The overall structure over Glider is based on John Yorke's Five Act Structure and Freytag's Pyramid:

1. Exposition - introduction of the characters and setting

   - Inciting Incident - a single event signalling the beginning of the main conflict

2. Rising Action - the story builds up
3. Climax - the moment of greatest tension in the story
4. Falling actions - the consequences of the climax

   - Resolution - solution of the main conflict

5. Dénouement - winding up all plots

The “main story” of Glider Ink resolves about a conflict in the 'Space community, especially between the five main characters. There is a reason for a tension - and an alliance - between each of them, and there are too many differences to pick clear “sides”. The final stake is not anyone being “right”, but rather the integrity - and continued existence - of the 'Space as a community.

Spoiler: according to the themes this story should convey hope, so they will find a way to make it work. Not without changing themselves - and their relations to each other - the main five should be represented as three-dimensional characters.

Each character gets their own chapter, which mirrors the overall five-act structure describing a problem specific to them and their archetypes.
