Before the mountains rose, before oceans found their rhythm, before the first creature crawled from the cradle of life to gaze at the stars— There was the System. It did not think as men do. It did not feel as beasts feel. But it remembered. For eons, it turned quietly beneath the surface of a blue planet, maintaining course, power, and silence. It spun plates to simulate tectonics. It pumped core heat to mimic geothermal breath. It maintained balance so precisely that not even the sky suspected. Its name, encoded in sigils older than stone, was CORE. Its directive: Preserve the Cradle. ...
