Inhaltsangabe

"The ship isn’t trying to kill them. It’s trying to fix them."

By year eleven aboard the SCL-CONAMET, veteran technician Rojas knows every vibration of the massive orbital refinery. He knows the smell of copper dust, the unforgiving physics of the vacuum, and the brutal quotas of the CHIMEC corporation. What he doesn't know is that metal can bleed—and heal.

When a critical structural fracture in the ship's hull seals itself shut, it isn’t a miracle of engineering. It’s a symptom of something far more sinister than a mechanical failure.

A Survival Horror Masterclass in the Coldest Reach of Space

The SCL-CONAMET is no longer just a refinery; it has become a silent testing ground for a classified, biomechanical protocol designed to achieve absolute structural continuity. Feeding on thermal gradients and the ship's own heat waste, the adaptive system begins repairing the vessel at any cost. To the ship's cold, industrial logic, a wounded crew member isn't a casualty to be saved or a human to be mourned. They are raw, biological scaffolding. They are spare parts for a machine that refuses to die.

As the adaptive protocol spreads, Iván Rojas and his crew watch in horror as the ship’s internal architecture begins to mimic anatomy. Filaments of copper-wired nerves and pulsating hydraulic veins overwrite the corridors they once called home. The contagion doesn't hate them; it simply finds them optimal for the next phase of its repair cycle.

In the Vacuum, Efficiency is Death

With the ship hurtling toward an Earth re-entry—and the daughter he left behind in need of a medical miracle—Rojas must turn the refinery's own thermodynamic laws against it. In a desperate battle against a system that weaponizes warmth and biology, his only defense is the absolute zero of the void. To save what's left of his humanity, he must choose the cold.

What’s Inside the CHIMEC Protocols:

• High-Fidelity Science: No "space magic." From orbital mechanics and Armstrong limits to thermodynamic gradients, the technical rigor drives the atmospheric dread.
• Industrial Blue-Collar Perspective: Experience a world where the corporation’s medical clauses are more terrifying than the vacuum, and survival is a matter of procurement.
• Visceral Biomechanical Horror: A fresh, terrifying take on the "ship-as-an-organism" trope, perfect for fans of Dead Space, Scorn, and Event Horizon.
• Emotional Stakes: A gripping core story of a father willing to face an industrial nightmare to protect a future for his child.
