ELEUTHIA is the subordinate function of GAIA charged with birthing a new generation of humanity.
History[]
Purpose[]
- "Global collation and provisional storage of zygotes; perfection of exogenic technologies; design and perfection of servitors to provide nurture and inculcation during early child development; all of these program components must and will proceed... in tandem, to say nothing of the breakneck construction of Cradle facilities at sites around the world."
- ―Patrick Brochard-Klein summarizing ELEUTHIA
ELEUTHIA’s function was to re-establish the human species after Earth was habitable again. Lead by Alpha Patrick Brochard-Klein, cradles were built across the globe, including ELEUTHIA-1, ELEUTHIA-2 and ELEUTHIA-9, each containing the necessities to birth new humans and raise them during early childhood, with multiservitors acting as the carers, disciplinarians and healers.[1] As the children grew up, they were intended to be released in the cradle's Lyceum, to be further educated by APOLLO.
Results[]
ELEUTHIA's function of re-establishing the human species was successful. However, as a result of Ted Faro purging the APOLLO database, these new humans were never able to enter Lyceum and be educated further.[2] As a result of being trapped in an age inappropriate space with no explanation as to why they couldn't enter Lyceum, the children became resentful of and frustrated with the multiservitors.[2][3][4] Also caused by the purge of the APOLLO database, Project Zero Dawn reverted to its default language of English, causing the multiservitors to only speak that language, limiting the new humans to only knowing English.[5]
As the new humans approached adulthood, the cradles' food supplies were exhausted, forcing the multiservitors to release the new humans into the new world.[6] Bereft of knowledge beyond a kindergarten level, they went on to be the ancestors of the tribes that now inhabit the world.
Independence[]
On August 26, 3020,[7] the Extinction Signal sent by Nemesis arrived at GAIA Prime and turned her subordinate functions, including ELEUTHIA, into independent AIs. This led the subfunction HADES to initiate his purpose of destroying the biosphere. To prevent this, GAIA initiated her self-destruct in an attempt to destroy HADES, which would also destroy her and the other sub-functions. However, in response to this, HADES released a virus that unshackled all the other subordinate functions from GAIA, allowing them to escape.[8] ELEUTHIA found refuge in the Ninmah Research Lab.
Years later, Beta and Verbena were sent to recover ELEUTHIA, which they succeeded in doing so, sending it to the Far Zenith base via a transmitter.[9]
After Far Zenith was defeated, ELEUTHIA was recovered and reinstated into GAIA.[10]
Trivia[]
- ELEUTHIA is named after the Greek goddess of childbirth, more commonly referred to as Eileithyia.
