In a dystopian future, the city of Ironhold enforces harsh penalties for unpaid debts, stripping women of their freedom and assigning them to labor under powerful corporations. Karyn, a brilliant but struggling accountant, fell into debt after a medical crisis drained her savings. Sentenced to servitude by the state, she was acquired by Meat Holes, a firm that supplies skilled workers to elite clients. Fitted with a sleek compliance device—a high-tech bracelet that vibrates to signal tasks—Karyn was sent to a sprawling estate owned by a reclusive tech mogul, where she was expected to manage encrypted financial records under strict surveillance. 

The estate was a labyrinth of cold steel and guarded secrets, where Karyn’s every move was monitored. The compliance device buzzed incessantly, dictating her tasks, from decoding complex ledgers to cataloging rare artifacts. But Karyn noticed irregularities in the firm’s transactions, hinting at a black-market network funneling funds through Meat Holes. She befriended Lena, another debtor assigned to the estate, who shared her suspicions. Together, they devised a plan to exploit their access to the firm’s systems, quietly gathering evidence of illegal dealings while enduring the relentless demands of their overseers. 

Karyn and Lena’s covert investigation revealed Meat Holes’ role in a larger scheme to manipulate the city’s economy. Using her accounting expertise, Karyn embedded a coded message in a financial report, alerting an underground resistance group to the firm’s operations. As the mogul prepared to auction off their services to new clients, the resistance intervened, exposing the corruption and dismantling the compliance network. Karyn’s sharp mind and unyielding spirit turned her harrowing ordeal into a catalyst for change, sparking hope for others trapped in Ironhold’s oppressive system.
