The world still believes in accidents.
Marek knows better.

In the near future, power no longer flows through governments, armies, or corporations alone. It moves through data, quietly, continuously, and with mathematical precision.

Marek is the architect of that power.

His AI systems map the digital exhaust of billions of lives: transactions, movements, relationships, fears, desires. From that ocean of signals, he designs “Vectors”, vast chains of micro actions that, when released into the networked world, bend markets, destabilize governments, and redirect history without a single visible command.

To his clients, he is indispensable.
To the public, a ghost.

But when a routine engagement exposes patterns even his own models cannot explain, Marek is forced to confront a dangerous possibility: that the systems he built to bend human behavior may have cost him his daughter.

As invisible wars begin to unfold across financial markets, social movements, and private lives, Marek must decide whether he is the engineer of the future, or merely another variable inside it.

The Vectorist is the first novella in a speculative-fiction series exploring how control evolves in a world where influence is programmable, truth is malleable, and free will has become a design parameter.
