SKAIA - Life on the run. Movement is life. Keep moving. Stay alive. Life on the move. Keep moving or die From the creators of The Airship Andalusia, Polonius and Penelope, Ehro, NION, and Armageddon Express comes a new chapter in the galaxy-spanning Directorate saga arriving planetside in 2022! In the distant future, humankind has spread across the galaxy. Aided in their galactic expansion efforts by the discovery and use of Forerunner technologies, the tripartisan Directorate guides humanity's exploration and colonization programs. With no shortage of planets prepared for human habitation by massive Forerunner devices called World Engines, the Directorate dispatches clans of augmented humans to settle newly terraformed worlds. Transported to these New Worlds in immense space cities named Heaven's Teardrops, the clans arrive with one objective: colonization. Arriving planetside from Valhalla, the Rekkr Clan's orbiting Teardrop, Skaia and her crew of Grounders begin their survey mission only to soon discover that they are not alone. The Awakened, an outlaw AI and mech faction, have claimed the world as their own. When the Awakened destroy their dropship destroyed and cut of their communications with Valhalla, a desperate plan is made to prevent a catastrophe of human life. For Skaia and her crew, there are only two options: keep moving or die. #ScienceFiction #GraphicNovel #Norsemen #Vikings #ArtificialIntelligence #Mechs
