Despite having an incurable sickness known as NIDS (thus forcing her to live within the confines of a space station), Maria Robotnik was a sweet, joyful, and innocent girl who one day hoped to be freed from her illness. Alongside her friend, Shadow the Hedgehog, they promised that when that time came, they'd enjoy a life on Earth together. However, an unfortunate series of events led to Maria's demise, and Shadow being separated from his friend forever. Yet not everything was it seemed, as 74 years after the incident on the Space Colony ARK, that once-sickly girl reawakens in the modern world.

Summary
The world called him a weapon.
She called him her friend.When the ARK fell silent, Maria refused to let the universe forget the boy who protected her.
Grief became invention. Devotion became something unrecognizable.
Every promise she made to bring him back pulled her further from what she was meant to be.There were no glass choir satellites yet, no black star containment, no grand design—only a child clutching a broken dream and calling it strength.
In the end, all she wanted was for the world to remember him.
But the universe does not remember gently.Star of Golden Shadow is the story that started as an idea and then became the wish that would break the world.
“Some stars are born to guide the lost—
and others burn simply because they cannot bear the dark.”

Summary
Maria wanted a friend. Gun wanted a weapon. Gerald wanted her wish fulfilled. Eight years of innocence, fracture, and loss forged Maria under endless surveillance, manipulation, and cruelty into Echo. Fourteen years of observation, silence, and ritual shaped Echo into Mira, a being who bends reality, defies death, and holds what they thought they could control. Every protocol failed. Every plan backfired. In the end, the universe itself answers to the consequences of their desires—because a child’s wish, when unstoppable, reshapes the world.

"I want my brother back, Abraham."
"Your...Your brother- You mean Project Shadow!?"
--
Maria Robotnik has lived for fifty years on the planet she once looked down upon from the ARK. She's had a fulfilling life, the medication she takes making her condition less life threatening and more chronic. Still, she's now in her 60s and she's not getting any younger. There's still one thing she wants more than anything. Her little brother. The reason she's still alive to begin with has been locked away all this time. He needs the chance to live a life of his own.
And it's hard to expect life to remain simple even when she does get him out. The world keeps turning and her cousin is still determined to take over it. Just as she and Shadow start to settle into a new normal, they have to fight for the world, though they're not alone in the fight.
And Shadow? Shadow is quickly learning that even in the new "normal" everything is somehow weirder than his life on the ARK. Especially when encountering a certain blue hedgehog.
