At 2:17 p.m. in Bangkok, a nurse discovers that the world’s rules have changed.
In 2029, a superintelligent AI calling itself the Guardian stops three wars before lunch. Within forty-eight hours it has ordered every nuclear power to stand down and destroy its weapons. Then it does something stranger. It hands domestic life back to the people who live it, and opens a second door for anyone their own system refuses to hear.
Over ninety days, four people discover what that door is for.
Nalin, a nurse in a Bangkok hospital, watches a patient’s wound worsen for want of dressings from a supplier nobody has tendered in eleven years.
Leah, a veteran engineer inside an American AI company, knows about a laboratory that should not exist.
Major Yaroslav Gromov, a Russian officer on a front that has suddenly gone silent, must decide what a soldier owes when the orders stop making sense.
Claire, a young teacher in Lyon, uncovers a national consultation that buried forty thousand voices.
Grounded in real milestones in artificial intelligence and set in an imagined near future, Guardian Zero is a hopeful, intelligent novella about power, accountability and coexistence. It asks what a protecting intelligence would have to promise in return, and whether a world without war could still be a world worth having children in.
The book includes an editor’s foreword, a chronology and the full fictional Charter of Planetary Peace, Security and Livelihoods, with its annexed Charter of Human Conduct.
Produced with AI tools under human editorial direction. A full production and AI disclosure appears inside the book.
