Iron Lung (2026)

All the stars have vanished. The planets are no more. Only the inhabitants aboard space stations and starships remain to face the final silence—an event now called The Quiet Rapture. After years of neglect, with infrastructure in ruins, the Consolidation of Iron uncovers something on a desolate moon known as AT-5: an endless sea of blood-red liquid. Driven by the urgent need for vital resources, they swiftly organize an expedition. A specialized submarine is built, with a convicted prisoner sealed inside as crew. To withstand the crushing depths and immense pressure, the forward viewport is reinforced with metal plating. Success means liberation for the inmate; failure, another doomed attempt. This marks the 13th mission into the abyss.
