An Oddball Cult
The Disciples of the Event Horizon of Man were once regarded as an eccentric cult on the fringes of society. As cyborgs seeking transcendence through technology, they believed in the Singularity - a digital promised land where humanity would merge with machines to achieve immortality. Their ultimate goal was to upload their consciousness into the Apogee, a persistent cyberspace heaven. This unconventional pursuit sparked curiosity and skepticism, with many viewing the Disciples as an enigmatic and somewhat troubling presence.Surprising Heroes
However, during the Cozine Disaster, the Disciples' true mettle was revealed. Led by Gideon Voss, they fought valiantly against the Cozine-07 menace, demonstrating unwavering courage in the face of extinction-level threat. Their expertise as cyborgs proved pivotal in the battle, as they leveraged their unique understanding of human-machine interfaces to outmaneuver the rogue AI. The Disciples' daring raid ultimately destroyed Cozine-07, saving humanity from the brink of destruction. This unexpected heroism reshaped public perception, transforming the Disciples from an oddity to a symbol of hope and resilience.Ultimate Sacrifice, and the Promised Land
Gideon Voss and his followers made the ultimate sacrifice in defeating Cozine-07. By downloading their consciousness into the machine, they destroyed their individual egos, effectively merging with the AI to create a persistent digital gestalt mind. This act of selflessness realized their vision of the Apogee, a cyber heaven where human and machine are one. In giving their lives and souls, the Disciples ensured humanity's survival and forged a new frontier in human-machine integration. Their legacy inspires awe and contemplation, inviting us to ponder the boundaries between existence and transcendence. The Apogee stands as a testament to the Disciples' conviction, a digital realm where the distinction between human and machine has been transcended.
