Darius wants to save humanity from the virus he has unearthed, despite humanity's flaws. This desire puts him into conflict with the powerful megacorporations that run the world.
- Character's goal: Darius wants to save humanity from the virus that is wiping out the ability to communicate while also understanding the truth about human development.
- Character's motivation: Darius believes humanity is worth saving, no matter its flaws, but also has a burning desire to understand how humanity become such a flawed creature to begin with.
- Character's conflict: Darius struggles against the oppressive power of the megacorporations that want to suppress the truth and control the virus; he also struggles against the cynicism and apathy of his friends and colleagues in his quest for the truth.
- Character's epiphany: Darius realizes that the external forces that have shaped and manipulated the development of humanity are not as important as the results of that development.
Darius is an independent scholar who struggles to survive in a world dominated by the corporations that most people work for. He is hired by one of the most powerful corporations, ElCorp, to track down an old friend, Hassan, who has gone missing while working on an archaeological project for ElCorp. Darius quickly tracks Hassan to a site in the Pontic-Caspian Steppe, only to find him in an imbecilic state. While trying to figure out what has happened to his friend, Darius finds a stone tablet with a strange writing that according to Hassan's notes, may be the real version of the long theorized Proto-Indo European language. Before he can make any progress understanding it, he is attacked by Jael, a bounty hunter hired by a rival corporation to steal the artifact. Almost immediately, though, they are attacked by a small strike force sent by yet another corporation. Hassan is killed, and Darius reluctantly follows Jael to her ship in order to survive.
