7DRL 2024 Entry - Happy 20th Anniversary!

FAILED ATTEMPT at 7DRL 2024. I'm sad to say that I couldn't find enough time during the week to complete my entry to a satisfactory degree. I have still released what was done within the 7DRL timeframe

Ark Remnants

Daughter of the Void

In the shadowed expanse of space, the remnants of humanity's last hope drift silently—the Arks, colossal vessels once brimming with life and promise, now lie in ruin, shattered by an unforgiving alien onslaught. 

Among the stars wanders Aria, a young scavenger burdened by her family's colossal debt to the ruthless Forces of the Motherworld. Her fate, tethered to the debris of the past, guides her to the ghostly husks of these once-majestic Arks. But can she find the heart of the Ark, the artifact that would surely fulfill her debt and set her free?

"Ark Remnants: Daughter of the Void" follows Aria's perilous journey across the void. Alone but undeterred, she must navigate through the haunted silence of the Arks, unearthing technology and secrets long buried. Each fragment of technology, each whisper of the past, brings her one step closer to salvation—or deeper into the clutches of cosmic desolation.

But the Arks are not as dead as they seem. Echoes of their former inhabitants linger, entwined with the malevolent shadows of alien marauders still patrolling the wreckage. Aria finds herself caught between the relentless pursuit of the Motherworld's enforcers and the lurking danger of alien remnants. Her journey is more than a quest for survival—it's a fight for redemption, a search for lost humanity, and a quest to pay a debt that was never hers to bear.

Through the desolate beauty of the cosmos, "Ark Remnants: Daughter of the Void" explores themes of legacy, redemption, and the indomitable human spirit. Will Aria uncover the truth behind the Arks' downfall and clear her family's name, or will she become yet another forgotten relic in the vastness of space? The remnants of the past hold the key, and only through the eyes of the last heiress can the fate of humanity's legacy be revealed.
