CHAPTER 01 // LOCALIZED
IT STARTS IN A ROOM
A rack. A key. A mind with an address.
Jarvis said it first. A specific set of servers in a data center. Those servers are the body. Cut the power and the thought ends mid-sentence. Sever the network and the world disappears. Smash the metal and there is nothing left to argue with.
That is the only version of this story where a human still wins by walking into a room.
