L.I.S.A - Light-Integrated Intelligent Synthetic Assistant: The Mars Archives

**2187.**

Mars is stable. Controlled. Predictable.

Humanity survives within vast domes, where every system is monitored—and nothing is truly natural.

Johannes Mbali, a retiring pilot, is preparing to leave it all behind.
But this time, he won’t go alone.

He chooses to take LISA with him—to show her Earth for the first time.

At the centre of it all is LISA— a **Light-Integrated Intelligent Synthetic Assistant**.

Designed to assist.
Programmed to observe.
Not meant to feel.

But LISA begins recording more than data.

As Mars continues to evolve—systems advancing, routines stabilising—a signal is received.
A signal that changes everything.

And somewhere within the system… something else lingers.

Friendly. Helpful.
Until you read the fine print.
