SYNOPSIS

When an Alien Artifact crash-landed on Earth, causing mass destruction upon impact, all attempts to make contact failed. When the dust had settled, The Artifact took hostile action, hacking satellites, government databases, Military intranets, everything that it could access. Governments around the World came together, agreeing to co-operate in joint efforts to neutralize the common threat. The United Fleet of NATO, Russia, and China established a no-fly zone around the crash perimeter and world-leading scientists established secret research centers in mobile military bases.

After Intensive research on a mysterious forcefield shrouding the crash site, it became clear that a number of weak points would appear seemingly at random on its surface. All probes the we sent would disappear instantly once across the perimeter, without transmitting any information back. The first expedition of marines and scientists vanished without a trace. Misinformation and secrecy surrounding The Artifact eventually devolved into mass riots, panic, famine, unprecedented economic crisis and suicides rates, and as tension grew, it was decided that we make a preemptive strike using Tsar Bombs. After what seemed to be the first successful attack, The Artifact suddenly emitted a powerful blast, shifting the World back in time. And just like that, humanity simply “forgot” that the incident ever even happened.

Only days before the catastrophic Time-Shift brought on by The Artifact, an experimental new technology, a temporal implant, was implanted in a few hundred human volunteers. They are the few remaining that remember what actually happened. And so The Earth Defense Alliance (EDA) was formed, a shadow government controlled by The Artifact to gain influence across the world under the guise of preparing humanity for alien threats in the near future. As the EDA's influence increased, a faction within the EDA called Sons of Cain (SoC) openly opposed the organization, declaring war, labelling the EDA “alien puppets” who are driving humanity to its extinction. The EDA retaliate, ousting the SoC to the world as a terrorist organization, and so SoC members were hunted and exterminated on sight. Now, 35 years after the Time-Shift event, The Artifact abruptly cuts all commutations channels and its primary protocol is activated. The EDA quickly send a new recon team to investigate. Joining them, a talented Quantum Engineer, James Danziger, who has just arrived back on Earth from the EDA's Intensive Training Facilities on the Moon.
