Arcstream: False Start #1 Overview
Arcstream: False Start #1 ignites a brand-new Rippaverse® saga, following Zephyr Arland—a gifted young speedster caught between extraordinary potential and devastating consequences.
At North Florespark High, Zephyr is already ahead of everyone else. On the track, in the classroom—everything seems effortless. But beneath that effortless speed lies a dangerous truth: every time he pushes himself, his body begins to break down.
Still, he can't stop.
Because when lives are on the line, standing still isn’t an option for him. And after one fateful moment places him at the center of a growing crisis, Zephyr becomes something he never intended to be—a variable.
Watched. Tracked. Baited.
Lurking behind the scenes, powerful figures with their own agenda begin to close in. They see what Zephyr could become—and more importantly, how he can be used. With carefully crafted promises of control, relief, and purpose, they offer him the one thing he’s been chasing: the ability to save others without losing himself.
But in a city where power is regulated and vigilantism is forbidden, every shortcut comes with a cost. And every deal has strings attached.
Driven by his need to help—and blinded by the belief that he can handle it—Zephyr makes a choice that sets everything in motion. A choice that begins not with triumph… but with a false start.
