The FirstLord Chronicles, Prequel 2
Simon Fox
A genetic catastrophe divides the people of planet Isska into three warring factions
© Simon Fox 2019
See the end of the book for background information about the characters and the story
1. The Refugees
The Continent, principal landmass of the planet Isska, approx. 15,000 BX
Location: the planet Isska
There were just 437 of them – refugees fleeing from the Destroyers, the genocidal aliens who had annihilated their civilization, devastated dozens of worlds, murdered 130 billion people.

Here they would hide and survive and flourish. They would begin a new chapter in the lengthy story of their species.

About 5,000 years later
The Continent, approx. 10,000 BX
Location: Ang’Kness, Isska
