Memories
The year is 20xx. Two decades after a cataclysmic event caused by one of the world's most trusted heroes. Solstice, the master of flame and frost, lost control over her unparalleled power of fire and ice and sent the world as a whole into an ecological disaster. The sudden, planet-wide flash freezes and flash fires caused the immediate collapse of the global order. They killed a lowball estimate of 90% of the world's population within 24 hours. In the years that followed, the Solstice Pulses, as they came to be known, were less intense, but they could change from walls of fire to subzero, icy wind, and vice versa at a moment's notice.

Look to Your Star
The year is 2097. A lone figure bundled up in several layers of clothes walks over the snow covered land of what was once the Nevada desert just two decades earlier. Using his spear as a walking stick he approaches the top of a cliff, one that didn’t exist 18 years ago. He is still amazed at how much of the topography of what was his state has changed, let alone how different life is now.

Exoplanet 1
Alarms sounded all around Private Chester Montgomery. The bright red flashes from the alarms burned his eyes as he fought to open them for the first time in nearly a thousand years. His body tingled from having been in a medically induced coma that had preserved his body and mind all this time. Fresh air rushed into the glass tube that had kept him safe, the hiss of the air bringing some strength back to his body.

Kraya 1
“I’m afraid I have rather grave news,” Captain Fenn said as the crew filtered onto the command deck. Fists clenched by her sides, her blue-grey skin paler than normal. Twenty-three officers filed in and she had to find some way to tell them they were all going to die. Them, as well as the 300 civilians in her charge. Adrian, the only human on her crew, entered last, wearing his oxygen mask.
