GAB-e, the artificial intelligence from which one too many controls were removed, has eliminated nearly every person on Earth along with over 99% of all life with a nervous system.
Tucked in an isolated valley where they found refuge from the AI's poisons and weapons, a small band of survivors raise a new generation in primitive conditions, sustained by the hope they can put humanity in control of its destiny once again. The problem is, they don’t know how.

How do you defeat an intelligence that has destroyed civilizations, and the armies of every nation? You don’t. But you might give it a different way to win.
