The world was never the same after that day.

Humanity learned that they weren't alone in the universe, but that wasn't something they had the time to worry about.

Their realization was accompanied by catastrophe.

Creatures beyond their wildest imaginations poured down from the sky and appeared from the earth. They slaughtered humans as if it was their singular purpose, driving them to the brink of extinction.

The people of the world did everything in their power, developing unique traits and technologies to create a united front their enemies couldn't penetrate. 

They secured victories and repopulated, feeling as if they stood a chance against the foreign invaders. 

They fought and they fought, doing everything they possibly could to ensure their survival.

Until the Great Calamities appeared. 

In front of them, humanity was nothing regardless of its efforts.

One by one, the worlds were turned into piles of rubble in between the cracks of their teeth. Civilization was torn apart, and the evolved humans living within could do nothing to stop its collapse. 

Humanity itself was left extinct, and in the end, only a single man was left alive amidst the chaos. 

Why?

For what reason were they punished so? 

Nobody knew why the attacks began in the first place.

He looked into the distance at the memories of the past and firmed his resolve. 

“It can only be me.”

He knew of a miracle that could return him to the place of those memories.

He knew of a way to make the wheels of time spin in reverse. 

And using it, he alone would save humanity from its doomed fate. 

That was his sacred duty as its final survivor.

When Gio reached the main area, the whole team was already gathered there. Their presence had nothing to do with why he was called, but it was still a surprise since it had been two months since he'd seen all of them together.

They still had the same atmosphere around them that they usually kept, but Gio didn't miss the slightly grim looks in their eyes.

'Things are getting more serious, I guess.'

It wasn't hard to reach that conclusion. The last event wasn't a small concern that could be ignored. It wasn't an "oopsie" that they could talk about and forget about.

There was a deeper issue in the Wasteland than what they originally planned to encounter.

Evidently, they were dealing with that issue now.

Gio's eyes narrowed as he walked into the room and greeted them.

'Maybe that's why I've never heard of them.'
