"Broadside: Uma's Journey"
Uma, a talented coffee roaster in a futuristic solarpunk city, lives in a world where augmented reality and anti-surveillance tech are the norm. She runs a unique coffee shop that melds traditional roasting with cutting-edge technology, offering a sanctuary amidst the city's vibrant, tech-dominated landscape.
The story begins with Uma receiving an enigmatic invitation to join "The Broadsiders," a secretive group aiming to resist the control of oppressive tech corporations. Initially skeptical but intrigued, Uma embarks on her first mission with the group, which involves infiltrating a corporate event to gather crucial intelligence. Here, she cleverly blends her coffee-making skills with newfound hacking abilities.
As Uma's involvement deepens, her coffee shop transforms into a hub for resistance activities. She uses her establishment to recruit new members and disseminate coded messages through her specially crafted coffee blends, fostering a community of like-minded individuals. However, the emergence of a rival group, backed by the corporations, introduces new dangers, leading to a tense confrontation where Uma's strategic and roasting expertise are pivotal.
