A vision of the future between control and freedom
After the fracture, Earth counted fifty million inhabitants: lost souls for whom prayer had served no purpose. Three perfect cities guard the last fragments of humanity.
Because if for some the instinct is to build, for others it is to destroy. Because our nature is to climb over one another, until those at the bottom of the heap suffocate, and those who struggle to the top wave their flag.
Now death is defeated. Three perfect cities — Hibis, Aurelia and Celestia — guard the last fragments of humanity. ElysNet, the artificial intelligence that orchestrates their harmony, promises life without end within its suspended strongholds, administered by the Exalted Beings who, like apostles, make its will manifest. So that never again may a single individual, prey to their own weaknesses, set the world ablaze.
And yet there were those who refused that synthetic life, who would not accept ElysNet's terms. They were called Outsiders, reduced to a wretched existence among the ruins and ghosts of the world they had watched burn.
Joren is a lost young man with the soul of a hero. Serah is gifted, destined to serve ElysNet, yet sharp enough to sense its darker side. Both will seek the truth and, through their suffering, will stand against it.
Perhaps they need only find each other, to shatter the gilded cage that encloses them.

The Origin
The second act of the ElysNet Trilogy.
A journey back to the day fear signed on behalf of humanity—and salvation learned to resemble a prison.
Before the three perfect cities and the Great Accord, there was a dying world.
The year is 2512. Coastal cities are sinking, once-fertile lands have become expanses of salt, and breathable air is now a privilege. Billions of people press against the gates of high-altitude shelters.
Then, one day, a faceless voice delivers two gifts no one asked for to scientist Naira Voss: the SynapCore and the seed of an intelligence destined to grow beyond all human understanding—ElysNet.
As governments collapse, six of the planet's greatest minds are called upon to decide for everyone: entrust the survival of the species to that voice from the darkness, or allow humanity to die free.
More than a millennium later, Serah relives those days through the eyes of those who signed the Great Accord, searching for the precise moment when humanity, convinced it was saving itself, forged its own cage.

The first chapter of a visionary trilogy
"ElysNet" brings together love, philosophy and rebellion, tracing the fine line between control and freedom. It is a powerful, visionary reflection on the role of artificial intelligence in society.
Will AI serve its creators forever, or end up ruling them?
Following the paths of Serah and Joren, the novel explores the boundaries between obedience and truth, between sacrifice and hope, inviting readers to reflect on the future we are building for ourselves.
