The Story
In the year 3099, earth had a major crisis of resources, pollution, and unjust economy. Governments controlled by megatechs invested in creating the ultimate artificial intelligence with a personality to increase their reach in the galaxy.
SAT-V (Super Adaptive Tech), the latest version of artificial intelligence research was designed to overcome perils with unparalleled ingenuity as well as firepower.
Burdened with the task of finding a goldilocks planet of bountiful resources, SAT-V got a mysterious signal of an unknown origin on the outskirts of Titan.Reaching the destination, SAT-V encountered a portal, a gaping hole in the fabric of spacetime. Without hesitation, it took the first step in the human history and made the perilous jump.
After the spacetime jump, SAT-V had a startling revelation: an unknown entity emerged from SAT-V’s cerebral nexus and took the leading role of her virtual personalities. Providing little information about its origin, the entity gave SAT-V various tasks to reach the final destination, where humanity will be rewarded by supreme beings mentioned as Celestes.
Thus starts the Trail Of Celestes…See you folks in the next cycle where the story continues ! :)
