Wandering Stars

————Preface Seventy years have passed since the Federation was disintegrated. The star gates have corroded and the order is in pieces. The neon lights of the Free Star Zone, the steel of the corporate complex, and the dead silence of the ruins zone all take their own sides in the darkness - this is an era where even the rules are drifting. More wandering than the times, are the five people on the "Wanderer". Kane, the former "Stardust Hunter", carries a broken detector and drinks the past with wine, but remembers the temperature of the trigger on his fingertips. Ling, Cyborg No. 73, Had a knife and screwdriver hidden in his mechanical prosthetic arm. When he escaped from the experimental cabin, his back was still stained with culture fluid. Ah Xing, an orphan from Green Valley, clutches his father's stardust map, thinking that he can meet his mother if he finds it. Zero, the AI ​​in the radio, jazz is the soul, and the self-destruct program is hidden in the core. Maggie, a star-skeleton hybrid, with crystals that are both a curse and armor, turned around in front of the radical plan of the group, hiding in the illusion the half-filled bottle of water handed over by her teammates. They met because of a piece of resonant stardust, from the desert illusion to the ghost of Train 999, from the Silent Planet AI to the Lost Star Sector cycle. Stardust is never a magic lamp, but a mirror that reflects the obsessions of people's hearts. Some people seek resurrection, some seek domination, and some seek redemption. And they finally understood in the rust and starlight: the real stardust is the magazine handed to them in the hail of bullets, the cans shared together, and the hands that still hold tightly even though there are flames ahead. This is not a story about finding stardust, but a story about wanderers finding a "home" for each other on the ruins of the galaxy. The engine of the "Drifter" roared, and the patina of the ship cut through the nebula. The next stop is either the end or the new journey. In the Broken Galaxy, the brightest star is always in the eyes of those who travel with it.
