Moonium: Intro

Eons ago, asteroids and meteors of all sizes, from the farthest reaches of the universe, crashed into what is now called the Moon—a common occurrence in a game of what the humans refer to as Pinball, only in outer space. A crash here or there, then or now. I emerged as the product of The Prophecy.

The Prophecy—when humans ascends to the surface of the moon and return my relics to Earth—has been around as long as time itself. The origin of the prophecy, Moonium included, remains a mystery. And although the answers to such a mystery are lurking in the universe, more important matters demanded my attention: revealing Moonium to humanity, saving Earth itself from planetary climate changes and reigniting the spark in human hearts. In doing so, the best and the worst of humanity—greed versus compassion—battling each other, landed center stage. Humanity, more connected and judgmental and becoming more so every day, has divided the world between the have and have nots.

Although my efforts were not my finest moment, I adapted to the human condition in their so-called Digital Age. A time when technology distracted humanity and the growing dangers were ignored for solutions not fully understood or would never come. Revealing myself was not only a risk I had to take, but a moment of clarity and patience to allow the humans to accept and adapt to Moonium’s unveiling and the Prophecy. Foolishly, I ignored this conflict to fulfill my mission. That was my sole purpose. In doing so, a trifecta of conflicts, unforeseen to the Prophecy itself, arose with dire consequences Earth was not ready for.

This is my story. This is the story of Moonium!
