Hope and Survival as Themes

I'm glad you're here.

Science fiction roleplaying often begins with collapse. A world ends. A system fails. The story picks up with those who remain. What happens next depends on what they choose to believe still matters.

Hope isn’t optimism. It’s the decision to keep trying. A character plants seeds in poisoned soil, not because it will work, but because someone might need that food. A mechanic keeps fixing a failing ship because it holds a family together. A child learns old songs from a language no one remembers speaking. These stories aren’t about saving everything. They’re about refusing to let it all disappear.

Survival makes every choice meaningful. How much do you carry? Who do you trust? What do you pass on, and what do you let go? Let scarcity create pressure without removing possibility. Let characters try, and fail, and try again.

If you want futures that still fight for something better, the science fiction collection’s ready: lightspress.com/discover.

I hope you're doing well today,
