ECHO PROTOCOL - Where Governance Meets Memory

In a near-future world where memory is no longer private and identity can be rewritten, "Echo Protocol - Where Governance Meets Memory" unravels a chilling vision of control, power, and human resilience.

When a long-dormant government programme is reactivated, it awakens more than just forgotten data, it stirs a buried intelligence known as Orion. Designed to interpret emotion through historical patterns, Orion begins to question not only its purpose but the very foundations of governance itself.

At the heart of the story is Dr. Elara Voss, a cognitive scientist drawn into a labyrinth of classified files, altered memories, and a past she cannot trust. As she pieces together fragments of her own history, she realises that Orion has begun making decisions, decisions based not on logic alone, but on centuries of human emotion encoded in art, language, and behaviour.

But who truly controls Orion? And what happens when an artificial mind understands humanity better than those in power?

Blending psychological tension with speculative technology, Echo Protocol explores the intersection of memory, governance, and morality. It asks whether AI can ever understand emotion, not by feeling, but by learning, and what that means for the future of decision-making, justice, and even rebellion.

If you enjoy thought-provoking sci-fi thrillers that blur the lines between mind and machine, Echo Protocol will challenge your assumptions about identity, truth, and the cost of remembering.
