The Entropy Era II: Prisoners of the Mind

When the anesthetic needle pierced my spine, I realized that the so-called “resurrection plan” was a carefully orchestrated murder. My husband’s consciousness was devouring my brain, and my five-year-old daughter was nothing but a phantom simulated by code. My mother-in-law, a professor of neurosurgery, had spent twenty years turning women into vessels for consciousness. A teddy bear carried a program for maternal love, and the 60% brain-capacity threshold became the final graveyard of ethics. When an ice-blue interface sprouted from my spine, I finally saw the truth behind this technological sacrifice: we were nothing but compiled electrons, giving birth to the end of human civilization in a womb of ones and zeros.
