One thing we learned the hard way while writing on @CryingSuns with @IanReiley is how important it is to playtest your narrative onboarding. Here is a small story about the infamous “Missing Cargo” ⤵️

Crying Suns starts with the main protagonist, a clone of a famous fleet admiral, being unfrozen by a strange AI. To sum it up roughly, he learns that he is in a super secret facility on a remote planet and that an AI awoke him because they didn’t receive their usual shipment.
So something might be very wrong out there because the empire is NEVER late. They need him to go take a look about what’s happening, explicitly telling him that it’s not about the shipment but about making contact with empire authorities.
