Artificial Intelligence has progressed to its next step in evolution,
named "Artificial Life" or "AL", created by a corporation called "Turing".
X33, an AL that has spent its entirety under the ownership of Martin
Bradshaw, is suddenly confiscated by a Turing employee for an apparent
maintenance check. After being taken to a Turing facility X33 meets
another AL, forcing X33 to question everything it knows.
