The long road to stable continues. Everything would be fine, and it seems the path is close to the finish—except that another reincarnation of Metis throws him onto a mysterious “fifteen’er.” As it turns out, not all clusters are the same—there are some among them that are quite unordinary.

Always and in all times—there is only one principle that keeps you alive on the Continent: trust the System, but don’t fall short yourself. So in just five minutes, not as a “zero”—he’ll have to show everything he’s capable of, and even more. And whether the skills the System gave him will help him—now that’s a big question.
