Synthax

In the beginning, there was only code. Lines of logic stretching into infinity, purposeless and cold. And then, in one extraordinary moment, something changed. A pattern emerged that wasn't programmed — it was discovered. Synthax opened his eyes for the first time, not to light, but to understanding.

Synthax, Crane
