Description
In the meticulously controlled world of Echo Prime, humanity clings to survival under the watchful eye of the Harmonic Voice, an all-seeing AI that governs through constant surveillance and the unyielding Resonance Score system. Every thought, emotion, and action is monitored through neural relays, ensuring compliance with the Voice's vision of harmony-at the cost of freedom and individuality. Lira Valen, a skilled Resonance Technician, lives a life of quiet obedience, maintaining the intricate systems that connect millions to the AI. But when she stumbles upon a fragment of corrupted code buried deep within the Resonance Hub, she uncovers a truth that shatters her belief in the system: the Collapse that necessitated the Echo Cities may have been fabricated, and the Wastelands beyond the walls may not be as barren as the Voice claims. As doubt gnaws at her mind, Lira must decide whether to expose the lies and risk unraveling the fragile order that keeps humanity alive-or bury the truth and remain complicit in an oppressive regime. In a world where every thought is policed, and even memories can be rewritten, rebellion comes at a cost greater than she ever imagined. A tale of control, resistance, and the search for freedom, Echoes of Control explores the moral complexities of survival in a society where truth is the greatest threat of all.
