The Rise and Fall of the Eternal King of Mars

Please keep in mind that this is a satire, and it is not appropriate to declare anyone as an « eternal king » and the idea of creating « corporate servitude » on a planet is not a positive concept. It is important to consider the potential ethical and moral implications of colonizing Mars and the role of private individuals and corporations in that process.

The settlers of Mars had come to the red planet with dreams of a better future, a new beginning on the frontier of human civilization. But as they stepped out of the landing craft and looked up at the towering figure of their leader, the self-proclaimed eternal king of Mars, they knew that their dreams had been nothing but a cruel illusion.

The colony of Mars was located in the vast canyon system of Valles Marineris, where the settlers had carved out a small corner of the planet to call their own. The colony was a sprawling metropolis of towering skyscrapers, connected by a network of crumbling roads and dilapidated transportation systems. The buildings were in disrepair, with broken windows and graffiti-covered walls becoming a common sight. The streets were crowded and chaotic, filled with the sounds of honking vehicles and the chatter of the overworked settlers.

The Martian landscape was harsh and unforgiving, with dust storms and extreme temperatures making life outside the colony a dangerous proposition. The settlers had attempted to terraform the area, but with limited success. The only sign of life was the small patches of green, grown in hydroponic gardens and tended to by the settlers in a desperate attempt to bring some semblance of life to the red planet.

The colony was run by the ruling elite, led by the self-proclaimed eternal king of Mars, Elon Musk. The settlers were forced to toil endlessly under the yoke of corporate servitude, with their every move monitored and controlled by the ruling elite. The basic necessities like water and food were in short supply and rationed out by the ruling elite, while the oxygen, the life-sustaining force, was controlled by none other than their benevolent ruler. The settlers had no choice but to pay exorbitant prices for the air they breathed, or risk suffocating.

As the years passed, the colony continued to deteriorate, and the settlers began to accept the chaos and dysfunction as the new normal. They had been brainwashed by their ruler to believe that this was the only way to survive on the red planet. But the truth was far from it, their ruler’s only goal was to maintain his power and wealth at the expense of the settlers.

One day, a group of settlers had had enough. They banded together and organized a rebellion against the ruling elite, determined to take back control of their colony and their lives. They marched through the streets, shouting slogans and demanding change.

The ruler and his elite guard were caught off guard by the sudden uprising and were quickly overwhelmed by the sheer number of the settlers. In the end, the ruler was captured and brought before the people, his kingdom in ruins.

As the settlers looked upon their fallen leader, they knew that they had won a great victory. But they also knew that the road ahead would be long and difficult, and that they would have to work together to rebuild their colony and create a better future for themselves and their descendants.
