How much of yourself would you trade to keep the world moving?
This short prequel introduces Min and Lez-two ordinary people on a dying Earth where hope is rarer than clean air.
Bound by love and a mission that was never meant to be survivable, they are sent to locate the last remaining loader: a constructed being born from the events of When Platinum Rusts, powerful enough to alter humanity's future-if it can be found, and persuaded to help.
When they encounter someone who knows where Vist is, everything shifts.
What begins as an adventure becomes a moral fracture point-one choice capable of reshaping not just survival, but what survival is allowed to cost.
Act & Vist is a compact, character-driven technothriller about trust, sacrifice, and the moment when progress stops asking for permission.
Short, sharp, and emotionally grounded, this prequel stands on its own while opening the door to the Who Is Vist series.
