Orion Ang0157

Approaching middle age in a human lifetime of experience, Sev coded as spirit Orion Ang0157, had been assigned to the third rock out from a star in the Orion arm of the Milky Way. Adamantly petitioning release from duty, with a deeply felt longing for home, he’s required to participate in a mission evaluation. Reviewing the human evolutionary track, his long list of grievances and the species’ current status, he finds little hope—he simply wants to drop the file. Having petitioned the looming climate challenge as an opportunity to evolve towards global cooperation, Sev finds himself blindsided by peoples’ non-response to biosphere care. Remembering he proposed the challenge out of youthful idealism, he now feels overwhelming responsibility, seeing that request as a total mistake. When the supervisor asks for further ideas, citing a petition from Upper Floor, he struggles but blurts out his list of everything from a new religion to a charismatic climate hero. As Upper Floor considers the options Sev must decide on whether to give humanity more time to act.
