Welcome, Investor. This chapter outlines the fundamental laws governing the world of The Zero-Point Sovereign. Understanding these rules is the difference between profit and liquidation.
1. The Universal Law: The Market
On May 14, 2022, the planet Earth was integrated into the "Great Nebula Exchange." Physics, biology, and fate were replaced by Market Logic. In this world, everything—from a blade of grass to a human soul—has a price.
2. Basic Terminology
• The System (The Exchange): The invisible administrative force that manages valuations and transactions. It is perfectly logical and entirely heartless.
• Assets: Entities (Humans/Monsters) with positive value. They can buy skills and growth.
• Liabilities: Entities whose maintenance cost exceeds their value. They are prone to Forced • Liquidation.
•Liquidity (Mana/Credits): The energy that fuels existence. If your liquidity hits zero, you are "Deleted."
• The Ledger: The internal record of a person's worth.
3. The Concept of Privatization
Originally, Earth was a "Public Asset" managed by the Board of Sovereigns (The Whales). Following the events of the "First World Dungeon," Earth has been Privatized by an unlisted entity. This means the planet no longer follows the System's global subsidies and must maintain its own overhead.
[Market Tip]:In a world of numbers, never trust a 'Common' valuation. Real profit is found in the glitches.
