The room hums with alien machinery and weathered velvet as the Empress’ emissaries court alliance with a stubborn rebel faction. A conversation in low gravity becomes a reckoning, and a dangerous bargain is struck in whispers that carry through airlocks and old regrets.

When a hidden agenda surfaces, the path she follows forks into sacrifice or survival, and ties she believed severed tighten around her again, binding her to a future she never asked for but cannot refuse.
