"Where does your loyalty lie?"
(Y/N), an emotional yet logical space science researcher, was thrown into a limbo when their research received rejection, much to their dismay. Deciding to give up space science to follow their passion for exploring explosives and weaponry, (Y/N) enrolled into the military as a product engineer for weapon design. (Y/N)'s fate will forever be changed upon meeting Stanley Snyder, the cold and calculating military officer.
After the petrification, the world hit the reset button, returning to square one. This begins the race to build civilisation back to where it once stood gloriously. However, with no governance as the world begins anew, ambitious leaders stepped forward to seize dominance over the new world.
Stuck between his childhood best friend and the kindred weapon engineer, Stanley must choose where his loyalty lies.
What is more important: World dominance or the simple curiosity to nudge humanity forward?
