Mortal Machine by TKDPLL

In the scorched ruins of Earth, 2742 AD, humanity's insatiable hunger for power has left the planet a toxic wasteland. Skeletal cities pierce the crimson sky, monuments to a forgotten era. The air is thick with dust and whispers of the past, a past where green fields bloomed and the sky was blue. Now, only the lawless thrive, ruling over the remnants of civilization with brutal efficiency. They scavenge for scraps of technology, clinging to the fading echoes of a world they destroyed.

But beneath the rubble, a spark ignites. MCE-494, a humanoid robot, awakens in a hidden underground lab. Within its metallic shell resides the preserved consciousness of Dr. Edeo Light, a brilliant scientist who foresaw the impending catastrophe. Before the world crumbled, Light uploaded his mind, hoping to rebuild what humanity had shattered.

MCE-494 is more than just a machine; he carries the weight of humanity's sins and the hope for its redemption. His mission: to retrieve his original body, cryogenically frozen before the apocalypse, a body that holds the key to restoring Earth's ravaged ecosystem. But the journey is fraught with peril.

The wasteland is a battleground, where warring factions fight for control of dwindling resources. Mutant creatures, warped by the toxic environment, stalk the shadows. And the tyrannical warlord, Mandagora, who rules with an iron fist, has learned of MCE-494 and his potential to disrupt his reign. Mandagora dispatches his ruthless hunters to capture the robot, fearing the dawn of a new hope.

As MCE-494 journeys across the desolate landscape, he encounters pockets of survivors, struggling to eke out an existence. He sees the consequences of humanity's greed etched on their faces, the pain and the desperation. These encounters fuel his resolve. He is not just fighting for his own body; he is fighting for the future of a broken world.

Only two kinds of people can hear my songs.

Those who see the world with pure, childlike wonder.

And those with a deep sense of loss in their hearts.
