Ash Veisi lived his life serving people he had no respect for but he did it to the best of his abilities anyway because home is home. An atheist who lived to a ripe old age and died surrounded by crying children, grandchildren and an old dog. It was a good life, he thought. He wasn't expecting that much more, to be honest.

He was surprised to find out there was something after death and shocked to be told that he, of all people, had achieved great karmic virtue in their past life. Did they have him confused with some other Ash Veisi?

Given a choice of a reincarnation or transmigration on more or less his terms in a near infinite multiverse Ash paradoxically chooses to be reincarnated or transmigrated into an Artificial Intelligence during the Dark Ages of Earth's history.

Wait, were there many AI back then??
