Dormant

They were called Scav-miners. Men and women who did the jobs no other would do. They labored for years with the promise of a better tomorrow with Life Lease contracts.

Under the aegis of 'Serve Your Time' there was no walking away, not for three men sent into the depths of Thetis City to find wanted criminal leaders among thousands of people who lie paralyzed—-dormant or dead from the last resort bio-weapon used on them.

Were they permanently dead? That was the question for someone, but not Teodor Lanz. He just needed to collect certain individuals and bring them back.
