Ward by Wildbow continues the story begun in Worm, following a new protagonist in a post-apocalyptic world where superpowered “capes” are trying to rebuild uneasy systems of law and heroism. Two years after global catastrophe, former supervillains and monsters are granted second chances as heroes, while records of their past crimes have been lost along with the institutions that once contained them. A fragile ex-patient of destroyed parahuman asylums, deeply marked by trauma, must navigate this unstable landscape of truces, compromises, and psychological strain. As tensions rise and the fragile peace erodes, she is forced to decide how far she will go to support a so-called new golden age or to resist the darker future she sees forming.
