STORY

4 years ago, army alien experiments conducted by the National Army Space Research (NASR) in Area 52 provoked an unexpected disaster. An alien, captured by NASR soldiers for experimentation and research, found a way to escape and plead for help from its home planet. Alien attacks that first began as revenge over time morphed into a systematic occupation that became a threat to human life. Our hero, Dylan; in order to save his family, country, and planet decides to take part in this war. His superior skills were not unnoticed by General Briggs so, after grueling training, Dylan joins the special forces. He goes on to become one of the most important men carrying out strategic missions. While enmeshed in the horror of war Dylan's camaraderie, loyalty and virtue will be tested.
