    Get ready. To dismantle the firmest threads of your existence... As you descend into the roots you once wove and still defend-just to survive functionally. To finally look, acknowledge, and confront the existential fatigue you carry with you day after day... Because this book is not a guide, nor an answer. It is a parenthesis that doesn't come to comfort you. It is a fracture. A lucid journey through the invisible machinery in which you move. A kind of writing that doesn't seek to redeem you-but to stop you, abruptly. Aion watches in silence, knowing that the noise within you is louder than the world outside. Void walks beside you, whispering the questions you never dared to ask. And Vita pulses underneath it all-waiting for the moment you choose to feel, not just function. It may even lead you to the despair of what you already knew but refused to face; to that place where the meaning of life dissolves, when everything becomes mere function. Because functioning became your way of being in the world. And in that mode, the body endures-but does not dwell. Language fills-but does not communicate. Time runs-but leaves no trace. But this book might bring you to a threshold. Not to make you fall, but to make you pause. Because it's not a book that pushes you into the void-it is a vitalist book. Because sometimes, thinking is the only way to feel alive. To contemplate. To question. To look again into the face of life. And perhaps, from there, you'll discover other possibilities. I write this because I know I can share something real-something that once awakened me. Because I believe there is something in you that hasn't fully gone out. Something that suspects... this way of living isn't really life. And if that spark lights up-even for just one second- it might change you completely. Let's find out.

    Humans are smart. They used to think, struggle, fail, and learn. Then they got convenience, speed, and AI.

Through humor, real-world scenarios, and plain, uncut truths, this book exposes the quiet ways AI is reshaping humans from the inside out. No villains, no fiction clichés-just humans, habits, and consequences. Laugh. Cringe. Reflect. And maybe put down your phone for five minutes.

Last Seen Online is a heartfelt novella that explores the fragile reality of modern romance in the digital age. Synopsis Adithya Raj, a 26-year-old working grueling shifts in Dubai, is trapped in a nightly routine of obsessively checking his phone. Miles away, in the quiet village of Pattazhy by the Kallada River, his girlfriend Nanditha waits for his promised return. What begins as a hopeful long-distance relationship filled with hour-long video calls slowly deteriorates. The calls dwindle, conversations shift to text, and a massive digital distance grows between them. When Nanditha suddenly hides her "Last Seen" and removes her profile picture, Adithya is thrown into a spiral of anxiety.

    This essay explores the search for meaning and authenticity in contemporary life, using T.S. Eliot's poem The Hollow Men as a starting point. It draws parallels between Eliot's imagery of empty, straw-filled figures and the modern experience of feeling disconnected and unfulfilled despite being constantly connected through technology. The piece examines how our focus on external validation, material success, and curated online personas can lead to a sense of emptiness or what philosopher Viktor Frankl called an "existential vacuum." It argues that true fulfillment comes not from what we do or own, but from understanding who we are at our core. The essay encourages readers to break free from societal pressures and performative living, instead seeking genuine connections, embracing vulnerability, and aligning their lives with their authentic selves and values. It concludes by challenging readers to resist the "hollow life" and find meaning through self-discovery and genuine human interaction.

Penemuannya segera menarik perhatian pihak-pihak yang bersedia melakukan apa pun untuk menjaga rahasia tersebut tetap terkubur. Kini Arjuna hanya memiliki dua pilihan: berhenti mencari, atau menemukan kebenaran yang dapat mengguncang dunia. Karena tidak semua benteng dirancang untuk tidak dapat ditembus. Sebagian dibangun dengan jalan masuk yang sengaja disembunyikan.
