Breathe in and breathe out.

You are still alive, and that's what matters.

Your name is Jackson.

They wanted to use us to replay human history. Why? Because their civilization is so old that they are not sure if the historical documents are correct. They wanted to see if our history would turn out similar to theirs so that they could get a more realistic grip on things. I, Jackson Flynn, just happened to be the one to stumble upon the wrong cave at the wrong time.
