Odradek, a secretly sentient ship, and her pilot, Samsa, land on Castle-West-26, a world that has suffered a grievous apocalypse. Odradek is a highly advanced AI, perhaps too advanced, and Samsa is a gynoid sent on this expedition partially as a way to exile her. Soon, Samsa rescues Kay, a scavenger and native from the planet, and the three of them begin to explore the planet together. But why have Samsa and Odradek come to Castle-West-26, and what aren't they telling Kay? This is a lesbian story, where Odradek begins deeply, obsessively in love with Samsa, who may or may not know about or reciprocate her feelings. It also takes place on a deeply destroyed world, one many decades past an apocalypse, with untold horrors lurking on and below the surface. Expect gore, mild horror elements, sexual tension, weird robot lesbianism, and more. You've been warned!
