The year is 2213 and humans have no choice but to leave Earth. Despite finally achieving world peace and cultivating the means to live forever, environmental degradation due to uninhabitable weather conditions is forcing humankind to evacuate, or be left to certain death. Most of the people live in utter resignation, knowing that only a fraction of the population will be granted the salvation of departure. Shayna, a citizen of Earth since 1990, is desperate to make sense of the changes in her world and what is to become of not only her and her loved ones, but also the human race.

The Veil ATLAS: Thread of Return
"In the ruins of Earth, silence became the first weapon of the apocalypse. What began as whispers in dreams soon tore through the minds of humanity, leaving bodies to fall like shadows collapsing into dust. Nine millennia later, survivors scattered across distant worlds struggle to remember the home they lost, and the voices that promised both salvation and doom. In a universe where time itself has become fractured, the fate of all realms rests on uncovering what really destroyed Earth... and whether it can rise again." The story begins in 2063, not with explosions or war, but with a chilling silence that spread across the globe. Strange voices crept into the dreams of humankind, luring them toward an unseen force. Then the deaths began. First one man, then cities, and soon the entire world collapsed under a plague of the mind. Nine millennia later, the legacy of Earth's fall still echoes across space. Civilizations that fled to new worlds look back on their birthplace as both a graveyard and a mystery. Legends speak of the whispers that ended humanity's golden age, but no one truly knows if they were divine, alien, or something older than the universe itself. This is the beginning of a saga of survival, memory, and destiny, where dreamers, wanderers, and warriors must confront the truth behind Earth's destruction and decide whether its fall was an ending... or the first step in something far greater.Complete
