June 18th, 2489, or as the Proles like to call it, Midnight, Not the Apocalypse Day but the day a lot of Rulers left the
earth. After the Dark times of the Planet, our Rulers have moved on into space colonization, leaving us Proles to
take the land that our old higher ups have taken,

But 20 years later and Society has held itself back up and now it’s 2:00am or the redevelopment stage, there’s still
a lot to do. Well, the cities have changed, made a lot of brownfields out of the damaged buildings, making some
new towers, some of us learnt how to be much better at writing, but for me, I'm an orphan, I don’t know where I
came from but I know that I will find out where I did come from.

adoption straight after to keep fighting

Cherry, Was a good one, maybe even the best mecha soldier

Alright, after your mother’s Death, the crew started to fall apart. Most decided to head back to England after the
resistance there won and some of them went into hiding. Unfortunately, you were nowhere to be found as we
couldn’t go near any Public Service as we were outlaws, so I started a new team, and we want to grow back to the
size we had before the downfall.
