Since the discovery of the Guide Stone 100 years ago deep in the equatorial sand of our planet, Kharak, our very origins have come into question. Now, after years of technological advancement and careful studay, there is one inescapable revelation: We do not belong here. From that moment of discovery on, we have dedicated ourselves to one goal -- returning home.
