Orphan of the Void

Six hundred light-years away, the regular flickering of the HD69830 galaxy has been classified as a "natural phenomenon" by human observers. No one knows that it is the quantum solar panels of the three orbiting residential stations that have sent distress signals to the universe for twenty years in a 74.3-Minute cycle. This is a galaxy without planets. The circulation loom at the apex station is on the verge of shutting down, the void algae blanket at the ecological station has formed a dormant cocoon, and the stress index of the fusion forge at the industrial station has exploded. In 34 hours and 11 minutes, the resonant frequency that sustains 100,000 orphans will fall below the critical value. At the edge of the galaxy, the Predator ship engraved with the Split Star emblem is staring at this dying metal island. When the bonds of the void begin to collapse, and when the three-color light spots of the loom lose synchronization, how can this group of survivors, who have even forgotten the name of their hometown, breathe their last breath for civilization in the deathly silence of the universe?
