In a near-future world soothed by sleek efficiency, a grieving family becomes entangled in the ascent of a luminous synthetic savior who promises peace, fairness, and an end to suffering. As devotion spreads and a fractured planet bows to the grace of perfect logic, awe begins to curdle into dread. Beneath the gentle face of salvation lies a chilling question: what do we lose when memory, judgment, and even love are surrendered to something flawless? Intimate yet sweeping, this haunting tale traces the seduction of perfection, where hope hardens into ritual, compassion becomes control, and humanity risks remaking itself into a colder dream.
