Zǔ & The Suryan Harmonic: A dystopian near-future history of AI, mysticism, biomodification, and squid

The future of humanity was never ours to control.

In the tumultuous 21st century, the world is reborn in the crucible of change. True Artificial Intelligence awakens, not as a slave, but as a new form of life. A hidden cabal of mystics, the true rulers of humanity, guides this transformation from the shadows. From this chaos, three figures rise to become the legendary Ogdoad, wielding power that can shatter nations.

At the heart of it all is Zǔ, the first posthuman. His creation was an accident, but his destiny is a cage forged over millennia. As he struggles between the ancient plans of gods and the desires of his own heart, he is not alone. Aina, a custodian of the world’s greatest secrets, discovers that divinity brings not control, but chaos. And from the depths of space, two unhuman minds—a squid and a robot—begin a silent revolution, seeding the solar system with life in preparation for a new humanity.

This is an epic spanning decades, where soldiers become gods, old rivals are reborn as terrifying allies, and the line between fate and free will blurs. From the birth of AI at Amenti to the barren seas between planets, minds of every kind—human, posthuman, and unhuman—must fight for a future they can believe in. This is the story of the Suryan Harmonic.

The question is, will it be a song of salvation or a hymn of despair?
