The Red Rover: Contingence

In any genuine pursuit of enlightenment, one of the leading prerequisites for success would have to be considered application, more often than not. Otherwise, the knowledge obtained might hold tangential value at best.

From the moment his seven students first entered his survival education simulator, Donovan Marius fought tooth and nail to break them of their individualistic habits--in hopes that they would eventually appreciate the benefits of accomplishing tasks as a collective.

While they had been brought many times to the brink of epic disaster, during their seemingly never-ending odyssey, his cadets continued to demonstrate that his messages were loudly and clearly received. Application, along with confidence, were two things this group did not lack.

Millions of miles across the far-reaching star system, now revealed to them as Genara, a physical beacon beckons their eponymous spaceship, coming from what they believe to be one of their own.

The Red Rover descends into this brave new world with their combat antennas aloft. Their excitement noticeably muted this time, primarily due to their previous entanglements with hostile alien lifeforms, no matter the setting.

A familiar sight awaits Marius and the cadets, but the mystery surrounding "it" is far too great for them to ignore. This is a reunion to remember.
