Jo worked as a mechanic in the repair hangar of Mj?lner Base, a structure rooted ages ago on one of the asteroids in the Kuiper Belt. From here, the marauding Invaders set forth on their predatory expeditions to the farthest reaches of the universe. Yet, Jo had never ventured beyond the base''s confines. In his three-decade life, his world comprised only the hangar, the employee canteen, the residential quarters for technical staff, and occasionally, a glimpse of the starry sky above the retractable roof of the landing pad. This mesmerizing view of the starlit expanse offered a momentary escape from the grim reality.
