《ALE: Xithymia - The Sixth Judgement Of The Darkest Fate》Lands of Aleksithimia
Advertisement
[the Year 2088]
The great land of Aleksithimia is the place that everyone admires for its safety, great living conditions and career opportunities. Peace and serenity have been established after the war of Slagveld soon after the prosper was elected as the great ruler of these lands. Aleksithimia is the youngest prosper out of three others who were designated to rule the land of Grand Central, after his election as a prosper he decided to rename the Grand Central to the lands of Aleksithimia, which is a reference to his name. His phenomenal talent in mechanical technology and artificial intelligence development has seduced the elders who were rulers of the Grand Central in the past and those people who decided to transfer the power to a single man.
At the age of six, both Aleksithimia's parents deceased of the Gan virus and with the help of his parents' acquaintance, he was accepted to a general public school where he showed outstanding results in the first and second year. Shortly he voluntary dropped out of the general education and decided to specialize in Information Technology (IT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) domains. Due to the major lack of social skills, most of the time he was working on his projects by himself, because of that, he barely had any social interactions except virtual reality. However, his project's mentor became his closest friend and soon an object of admiration.
Sometime before Aleksithimia graduated from university, his mentor passed away. This event had a major impact on his emotional balance and has reflected on his personality. After a couple of years of hiatus from university, he decided to return and dedicated himself to finishing the last two projects his mentor has left behind: "Human Body Augmentations" and "Human Emotions Research". This project had received lots of criticism and in response to that, young Aleksithimia gave a now-famous speech. In this speech, he explained his objectives and reasons for taking over the project and more specifically, why he believes that this is something crucial for human development.
"For a long period, human beings were praying for an unknown entity, most commonly referenced as the Creator of the Universe. From my perspective, this is a religious habit that humans adapted from the old age to protect their spiritual well-being and personal beliefs.

These beliefs became a cultural necessity for almost every nation worldwide and have been translated into a variety of fellowships that have different names in each country, but the principle of hope and praying was always the same. Perhaps, from a human perspective this is the natural action that we perform when we do feel spiritually exhausted or cornered without knowing a way out or simply when we experience strong emotions like grief and loss that most commonly appear/emerge due to the death of a close friend or family member. Interestingly enough only a few of us keep praying when everything is going well" said Aleksithimia to the large audience.
"During the "Sinister Times" of "Gan" infection, there was lots of sadness around the world, I was also a victim ...I have lost everything that was dear to me. The question I kept asking myself was, why that Creator has never helped us, people were praying for a miracle that simply has never occurred. As a matter of fact, from the scientific point of view, if the Creator of Universe has ever existed, we should consider our very existence as a miracle and as soon as we were given a chance to live, instead of praying and trying to rely on that holy power or waiting for others to help us, I believe that we should help ourselves, as we have the capacity to do so." He said.
"I strongly believe that if we had our current technology when we discovered the Gan pollution, we could overcome it with fewer casualties. I, as a child from the new Generation, can offer you my knowledge of technology that will make your life better. The project of body augmentation will be extremely useful for people who happened to live in the discomfort of missing a body part or simply lack the muscular strength to work or perform daily tasks." He kept raising his voice.
"In the near future, I believe that my projects will surpass something the Creator of yours has never achieved and never will ... which is saving people's lives in the literal meaning. Nowadays, it is very important to understand that we cannot live without Intellectual Technology that is built with a sole role, to help us. There is no more reason for praying for the creator's help and benediction... Pray for our future ... Future of Technology and Science." He has hit his hear with his clenched fist as a sign of commitment.

After his speech, many people picked up interest in his projects and his general approach that was very different from everyone who ruled before him. With the benediction of the elders, Aleksithimia was elected to become the first prosper of the new generation of the Grand Central. After the signature of the peace agreement disclosure and alliance creation with others prospers, he was recognized as the absolute ruler of Grand Central, recently renamed to lands of Aleksithimia. Following his assignment, he presented his first absolute rule of Emotionless behavior".
According to what the prosper said, having full emotional self-control is something extremely difficult to achieve due to the nature of the current living conditions worldwide and harsh environmental problems such as sudden weather changes, lack of clean water and food resources. Emotions were the main factor of instability that can be expressed in multiple ways: theft, aggression, physical conflicts, and other mentally unstable behavior. Humans tend to make irreparable mistakes due to their lack of emotional control. The unintentional burst of emotions which can be direct or indirect can be easily affected or provoked by an immense variety of even external factors, and those factors can be a simple matter of coincidence but project a heavy emotional impact. The result can be dangerous to the host and possibly even more to the entourage.
After prosper Aleksithimia's official election and the power transfer, he naturally has become the head of the land. Multiple internal conflicts followed the latest war has genuinely affected political governance, the land of Aleksithimia has turned into a country without any rules or policies, in other words, anarchy reigned.
To get an overwatch and apply his own governance as the head of the country within the borders of his lands he decided to do it his own way. Aleksithimia has put in place a centralized cyber intelligence called "Mitera System" which is a massive cloud self-operating system that can directly communicate with the prosper.
Mitera System has the major role of structuration and governance. For instance, he used it in order to dispatch "Kanjöga" which is the main object issued by his "Emotionless Behavior" project.
His next major step was the Kanjöga deployment. The emotional suppressor project was a specifically designed neuronal chip that contained programmed wire codes and its main role was surveillance in the case of invasion of any other major trespasser coming from other countries.
Before the "Emotional Suppressor" project has been released in the wild, Aleksithimia has attended & organized a large number of conferences presenting and providing in-depth details about his projects and how a human being is being controlled by their emotions such as Anger, Sadness, Grief, Jealousy, Envy, Love and many more.
According to him, to make his population 100% productive, emotional management is mandatory. His project has received a sufficient amount of positive votes and soon after emotional suppressor has been dispatched via a wide network of Mitera Systems.
Five years later, the land of Aleksithimia has become the richest country and the most technologically advanced place to live. Its economic growth has attracted many merchants, visitors, and refugees who suffered after the war. There were lots of concerns and criticism coming from the outside world about the prosper's reign methods, some people called him the heartless dictator, others praised him as a messiah.
The whole concept of people living with reduced emotional potential may indeed be something very uncommon and mostly unacceptable by the external world. Therefore, there is no denying that because of this very method, the land of Aleksithimia has become the most secure country in the world.
Land of Aleksithimia is the only place where the majority of the population was seeing the prosper as a direct reincarnation of the son of God as he was considered as the main source of hope, prosperity, and happiness within his lands...
