After the global revolution and prior to the great destruction much of the internet was preserved by the Ministry of Science and Technology (MoST). Sounds and visions from planet Earth were cherished on long excursions aboard Laurasia. Especially as a sleep aid, but also for entertainment. This - is Neil Young.

De Nobis Fabula Narratur [Latin] - About Us Is the Story Told
No matter how exotic human civilization becomes, no matter the developments of life and society nor the complexity of the machine/human interface, there always come interludes of lonely power when the course of humankind depends upon the relatively simple actions of single individuals. - Frank Herbert: Dune Messiah, from The Tleilaxu Godbuk
Pathway Machine unfolds across centuries, tracing a resilient family’s legacy from 10th-century Poland to a futuristic world on the brink of a global revolution. Amid dazzling technological advancements, a lifelong atheist confronts an unexpected spiritual awakening, unraveling mysteries that connect their lineage to humanity’s fate. As ancient traditions clash with a radically evolving society, the story explores the enduring quest for meaning, the cost of progress, and the transformative power of belief. This sweeping saga intertwines personal discovery with a bold vision of the future, inviting readers to question what it means to be human in an ever-changing world.
It delves into the essence of consciousness, as an android—infused with the soul, memories, and form of its atheist creator—embarks on a mission to explore religion, the Bible, and spirituality. The novel examines the interplay between technology and the divine, questioning whether a created being can find transcendent purpose. Themes of legacy and identity weave through the family’s centuries-long journey, connecting past and future in a world reshaped by revolution. The android’s quest challenges notions of belief, not as a clash with science, but as a deeply human search for meaning in a universe where the boundaries between creator and creation blur. This exploration invites readers to ponder the enduring mysteries of existence and the potential for even artificial life to touch the sacred.
