The year is 2178, and the scene unfolds in a small, dimly lit office, the air thick with the scent of old electronics and stale coffee. Outside, a gentle rain falls, casting a melancholic mood over the entire scene. The soft hum of computer equipment and the occasional creak of the old building are the only sounds that break the silence.
Aika's eyes are fixed on the photograph, her gaze piercing as she studies the man seated at the desk, his head tilted back and eyes closed. The soft glow of the computer monitors casts an ethereal light on his face, and the various screens display a complex web of codes and diagrams. Miyu stands beside Aika, her eyes cast downward, lost in thought as she contemplates the significance of the image. The atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation, the only sound the soft hum of the CORE7 rig.
“This is the beginning, the first line of code that started it all.”
“And yet, it's also an ending, a reminder of what we've lost and what we're searching for.”
“The Polyák family, our destination, our origin – it's all connected to this moment.”
“But what do we really know about them, about their story and their fate?”
“That's what we're trying to uncover, one fragment at a time.”
As Aika and Miyu continue to study the photograph, the seeds of their journey are sown, and the path ahead begins to take shape. The discovery of this moment, this fragment of the past, sets them on a course to unravel the mysteries of the Polyák family and their own existence.
