Note from myself: I absolutely love this tory, and in my opinion, it has one of the greatest premises I've seen in a sci fi story. I hope everyone who watches it enjoys!

    Good story, pity art doesn't match it... Random sci-fi ships don't fit the idea that Roxolan fleet was incredibly primitive, had no artificial lights, dingy, cramped and dirty. Wish imagery reflected that.

    Yeah, but they're chosen by AI, and AI is still isn't really "I"
