Background

In Exodus, you follow a part of the story of an alien civilisation who were forced to leave their native planet due to an abusive exploitation of its natural resources. They travelled many years in their flying city Exodus, looking for a new home.

They finally discovered a suitable planet, but some time later, and as things never goes as excepted, they had involuntarily triggered a cataclysm.

As Exodus was unable to fly, their tried as a last hope to put the whole people into a stasis state. Many years has passed since this, and the city remains quiet. But one day, a stasis capsule unhooks from its support and falls on the planet...
