When he is not working on the Integral, D503 visits with his stateappointed lover O90 and spends time with his friend R13, a poet who reads his works at executions. On a walk with O90, D503 meets a freespirited woman named I330, who flirts with him and eventually convinces him to transgress the rules he has followed his whole life. Although he plans to turn her over to authorities, he cannot bring himself to betray her trust, and begins to have dreams for the first time in his life. Struggling to balance his duty to the state with his strange new feelings, D503 moves closer and closer to the limits of law and life.Since our inception in 2020, Mint Editions has kept sustainability and innovation at the forefront of our mission.
