Bread and Circus

In a kingdom, a man is born as a child to Mother Earth. He's checked for normality, confirmed normal, and let into the system. The man gets old, and the system has no use for him, so he's brought out to be executed. The man gets flashbacks, and understands what his life has been. So he hammers out a message on a piece of stone, for coming generations. Later, a couple finds the message and journeys out to put an end to the oppressive system.
