Within six months civilization unraveled and humanity began abandoning the planet, lifting or farcasting away as fast as resources, ships and facilities allowed, retreating to outposts in orbit, on the moon, Mars and beyond. Within 12 months the Earth was a quarantined wasteland and the TITANS had inexplicably vanished. Barely five percent of the billions crowding the planet made it off and most of those only as infomorphs dumped directly into cold storage.
