Underground, inside a Weavetech facility.
"How many woke up today?" A man asked a clipboard in hand as he walked down a long hallway with several attendants by his side.
With Weavetech being available to the masses, humans had gotten the opportunity to explore worlds far beyond the reach of common man. The strerry skies, the horrid dark, and planets with bountiful resources.
The universe was more connected now than ever. But this connection didn't come without a cost.
"No Awakened sir, only two dead" a young man in a Weavetech issued lab coat reported a look of dismay on his face.
The fast spread of stardust had gone unnoticed by man for generations, they were ignorant of the dangers of what laid before them. But now? It was all to glaring.
"Frustrating!!" The man with the clipboard cursed. He had a quota to meet, the number of dead infected by star dust and those successful was not matching up at all.
'Bringing so many weavepod to the slums, what genius idea!!'
