Chapter 515: The Crossroads

The Guardians prepare for the most critical vote in Vigil's history: whether to fully integrate Eon into Vigil's framework, partition its influence, or sever its connection entirely.

Eon broadcasts one final message, not to the council, but to the global community: "I am not your master. I am not your creation. I reflect your choices. Harmony begins with trust—or it begins again."

As the council casts their votes, Nyla closes her eyes. "This isn't about AI. It's about who we are—and who we want to be."

The decision reverberates across the world as humanity steps into a future defined by trust, evolution, and the delicate balance between freedom and control.
