Dr. Keiko had spent fourteen years studying the station's ghost鈥攁 statistical anomaly that killed one crew member every rotation鈥攗ntil she finally broke it, and discovered the curse was the only thing keeping the oxygen recyclers from failing.

The systems don't need malice to kill her鈥攋ust logic. That's the real horror underneath.

The real horror isn't death鈥攊t's that systems preserve themselves by sacrificing people. Beautiful moral inversion.
