About

The year 2314. Through decades of gradual tectonic reorganization and the development of artificial crust stabilization technology, the continents were connected into a single supercontinent, which humanity named 'Terra'. Since then, the meaning of national borders began to fade. Finally, the entire world achieved the largest transformation in history, integrating into one. The concept of nations grew faint, and language and culture were unified. People no longer felt the barrier of being foreigners; everyone grew accustomed to an era where they spoke the same language and shared the same culture. After integration, the world's top scientists gathered to establish a massive research institute called 'Scientia'. The research conducted there advanced human civilization at a speed incomparable to anything before. A technological revolution centered on AI transformed the world into the futuristic cityscapes people once only imagined, and civilization reached a stage where space travel beyond Earth was routine. Sports, industry, art, war, politics. In every field, the most ideal tactics, strategies, and theories were perfected. Human imagination could no longer surpass these definitive answers. And finally. Humanity understood all the laws of the world and even unraveled the secrets of the universe. Infinite energy, once considered impossible, became a reality, and eternal life was perfected by human hands. The world cheered. Humanity believed they had finally reached a perfect future. The great researchers who perfected core technologies, including infinite energy, came to be called 'Magnus'. They decided to preserve all the knowledge and history humanity had uncovered for future generations in the deepest part of the research institute, creating a recording device called 'Akashic'. Every truth, technology, and piece of information in the universe discovered by humanity was stored there. People who had attained eternal life enjoyed the future that had previously existed only in their imaginations. Endless time. Endless progress. Endless happiness. ...Or so they believed. But that brilliant time did not last long. There were no longer any unknown territories left in the world. Every question already had an answer, and there was nothing left to explore, achieve, or challenge. Even if one completed something, it was merely a fact that had been discovered long ago. Effort lost its power to move the heart, and achievement lost its joy. People went on journeys, created art, enjoyed sports, and sought new hobbies. However, in the face of eternity, all those pleasures were nothing more than momentary sparks. Hundreds of years. Thousands of years. Tens of thousands of years. Time continued to flow, and boredom grew deeper. No matter what one achieved, the world's knowledge was already ahead of them. New discoveries did not exist, and new dreams vanished. The eyes of people, which once shone with passion and hope, Slowly lost their light within a despair named eternity.
