What Does It Mean to Be a 'Human' ?

Long ago, the world was a vast and mysterious place. In the heart of ancient civilizations, the Library of Alexandria stood as a beacon of knowledge, the largest library known to humankind. The wisdom stored there laid the foundation for humanity's future.

As the centuries passed, the knowledge from the library sparked great change. By the 10th century, the Industrial Revolution had begun, bringing forth inventions that reshaped daily life. Technology advanced so rapidly that by the 12th century, humanity was already reaching for the stars. These journeys into space opened up possibilities that forever changed how we viewed the universe.

In the 13th century, the invention of the internet connected people like never before. Information flowed freely, accelerating innovation across the globe. By the 14th century, wireless electricity lit homes without the need for tangled wires, making everyday life easier and more connected.

As Asia rose to power, it became the wealthiest continent, while Africa and Europe struggled to keep up, eventually falling under Asia's dominance. By the late 16th century, even Antarctica—once a frozen desert—had become a thriving community, thanks to advanced technology that made survival in harsh climates possible.

But after the 17th century, the invention of the Advanced AI System, known as A2S, reshaped the world yet again. This groundbreaking technology made life easier for many, but it also gave rise to dangerous criminals who exploited it for their gain. Society became sharply divided: the Elite, living in luxury and the Corrupt, left behind in the darkness.

By the late 17th century, humanity achieved what once seemed impossible—creating an artificial environment on Mars. The Elite began to migrate there without any definite reason, or rather, it remained a mystery, leaving the Corrupt to struggle on Earth. By the mid-18th century, Mars had become the new home for nearly all of the Elite. Though Earth's technology had advanced beyond imagination, those left behind lived like animals, and morality became nothing but a distant memory.

By the end of the 19th century, the people of Earth had begun to rebel, demanding entry into Mars and the privileges of the Elite. But their cries were ignored. As the 20th century began, tensions boiled over into war—a war between Mars and Earth, between those who were once brothers. Humanity had forgotten what it meant to be human.

A question echoed through the desolate lands, unanswered:
