Drossel treats the end of the world like a scheduling problem. Every episode is three minutes of her and Gedächtnis solving castle malfunctions with the deadpan efficiency of people who stopped caring about the war centuries ago. The joke isn't that civilization is collapsing around them, it's that they have a meeting about it at 2 PM.

On an ordinary planet in the far future, humanity has been locked in a long war with the Hyperion, a race of mechanical aristocrats. Drossel, a Hyperion and daughter of the Duke von Flügel, lives with her butler Gedächtnis in the Tower of Tempest, sealed away from the outside world. Their days go to handling whatever troubles crop up in their towering castle while they wait for the stars to line up again. The result is a short sci-fi comedy in three episodes.
