From the ashes, the Phoenix will rise again.

After decades of political tensions, the planet succumbed to the The Great Nuclear War of 1989. In a matter of days, the cities were reduced to ashes and the sky was ablaze.

Among the ruins, the The survivors organized themselves to save humanity, reactivating old evacuation systems and building the first underground shelters. And so the A.S.H.E.S. Protocol — Artificial Shelter & Human Evacuation Sequence — a network of underground colonies created to preserve what remained of the human race.

Two years later, the last survivors are working tirelessly to rescue civilians, rebuild civilization, and develop a project capable of bringing life back to the surface: the Phoenix Project.
