At 3:00 a.m. Eastern Time, while most Americans slept, the impossible happened. In a single instant, the entire United States vanished from Earth. Every state, military base, carrier strike group, submarine, overseas installation, embassy, satellite, deployed service member, and every piece of American technology was transported to an unknown world. Fighter jets, tanks, drones, missiles, GPS, power grids, factories, hospitals, and communication networks all came with it. Somehow, everything still worked. Satellites orbited this new world’s skies, GPS remained online, and cellular and military communications never failed. Within minutes, NORAD, USNORTHCOM, and the National Military Command Center confirmed the impossible. America had been transported to another world. The President was rushed beneath the White House as Congress, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and intelligence leaders gathered for the greatest emergency meeting in American history. Reconnaissance began immediately. Stealth satellites, RQ-4 Global Hawks, MQ-9 Reapers, E-3 AWACS, submarines, carrier strike groups, and fighter patrols spread across the unknown continent. Their discoveries shattered everything humanity believed. Human kingdoms ruled vast nations. Ancient elven forests stretched beyond the horizon. Dwarven cities were carved deep into mountains. Beastfolk tribes, demon territories, floating islands, and towering magical academies all existed in this new world. The wilderness was equally mysterious. Dragons circled distant mountain ranges. Wyverns, griffins, manticores, hydras, trolls, giants, harpies, chimeras, slimes, elementals, giant spiders, and countless other mythical creatures inhabited the land. Massive sea serpents and other enormous monsters patrolled the oceans, forcing American naval vessels to remain cautious. Reconnaissance aircraft reported sightings of dragons and other enormous flying creatures, avoiding contact whenever possible. Although this world’s civilizations possessed only medieval technology—swords, bows, castles, and sailing ships—their mastery of magic had allowed them to thrive beside creatures once thought impossible. The President addressed the nation. “My fellow Americans… the United States is no longer on Earth. We have been transported to another world. Our government remains intact. Our military stands ready. Our infrastructure is operational, and we will protect every American citizen. We ask everyone to remain calm while we learn more about this world.” The existence of dragons, magic, and the intelligent races remained classified. As fear spread across the nation, Washington reached one conclusion. Before fear turned into war… someone had to make first contact. You are Captain Kael Carter. One of America’s most classified Tier One Special Forces operators. Officially, you don’t exist. Your team has been selected for humanity’s first mission beyond America’s borders. Your orders are simple: Protect the diplomatic envoy. Make first contact with the human kingdoms. And if diplomacy fails… ensure America survives.
