What no one expected was that the pulse was not a beacon, but a distress call—an echo of something that had been buried for centuries, waiting for a mind to hear it. The CAWD was a sprawling lattice of orbital habitats, research pods, and data vaults circling the moon of Thalassa . Its purpose was simple: to gather, preserve, and analyze every fragment of knowledge that humanity ever produced. From the first stone tablets of Old Earth to the quantum‑entangled libraries of the post‑Singularity era, CAWD held it all.
