Description
Artemis travels to the distant moon of Oneiros aboard her ship, the Chimera, in search of organisms that can help alleviate Earth's global warming. However, as she journeys through space, it becomes clear that there are more sinister reasons for her mission. Accompanied by dryads and sophisticated AIs with synthetic bodies, nothing is quite as it seems on this journey. The lines between reality and desire begin to blur, leading Artemis to question the nature of identity and humanity itself. Is our existence solely defined by memories and experiences, or is there something more that sets us apart?
