Nina Szubur lives in the near future when she learns that her beloved Inanna has been trapped in the underground depths of the city Uruk. Nina descends into this subterranean world to mount a rescue mission. She navigates through corridors, elevators, chambers, and gardens that form an elaborate maze beneath the surface. During her journey spanning several days, Nina discovers that everything she believed about her world was false. The reality she knew dissolves into an intricate web of lies and dependencies. Her actions will determine not only whether Inanna survives, but whether all the inhabitants of Uruk live or die. The underground realm becomes a testing ground where Nina must confront fundamental questions about existence itself. This retelling draws from the ancient Sumerian myth of the goddess imprisoned in the land of the dead, transforming the classical story into a futuristic setting that blends contemporary science fiction with mythological themes.
