The world has ended and life today is far different from how it once was. Earth isn't in threat of overpopulation anymore, if anything there's almost the risk of the opposite. Mankind live bundled together in large cities called Metropolises. They're found scattered across the globe, some based around cities that was once important, some built in the high of the mountains and others just right smack in the middle of nowhere; this is how we have survived. In the early years of the 21st century the tensions between what was then called America and both North Korea and the Middle Eastern countries came to an all time high. Accusations of weapons of mass destruction were thrown around and people were stressed, scared and starting to seek shelters from the impending nuclear war. But it wasn't a nuclear warhead hitting another country that set the world in motion - that made a worldwide chaos break out - it was an asteroid, not quiet large enough to destroy the Earth but large enough to throw the complete world order out of balance. Polymea collided with the Earth in the Atlantic Ocean, threw up immense volumes of water and dust into the atmosphere and caused ripples in the Earth's crust that made their way long into the Euro-Asian continent. It devastated the world's economy as the countries races to rebuild and save their people, but it was all for nothing. The asteroids effects had only just begun. Polymea had opened the box of Pandora and released a plague on the people of Earth of unmatched proportions. Today we stand in a world torn apart by war, hatred and fear. Hope is inexistent and all we can do is to try live on and rebuild the world that we have lost. |
