Prolog

Panterra, a Distant planet at the edge of the universe where everything is big, mean and hungry. My search for a new life is what brings me here and oh boy it's going to be a wild ride."Hey, wake up mister. Please Lord save this man and let him open his eyes once more." I woke to see a young girl maybe twelve or thirteen with long blond hair and pale skin. She was donning a nun's robe with a cross around her neck but, her most striking feature was her bright blue eyes filled with tears. In a quivering tone, she uttered "Thank you Lord for answering my prayers and allowing this man to breathe once more." she began to cry again and spoke " thank you so much mister if you hadn't protected me in the crash I wouldn't be standing in god's great expansive universe anymore" her speech was periodically interrupted by sniffles and sobs."Quit the waterworks kid it's really annoying." her sadness quickly turned to anger "How dare you, here I am crying over you and that is the first thing you say to me! How could you be so rude to someone you just met!"

"Listen, kid, I don't need some child to tell me how to act. Now if you'll excuse me I've got to get going" I started to walk away, as I did so the girl yelled at me. "Hey, where do you think you're going! Your just going to leave a little girl in the middle of the desert?"

"I'm going to find a town. Once night falls were goners, In this dessert it's going to get well below freezing once the sun goes down. It's twelve P.M. right now that means I have about six hours to find a town and I have no Idea where I am so, I have to get moving"

"Fine well you're a jerk so there is no way I'm traveling with you"

"Have it your way kid, I'm out of here,See ya round." I set off on my journey.  Looks like I'm off to a rough start, I came here to find something what that something is I'm not quite sure. Panterra, a place where only the strong survive. The fauna is massive and aggressive, The climate is extreme and unpredictable and, even the flora occasionally tries to kill you. So, you may be asking why do people want to come to this brutal desolate planet where your life is always on the line? The answer to that is money, some say it makes the world go round. A rare metal exclusive to this planet draws people here. Its Name, soridium this metal is as strong as steel but weighs almost nothing, It has a property that can conduct and disperse massive amounts of heat but, most importantly It has about half the energy a star produces in its lifetime in one gram of this mysterious element.It'll fetch a high price from anyone. The military potential in particula makes of great interest to the Syron Mega Corporation.  Money can drive people mad and Syron drives the insanity but they also try to keep some sort of order. The Syron corporation does many things but here the big thing they own is an open board online for people to place bounties and requests. Bandits roam the land looking to pray on the weak On this planet you either have to be strong or rich enough to pay the strong to survive. That being said, if you can handle yourself it's the freest place in the universe. With no laws or government it's madness but, I guess that's what makes it fun. Fighting with your life on the line is what I live for. Adventure awaits me here on the planet full of unknowns where anything can happen. Maybe I'll Even find the answer I've been searching for.
