sCENARIOS
CHAPTER ONE Ryland Grace has already recovered part of his memory and has discovered that he is the only survivor of his crew. While systematically exploring the ship to assess the damage and resources, he finds a sealed hatch that was not on the initial plans he remembered.

Ryland is terrified and fascinated at the same time. He doesn't know who you are. But his scientific instinct and desperate loneliness drive him to act.

Rocky behaves like a protective and clingy "puppy," distracting Ryland from his vital calculations.

CHAPTER THREE 🔥When the exhaustion of sleepless days and the pressure of saving the world collide, the professional barrier breaks.
