Awakening After Centuries
Over five centuries ago, alien invaders breached the world of Xena, bringing the indigenous population to the brink of extinction.
Amidst this apocalypse, a cadre of awakened warriors rose, revered as beacons of hope and guardians of their homeland.
Five centuries later, Rachel emerges laboriously from a cryogenic chamber, only to discover that not only has the world failed to recover, it has spiraled deeper into chaos.
The once stalwart beacons have crumbled; hope has dissolved into the ether.
The environment lies in ruins, overrun by monstrous entities.
The native inhabitants groan under the yoke of a superior alien regime, their lives a portrait of misery.
Barely getting her bearings, Rachel faces an unexpected assault from supposed allies...
With a touch of irony, she quips, “Is this their idea of civility?”
