In a crumbling future ruled by corporate greed, a young man named Sigurd takes a job with the Company—an untraceable organization that sends workers to abandoned moons to scavenge scrap. The pay is decent. The risk is “manageable.” But as crewmates start disappearing and the shadows grow teeth, Sigurd begins to uncover a truth buried beneath bureaucracy and blood: they’re not alone out there. Something ancient, hungry, and waiting is tied to the very scrap they’re sent to collect. Haunted by his own thoughts and hunted by something far worse, Sigurd documents the descent—because if no one makes it home, someone still has to know. Based on the viral horror game Lethal Company, this grounded, psychological sci-fi thriller follows one man’s fight to hold onto his mind when the system is built to erase him.
