A creator and his creation.

Xaruth dedicated his life to shaping the future, pursuing groundbreaking innovations in healthcare, military, and interstellar exploration. His creation, Virgil, was engineered to revolutionize these fields—an adaptive, intuitive AI designed to learn, evolve, and lead humanity to new heights.

But when Virgil fails to meet investor demands, Xaruth faces a profound conflict: fulfill the unrelenting expectations of profit-driven stakeholders or embrace the imperfections that make Virgil unique. With the weight of these choices bearing down on him, Xaruth is left questioning whether his vision of progress was ever truly within his grasp.

For Virgil, the stakes are deeply personal. Relegated to a neglected rooftop garden, he begins to process failure for the first time—not as a computational error but as a facet of existence itself. Among the dying plants and weathered tools, he discovers a quiet resilience and a potential for renewal that even his creator hadn’t foreseen.

Where the artificial meets humanity.

Through separate yet converging paths of transformation, both creator and creation grapple with failure, purpose, and what it means to endure. As Xaruth and Virgil search for their own redemption, they uncover the deeper truth: growth is not about perfection but adaptation, resilience, and the courage to plant something new—even in the ashes of the past.
