Elias Crowl - Author & Writer

In the world of modern science fiction, where artificial intelligence and human memory intertwine in unsettling ways, KLEIO - External Access (in german: KLEIO - Fremdzugriff) stands as a chilling exploration of control, identity, and the fragile nature of personal truth.
