The void. Infinite, oppressive, unfathomable. An eternal void. And yet, it whispers.

Every two years, at each conjunction, ships rush toward New Gaea, carrying settlers, goods, and the promise of a better future. Ryan Conrad is among them. Not for a mission, nor a quest, but to reunite with his brother after four long years of absence.

In the shadow of Global Control's great decisions, humanity expands, adapts, and relentlessly shapes its destiny. Access to New Gaea's resources has shattered the old order, erasing the hardships of a world once doomed to austerity. But progress comes at a cost, and some are beginning to wonder whether this newfound balance is as stable as it seems.

As Ryan prepares to set foot once more on the most precious of moons, one thing becomes clear: everything has changed. And this journey will be more than just a simple visit.

Where the stars fall silent, the void whispers eternally.

The Android of Atlantis by ProlixRemedy
24 parts Complete Mature
In ancient Atlantis, an expansive and diverse continent that spanned the Atlantic Ocean some 14,000 years ago, the world stood on the precipice of change. For the first time in history, a humanoid, sentient android walked among humans. Ashur Napahu was the first of his kind. Designed using code for military super soldiers, Ashur's loving, scientist mother left him to a world not yet ready for a conscious, self-aware machine. Yet when he meets an Atlantean woman carrying a deep secret and dreaming of realizing her own potential, something awakens within him. He experiences love in its purest and most fragile form, navigating a society that sees him as unnatural. But love, like logic, is not immune to contradiction. As the weight of expectation, prejudice, and fate bears down on him, Ashur must confront the limits of his existence... and of those around him. Atlantis may have mastered the engineering of sentient machines, but it has yet to master the wisdom required to coexist with them. Journey into ancient Atlantis--a world where the lines between man and machine blur, and a sentient android dares to ask the most human question of all: What is the meaning of life? ******** This novella was written for the Open Novella Contest 2025, based on Prompt #71: "In a world where artificial beings and humans coexist, one artificial human embarks on a journey to understand love and emotions-only to uncover more than expected."
