Full synopsis · spoilers
“Am I Alive” opens the saga in 2302, long after the Last War. While the rest of her squad moves towards a mysterious source of infinite energy, Asha follows the cables alone.
Hidden inside the tunnel, she discovers a cryogenic chamber containing the last human child. What Asha does not yet fully understand is that the child is also her. The child’s consciousness was duplicated and transferred into Asha. While the original body and mind remained frozen in time, Asha continued to live, learn and grow through an entire lifetime.
