Official synopsis Publisher
Mother Earth was frustrated in the calendar year 2006. That had been when she needed her guardians but the humans’ callous use of the planet and their wavering belief in forces, beyond those proven by science, prevented her from waking them. The fire demon known as Markolopulous, Markos for short, escaped his confines from beyond the veil that separated the Abyss from the mortal world. A mortal, who dabbled in the power of magic, had made a circle precise enough to open the veil and allow the demon’s escape. The goddess had tried to summon her champions and found her power weakened from the declining belief and the damaging garbage in the world. Unable to wake her charges, she was forced to watch as the demon took up residence in France, and began using his influence to shape the world to his liking. After spending time collecting the necessary resources, Markos helped to finance the research to build ships capable of reaching other worlds. He also worked to weaken the goddess more as he had products made that helped to generate even more disregard for the planet and Mother Earth was fading from the world. Markos enjoyed the chaos he built for a long while.
