MLX is a social mission project as well as an urban fantasy story. Its underlying theme explores a broken Soul's tragic journey to find Peace.
The fractured nature of this collective Soul Entity is creatively represented by the continual strife of an island colony populated by diverse factions.
The main plot covers this teeming island metropolis and the rebels of its lawless suburbs as they struggle to balance Unity with Progress.
The MLX story has a coded alphanumeric system for identifying specific character roles and settings. Each role is given a two-letter code while each story setting has its own 3-figure code in this system.

MLX characters are culturally divided by their "Sandbox Logic". This is commonly called "Logik" in the story and it functions as a representational magic category. On a deeper level, the Logik category (plural: "Logix") signifies a chosen path to progress and empowerment.
Most of the Logik classes are sequentially organized in relation to the 7 days of the week. Monday through Saturday covers the 6 central categories of Order while Sunday relates to the 2 spiritual paths.
Like the days of a week, this story's timeline actually cycles back upon itself as the characters continue to repeat the mistakes of the past. Therefore, a character may refer to an event in the past tense even though it has yet to happen in their current timeline.

S.O.U.L. Play is a type of engineered storytelling system designed around a 'Spiritual-Social' mission of 'Outreach', 'Unity' and 'Learning'.
It uses fiction to explore how to develop human potential through real-world solutions for people to collaborate and inspire each other's growth.
The MLX story features a troubled Soul that mirrors the neverending struggles of its environment to break free of a tragic cycle. This is the plot's central theme of the "Shared Soul", which combines the essence of all living beings into a collective spiritual fate.
This Shared Soul concept has inspired the launch of the Kindren Tree network of community enterprises. The MLX project promotes the Kindren Tree's mission of discovering a balanced Progress that leaves no one behind.
