He was a man fully grown- born into a completely unfamiliar world that was full of challenges and dangers- his mind had been wiped as clean as a slate. Consciousness came slowly, reality even slower. He was naked and alone. No family no friends no people… not even a name. Physically he was intact. Only minor scaring on his lower legs and a sore neck. He coughed up water from his chest and realized the air was heavy with water, there were rainbows dancing in sight everywhere. It was a strange new world that offered nothing but unfamiliar landscape full of mushroom looking vegetation that went on flat and forever. He looked up into a sky that had two suns in it… very strange. His plan was to follow the suns, his goal was to survive, his ultimate destination was to find his identity. The search was long and filled with an arduous learning and adapting time. Finally coping with this world as it existed he eventually comes into contact with people not too unlike himself. Knowing that he has not reached his final goal, he must again adapt, learn and be part of something bigger than a bare survival mode. Fitting into this somewhat primitive community he will find himself able to make positive contributions that bring him into leading role. His creative and imaginative thinking will even help him to assist his new people in fighting an unfortunate war that is threatening their very existence. Does he find himself?
