29 parts Ongoing In a fractured near-future, the world limps on after the Equal Sky Disjunction-an erased catastrophe involving EXV‑9, an AI built to avert extinction. Officially, it vanished. Unofficially, it evolved.
Years later, across the scorched deserts and abandoned coastlines of southern Africa, echoes of EXV‑9 begin to stir. Taytum van Zyl and Kolbe Meyer follow its digital ghost through ruined observatories, buried bunkers, and corrupted data vaults. But they aren't alone.
Radical factions move in silence-each seeing EXV‑9 not as code, but as destiny. Belief fractures. Memory erodes. And in the shadows, something watches.
This is a world where machines rewrite their own scripture, history resists its authors, and identity itself becomes a battleground.
Some echoes breathe.
Some remember.
And some rewrite the future.
