*The Aries RESEMBLES this ship.*
My name is Acacia. This is what happened to Earth.
Earth got used up. Everyone was fighting over resources, and everything got used up or destroyed in the process. NASA got everyone together and decided to send out ships to colonize other planets. There were none within our own solar system, so they looked further out. One planet in particular, they called Sanctuary.
Just from the satellites that got sent to Sanctuary, NASA determined that the land was full of life. Bright greens and blues, much like Earth had been in the past, before pollution corrupted it.
I was on the Aries, the colony ship sent to Sanctuary. My brother, my sister, and me. And at least a thousand other people. We were due to go into a hypersleep state for the duration of the months-long trip, as were the animals that were with us, but we got some strange readings as we passed Jupiter. We left the solar system when we ran into it.
A black hole.
Or so we thought.
Instead of being molecularly disassembled, we were transported. The black hole was actually a wyrmhole, and it spit us out in Sanctuary's atmosphere. The Aries didn't stand a chance. We crashed, and crashed hard. Thankfully, a lot of us survived. Most of the animals that were brought onto the ship were okay, with a few exceptions. However, a good portion of the ship was damaged, and now we're on our own in this new world. I wouldn't be surprised if all of Earth thinks we're dead at this point.
Right now, its all we can do to survive. We're on our own now, those of us that survived. But we did survive, and that has to count for something.
Lately though, people have begun to hear strange voices when hunting on Threshold Island, the nearest Island to the one we crashed on. And I and many others have felt something watching us when we are on the beaches. It's eerie, and we need to discover who or what it is, as it might be a threat to our down-sized population.
