The year is 8662, and the human species have worked in peace with the Spirals for a more habitable Universe. Once they fled to another dimension in hopes of a newer and more safe lifetime, the Spirals took Earth as their own, creating a prison for those who have wronged the world in the most cruel of ways, being too unstable for ordinary confinement. Rather then be held behind bars that would most likely do nothing, these criminals have been given a second chance at life, but at a price. Only one leaves. This law is created to limit the number of failures that emerge and decrease the likely chance that they regain their lost memories and return to their dangerous and unstable mind set. Erased memories and a new start, these people have their own society so they may create a new future for themselves and prove their worthiness to be with the rest of the population.

Who will be victorious in this unknowing battle for life?

And who will perish?
