Synopsis: The planet Alcyone faces certain doom. The remnants of its two civilizations have crowded together in a great place of refuge, a domed metropolis carried upon the back of an enormous robotic city-god... the Ark. The inhabitants of Alcyone must leave the planet or perish. Designed by the Cevean people with the help of a mysterious priestess, the Ark was captured by the warlike Storrions, who forced the Ceveans out into the wastelands and now reside in it. Without the priestess' guidance and knowledge, though, the Storrions have no way to pilot or control the Ark. The daughter of the priestess, Amarinth is the only one who can control and pilot the Ark.
