For decades, NASA has operated under the illusion of exploration. But behind the telescopes and fake public briefings lies its true purpose: surveillance, data suppression, and deep-space containment.Until one night something breaks through.A strange cloud-like structure appears in deep space. At first, it seems like a glitch until a man is seen reclining inside the mist, alongside a cosmic shark moving as if swimming through vapor. The anomaly is alive. And it's getting closer to Earth.Thirteen people across NASA's global network report seeing it. But when others look, there's nothing there. The anomaly only appears to these 13. And then it vanishes from public feeds entirely.Panic spreads. The anomaly has chosen them.NASA contacts the Galactic Council on Earth, a hidden advisory group with extraterrestrial ties. Their response is chilling: The man and the shark are no myth. They appear once every million planetary cycles. Not to warn. Not to destroy. But to observe.They are the final witnesses of dying planets.Before judgment is passed, the man seeks one soul just one who can awaken his hope for this world.If he finds no hope Earth falls.
