Prologue

Clean water and cleaner air. The perfect place to raise a family. Utopia 7 awaits.

Utopia 7 awaits, that’s what the advert said. The latest planet to complete the terra-forming process and now ready for colonisation.

You boarded the ship with a handful of others, many with children, each eager to start a new life. Some hoping for a fresh start, others hoping to out run their past.

It took a while to get you all on board. You settled into your cryo-chambers and waited for the countdown. Then, the deep blackness of hypersleep.

You woke to a deafening alarm. Blinding red siren lights illuminating the cryo-deck. The smell of electrical burning floating in on the warm recycled air.

Lying on your side barely able to tell which direction was up, the plasti-glass door slowly opened to let you out.

The ship was on it’s side. The imminent danger of falling out of the cryo-chamber snapped all of your senses into focus. As your eyes adjusted you could see the other cryo-chambers opening below you and beyond that a fire.

What had happened?

This is not Utopia….
