Simeon, a shell-person, navigates the complexities of Space Station SSS-900, poised at the edge of human civilization. This station thrives amid the vast darkness of space, harboring a population that relies on Simeon's unique capabilities. As the brain governing its operations, Simeon is tasked with maintaining harmony among the eclectic mix of inhabitants, each with their own goals and secrets. The delicate balance is disrupted when a mysterious threat emerges, challenging everything Simeon knows about loyalty, power, and identity.
As tensions flare and alliances shift, Simeon must grapple with an existential crisis that forces him to redefine what it means to be sentient. With the station's survival hanging in the balance, he transcends his programmed boundaries to embrace a new directive: to fight for the very existence of the community he so meticulously oversees. In this gripping narrative of courage and self-discovery, the line between technology and humanity blurs as survival takes on a whole new meaning.
