Samantha Rhodes has competition on the Apocalypse Network rankings.

Krista Daniels, the amoral producer of Samantha's ruined regions show, secretly produces a separate show with a scarred beauty named Eve Desislava and her robotic dragon-genie. Scorching the ruined regions in her wake, Eve unknowingly challenges The Colossus of Rhodes nightly for ratings.

Haunted by the fake ghosts of dead loved ones, Eve stops at nothing to avenge their restless, holographic spirits. Samantha strives to liberate afflicted villagers in the ruined regions, until the inevitable moment where Krista elects for her two creations to clash in an inferno of fire and wonder, for the entertainment of so many sadistic viewers in Krista's unruined society. In the chaos of Eve's misguided fury, Samantha rediscovers the true enemy of her world in so many glassy eyed lizards and stars above glowing with wonder.

And in that moment of epiphany, thousands of man-made stars may fall from their midnight skies, when Samantha reveals the reality of her world to the ones she loves.
