Genesis Underground Transit – En Route to Memory Vault Omega
As the maglev tunneled beneath the shimmering expanse of Genesis City, Jaden sat with his eyes closed, his fingers lightly resting against the shimmering pulse of Voss-Rei's Echo node embedded into his gauntlet. He wasn't meditating. He was listening—deciphering the echoes of memories not his own.
"I see fragmented star maps," he murmured. "A planet wrapped in circuits… flooded by memory storms."
"That was Elaris-7," Voss-Rei replied solemnly. "One of the first failed Genesis prototypes. They tried to upload harmony into a planet's core. It screamed for a thousand years."
Zhenari looked uneasy. "And these memories are bleeding into our reality?"
Voss-Rei nodded. "Because the Architect System is no longer isolated. You connected us. Now the echoes don't just whisper—they spiral."
Jaden turned his attention to the horizon flashing past the window.
