About The Guardian Cycle
After two centuries of turmoil over climate change, plague, and scarcity wars, Earth has emerged bruised. Slowly, the world has settled into a new order, dominated by China, the new technological superpower, and fundamentalist Christian America playing their hardest to catch up.
Down on Earth, trade wars and fears of new pandemics keep borders closed, while the rich elites oversee the masses from the luxury of their orbital habitats.
Meanwhile, human settlers have reached the distant planet Bethesda in an attempt to establish the first human colony in another solar system.
