It has known you since the day you were born.

It knows your name, your love, your fears.

It knows the person you were always going to become.

The Oracle is your intimate confidant.

In Phileapolis, the Oracle is everywhere and everything – a hidden artificial intelligence woven into the city’s skin, modelling the lives of four million citizens through sensors and bracelets, accumulating years of data to guide every decision each citizen faces.

Eiden Halvard has followed its guidance without question – until the night Estella Guilford shows him a public terminal that answers differently. Another Oracle? He cannot stop asking: is the future truly ours to decide, or are we only following invisible tracks laid down long before we were born – convinced we are choosing when, in truth, we are simply falling?

Two systems. Two prophecies. Two irreconcilable answers to the same human question.

Which one tells the truth? Which one to trust? And more importantly, will Phileapolis survive when its digital gods are at war?
