An intergalactic witch named Aguira has been captured and sentenced to death for her dreadful crimes, but a spaceship transporting Aguira to her execution was struck by an asteroid. To her surprise, the asteroid was rich in Xyanide, a mythical substance known for its abilities to make an exposed person's thoughts become reality. Taking advantage of the situation, the witch uses her new powers to create her own alternate universe as a tool to aid her escape and spread her destructive influence. It is up to the escort pilot Drake to try and stop the evil Aguira from accomplishing her goals and to carry out the sentence.

gollark: Oh, AND potatOS has better logging now, wyatt.
gollark: I will forever miss its tinted glasses, though. I had one with thorns and stuff, and they have no durability and look extremely cool. I got an enchanted book with the enchants on it, but it's just... not the same.
gollark: They are not universally unique between servers etc.
gollark: > as in, each installation has a different UUID?yeß
