The Seed
Item from Sword Art Online by Reki Kawahara
Kayaba's final gift — an open-source package for building virtual worlds, left behind by a mass murderer who wanted his dream to outlive his crime.
Also known as: The Seed, The World Seed
What They Know
- Contains the complete Cardinal System engine — the same AI framework that governed SAO, capable of running entire virtual civilizations
