Description
People everywhere are connected to each other by advanced technology. Just a pair of contacts or glasses is all it takes to be able to talk to anyone, anywhere, anytime. A world where everything is online, and most people are never disconnected. Capitalism thrives; all you have to do is think to have something ordered and sent to you. Here, in their electronic reign, your attention span is their coin. The better your attention span, the more you can buy, and the higher up in society you are. The problem? Everyone is addicted to the tech. The fast grab, instant gratification of it all, the constant flow of dopamine. Even those born to company CEO's have lost their ability to keep their attention on something for long periods of time, and the advertisements are always there. Incessant, constant, unending, unregulated. The same technology that everyone loves has become a plague that most people don't seem to care to notice. Except for Proxy Quartz, from upbringings so humble that she never had this technology until she was in high school. She grew up on books and computers that would be considered ancient by her peers, and most importantly, fresh air. She single handedly skyrocketed her whole family into riches simply by having such a long attention span. But she is bored of the technology, and boredom is the bane of this world's existence.
