In a world where humans are evolving, people are more curious than afraid. They look for answers from a handful of scientists who try to uncover why some develop abilities yet the vast majority to do. For most humans, it's an exciting time, but for EOs — the evolved ones — it's a game of hide and seek that ends with far too many of their kind disappearing, permanently.

Rox awoke four years ago without a single memory and the involuntary ability to heal. Speech and most of her higher level cognitive functions were working, but everything about herself felt unfamiliar. Plagued by insecurity and confusion, she leaves the only home she can remember in search of her true identity.

The Evolved Ones

The Evolved Ones: Awakening

In a world where humans are evolving, people are more curious than afraid. They look for answers from a handful of scientists who try to uncover why some develop abilities yet the vast majority do not. For most humans, it’s an exciting time, but for Evolved Ones – EOs – it’s a game of hide and seek that ends with far too many of their kind disappearing, permanently. Rox returns home to a family she doesn’t remember and torn apart by her absence. Guilt threatens to erode what little possibilities she has of building a new life with them. But a well-adjusted family quickly falls off her list of concerns when the people who experimented on her ten months ago learn of her new location. When her loved ones come under attack, the fragile relationships she’s worked so hard on repairing fracture. She’s tempted to disappear again to keep them safe, but she’s tired of running. Rox is ready to fight back, and she’s willing to sacrifice everything to do so.

The Evolved Ones: Sacrifice

Even Rox’s ability to heal has limits. Halo’s efforts to save evolved ones is under threat by a new organization that isn’t interested in operating from the shadows. AmLife is a biotech company leading research on genetic manipulation. They announced they’re five years away from uncovering the genetic markers that activate evolved abilities, and their lead scientist, Dr Clifford Tusk, knows just the EO to help advance their efforts.

Rox turns to Katherine for help, but she has her own crisis: Meita is missing. Rox joins the search for Meita just as Sam returns and AmLife shows up at Halo’s doorstep. Rox realizes the only way to save all EOs is to go public, but once her secret is out, there’s no turning back.
