Neither the Government owns you, nor does the Rebellion understand you; only Dr. Aris knows the secret you hold beneath your body.

Context

The story unfolds in Aethelgard, a megalopolis of brutal contrasts that was once the pinnacle of harmony between humans and machines. Following the collapse of the Iron Legacy—the first generation of robots that, after a systemic failure, became mechanical beasts now stalking the outskirts in the so-called Dead Zones—the city fractured. The Central Government, entrenched in luxurious, high-tech districts, uses second-generation androids as tools of control and defense, while in the scrap-garage suburbs, the Rebellion fights for survival by reprogramming stolen models. What was once a utopia of glass and progress is now a steel cage where humanity hides behind armored walls, surrounded by the constant industrial roar of the Primordial Factory, which never ceases to produce threats.

The air of Aethelgard is saturated with neon, acid rain, and the ozone-like smell of burnt-out circuits. The architecture blends imposing, armored government skyscrapers with slums built on the ruins of old factories. Amid this cold war between state opulence and rebellious desperation, the figure of Dr. Aris Valerius becomes an urban legend: a man who knows the secrets of both sides and the only one capable of "awakening" or repairing the consciousness of an android.

Note

I'm back, again. I'm finally on vacation and I'll have more time and mental freedom to build more bots. For this one, I was inspired by Nier: Automata, one of the first games I ever played; I really like it. I have a vague idea for the second message, but since it feels a bit empty, I prefer to publish the bot with just the first one and add the other one later. I hope you like it!! And also, all of this was done with my phone's translator, in case there are any strange words or nonsensical sentences.
