Summary
"Project Iron Lung is the scientific investigation we are running on moon AT-5. We believe it holds answers as to what caused the Quiet Rapture. We choose one convict to send down to search the ocean and take a few photos. Then we reel you up with the data you’ve collected. We get more information to work with, you get to walk free. Sounds like a fair deal, right?”
Or: Simon gets interviewed (interrogated) about Eden and its cult-like system, and has his suitability determined for the Iron Lung project.
Set before the game and the film.

Summary
"The file in front of Ava blinked with information that she ignored for now. The descent demanded her entire focus, and she communicated in sharp orders and confirmations with her crew.
But even when she did, she wouldn’t learn about his childhood, or his life in the early years of Eden, before the Quiet Rapture.
But that was where the convict’s story began, and so it should be told."
Or: An exploration of Simon's past through the years at Eden as he grows into his title of "The Butcher" while Ava slowly learns that maybe he's not as monstrous as he seems.
