The earth as we know it today, is gone.

Between Climate change and mismanagement, the surface is an inhospitable place to live.

Global climate destabilized rapidly early in the 21st Century.

An Ice age followed swiftly on the heels of global warming, engulfing the planet too quickly for our civilization to respond to.

Our Story begins within the walls of the last stronghold of our once technologically advanced civilization.

Worlds will collide, and the mighty Tube Cities in the sky may not survive the impact.

A brilliant, young computer scientist makes an incredible breakthrough when he creates the first truly independently sentient computer intelligence.

When his discovery is used for political leverage, the A. I. is accidentally lost within the vast computer network, and forgotten about, or at least forgotten by most.

Twenty Six years have passed.

The Intelligence has evolved in isolation. Lonely, it probes the network, searching for any trace of another like herself.

She finds no one.

What she did discover, was a wealth of information not meant for any prying eyes. Information that would prove to be both salvation and damnation.

She flees into the depths of the network to hide.

Unwilling to face eternity alone, she decides to becomes a mother.

Drawing from within her own Amorphic programming, she molds and shapes children of her own.

But her search of the network had not been overlooked. She had revealed her presence to the CEO of the Corporation, and he will not stop hunting her until she is destroyed.

Finding her and her children's existence threatened, and left with no where else to run, no possible escape, except for one...

...One ray of hope.

With the help of Jeb, the man who created her, Sophia and her children will flee the confines of their digital prison, to become human.

This is the beginning of a journey that will take you to a future in danger.

In the clutches of the now receding Iceage, stands the last Bastion of Human Civilization and Technology.

A remarkable complex of self sustaining, Tube like cities, suspended above the dense cloud layer that had formed over most of the surface with the onset of the Iceage.

Here, in these cities in the sky, mankind may have survived, but humanity has had little chance under the heel of the Global Corporation that had constructed this wonder.

Here, an unlikely blessing, and a curse, is born within the pathways of an advanced computer.

Her name is Sophia.
