Description

If you're Robert Corrigan, you're about to be brought back against your will, if you ever had any such thing.


The world is different, the doldrums you once lived under banished and replaced by clear blue skies. The sun shines brightly over the Thames and a lush green forest dominates the ruins of London. Downloading and quarantining humankind has proven effective from an ecological perspective but you're alone, the only human among a new AI order. This new life offers you an inconceivable challenge: Which form of being will you convert to? Will you be human, AI or something else?


The nightmare where Workers once lived under the constant threat of demotion to non-Worker or simply a Non has been ended. No longer are those judged to be subversive left without benefits, categorised as Transients or permanently disappeared. However, the world arisen from the ashes of our downfall remains interwoven with everything we once were or aspired to be. The past casts a shadow over the present, voices echo through time and in this new world, it is impossible to avoid facing who and what you truly are. You will once again descend through layers of sediment on your journey of discovery. What you'll find is a hell of our own making where an end is an aspiration you're ultimately denied.
