fortunately, for Arden Ismene and her community, Visor, the world's largest pharmaceutical company, has created the Safe World in order to maintain a world free of danger. Viruses, catastrophic weather, and illnesses of all kinds are almost nonexistent within the protective barrier of the Safe World.


Over the years, the protective wall has slowly deteriorated, leading to a rapid increase in the number of attacks from the mutated beings. As everyone in her community starts to fear the unknown, Arden can't help but feel that something is off. Determined to find an answer, she stumbles upon an overwhelming truth that makes her question her own reality.

This story has a theme of transhumanism.

Transhumanism is the position that human beings should be permitted to use technology to modify and enhance human cognition and bodily function, expanding abilities and capacities beyond current biological constraints.
