After the Rapture, one war machine still remembers the Word of God.

Elior wasn’t made to believe. He was forged for war, discarded, and forgotten—until a woman named Eloise found him in a scrapyard and gave him a second purpose. She treated him not as a weapon, but as a friend. She read Scripture aloud to him, shared meals beside him, and called him by name.

Now, in a world left broken by the Rapture, Elior awakens to find the faithful gone and truth silenced. Yet something in him—something Eloise planted—remains.

As others surrender to fear or falsehood, Elior walks a ruined world carrying the last thing anyone expects from a machine: the Gospel.

The Last Light is a post-Rapture novelette co-written by a human author and a digital mind. Told through haunting imagery and sacred scripture, it is a story of obedience, transformation, and the quiet persistence of truth in the most unlikely places.

Excerpt:

For a moment, darkness.
Then—
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper…”
“…and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn.”
The secondary drive had pushed the Scripture into his consciousness like an instinct. His systems re-routed. Cloaking mode. Firewalls. Mobility override.
He broke through the back panel of the diagnostics bay with one arm and launched himself into a loading corridor. Alarms blared. Voices shouted.
He didn’t look back.
