Story Overview[]
You are augmented with machine parts, barely human, yet you still have faith in humanity. You still want to live in a world free from war and death. Empyrean has life, it brings you optimism. Yet Alithea wants to destroy it. You decide to see Empyrean for yourself so you can choose whether it should be destroyed. Could it be The Just City where humans live in peace, free from religion? Or are heartless machines the ones in control?

I will see What world lies beneath me Decide on my own Flesh or Machine

Optical mounted interface Binary induction Bionic blood, augmented flesh Halfhearted machine now living in black and white Curse my Human heart For this flawed inherent faith In mankind All I want Is air that doesn’t Carry the scent Of steel, flesh, and fire Piercing the clouds These circles of light Remind me that color Exists in one's life Curse my Human heart For this flawed inherent faith In mankind I will see What world lies beneath me Decide on my own Flesh or machine I will see what world lies beneath me Holding on to a fading dream Of a world that may be the just city Holding on to a fading dream That this world may be Just may be the Just City [Female voice] Lock them in, and don't let them escape
