Acting Aloof

A world without gods struggles against cunning and dangerous monsters from another realm, teetering on the brink of collapse—until… Silvanus never expected to die at the peak of his glory. He was on stage one second, accepting his third consecutive Best Actor award. The next, he was dead—crushed by a falling glass stage light in a tragically ungraceful demise. But the worst part was yet to come. He didn't indeed die. Instead, he woke up in an entirely different world, one on the verge of being swallowed by darkness due to an overwhelming invasion of monstrous creatures. [Beep—Acting System activated!

Life aboard a spaceship isn't always lasers and glory. Sometimes, it's just a bunch of misfits trying to survive the void... without killing each other. They're not heroes. Not soldiers. Not even criminals-at least, not officially. Just a crew of unpredictable aliens, each with baggage heavier than their firepower, stuck in close quarters somewhere between nowhere and nothing. Then there's Akira. He didn't ask for this ride, but now he's on it-and things are about to get weirder than Earth ever prepared him for. A grounded journey through deep space , tension, quiet moments, and the kind of unspoken bonds that form when you're lightyears from home.
