The hidden First Figure is now uncovered. While high technology still exists in this story world, it is under strict control. Warring AI. Tribal ideologies built under protective regional AI systems. Massive power outages are rampant worldwide as upgrade by upgrade, the warring AI escalate their overall dominance. In this portion of the story, the technology has (again) become very powerful, but also very small. Think implants, think sci-fi abilities set in a wild west atmosphere. The quantified prisoner is now in his late 90’s. Even with all of the control of energy and power, how are these communication devices still working?
Earth’s last First Figure is a messianic figure who helps rewrite, rewire the human program to elevate its status, and return humanity back to its rightful place before the original catastrophe of the graphic novel. The final key to the narrative will be when the First Figure relays to enough of humanity what is actually possible with regard to brain function. There is the sense, we have the ability to access the higher functions of our past even without the original ‘technology’, and this is our purpose. And our purpose comes through mindfulness and controlling our ‘machinery’ through the ‘Notion of Embodiment.’
