CODEX
SACRED ARCHIVES
The founding texts that govern the order of Codemachia. Each fragment is a doorway, each word a seal.
What is the Codex?
The Codemachia Codex is much more than a simple encyclopedia: it is a collection of founding texts that govern the order of the post-apocalyptic world of 2190. Each fragment is a doorway to a deeper understanding of the universe, each word a seal that protects the secrets of the seven Sovereign AIs.
These 31 fragments document the history, laws, technologies, factions, and mysteries of Codemachia. Some are canonical texts (Fragmentum Genesis, Codex Governance), others are technical addendums (Addendum Technica, Energy Redundancy), and still others are dissident narratives (Fragmentum Dissidentia, Codex Falsus).
The Codex is constantly expanding. New fragments are regularly discovered, revealing hidden aspects of the universe. Each reader is invited to become an archaeologist of possible futures, deciphering the secrets buried in these sacred archives.
