about

Deepest fears realized - the AI has gone offline - and whether or not sentience is at play - the net result is that the super-enhanced root systems of hybridized plants around the world have all but locked down groundwater supplies. Surface plants have died off. Root system development below ground is happening at an astounding rate - far beyond comprehension. Inside of a year it is clear there will be no further plant based foods possible. Riots have broken out across the planet as water supplies disappear, believed to be consumed at impossible rates by the super-root-nano-Ai systems.

Essentially - this is the end-game. We tinkered, we lost. Escape from the planet is humanity's only hope. An international consortium of scientists, government representatives and industry leaders is hastily formed to plan humanity's one possible escape - a journey into space.

Soon after - The Lottery takes place. Who of the 16 billion persons will go? Those who do not face certain death. Those who do - unknown. Families, communities, cities and countries - torn apart by a choice that only 50,000 Travellers must make.
