Cataclysm & The Grand Migration
In the year 2348 scientists on Earth observed a massive spherical object in space consisting of an unknown black substance which was on course for direct collision with Earth. It was determined that the object would take a little more than 200 years to arrive. The period of time wherein the inhabitants of Earth lived under an impending threat of planet-wide extinction is known as the Cataclysm Era.

In an effort to preserve mankind, the UN worked through Scion Corporation in order to engineer Hiraeth Station which would allow for the Grand Migration.
