After being court martialed for not following orders, ex-captain Alois Dorn is sent into stasis as an optional way to get out of his sentence. 1000 years after he went into stasis, he awakens to see his homeland turned into a civilization that can no longer reach the stars, and focuses on escaping the horrors they see every day due to the actions of an elite that he volunteered to fight all those years ago. Seeing this, he steels himself, and begins an insurgency to retake his home from those who only seek to use his people to squeeze as much wealth from them as possible.
