In the future, all matters of life are regulated. Attempting to curb the rampant social problems that plague our cities, the government has put restrictions on free expression. Unfortunately for those in power, you can't stop the creative impulse completely: Artists are born, not made. Skye is a young woman with a yearning to paint, to put the pictures she sees in her head on canvas. It's tough for her, though, having to work in secret, since she already hides other secrets in her young life. Birth defects have left Skye unable to survive without cybernetic enhancements. Physically, she is as much a machine as she is a human being. Unbeknownst to her, she is also one of three keys-a trio of exceptional people who possess an unnaturally high latent reservoir of knowledge and power. This puts Skye on the radar of an underground youth movement to put freedom of expression back in the hands of the people, and they want to get her involved before the government figures out the skills she possesses. But has anyone stopped to ask Skye what she wants?
