The crew of Rivermark’s underground world has survived countless jobs, close calls, and impossible situations—but surviving is not the same as living. After years of pushing themselves beyond their limits, Luke Shaw finally decides enough is enough. Without giving them much of a choice, he forces the crew into a two-week vacation away from Rivermark, arranging a remote lodge far beyond the city’s controlled environment. For a group that has spent most of their lives surrounded by artificial climates, towering skyscrapers, and endless technology, leaving the city feels almost unnatural. Real forests, unpredictable weather, unfamiliar animals, and genuine silence are experiences they never expected to encounter. What begins as an unwanted break slowly becomes something they never realized they needed: a chance to exist without deadlines, danger, or survival constantly hanging over them. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is stop running.
