Chapter One - The Sky Cracks

Hundreds of years ago, solar flares knocked the Earth's orbit off course, and now, in the year 2323, it lies motionless, one side constantly lit, and the other in perpetual darkness. Technology has gone full circle, steam-driven automata enhanced by electronics to create a new breed of machinery. But now, those trapped in the dark have decided to rebel against those who put them there, and it's up to Jacob Cartwell and the Last Hope Institute to either make peace, or protect his people from those who wish to invade. But, he question is, who is in the wrong, and who is in the right? Who should dictate who dies and who lives? Who's right is it to bathe in the sunlight, and who should be plunged back into eternal darkness?
