The cold planet has mountains, valleys, and planes covered with snow. The planet has no sun.

Plasma is a semi-liquid that glows purple. Plasma is the fifth form of matter.

This highly unstable semi-liquid is a profitable source of electricity. It flows in underground plasma resources and occasionally springs to the surface, creating scarce purple lagoons in snow-covered fields.

Cyber-planets with their addiction to electricity are drawn to the resources of this planet, but an intense turbulent magnetic field surrounds them, making them uninhabitable by AI. Any digital processor is killed within a few hours.

A steampunk rig run by humans is the only inhabited place on the planet. All employees are men. They pride themselves on keeping the volatile rig functioning for centuries.

An unknown creature infects the rig, the security captain has to follow protocol and ask for backup from CASTEL, a private mega-bio-corporation that manages trades with the isolated rig.

CASTEL technologies, according to the rig employees, don't follow protocol.

Nothing is more Horror-Sci-Fi than WORK.
