Repeating History
When
humankind tore through the fabric of space they came in vast numbers on ships
the size of cities. This was a one way journey, for they left behind a planet
ruined by war, pollution and over-population. Perhaps those abandoned will
discover the courage to find solutions for Earth’s varied problems, but those
that left travelled too far to make their way back. The ships were indefinitely
self-sustaining, but man needs solid ground beneath his feet and a friendly sun
on his face. His mission always is to find a land to plant and root
and grow and prosper.
Ten ships
travelled through space. Two veered off course in the midst of an extended
asteroid field, one collided with one of the giant rocks, four landed on Kual,
one on Rhomi and the remaining two on Hutito. With these ten ships went
humankind’s hope for eventual survival.
