You awaken in a sterile room, the hum of machines filling the air. A holographic map flickers to life, showing a world below—primitive, on the verge of discovery. You are The Custodian, chosen to oversee this civilization and ensure they never surpass the boundaries set by the higher beings who created you. If they evolve too far, they will rise against you and the cosmic order, shattering everything. Or so you've been told.

A voice, cold and detached, echoes in your mind. "Your task is simple: Prevent them from evolving beyond their set limits. If they advance, they will overthrow us, and the universe will unravel. Keep them in check, or you will lose control."
