Seeking guidance from Viola Ion, a spirit of ancestral intelligence, Orange discovers they’re trapped in a looping reality and must challenge the dominant narrative to break free from this constructed system. Along their journey, they encounter system glitches, unveil hidden truths, and confront critical issues such as digital inequality, surveillance, and power concentration.
