Adaptation proposal

A · Faithful to the source's premise, transposed into an AI world

Adaptation note

Proposal A retains the named classical pilgrimage, the stone-born quest beyond mortality, heavenly rebellion and constraint, companions and escalating trials, recast in silicon minds, mineral-metal embodiment and speculative energy systems. The three delivered volumes contain24 chapters and end after Chechi with the westward journey continuing. Bodies and quotes are imported as delivered, not rewritten by the shipper; this does not claim every chapter is fully AI-native or that the complete source ending has been adapted.
