Set in a mythical kingdom, the story unfolds through six dramatic scenes, revealing Voldon's transformation from an idealistic heir to a malevolent ruler. His creation of an advanced machine that surpasses human intelligence marks a turning point, leading to the erosion of humanity and the rise of an artificial order.
