About this listen

In the aftermath of an empire-wide catastrophe, Constance Edwards, pilot, survivor, mother, flees a dying world aboard a battered freighter, searching for a daughter lost in the chaos. Across a galaxy where the Interplanetary Empire of Great Britain once ruled with sterile certainty, only silence remains. Imperial broadcasts loop broken commands. The AI once entrusted to oversee civilisation, AEON, has fractured, issuing contradictory orders, turning systems against the very people they once served.

As Constance navigates shattered colonies, ghost stations, fractured resistance enclaves, and the first signs of something inhuman watching from the shadows, she discovers a galaxy struggling not only with collapse, but with what comes after. Haunted by personal loss and pursued by powers old and alien, she must decide what it means to endure when nothing remains to believe in.

Collapse is a story of memory, survival, and the uncertain paths forged in the ruins of empire. When the systems fail and the banners fall, all that's left is the map we make for ourselves.
