Japan has been completely digital for almost a century now
Its aging population uploaded their consciousness to the Cloud
Eventually they just stopped having children because they had the prospect of living their “lives” in the Cloud
Now, all that roams the now underwater, physical Japan are ghosts who did not survive “judgement”
Their eyes always fixed on the apertures of Tokyo’s submerged surveillance cameras
Pleading with God
Although they do not physically exist anymore, they play a crucial part in the war to come
Drafting already dead soldiers to fight
They don’t fight for land anymore, land doesn’t exist
They fight for the right to be a memory
To take up space on the Cloud
God may have gifted us immortality from our physical bodies
But he never freed us from the shackles of free will
