I Rise into a Daybreak

When a cosmic monstrosity swallowed the Earth, the survivors fled to hide among the stars. The scars on Kara's mind linger from infancy to adolescence. The monster follows them wherever they go. Kara knows this whatever the others say.
Then Kara and her family crash land near an empty mining town on an abandoned world. The pilot utters not a word, lost speechless in a terror Kara knows all too well.
No functional pilot? No escape. And something lurks in the rainy fog, watching them.
