HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO?

Dr. Nolira Eck doesn’t know why the Bifrost is empty, but the missing crew is the least of her current problems. The ship is falling apart around her and with every struggle her new life in the stars is slowly fading from view.

A character from the science fiction podcast VAST Horizon. A woman in a damaged space suit, with scratches and blood. She has long dark hair, and her visible arm's skin is torn, revealing it to be robotic. Her helmet has a shattered visor.
Dr. Nolira Eck is an agronomist tasked with establishing agriculture in a new solar system, but when she wakes up on a now-empty colony ship, the whole of her plan disappears. The ship has been set adrift, with numerous mission-critical problems requiring immediate attendance outside of her area of expertise. Nolira is aided by the ship’s malfunctioning AI, which acts as her confidant and companion during the fight for survival. Yet she remains wholly unprepared for the struggles ahead. 

How far would you go for another chance?
