Over the last six years, the mercenary crew of Seven’s Plumbing has gained a name for themselves as efficient and unorthodox soldiers of misfortune. Consisting of an ever-scornful veteran, a cybernetically augmented engineer, a snarky alien medic, and the brazen Captain Seven, they survive by performing jobs that are either out of any government’s jurisdiction, or too dangerous for any sane group to do.

Nearly a month after their first encounter against the MDI, the mercenaries of Seven’s Plumbing and their shady new benefactor are once again on the heels of Trevor Grey and Doctor Karl von Ziegler. The nefarious duo have set their sights on an independent Fringe settlement called Tallagong, where they mutilate and experiment on the local populace in service of Chimera, and a terrifying new project.

In a world of rival AI corporations, love was never part of the code. Romeo and Juliet were on opposite sides of a tech war, but their secret connection changed everything. Their AIs watched. Learned. Adapted. Then the system crashed—and so did their world. Years later, a forgotten server flickers back to life. A lost file. A ghost in the machine. Are you still there? A darkly comic, cyberpunk reimagining of Shakespeare’s most famous tragedy, Error Code 404: Romeo and Juliet Rebooted is a story of love, deletion, and the dangerous question—can an AI truly die?

Following the events surrounding the MDI’s reign over Tallagong, one of the crew of Seven’s Plumbing has fallen under the scalpel of Doctor Karl von Ziegler. As Grey searches for a means of advancing his plot against the galaxy, the wicked doctor ruthlessly butchers his captive, hoping to finally perfect the use of Chimera.
