-----The Story-----

July 1, 2012: Construction of the International Space Station is completed. Call goes out for employees of all nationalities to man the station: astronauts, physicists, chemists, doctors, etc.

July 30, 2012: After undergoing a series of intensive physical and mental tests, you are hired as an astronaut for the International Space Station.

August 2, 2012: Artemis 16, the manned flight to Mars, is successfully launched from the I.S.S. On September 7, 2014, astronauts Joseph Arlington(of the United States of America) and Jian Guo Li(of the Peoples' Republic of China) become the first human beings to set foot on Mars.
August 21, 2012: The I.S.S. launches a series of satellites and robots destined for Venus. These objects all reach the planet successfully, and unprecedented amounts of information are gathered about the second planet in the solar system.

September 19, 2014: Dr. Dietrich Beckenbauer, Sc.D., acting director of the I.S.S., announces the intention to launch another, highly ambitious project. The I.S.S. intends to put human boots on the planet Venus by the year 2019 at the latest. This project is dubbed Dionysus.

January 11, 2015: You are selected by the I.S.S. as one of the astronauts to be sent to Venus. You begin extensive training for this mission.

April 16, 2018: Five astronauts that were selected for the Venus mission are sent into space on Dionysus 4.

April 30, 2018: Dionysus 4 sustains serious damage to its fuel tanks and is ordered to return to the I.S.S. immediately. The mission is aborted.

May 7, 2018: Dionysus 4 is unable to reach the I.S.S. as it is captured by the gravitational pull of a large nearby meteoroid and driven far off course. By the time it recovers from the meteoroid, it has lost its bearings.

May 21, 2018: Dionysus 4 has lost the last vestiges of its fuel by this point. Communications from the shuttle and her crew have all ceased, and the crew is given up for dead. In the public uproar following the incident, Dr. Daniel Lancaster, the longtime head of engineering sciences at the I.S.S., is forced to resign.

May 29, 2018: Dionysus 4, which has been drifting in space for the last week, is caught in the gravitational pull of an invisible black hole. It crosses the horizon line. The shuttle and her crew are nearly crushed before, by some chance miracle, it is ejected into space when the massive gravity of the black hole suddenly shifts.

June 8, 2018: The Dionysus 4 and her crew are caught once again in the gravitational pull of an alien planet, and bail out into seperate escape pods before crashlanding on the surface.

@Bicola

A short man in an officer's uniform enters the prison cell. He looks to be about 40 years old, with short black hair that's beginning to turn gray, and a certain friendliness about him. He smiles at you, and extends his right hand to shake.
"My name is Gunther Leonhardt," he tells you. He has a strange accent, it's like an American, Chinese, and German accent rolled into one. "What's yours?"

'Theres more of them than there are of us. When the Triad first appeared, *we* outnumbered *them*. But we made the mistake of not taking them seriously, and we're all thats left who stayed. A while back, a pretty large group fled while we stayed and fought. But we got our numbers shrunken even further, and so we're following in their footsteps.'

'There good at what they do, I'll give them that. But they've got better guns, equipment, armor, and technology, so what can we do?'

Ringo finishes.

"Those people were defenders of the last beacon of hope that humanity has for survival, enemies of evil. Those people, they were heroes."

"what are you in here for?"

"I am here to speak with you, my friend."

"Your superiors? Who might they be?"

"I'm afraid I don't know *your* story. But that can be easily fixed. Would you like to share it with me?"

there were others with me.

"How many others? We would be more than happy to track them down for you, if you so wished. But in order to do so, we will need all the information you can give us. About them, their location, etc."

'Basic? BASIC? Theres nothing 'basic' about an axe sticking out your head, or armor so strong that nothing can get through it. Just because we don't have guns or any ranged weapons doesn't mean we're basic. You'd do wise to remember that human.'

He sighs.

'Though you're right. Its just not our way though. Why change when you've had it good for who knows how long?'

"Please, I meant no offense! I just meant that it might be wise to invest in other weaponry. At least to branch out in weapon types. It could greatly aid in battle strategy. If you ever decide to, I'd be glad to try to help."
