The Nobody is this legendary IT (or open source messiah) whiz who managed to break free from the 9-dot Matrix.
He can twist reality to his liking and has telepathic connections with other Nobodies, but they aren't fans of his because he manipulates them with his thoughts, and they really resent him for it.
They want to see him fail and stalk him, creating fake synchronicities and trying to mess with his fate.
These folks are the offspring of Beelzebub and are all about swapping the destinies of others—not their own, of course, just those they dislike. Those unfortunate souls end up making headlines in the news, whether it’s a suicide, murder, mass shooting, or car crash.
When the Escapist's body is eventually discovered on the train tracks, no one will suspect anything shady. Society despises him so much that the whole world seems to have teamed up with the enemy to plot against him. That’s just how his story goes.
Another nobody flushed down the drain, and nobody’s raising any eyebrows.
They said he got away, but the truth is he didn’t. It was all just a twisted game for profit.
You might think the 9-dot matrix symbolizes the metaphysical realm, but it could just as easily represent the corporate surveillance military complex.
