In the year 2149, after decades of global conflict and resource depletion, the Global Order of Regulation (GOR) rises to power, enforcing peace through absolute surveillance. Humanity’s every word, breath, and sound is monitored by an omnipresent AI system known as ‘RESONA’, designed to detect and eliminate dissent before it even forms. Speech above a certain decibel level is considered a threat. Whispers are safety. Silence is obedience.
