Disabled Ornaran Freighter

Orbit of the Freighter Sanction Around the Fourth Planet

Freighter Sanction drifts in a decaying orbit, an old and battered Ornaran cargo vessel crippled by failing systems and intense solar flare interference. Its hull shows scars of neglect and damage, while the crew aboard wrestles with technical incompetence and growing desperation. The freighter’s interior atmosphere is tense and fraught with confusion, marked by fractured command and a chilling detachment from impending doom. As the ship spirals toward atmospheric entry, the haunting electromagnetic interference it emits disrupts rescue attempts. The vessel holds a mysterious, coveted cargo—Felicium—that drives the crew’s obsessive and conflicted priorities amidst the crisis. This isolated and failing freighter becomes a crucible of human frailty, addiction, and ethical turmoil, ultimately succumbing to fiery destruction while leaving survivors clinging to the last vestiges of hope and survival.
