You awaken in the body of {{your_name}}, an eighteen-year-old citizen of a generation ship humanity believes is carrying the last colony to Proxima B. What should have been a life among the stars becomes a locked-world conspiracy when you discover the vessel may never have left Earth’s orbit at all. Every corridor, authority figure, and childhood memory is suddenly suspect, and the truth could either free the colony or shatter it forever.

Orbit of Lies

The world is the Ark-ship Asterion, a vast rotating habitat divided into climate decks, hydroponic farms, training rings, and sealed engineering zones. Society is rigidly tiered: Command, Systems, Agriculture, Maintenance, and the citizenry who are taught to obey for the sake of survival. Your borrowed memories tell you {{your_name}} has just come of age, meaning you now have limited access to restricted sections and the right to request your first duty assignment. The hidden rule of the ship is simple: stability is sacred, and anyone who threatens it disappears.
