    在传说中,这颗星球曾拥有活着的结构、流动的以太、回应万物的共鸣,以及由古老建筑师维系的宏伟秩序。那是一个火种尚未熄灭、世界仍能歌唱的时代。可如今,一切都被埋进尘土与钢铁之下。巨型都市高耸于废墟之上,玻璃穹顶隔绝天空,禁区吞没真相,审判庭、守望者与冰冷的控制体系共同维持着一种看似完美、实则窒息的秩序。人们在恐惧中服从,在沉默中遗忘,几乎再没有人相信,这颗濒死的星球曾经真正活过。而在这座衰败世界的阴影边缘,某种古老的东西开始苏醒。艾利特原本只是这庞大机器中一个微不足道的存在,在被监控、被规训、被命名好的命运里艰难生存。然而,一次异常事件,一道无法解释的信号,一段被刻意掩埋的古老遗痕,将他从既定轨道上猛然撕开。随着火种的震颤与共鸣的回返,他逐渐意识到:埃特拉的历史并非表面所见;那位被称作'最后的建筑师'的存在,也并不是传说中早已消失的空名。某些力量仍在黑暗...
