In the year 2029, tech visionary David Sloan changes the world with an algorithm that pairs people with their true soulmates. The company he creates — Love Always — transforms society overnight, making him one of the richest men alive.
But when success spirals beyond his control, Sloan abandons Earth’s comforts and turns his eyes skyward. From the minds of the next generation, he builds the first space railways — vast celestial networks connecting worlds. There, among the stars, Sloan and his android companion Clive unlock the secret to immortality The Vortex — a spinning vessel that bends time and restores youth.
Yet in their quest to conquer death, they unleash something greater — a new species, born from graphene and cosmic radiation. Now, as the Graphites rise from the void, the future of humanity balances between love, power, and extinction.
The first step toward eternity begins with a single orbit.
