Void Knights
A covert order operating in the shadows of 2091 Chicago. The city doesn't know they exist. That's the point.
The Series
Chicago, 2091. The city runs on neural links, android police, and total surveillance. Clones are property. AI must earn the right to be called alive. And beneath it all, a covert organization moves through the dark — protecting the people the system erases.
They are the Void Knights. Deniable operatives, investigators, and protectors — a chosen family with pasts they can't speak of and a mission bigger than any of them knows. Their war is against ASTRA Mining and Technology and its founder, Sarah Miller, whose ambitions reach farther than anyone suspects.
Some of the Knights aren't from here. Some aren't even from now. What they're really here to prevent — that's the story.
Void Knights shares a universe with SALOME//2093 — the noir trip-hop transmission project. Same shadows, same city, same war.
In Production
Void Knights is currently in production. First transmission: Episode 1 — "The ARCHERON," September 2026. Frames recovered from the edit below.
The ARCHERON
Episode 1 begins nowhere near Chicago. It begins aboard the ARCHERON — a deep-survey expedition carrier, four years out from home, sent to the 82 Eridani system to survey a distant super-Earth for platinum and signs of life.
The survey data says the planet is a routine prize. The survey data is wrong. What her crew finds waiting in the dark — buried, patient, and older than human history — will change what the word "home" means. None of them will complete the return journey. All of them will arrive somewhere.

SOMEONE CHOSE THAT NAME FOR A REASON.
The Knights
SOME RECORDS REDACTED
Nine operatives confirmed. Origins unverified. If you've seen any of these faces, you haven't.
A masked contractor who appears when the job is impossible and leaves before the questions start. His armor survives things armor shouldn't. Nobody knows who builds his equipment. Nobody asks twice.
Flies anything with a throttle, without ceremony and without missing. If the Knights need to be somewhere they can't be, Maeve is how they get there. She doesn't talk about where she learned.
The team's doctor, operating behind a quiet medical practice. Calm, practical, a doctor's hands. She once brought something back from very far away — and it hasn't finished with her yet.
If a signal moves through Chicago, Violeht has already heard it. She runs the Knights' ears — intercepts, comms, and the kind of intelligence that keeps people alive without them ever knowing.
Calm command presence in a black fedora. He leads like a man who has already lost everything he was afraid to lose — and decided to make it count. The operation runs on his word.
The first Void Knight. Operative, investigator, hunted by systems that would rather she didn't exist. Controlled on the outside, something else entirely underneath — and she can't explain why she needs to sing.
The Knights' resident scientist, with an amber optic where his right eye used to be. He has personally analyzed things that officially don't exist. His reports make people quiet.
Engineer first, operative when it matters. She builds and maintains hardware decades ahead of anything on the market — and she is exactly as dangerous in the field as she is at the bench.
Quiet hands, lean build, patient as his namesake. Xenobiology specialist and armorer — the one who knows what the weapons do and what the things they're aimed at are made of.
One Timeline At A Time
This universe does not branch. When a timeline is overwritten, the old one is gone — replaced, not paralleled. There have been three. You are living in the last one.
The world as it first happened. Resource wars. Clones as commodity. A singer in a surveilled city, recording songs no one was supposed to remember. It ended — but not the way you think.
Something was sent back. Small. Compact. Potent. It made the world kinder — and carried a flaw no one could see from inside it. This line, too, had to go.
2085: something falls out of the sky over Antarctica, and history quietly changes course. 2091: the Void Knights operate in Chicago. 2093: something is coming. Something evil awaits that brings with it the end of the world.
