Description

Three battle‑scarred veterans of Earth’s last wars awaken from a century of forced reconditioning to find themselves stranded on the red, windswept plains of Mars. The planet, now a quiet outpost for humanity’s fragile peace, hides a secret: an ancient, immortal Oligarchic regime that threatens the very hope of mankind. As the men struggle to remember who they once were, they must decide whether to trust the uncanny reality around them or the lingering nightmare of their own minds.

The New World they left behind erased conflict, reshaped identities, and silenced the notion of an enemy, but these three reluctant soldiers have been left outside that comfort. Their mission, assigned by a shadowy authority, forces them to confront the Oligarchs and the alien landscape that may hold the key to humanity’s future. Tension builds as they grapple with fading memories, lingering trauma, and the thin line between waking and dreaming on a world that feels both hostile and haunting.
