On October 2nd, 2029, Cytek’s massive Nanyte™ production and control hub in Memphis, TN, colloquially named Heaven.X, exploded in what appeared to be a chain-reaction meltdown. The blast irradiated South Memphis, large swaths of western Tennessee, and parts of northern Mississippi. It remains one of the worst bio-tech disasters of the century.
The timing was no accident.
That same day, thousands gathered outside the facility for a protest concert led by a shadowy musical icon known as Inhuman Genome. Their experimental audio — a chaotic fusion of glitchwave, bio-synth, and anti-corporate chant — reportedly interfered with Nanyte systems. Witnesses described Nanytes seizing, swarming, or even melting down.
Strangely, nearly every concert attendee survived the explosion unharmed, leading to wild speculation. Cytek claimed sabotage. Survivors called it liberation. Inhuman Genome has not been seen since.
The Heaven.X Event transformed a corporate stronghold into a forbidden wasteland — and sparked an underground resistance movement now active across the Cyborn zone.
