Personal Project: The Story of Arda

Background of Story

[YEAR OF T1000]

The ‘T’ stands for Tarnn, the name of the terraformed planet; and ‘1000’ the 1000th year on planet Tarnn.

In year E5000 (year of 5000 on Earth) was the year where many called it ‘The Finale’. The living conditions then was so harsh that Earth had to face its apocalyptic death. Scientists and astronomers predicted the tragic fate of Earth, and they and urged the government for support on terraforming a new found planet 3000 light years away from Earth.

'When the planet was successfully terraformed, astronomers named it Tarnn. Humans were delivered in hibernation capsules. This significant 3000-light-year migration was recorded as ‘Exodus Beta’. As advanced as the technology then, not all humans survived the migration. The causes of some failures remained unknown.

The pioneers who steered the migration ship, and those who survived the migration formed a government: The Hub. Once they had arrived the planet, The Hub sent able men to scout the environment of Tarnn. When they learnt about hostile creatures and surroundings, The Hub created a glass shield, and in this shield the habitat for human race. This shield was named The Bubble. It was T1 when The Bubble was built.

Generations were born after generations, the Bubble people lived and thrived. Little did they know that The Hub kept a secret from them. Within this protective shield lies a hidden truth - that they never really migrated.

It was T1000 when this was written, 1000 years from the first recorded day on Tarnn.
