The year of 2001 in the month of December.

California, West-coast USA.

In the Mesquite mines, bulldozers and trucks rolls over the muddy pathways, thus miners began to walk into the tunnels with their mining gears, lights lit up in the darkness and began the drilling against the stony walls to find gold or rare metal, however, a single miner brought up a drill against the stone wall, not until cracks can be heard, the cracks spread out, which leaves the miner stood dumbfounded until the walls tore down, revealing a man-sized cave entrance, he turned off his drilling equipment and slowly entered into an unknown area, the other miners gathered each other in front of the entrance, looking curious what he had found, one CEO came inside and saw the miner stood there while holding his flashlight, he stood in surprise and wondered, they stood in a large dark cavern of unknown crystals, the miner began to touch one of the crystal, thus surprisingly, light flashes to life and a large surge of unknown energy blasted out with a gust of winds leading it's way to the tunnel's exit, meanwhile, on the surface, the entire world went into a massive blackout and radio communications were interrupted as the aurora borealis in the Artic surface went out of control and shines brighter in the cold nights, however, the blackout lasted for thirty seconds until lights and communications backed up once again, the other miners outside the entrance shielded their eyes until the lights from the cavern faded, then one of the miners from the group went inside the area to see what's going on, from what it appears to be a place ful of crystals of unknown origins in various of sizes and glistered with various of colors.

Earth and it's history will be soon forever changed.

The next day, the manager arrived at the mines, soon, his secretary came beside him, holding a clipboard full of results.

"Sir, it's unlike anything what our Miners found." Spoke his secretary. "They found somewhat extraordinary, it appears to be crystals, but glowing ones."

The managers looked at him curiously.

"Show me."

"Over there sir." His secretary pointed towards a group of miners surrounding a cart filled with unknown glowing crystals.

The manager passed some miners who stood nearby and approaches to the cart, he held a small crystal in his hand, he inspects the unknown glowing crystals.

"Interesting, very, very interesting, God knows what we have something rare and exotic to be discovered." He said in wonder. "It's really nothing we've seen this rare glowing crystals before, we might bring one of these to a Geologist and see it what it is."

Meanwhile, in the world of Remnant, in the City of Vale.

It was in the middle of the night, the city of vale was filled mostly in silent with a few cars roaming the streets and cold winds blew over, suddenly, dogs started barking, then an earthquake began to surge tremors across in every places around Remnant, people who woke up during the quake began to panic, lights began to flicker out and the last thing what the people saw was a flash of light.

*BUZZT!*

"We've never seen a huge island, no, land in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean before-" Spoke a sailor in the News.

Meanwhile, a fleet of amphibious USN LCAC's and helicopters landed at the beach heads in the unoccupied eastern region of Vale Kingdom.

'We don't know anything, if these people can cause a threat, we do not know who they are and what they're capable of.'

The landing doors of the LCAC's opened up, Marines, armored vehicles and tanks began to roam the beaches while helicopters roamed the skies.

"Move! Move! Move!" Yelled a Marine.

'In order to protect our country.'
