"When the machine god breathes, reality trembles."
A massive black mechanical core floats in darkness — the Mahashunya Yantra.
Gears rotate like planets. Steam flows like clouds. Lightning moves through metal veins.
Narration:
Aethrapur was not born.It was built.Not by gods… but by fear.
A boy falls from the sky, through steam clouds.
Narration:
And every machine world needs a sacrifice.
His body burns with black light.
He crashes into a junkyard in Lohgarh.
Metal debris, Steam pipes, Broken
automaton limbs. Silence.
Close-up of his chest — a mechanical heart glowing dark violet.
Heartbeat sound effect:
THUM—THUM—THUM
The boy opens his eyes.
Eyes:
silver irises, black sclera rings.
Boy (whisper):
"…Who… am I?"
Memory flashes:
A girl crying.
A burning city.
A broken temple.
A blood-covered hand.
A voice whispering his name.
Voice: "Kaal…"
He stands up.
He looks at his hands.
Boy:
"This body… doesn't feel human."
Steam sirens echo.
Mechanical guards flying overhead.
Loudspeaker:
"Yantra Sangh patrol unit active. Unauthorized entity detected."
Kaal runs, Steam, Crowded market, Airships, Robotic vendors.
He Collides with a girl.
Books fall.
Devices scatter.
Girl: "Hey! Watch—"
She stops.
Their eyes meet.
Time slows.
Sound fades.
Reality distrortion effect.
Narration:
The first memory anchor.
Girl: "Are you… okay?"
Her name tag:
MIRA VANYA
Kaal (Confused): "Do i know you?"
Mira: "No... but it feels like i do."
Screams.
A distortion tear opens in the air, A shadow creature emerges.
Twisted form, Multiple eyes, Steam body.
People panic, Guards shoots, Bullets pass throught the creature.
Creature attacks a man is pulled into the distortion Mira screams.
Kaal steps forword his chest glows and dark energy leaks form his veins.
Kaal (whisper):
" ...I remember this."
Symbolic inner panel:
A black lotus opens inside his mind.
Text:
Shunya core Synchronization – 3%
Reality bends.
Space warps.
The creature freezes.
Kaal touches the monster it dissolves into black ash.
Silence.
Everyone stares, fear, shock, Guards aim weapons.
Yantra Sangh commander:
"Target identified, Void anomaly class, Capture protocol initiated."
Mira grabs kaal's hand.
Mira:
"Run."
They run into steam alleys.
Airship shadows above.
Sirens.
They stop in a dark alley.
Both breathing heavily.
Mira:
"What are you?"
Kaal:
"I don't know..."
Close-up of his chest Mechanical heart pulses.
Narration:
And thus began the collapse of Aethrapur.
