Welcome to the next chapter of Mina’s Star, a near-future epic about humanity’s reckoning after the collapse of the logic of mutually assured destruction.

In this chapter we follow Lina Barakat, co-founder of the Charter, who sees her vision of a world without borders threatened by the return of a former ally with dangerous ambitions. As the Charter reshapes global power, she must decide whether to defend the system she built or potentially destroy it to save what it stands for.
