Description:

In the year 2180, a company on Earth named Black-Star privately exudes corporate greed, and they’ve found other lifeforms in the universe through space exploration. They hope to advance medicine and technology by leaps and bounds through the amazing opportunities they’re seeking to exploit in space.

One of their ships named the Orpheus carries a crew to Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons, now that the company has set up a space station and laboratory there. Its sister ship, the Persephone, is on its way back from a planet named Hades with alien lifeforms collected there for experimentation. It was a disastrous trip with only one person leaving unscathed, a Black-Star employee who will do anything to be the man in charge.
