A Sci-Fi Novella of Language, Rebellion, and the Power of Memory

In a universe ruled by silence and controlled by edits, remembering the truth can be an act of war.

Virelle was raised by the Crown, trained to erase histories, rewrite planets, and command fleets that leave no memory behind. But when a forgotten voice—a living artifact of an erased civilization—whispers her true name, Virelle defects.

She doesn't run with guns. She runs with stories.

Clockwork Stars is a quiet revolution: a steampunk-infused space opera where rebellion doesn't scream—it rewrites. As Virelle gathers a fleet of defectors, poets, saboteurs, and ghosts of erased worlds, she wages war not through force, but through narrative. Her greatest weapon is not firepower—it's the return of forbidden memory.

With every system she frees, every page she restores, the universe begins to remember itself—and the Crown begins to unravel.

But memory is a dangerous thing. And the truth, once spoken, does not forget.
