Year TS
2XXX AD Humanity has formed a "Relaxed World Government." Everything
has been entrusted to the international AI network Sapientia, and people live
according to their rational judgment... However, Sapientia's Lunar Reclamation
Project caused a rift between Earth—which keeps the peace by sending polluters
and criminals to the Moon—and the Moon itself, forced to live in poverty,
igniting the spark of the War of Independence.
The
protagonist, Jack, who was involved in a bombing, lost his family to the Lunar
Rebels, a group seeking to free him from Earth's rule. Vowing revenge, Jack
decides to travel to the Moon with his friends as a researcher for the Earth's
military, determined to confront those who took everything from him.
