Echoes of the monolith

Long before the events of Volume 1, the tower was already collecting. Volume 0 follows the early days of the people who would later walk the deeper floors — especially a nineteen-year-old Voss who arrives on Floor -1 already owing more than he is worth. These are the first rules, the first debts, and the first pieces taken. Quiet, brutal snapshots of what it cost simply to keep walking before the real descent even began.
