Could do without the all bold body text, but a pretty good tale with a twist on getting infected as a form of salvation from suffering. That's a cool take.

I don't really see how this fits the theme. I guess you could say that the uprising slaves are an unlikely alliance, but that doesn't feel developed enough for me to give this very high marks on adherence to theme.

I'm also not really sure how this fits into OPR's universe. I assume (both from the title and the technology level) that this is supposed to be a Grimdark Future entry, but I don't recognize any of the factions in the story.

Thanks for submitting.
