In a dystopian future, where the world is starkly divided between the high-tech enclaves for the 'Elites' and sprawling, impoverished slums for the marginalized masses; 
Rico, a mere 'slumdog,' hits the jackpot — getting selected to become a 'stellar traveler,' an opportunity that will give him a chance to escape from the abominable environment and tap into the world of luxury and comfort. 

But unbeknownst to him, a sinister conspiracy had already been woven for the past two decades, hiding a devastating truth from the public eye — the sun was dying, and finding a new home for humanity became a matter of existential urgency. 

The plan was simple — "Evacuate the Elites and let the dirty poor 'wretches' perish with the planet itself."

Thus, Rico's journey starts; blissfully unaware that his fate is about to take a dramatic turn, one that'll change him completely! 

It'll test his patience and perseverance, push him beyond his capability, question his knowledge of reality, and turn his life upside down. 

But, at what cost?
