They had been sent there with only one purpose, to save and to protect but the revenge had struck without warning and they had been powerless to intervene.

They had been aghast when they watched the planet below them suddenly sparkle with fire as the bombs detonated all over its surface. They were shocked by the fact that they had failed, that they had been unable to prevent the planet's population from suffering total annihilation. 

They gazed down upon the dead world in their despair and realised that there was nothing that they could do............except wait.

But unknown to those above and hidden from their scans were a tiny number of survivors, protected from the effects of the revenge by the last miracle of the science that had brought their destruction. These people were living within a tiny fragment of all that was left off their world. But the protection that this small community had been given, demanded a huge sacrifice and their cognitive regression was unavoidable. Their humble society slowly crumbled as the century passed, for that was the time that was required for their world to cleanse itself; and for the forgiveness to be complete. 

So across those decades the survivors and their descendants must battle against the uncertainties and threats of time, not only for their own survival but for that of the race itself. These seven generations of one family each have their own tale to tell, and this is the only surviving account of their history.

This is their testament. One that speaks to the value of their survival and that of humanity itself. It is one that questions the very nature of what that definition means, but unknown to any of them, and throughout all of their struggles, their happiness and their pain, there was only one thing that had always been certain.
