This was a fun dystopian read!
The world has turned against humanity- and for generations those that survived reside in The Tower. It is a safe haven for those who are content to follow the rules, but a prison for those who dare to question authority.

Everyone in The Tower is fitted with a wrist cuff that shows how dedicated you are to Scipio- the authoritarian AI that monitors everything and everyone. If you are a 10 you can basically get away with anything, and everyone treat you with respect and deference. However, if you are anything under a 7 you are meet with a dismissive attitude- and below a 5....your met with suspicion and derision.

The numbers are determined not only by your attitude, but even negative thoughts and sadness can drop your number. Everything is monitored. What would you do if you couldn't even keep your feelings to yourself? If negative thoughts, and even just asking questions can cause you to lose everything? Your friends, family, and home. I'd be screwed.
