Two planets, Tarniss and Kurate. Worlds apart, bound by a history.
Simon Jacobs lives a life of effortless privilege in the utopian paradise of Kurate. Every need is met, every desire satisfied. With a loving wife, family, and friends, his world seems perfect, unshakable.
On Tarniss Male 98456 toils under the crushing weight of birth debt. Food is scarce. Water is rationed. Hope is forbidden. Everything and everyone is owned by the corporation. There is no freedom. There is no hope. There is no escape. But everything has a beginning, a middle and an end. 98456’s time will come.
When dystopia collides with utopia, the fine balance of society teeters on the edge of collapse. The very question of existence is brought into question: who is more valuable, who deserves to live in paradise or be exiled to hell?
When survival demands a choice, will you fight for a better future, flee from hell… or simply give up? Simon and 98456 are poles apart, but then, as we all are, we are only human. Is that enough?
