In the year 2124, humanity has reached a state of peace and prosperity, where technology seamlessly enhances life, and the planet thrives in harmony. But to understand how the world arrived at this point, the past must be examined-the tumultuous 21st century, a time of revolution, struggle, and transformation.
Aurelia, a historian at the Central Academy, is tasked with documenting this pivotal era for future generations. As she delves into digital archives, personal diaries, and old media footage, she uncovers the complex and often contradictory world of the 2020s. Amidst climate crises, technological advancements, social movements, and political unrest, humanity grappled with profound challenges. Yet, the people of this time-despite their struggles-showed immense resilience and hope for a better future.
Through Aurelia's journey, the story explores themes of connection, division, progress, and the price of technological advancement. As Aurelia watches the struggles of the past unfold, she must decide how to present this history to the future: as a tale of failure or as a story of the immense potential that shaped the world they now inhabit.
Will she tell the unvarnished truth about the hardships that built their utopia, or simplify the story for those who will never understand the depths of the past?
