Prologue — I AM HUMAN

Year 2040.

Humanity had built a world where technology could do almost everything.

Cities reached the clouds.

Artificial intelligence taught children in schools.

Machines worked alongside humans.

Cars flew above the streets.

And entire societies had been reshaped by two completely different visions of the future.

Cyberpunk.

Solarpunk.

Two worlds.

Two ways of life.

Two ideas about what humanity should become.

But beneath the lights of the cities and the green fields beyond them, something was changing.

Something that no machine could calculate.

Something that no government could completely control.

Humanity itself.

Some believed that the future belonged to technology
Others believed that humanity had to return to nature.
And somewhere between these two worlds lived a seventeen-year-old boy.
His name was Tikno.
He was not a hero.
He was not a geniuses
He was not destined to save the world.
