Hope is a ship where dreams are rationed, bodies are counted as cargo, and survival is measured in silence.
Redael is a chef, not a fighter. An anxious, moral man trapped aboard a floating underworld ruled by a brutal captain, watched by ever-present eyes, and powered by fear disguised as order. On Hope, AI tracks movement, gangs enforce territory, and diamonds move through blood-soaked hands. Life is cheap. Obedience is currency.
When Redael stumbles into a hunt for a cursed diamond and discovers the truth behind the ship's human cargo, he is forced into a role he never wanted. Feeding the starving becomes an act of rebellion. Kindness becomes leverage. Trust becomes dangerous.
As alliances fracture and betrayals close in, Redael learns that power does not arrive with a crown. It arrives when you are no longer allowed to be weak.
Hope sinks.
What survives must learn to live with what it has done.
A gritty, visceral descent inspired by Blade Runner 2049, Children of Men, and the moral weight of stories like Berserk, HOPE is a dark sci-fi thriller about control, conscience, and the cost of staying human in a world designed to erase you.
