In the wake of Earth's imminent demise, a group of thirty survivors awakens on an enigmatic planet in a parallel universe, their memories erased by the cosmic transition. Among the pioneers is Callista, a woman with a forgotten past, once married on Earth, now facing the daunting challenge of forging a new civilization.

As a panel of leaders emerges to guide them, men and women are randomly paired to ensure the continuation of humanity. Callista must adhere to the rules mandating random pairings, thrusting Callista and her husband into the arms of others. Yet, an irresistible force draws them together clandestinely as they navigate a forbidden romance amid the challenges of survival.

Little do Callista and her mysterious husband know, they are soulmates separated by the amnesia shrouding their shared history. Their stolen moments become a refuge from the rigid rules of the new society, echoing a connection that transcends the boundaries of this unfamiliar world.

Months pass, and the survivors grapple with an unexpected development-the slow return of their memories. Fragments of their past lives emerge, threatening to disrupt the delicate balance of their newfound existence.

Simultaneously, a lurking darkness on the new planet adds an ominous layer to their struggles, echoing the mysterious departure of the planet's previous inhabitants. The survivors, unknowingly mirroring the actions of those who came before them, face the haunting question of whether history is destined to repeat itself.

In "Paper Planes," a gripping sci-fi/romantic tale, love, loss, and resilience intertwine. As the survivors uncover their shared past secrets, confront echoes across universes, and grapple with impending darkness, the story explores if love will prevail or if the ghosts of memories will force a flight from the planet, mirroring a cycle of civilizations lost in the cosmic unknown.

Every prototype technology has its risks. After an accident involving a novel robotic suit, Keres cadet Sky begins to have recurring lucid nightmares where she finds herself in a prison called Tartaros. Soon, one thing becomes clear: Tartaros is more than just a dream, and as the lines between reality and her subconscious begin to blur, Sky is forced to question her own perception of the world. Meanwhile, more and more mysterious accidents shake the city of Pharos to the core, threatening the safety and security of the last surviving humans on earth. Through her own accident, Sky finds herself drawn into the investigation of an enigmatic task force.

16 parts Complete Mature

In the distant future of the 28th century, mankind had survived near extinction then made it into the wider galaxy. With almost no other sapient life in the Milky Way to stop humanity's expansion. Space was ripe for the picking. Now mankind and the enigmatic Voidrians formed the U.S.S.A. The (United Solar Systems Alliance). Before Mankind became the dominant force in the Milky Way, Earth was in shambles. Natural resources were nearly depleted, diseases were rampant and most of Earth's population was in poverty. Then by some miracle of discovery or a cruel cosmic joke, in the mid-23rd century when all humanity could do was go out into space to search for a new home, a small planet that was black as the void around it was discovered. The humans who landed on the little planet had nearly lost all hope until they stumbled upon unknown ancient ruins beneath the planet's surface where they discovered untold amounts of bizarre advanced technology. Earth and humanity were saved, and the little planet to thank for their salvation was named Umbra. Alice is a xenoarchaeologist, her passion in life has always been the study of ancient cultures, and now she has the opportunity to study the most ancient one of them all. The very one that modern Human civilization was built on. Alice and her boyfriend accepted a posting on the famous and ancient ship, the U.S.S.A Umbra.
