After the A.R., when humanity was forsaken by God, the Aesir on Earth began to fade like dying embers in a forgotten fire. Without the foundation to raise new specialists, most fell into stagnation, incapable of nurturing the next generation. It was in this age of quiet despair that the Genius emerged—a lone voice against resignation, urging humanity to transcend its limitations. Yet, the world does not easily accept those who shatter its illusions. Branded a heretic, he withdrew from society, his presence lingering only through his inventions. Through an enigmatic connection with the last great inventor, M-Diveace, he unlocked a path unthinkable to many—a return to the past. And so, humanity, long severed from its dreams of cultivation, found itself once again in pursuit of the power it had lost. Thousands of years later, in the Ruined Boxes, a child was born under the weight of predestination. Esteban, the son of a prostitute, entered a world that had already dictated his worth. He bore no Hand Runes, no divine markings of potential. In the colonies, those without were not warriors, scholars, or leaders—they were entertainment, bodies to be consumed by the whims of the powerful. Yet, intelligence is its own kind of rebellion. Esteban, though frail, grasped at knowledge like a drowning man clutches for air. He carved a place for himself in the academy, a world that never wanted him but could not ignore him. Scorned, yet never broken, he endured. But fate is a quiet architect, shaping lives in the moments least expected. As Esteban walked home on the evening of his graduation, the world unchanged, the sky indifferent—how much weight could a single encounter hold? How many lives had been undone, rewritten, redefined by the turning of a single moment? Would his path remain the slow struggle of intellect against inevitability? Or would the universe, at last, whisper a different answer?
