is enslaved. There is no racial divide. There is no nation that has asserted its superiority. No alien race has captured our planet. Humanity has enslaved itself. The wealthiest echelon of society has supplemented its DNA with nanotechnology and created a unified World State. They enacted restrictive laws for the protection of the inferior naturals. They began population control programs. And the naturals fought back. The Great War was the last war fought on earth. The naturals lost. 4 billion people were executed.

They managed to save a few. Mostly children and young men and women. They distracted the Cyberhuman forces with a desperate final attack. These few left, and their Exodus lead them to a lonely blue planet where they discovered magic.

Eight hundred years later a slave accompanies the expedition of an idealistic young scientist and the child prophet of a peaceful civilization dreams of fire and ruin... and the mysterious heaven project begins.
