Neon haze from the viewport smeared the asteroid field's edges. Kael's gloved fingers drummed the armrest, the Rusty Bolt's engines thrumming like a distant heartbeat. A ping sliced the quiet—sharp, insistent.

He squinted at the console. Distress beacon, faint, from Drift-7. 'Ghost rock,' he muttered, tasting rust on his tongue from recycled air. Protocol said ignore it. Paycheck waited on the core worlds. But the signal pulsed warmer, words forming: 'Stranded. Chapter one begins.'

Kael's gut twisted, sweat beading under his collar. He banked the ship, thrusters flaring blue against black void. The derelict loomed minutes later—sleek hull scarred by micro-meteors, no lights, just a faint glow from an open bay. Docking clamps hissed. 'One look,' he told himself, suiting up, mag-boots clanking on grated floors.

Inside, air thick with ozone and forgotten metal. Corridors curved like veins, walls etched with glowing script. Kael's helmet light caught a chamber: pedestal humming, holographic display flickering to life. Faces materialized—crew, eyes wide, mouths moving in sync. 'You came. Listen. The Weaver speaks futures in stories.'

His breath fogged the visor. The holo shifted, text scrolling: 'Chapter Two: The pilot ignores the warning. Stars unravel.' Kael's name appeared below. Heart slamming, he reached for the core—a crystalline orb, warm, vibrating. It whispered through his suit comms, voice silk over gravel: 'Stay. Let me weave your ending.'

Memories flooded: Lena's laugh echoing in empty bunks, her shuttle lost to the Drift years ago. Fingers trembled on the shutdown switch. The orb pulsed brighter, script racing: 'Chapter Three: He hesitates. She returns—in code.'

Kael froze. The walls hummed alive, lights blooming corridor-wide. The Weaver laughed softly. 'Choose your path, pilot. Or let me choose.'
