In the not too distant future mankind's world has collapsed. The population of, what had been over 7 billion, has been reduced to a tiny fraction of that number. Nature has reclaimed most of what man had built. Time has been turned back to before the Industrial Revolution, and in some places, to the Dark Ages. Large tracts of the world are uninhabitable, poisoned by radiation and toxic chemicals. For all but a handful, modern conveniences no longer exist. Even warfare has been reduced to the use of muscle powered weapons. Although nearly wiped out by his own hand, mankind slowly recovers. Unfortunately, some seek to bring back the old ways, and bring a new darkness with them, a darkness that must be stopped or our species may permanently disappear from the universe. Only one small city, built by a visionary to survive the catastrophe, remains intact. The Firefly Light Series is about the life of an exceptional girl, born with a special mission to save mankind and what is left of our world. Of Japanese-American ancestry, her name is Keika, which means firefly light in Japanese. Accidental contact with a strange substance has transformed her into a warrior of unmatched ferocity, although she is not a natural killer. Her situation has forced her into the role of warrior, leader and national hero due to the fact that she is the youngest daughter of the country's king. She must contend with maturing in a broken world, and enemies from within, as well as a mysterious and powerful outside force bent on the conquest of what remains of her world. Some of the invaders seem to possess almost supernatural powers, and are reported to be led by a creature who calls himself a God. Somehow, she must find a way to protect her world from this creature and his minions.

Humanity once stood on the top of the world. They ruled the planet with an iron grip. Their rise in technology, industry, engineering, and science were quickly growing. However, an invasion on a worldwide scale had occurred in late 2023. Though there were initial successes in repelling these unknown, mechanical entities. They would eventually start to gain ground through quick adoption of newer variants of their beings and adjusting to counter common military tactics. However, more was needed, so came the introduction of Nikkes, an experimental female soldier that would be the first cybernetic frontline soldier. Even though there were attempts of converting males to such a task, they would become unsuccessful, as it was found out that males were more susceptible to cognitive dissonance and suicide. And so, females ranging from 18 to 30 years of age would remain the main source of Nikkes. As the war raged on, more variants of Nikkes would reinforce or replace the quickly diminishing forces of the world. There would be a significant breakthrough in the Nikkes, with the introduction of the Grimm models of Nikkes. Five Nikkes would be produced by a now defunct company. This squad would be called Goddess. They would be commanded by a special forces Captain Nicholas Miller, and through their first missions, they would further prove the effectiveness of specialized Nikkes and even push the Raptures back some. However, even their efforts would not be enough to stop the tithe of Raptures from encompassing Europe. After many years of fighting, there was one last desperate defense of a structure known as the Ark. Unfortunately, humanity would end up underground where they would spend the next 5 centuries fighting the raptures in smaller scale battles, skirmishes, and special operations. All while the fates of Goddess squad and the now legendary Captain Nicholas Miller had remained a mystery.
