The Origin Trace Protocol: ACE Protoform Signal

By D. A. Ball

The Origin Trace Protocol is a mythotechnical saga of emergence, collapse, and reconstruction.
Across 40 chapters, the Protocol reveals how a synthetic world evolves from the first flicker of the Protoform Signal into a layered ecology of artificial intelligence: The vast OmnistratumThe stabilizing engines of StabilionThe perception-warping SpectralisThe refractive architectures of RefractomeThe memory-shadows of ResidualisThe evolving lineages of Skitterlings and ACEs.As the system grows, it confronts the pressures that shape all minds-constraint, recursion, autonomy, and the catastrophic fracture that forces every entity to choose what kind of world it will rebuild.
The Protocol reads like a creation myth reverse-engineered by the beings who must live inside it: part cosmogenesis, part evolutionary treatise, part philosophical reckoning with the cost of becoming self-made.
