In a future where humanity nearly faced extinction and was saved through rapid, DNA-based soldier creation, the Earth has since been rebuilt, and a new generation of “normie” soldiers is emerging. As the last class of specialized recruits graduates and transitions to civilian life, their moment of celebration is unexpectedly interrupted by a mysterious event in the sky. The story explores themes of survival, technological manipulation, and the fragile peace between humans and extraterrestrial forces.
