One moment, Sardec stood on the surface of UBW-594244. A flash of light overtook his sight and he felt a slight stinging sensation amongst his skin. When his vision returned, he found himself in a new land entirely. Floors of sand, sun bleached metal structures, a tall mountain, and a large glowing tower in the distance. His H.U.D alerted him that his global positioning system was not receiving any signals and could not assist. He stepped forward and felt his feet lightly sink into the soft sand. His eyes were focused on the tall glowing tower in the distance and began to walk in its direction. Its sli…

Three computer operations worked the large console at the UNCC camp. Kellogg entered the room with PT003. "What have we found?" Kellogg asked. "There is still a lot we haven't deciphered yet", explained the first operator. "But so far we have trivial things like protocols, health issues like diseases, breakouts, something about a 6066, and it goes on. Nothing that I can say is really say can help us." "You said 'disease'. Are there elements on UBW that they consider hazardous?"
"From the looks of it, no. Nothing on this world that seems lethal."
"Valcode, sir!" Spoke the second operator. "I'm getting something real big here. It's showing information regard…

UNCC soldiers were gathered around. Valcode Kellogg and Julian Sardec stood in the middle. Kellogg began to speak.
"Alright, men. Today, we begin our campaign. To my side is our volunteer, Julian Sardec. He has agreed to enter The Archive and retrieve whatever intel he can possibly get, so we may at last learn the secrets of our oppressors. As you know, this is an underground network we have constructed, and have gained access to the city power grid undetected. Nikida will disable cause a power surge connected to The Archive. This will disorient the security guards there, allowing for Julian here to enter among their ran…

Sardec, now at the base of the ladder beneath the manhole, has found himself in a dark tunnel. Having no portable light source, he held his Passer forward as he slowly walked forward into the darkness. Relying on the glow of the Passer, Sardec can barely see two feet in front of him, bumping into a wall. He felt around the wall, hugging it as he walked forward and noticing a sharp turn. After a few more minutes of blindly navigating through the tunnels, he is overwhelmed by a sudden flash of ceiling lights. As his eyes adjust to the sudden stimulation, he sees armored guards facing their weapons at him.
"Stand down" one of them shouted.
A sharp bitt…

UBW-594244, once the final refuge for humankind, now the capital of the Kartinava race. Where one could come feel safe and ponder their thoughts, now in possession by the enemy. All human territory remaining are facilities called Human Farms, where man is monitored like cattle. Their choices are ultimately meaningless, for they all share the same fate--candidates for the Great Assignment, where their future is chosen by the authorities, may they become possessed by an individual parasitic worm, chosen to assist in human repopulation, or become a means of entertainment.
Among the individuals who were merrily g…
