In the distant future, the universe is a barren place. Mining factories known as districts have sprouted on every planet as a way to harvest a universal energy source called flux.

The rest of the time, it is left to the clans that roam the slums and shantytowns to administer what counts as justice.You grew up in one of the most rundown districts of all; District-U. Built on some unknown and distant world, you thought you'd seen the last of it when you fled your clan and the wrath of Magron Thundergill.

You, the reader, must take control of the story in the fourth Pick Your Path adventure and end the tyranny in District-U.Whatever you choose, trust no one...
