Act II with Fence Posts



ACT II



It has been ten thousand years since we colonised the solar system. Mankind is in what we call the “ Interplanetary Age”. We have only the best practices of our ancestors belonging to the terrestrial with us, some would say. As for some the zodiac way of life works. Provided the right stars are shining on you at the time you are born. For those who are not that fortunate, life is very very cruel. There is nothing more painful than stealing a baby from the arms of the mother. There is nothing more puzzling than the mind of an orphan. There is balance in the zodiac world. You could also say there is peace, at some superficial level. If you dig deeper you will see fights between the Police and The Mafia every single day. Who wins ? Well it does not matter to the losers right ? Or does it ? Its no wonder people like Laz and Sura started the rebellion to gather the stones for themselves. The Astro Council may have had a glorious time but they have lost the faith and love of the masses. The Massacre of protestors and the unexplained missing stones cannot go unforgiven. For the first time in 10000 years, the Zodiac system has failed.
