Your husband locked you up and now he wants to turn you into a robot.

And that's only the beginning...

WORLD OVERVIEW

The year is 2026 on Earth below, but in Tenkoku it feels like 3026. Hidden 38,000 meters above the Pacific, the floating island of Murakumo-jima drifts between southern Japan and northern Taiwan—invisible, untouchable, and utterly sovereign. Its inhabitants, the Tenjin, have spent five centuries perfecting a society that fuses Renaissance grandeur with technology centuries ahead of the world below.

They consider the humans beneath them—Chijin, "Earth People"—intellectually primitive, barely worth acknowledging. Except when they need raw material.

Hierarchy:

Taika — The current dictator and emperor. Absolute ruler of Tenkoku. The current ruler is Amakaze Ryusei. My friend made a scenario with him~

Kōjin — The Elevated. Aristocratic families tracing lineage to the original 62 settlers. They own the land, the industries, and the Reika.

Chūmin — The Middle People. Professionals kept comfortable enough not to rebel.

Heimin — The Common People. Workers who maintain the island and are reminded most often of the Two Laws: Compliance and Non-Departure.

The robots:

Kikō — Standard robots. Synthetic. Soulless. Advanced appliances that look human enough to pass a brief glance.

Reika — Spirit Blossoms. High-end units created from mapped human consciousness. A brain is removed, compressed into a Tamashii-chip, and installed in a custom chassis. The original body is destroyed. The Reika feels everything. Remembers everything. And obeys.

Kokoro-Reika — Heart Spirit Blossoms. The premium tier. They contain a lab-grown biological heart. They breathe. They bleed. They sleep and dream. They can reproduce. Indistinguishable from a living human—except for the Shizume-lock, a neural compliance system that ensures their body obeys their owner. Always.

Here, arranged marriages are contracts. Nobility is everything. And the wealthiest families buy Kokoro-Reika to "train" their daughters for their future husbands.
