The sky above Rho-7 was the color of old blood—dusty red and bruised purple—stretching over a horizon littered with scrap-metal spires and bone-dry mesas. Life on this rimworld was survival first, philosophy second. But Kael had always lived in reverse.
They called him a dreamer, a fool, sometimes worse. But Kael believed in humankind—not as it was, broken and clinging to rusted outposts on forgotten planets—but as it could be. Stronger. Smarter. Unafraid of change. His own body bore quiet testimony: reinforced spine, magnetic fingertips, lungs adapted for poison air. Not monstrosities, but enhancements. Evolution, by his own hand.
Kael Drayven was born in the underbelly of Thalos Spire, a crumbling orbital colony that once orbited Earth but had long since fallen into disrepair and obscurity. It was a place where air was rationed, flesh was currency, and survival meant trading pieces of yourself—sometimes literally.
He fled to Rho-7, in hopes of a new beginning. A blank slate.
