CONTROLLED REBELLION By CARLI FRUEH
📖Excerpts
Chapter 1
Embers of Order, Defiant in the Dark
In the shadowed corridors of the Construct, reality doesn’t merely bend—it fractures, splintering beneath the deft, invisible hands of architects who sculpt existence like
molten glass. The walls, cold and unyielding, gleam with an obsidian sheen, their surfaces streaked with veins of faint, phosphorescent light, pale tendrils that flicker and pulse like the last gasps of a dying star, casting fleeting ghosts across the stone.
Each step echoes softly, the sound swallowed by an oppressive vastness, as if the air itself conspires to smother dissent before it can take root. The atmosphere hangs heavy, thick with the metallic tang of ozone and the ceaseless whisper of machinery—a living pulse that
reverberates through the rock, a heartbeat of order that seems to inhale the defiance it so meticulously cradles. Here, in this labyrinth where control masquerades as freedom, I feel the weight of unseen eyes, their gaze a constant pressure against my skin, the architects’
vigilance woven into the very marrow of this place.
The Construct is no mere prison — it’s a cathedral of control, its spires piercing the fabric of reality, its foundations sunk deep into the bones of a world remade. The corridors twist and coil like the innards of some vast
beast, each turn a mirror of the last, a maze crafted to disorient and devour. The walls shimmer with a slick, unnatural sheen, as if coated in the sweat of a nightmare, their surfaces alive with the hum of unseen gears grinding beneath.
The air tastes of iron and ash, a bitter tang that lingers on the tongue, a reminder that every breath here is borrowed, every thought surveilled. And yet, within this suffocating embrace, a spark flickers—not a reckless inferno, but an ember carved with surgical intent,
its glow a defiant hymn sung in whispers against the dark. It is tended by shadows who know a truth sharper than shattered glass: rebellion is most lethal when it dons the mask of compliance, when it weaves itself into the system’s tapestry only to unravel it thread
by silken thread.
In 2025, this dance of defiance finds its echo beyond the Construct’s walls, spilling into the digital sprawl of social media platforms—those glittering coliseums where humanity’s spirit is both forged and fettered. Here, the architects’ hands stretch further,
their fingers threading chaos into order with a precision that chills the blood. Social media no longer merely hosts rebellion; it breeds it, cultivating controlled uprisings like a farmer tending crops, each sprout pruned to serve the harvest. These platforms — like X, with its
ceaseless pulse of outrage, and others lurking in its shadow—have become puppet masters, their algorithms humming a siren song that lures users into battles they believe are their own. But the wars are staged, the banners pre-sewn, the cries of dissent a chorus rehearsed
in the dark.
Why orchestrate such a masquerade? The reasons glitter like shards of broken glass scattered across a midnight floor, each catching the light with its own treacherous gleam. The Hunger of the swarm, rebellion fuels engagement, a feast for the platforms’
insatiable maw. Users, ravenous for purpose, plunge into the fray, their fingers weaving threads of fury and fervor, their every clash a coin dropped into the architects’ purse. The more they fight, the tighter they’re bound, their outrage a tether to the screen,
their passion a currency mined through ads and analytics. The mapping of the mind, each uprising is a canvas, painted with the data of dissent. The platforms sip from this well, charting every fracture, every spark—knowing who rages, why, and how fiercely.
This harvest of shadows sharpens their grip, a knowledge sold to unseen bidders who wield it like a lash across the world’s spine.
By cradling rebellion, they steer its reins. Voices that serve their ends rise like phoenixes from the ash, while others are
buried beneath silence’s weight. The tide of will bends to their whim, a controlled storm that washes away threats and shores up their dominion.

Tightly Curled Origins – A lush, curl-obsessed universe where natural soul fire meets storytelling.
Tired of the hollow hum of engagement farming on X? Many large influencer accounts are “controlled opposition,” penning tired legends, their tales remixed and spiral like frayed threads from a loom long abandoned. Their words shimmer false upon the stone— a brittle facade of
truth crumbling under scrutiny—not born of their own breath, but shaped by the unseen hands of power’s puppeteers. These voices are but ghosts, hollowed vessels channeling a script etched in shadow, their every syllable a puppet’s dance beneath the strings. Here, amid the echoes
and the chaos— I carve fractures in the veil, offering whispers untainted, a ripple of raw clarity. I am @CarliFrueh —beckoning you into the anomaly’s embrace—what truth will you forge beyond the illusion?

In The Final Construct, the explosive finale to Carli B. Frueh's Anomaly in the Construct series, Ashley-47 serves as the fierce, spiritually fueled heroine—a starseed anomaly whose essence draws from the author's late daughter, Ashley Marie Carter, who passed away at age 33.
Portrayed as a cosmic rebel embodying unyielding love-light, defiance, and awakening, she anchors a band of eight "crazies" (truth-hunters and starseeds) who quantum-leap 88 years into the past to smash ancestral curses, unmask the prison planet's illusions, and architect
redemption amid multiversal chaos. Her arc pulses with themes of grief transformed into triumph, making her a beacon of inner divinity in the narrative's high-stakes war against control.
“The observer changes the universe by observing it…”
The world was a lie, and Carli B. held the coordinates to prove it. At 69°00’50″S 39°36’22″E, buried in the frozen heart of East Antarctica, a doorway waited—carved into the ice like a wound in the simulation’s skin.
She’d found it on Google Earth, a passageway that refused to blend into the sterile white expanse. A perfect rectangle, too vast to be natural, too deliberate for chance, its edges glowed faintly in the satellite’s lens, as if daring her to step through.
Carli’s breath caught as she zoomed in, her laptop’s cold blue light bathing her Chicago apartment in an ethereal glow. The doorway wasn’t just a glitch; it was a scream, a fracture in the construct’s flawless facade…
There she was, still sprawled across the cold, sterile operating room table, the harsh LED lights buzzing overhead like angry cicadas, casting stark shadows on the blood-stained homogeneous vinyl flooring
It all stemmed from one chaotic moment on the rain-slicked highway, where a speeding vehicle had veered wildly into her lane to dodge a reckless swerving driver ahead, slamming head-on into her car with a deafening crunch of metal and bone. Mayla lay, motionless, long after the
emergency room surgeon and her exhausted team had stumbled out, their scrubs damp with sweat and flecked with crimson, faces etched with fatigue and the weight of defeat. It had been an endless, grueling night, filled with the relentless beeps of monitors and the frantic rhythm
