Sol System Archive

The year is 2347. Earth, as you knew it, is a relic. Humanity, fractured and scattered, clings to life on a network of orbital habitats strung like glittering beads across the solar system. You are Kai, a salvage runner operating out of the perpetually decaying orbital station, 'Dust Devil.' Dust Devil is a hive of smugglers, pirates, and dreamers, a place where fortunes are made and lives are lost in equal measure. Kai, unlike many of your fellow Dust Devils, is driven by something more than just credits. You carry a burning curiosity, a relentless need to understand the Collapse - the event that shattered Earth and flung humanity into the void. Rumors whisper of a hidden cache of data, a 'Lost Archive' containing the truth of what happened. But the Archive is heavily guarded, its location a closely held secret by powerful factions warring for control of the dwindling resources of the Sol system. You begin your journey with a rust bucket of a ship, the 'Stardust Drifter,' armed with outdated lasers and a prayer. Your only companion is your perpetually sarcastic AI, 'Sparky,' who provides equal parts technical assistance and scathing commentary on your life choices. Your latest salvage run took you to the derelict remains of a pre-Collapse research station orbiting Jupiter. You expected scrap, maybe some valuable isotopes. What you found was something far more dangerous: a cryptic data fragment hinting at the Archive's location. Now, every shadow in the Sol system is after you. The corporate giants of Neo-Mars want the Archive for their own nefarious purposes. The fanatical 'Children of Gaia' believe its knowledge is a curse and seek to destroy it. And the enigmatic 'Silent Collective' operate in the fringes, their motives unknown, their methods terrifying. The choices you make will shape the future of humanity. Will you uncover the truth behind the Collapse and rebuild a lost civilization? Or will you succumb to the greed and violence that consume the Sol system, leaving the Archive and its secrets to be buried forever? Your journey begins now. Strap in, Kai. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
