In a dystopian future where the rich have abandoned Earth, leaving the poor to survive in its toxic ruins, Arjun, a rebellious scientist, chooses an unthinkable escape, freezing himself deep in the Himalayas. Awakening centuries later in the year 2507, he finds a world even worse than before. The wealthy live in floating cities, while the ground-dwellers struggle for survival.

Determined to escape, Arjun joins an underground rebellion, The Groundborns, who seek to overthrow the elite. But his true goal is to find a spacecraft and leave Earth forever, searching for a peaceful planet to call home. As he helps plan an attack on a massive Sky Ark, a spacecraft built for planetary colonization, he becomes a symbol of hope and defiance, the Frozen Man who returned to challenge the rulers of the sky.

A high-stakes battle erupts as Arjun fights his way to the Ark, launching into space while enemy warships pursue him. In a thrilling climax, he activates an untested hyperjump, vanishing into the unknown. His fate is uncertain, but as he glimpses a distant, untouched world, one thing is clear, he is finally free.

The ship pierced through the polluted sky, heading toward the stars. Enemy ships followed, unleashing missiles. The shields flickered, and the ship trembled. Arjun rerouted power to the thrusters, pushing the Ark beyond its limits.


As he neared the edge of Earth's atmosphere, a massive warship blocked his path. He had one last trick, hyperjump coordinates stored in the ship's ancient database. With no time to verify the destination, he activated the sequence.


A deafening explosion rocked the ship as it vanished into the unknown. The Skylords watched in disbelief, the Frozen Man had escaped.


Somewhere in the endless cosmos, Arjun opened his eyes to a new world. A blue-green planet shimmered in the distance. A place untouched by war, greed, or corruption. His new home.


For the first time in centuries, he smiled. He was finally free.
