Anyone Can Steal The Spotlight
In this episode, we find ourselves aboard the CSV Marietta’s Requiem - a Civilian Space Vehicle retrofitted as a diplomatic auditorium, currently in high orbit above Tau Ceti f. The vessel hosts the Interstellar Peace Gala, a high-profile cultural summit orchestrated to symbolise interspecies unity and reinforce the fragile trust between UFR member factions and former enemies.
The centrepiece of this gala is “Harmony Beyond Stars”, an original multisensory opera composed by a renowned Spacer artist. Delegates from across the UFR and its allies are gathered in ceremonial finery, seated in separate viewing galleries - and everyone is watching everyone else.
But beneath the music, something sharp stirs.
Someone in this room plans to sabotage the peace.
But remember Anything Could Happen…
