Orb: On the Movements of the Earth - Episode 17 Story

Duraka, a bright young girl from a nomadic tribe, has lived her life with a singular goal: to escape the grip of poverty that claimed her father. Her unwavering pursuit of wealth leads her to a deserted city, where she stumbles upon a concealed manuscript left behind by Schmidt. The contents? A revolutionary concept known as the "Heliocentric Theory," which shakes the very foundation of belief. Sensing a golden opportunity, Duraka dreams of leveraging this knowledge for profit. However, her plans are complicated when she encounters Bishop Antoni and his entourage, who are also drawn to the manuscript. Conflict brews as their paths cross in this abandoned city.
