Synopsis

   
The Earth year is 877427
A.D. It is eight hundred seventy five thousand three hundred and sixty four
Earth years after the Great Nuclear War of 2063 A.D. catapulted the planet
Earth into a nuclear winter. Cruise
Liberty, Prince of the Kingdom of the Twelve Galaxies Cluster, travels
across outer space looking for a portal that transported his older brother to
the other side of the universe. He has reason to believe that his brother is in
danger, or is dead. Years before, Cruz’s brother went searching for a legendary
relic that contains information to their origin, and how to get back to the
Milky Way Galaxy. Once the Milky Way is found, it could lead them back to
Earth’s Solar System and subsequently to the planet of their ancestors, Earth.

   
One
hundred years of nuclear winter and radioactivity has subsided. Survivors roam
the earth in gangs, groups and small armies. It was survival of the strongest.
The part of the world’s population that was left migrated south towards the
equator and below, to start building again.

   
The year
2235 AD brought another war, which destroyed most of the civilization that
remained. Five thousand years later a new monarchy springs up over the whole
earth. The reconstruction was speedy. With the technology that had not been
totally lost, civilization once again rose to populate the earth.

Two more thousand years passed before mankind took to the stars.
By then, the population of the earth had increased to nearly thirty billion
people. Many ethnic groups virtually vanished from off the face of the earth
due to mass genocides megalomaniac warlords committed. Mixed and interracial marriages
had resulted in a colorful blend of diverse populations.

   
Races
that wanted to preserve their purity ethnicity stayed hidden deep in jungles
and remote mountain ranges continuing to survive, producing unsullied offspring
of their races. These were some of the black African peoples, the Native
American Indians, and the Northern European Caucasians. The Asians had blended
into one race they called the “yellow” race, although they were hardly yellow
at all.
 

   
Humans
started to colonize Mars and even Venus. Mars had been terraformed already
while Venus was still being explored. It was discovered that for thousands of years
scientists had been mistaken about Venus. Despite all of the theories that
Venus was too hot to support human life, when the first explorers finally
arrived there, they found that the climate was warmer than that of Earth,
except for the clouds and gases in the upper atmosphere. These clouds had been hiding
the true Venus from mankind all along.

  
The cloudy
atmosphere was reduced by 75% percent due to terraforming procedures. This
allowed the heat to escape from the surface of the planet to bring the
temperature down to a hundred and twenty degrees at the equator in most parts.
The process created temperate and tropical zones similar to Earth’s.

   
Freezing
large man made rivers and lakes and inducing artificial snow created North and
South Poles. The water for these rivers and lakes was created after gigantic space
barges full of water had been transported to the poles and set to evaporate.
The clouds were then subsequently seeded with genetically modified mushroom
spores and precipitation was birthed. The naturally strong winds of Venus
helped in creating blizzards at the poles, which ensured that the snow had
spread out in all directions.

   
Weather
technology had survived both wars. The knowledge of weather control contributed
immensely to making Venus habitable and ready for colonization on most of its
two great continents. Islands were developed on the oceans that had been
created after salt water had been brought in giant “water trains” to Venus and
reproduced using craters.
 
Through
the technology of combustible precipitation, more water was created to fill the
seas and keep them full.

   
By the year
9000 AD, humans had made both Venus and Mars habitable and man was once again
reaching out to the next planet, the giant Jupiter. The Jupiter mission was a
failure due to the high-velocity winds and heavy gravity. The explorer team of
twenty-five was lost. The same proved true for Saturn and Neptune, and their
moons.

  
The populations
of Earth, Venus and Mars were growing. By the year 12000 AD, man had sent the
first mega spaceship on a very long trip with five thousand people aboard 10.5
light-years to colonize the solar system, Epsilon Eridani. It took ten
generations in space for them to arrive. Unfortunately, it had only one planet
in orbit around it, but the colony survived.
 
Two hundred years time had passed and the
lithosphere of the planet that they had named Adam I was completely terraformed
and was being colonized from Earth, Mars and Venus. Mankind again needed to
reach out even further to the stars.

   
The next
target was Giliese 876, a solar system that had four planets, one of which was
so Earth-like that only a minimum of terraforming was necessary to transform it
into a paradise. Giliese was 5.8 light-years beyond Epsilon Eridani, and so, as
more colonists from the Earth, Mars and Venus arrived on Adam I, ships of
families left to colonize the new paradise they named “Eve I”. Both new planets
had moons that controlled their tides like Earth.

   
In the Earth
year of 13980, war broke out between Earth and Mars. The Martian government
wanted to break away from the Triad Planetary Union that the ruling monarch on
Earth had formed. The other two colony planets Adam I and Eve I were too far
away to get involved. The governor of Venus, Darkus Manhijik, who was an evil sly
ruler, then saw his chance to become ruler of all three worlds. Increase in the
speed of space travel would now make it possible to reach out and conquer the
two newer colony planets after he had consolidated his power.

   
Darkus
Manhijik declared all out war on King Seraph of Earth. Darkus had been
stockpiling cosmoton nuclear weapons on Venus for years. Just one of these
nuclear bombs could devastate a small country the size of what was once Texas.
Darius sent his pre-emptive strike force of one hundred high-powered nuclear
rockets to Earth. But before they landed to wreak their carnage, King Seraph’s
government’s monitors detected the rockets when they were half way, and
retaliated with more nuclear rockets.

   
In order to make sure the
ruler of Mars, Queen
Xiomar,
did not take advantage and try to win the war by default, King
Seraph ordered a nuclear strike on Mars also.

Queen Xiomar had decided
only to use nuclear weapons when all else failed. “We’ve tried everything
else,” she pleaded with her Commodore. “Now we’re under nuclear attack.”

   
“We must retaliate, sad to
say,” replies Henrick. “Our counter measures may stop most of their rockets, but
many of our cities will fall.”

   
Queen Xiomar and her
predecessors had made certain that they had strong defenses; the strongest of
all the Triad Planetary Union. The defense measures were successful in stopping
the greater part of King Seraph’s nuclear assault, but the planet suffered
great losses, death and destruction in many of the unprotected outlying
provinces.

   
Darkus Manhijik hadn’t been
so fortunate. He and his capital were destroyed and King Seraph’s bombs also
melted both ice caps, which caused flooding. Venus was devastated. Survivors struggled
here and there on the planet to try to make sense out of what had just happened
in their Apocalypse.

   
Earth had been hit from both
sides. Her defensive measures were not enough to hold back the devastating
nuclear rockets of both Venus and Mars. The war was over and Queen Xiomar was
now the new ruler of the “New Planetary Triad”, which is what she changed the
name to after taking power.

   
Through communications
satellites that the Queen had set up in order to communicate with the “outer
colonies” as she called them, both Adam I and Eve I received the news. However,
due to the slow speed of communication, it was about ten and fifteen years
respectively before they heard.

   
The Queen of the Planetary
Triad was a benign ruler, but for the next fifty years of her rule, she
concentrated on building Mars back up again and changed the name of the planet
to
Sophia
. She had made trips during
her rule, to both Earth and Venus to begin reconstruction. She sent teams to
help restore as much as they could, but virtually kept them in the dark ages.
She did not allow any armies or long-range weapons of mass destruction. She let
them build their civilization back up again, even electronically, but limited
their use of Cyber Space to their own planets. Interplanetary communication was
outlawed for Venus and Earth. The Queen of Mars reigned supreme.

   
It was not until another
hundred and fifty years later that the nuclear winter of Earth completely dissipated.
Venus’s was much shorter at fifty, and the ice caps had formed again due to the
drop in temperature over the whole planet.

   
Time passed and it wasn’t
long before Queen Xiomi the Divine, the daughter of Xiomar, became the new
Queen. Xiomi, having been an ardent student of Astronomy, graduated from the
highest university on Sophia with flying colors. During the tenth year of her reign,
she sent out ships to colonize planets in the Alpha Centari star system.
      

   
Utilizing knowledge in the
ancient writings called “The Pure Scriptures of Light,” each city-sized ship
was like a Noah’s Ark including not only the people and supplies, but also two
of every species of animal, every beneficial insect and also seedlings from
every kind of plant, tree and flower. These collections of biological treasures
for survival also included relics of literature, art, culture, technology and
architect. Queen Xiomi the Divine had a lot of insight and foresight into the
future and wanted to ensure the survival and prosperity of civilizations to
come.

   
The computer technology sent
out with the colonists contained information stored which took up nine hundred
yottabytes for each computer unit and was able to share with any other devices within
communication range.

   
It wasn’t long before the
rulers of “Adam I” and “Eve I” began sending colonists to other planets and
other star systems further and further away. It became increasingly impossible
to keep in touch with Sophia, Earth and Venus.

   
By the year of 25,000 AD,
all planetary colonies had completely stopped using the Earth’s calendar and
had devised their own, based upon their own star systems and suns. Like Queen
Xiomi the Divine, they also had loaded up their giant ships with precious cargo
that contained all they needed to preserve their civilizations and cultures.

   
Tens of thousands more years
passed and humans spread out more and more into the Galaxy and became
increasingly alienated from each other.

   
By the year 65,000 AD by
Earth’s solar system standard, humans had extensively populated the Milky Way Galaxy
and were headed out even further to colonize the Andromeda Galaxy, it being the
closest.

   
The planets that developed Megatonic
Drive were able to exceed twenty times the speed of light. Unlike Albert
Einstein’s theories, there was no displacement in time; time did not slow down.
There had, however, been reckless incidents of warps being torn open and ships
that were pulled into them that were never to be seen again. The popular and
accepted theory was that they appeared at the other end of the universe in some
unknown and uncharted star system, or either in the past or the future. Many of
the scientists had argued, however, that they simply got sucked into black
holes.

   
Inter-galactic travel had
become more common and widespread. As time passed, the original names of stars
and galaxies had been lost, except for rare records and files that had been
kept and passed down, and the original records kept on Earth, Venus and Sophia.
Genealogies were almost impossible to trace, and as much as humans wanted to
learn their own origins, it became more and more complicated and tedious for
them to the point of giving up.
