Forbidden World

In the distant reaches of space, a barren outpost hangs between two relentless suns, its silence broken only by the hum of ancient machinery and the thin, alien wind that sweeps across the cracked surface of Xarbia. The planet’s stark deserts and shadowed corridors give the settlement an eerie, timeless quality, as if the very rocks hold secrets older than the Federation itself. This isolated frontier feels both a refuge and a tomb, setting the stage for a story that balances cold, hard science with an ever‑present dread.

Enter Mike Colby, a lone space ranger tasked with overseeing the outpost’s fragile stability. With a practical mind and a quiet resolve, he navigates the thin line between protocol and improvisation, his duties amplified by the presence of SAM‑104, a loyal robot pilot whose steady voice offers both assistance and companionship in the endless solitude. Together they form a partnership built on trust, skill, and the shared understanding that every decision could tip the balance between survival and oblivion.

The outpost also houses a small cadre of scientists—Dr. Gordon Hauser and Dr. Barbara Glaser—who are pushing the boundaries of bacteriological genetics in hopes of creating a new food source for humanity. Their experiments whisper of ambition and curiosity, hinting at a world where the line between breakthrough and catastrophe is razor‑thin. The dynamics among the crew, marked by quiet humor, tentative alliances, and underlying tension, create a living tapestry that reflects the fragile hope blooming in an unforgiving environment.

Beneath the surface, however, an ancient and monstrous presence stirs, its appetite for flesh hinted at in the outpost’s low‑frequency alarms and the uneasy glances exchanged among the team. The looming threat casts a shadow over every routine task, turning ordinary moments into silent tests of courage. As the crew confronts the unknown, Forbidden World promises a tense, claustrophobic journey where the vast emptiness of space meets the visceral terror of a creature that could reshape the fate of the galaxy.
