"Don't come back! Don't return!"

That was the last message Tom received from Earth before the signal died. Stranded 15 billion kilometers from the sun, he has enough supplies to survive alone for fifteen years.

But Tom doesn't want to die alone. He wants to conquer.
Desperate, Tom activates the ship’s biological livestock tank. He doesn't breed cattle; he clones himself. When the clone opens its eyes, Tom realizes he hasn't just created a helper, He has unlocked a Hive Mind.

One consciousness. Multiple bodies. Parallel processing.
More clone, more processing power

But power has a price. With twelve clones now awake, his fifteen-year food supply has shrunk to a death sentence: One year.
Forced into a corner, Tom must lead his clone army to the frozen, airless surface of Loshen Star. Armed only with 19th-century steam technology and sheer grit, he must ignite the fires of industry in absolute zero.

He is no longer just an astronaut. He is the Swarm. And he will turn this dead planet into a civilization of one.

If it was a coincidence, then it would be nothing, just two things happening to coincide.


​Doesn't this mean that the Destroyer Civilization has likely been keeping an eye on him?


​Ever since his side defeated the Purple Moon Civilization and intervened in the war between the Destroyer Civilization, the Red Star Alliance, and the Space-level Demonic Eye, rescuing the Red Star Alliance, he had entered the Destroyer Civilization's line of sight?


​Later, when he was besieged by the Destroyer Civilization and the Red Star Alliance came to his rescue, perhaps… it was merely the Destroyer Civilization using him as bait, trying to lure out the Red Star Alliance?
