    It began on August 5th, 1955. It was a grand age in the area of technological advancement. It was on this day that world renowned scientist, Jules Giger, announced a plan for a massive lunar city, built as "a place of opportunity for all".  After 12 years of strenuous construction, this city, named Artemis City, was finally completed, and that same year, millions had went looking for opportunity in this new lunar metropolis.

    However, whenever a great deal of people migrate to a single location, trouble is sure to follow, and soon enough, Artemis City was up to it's neck in criminal activity. While Giger and the government of Artemis City scrambled to create a system of laws, some of the city's inhabitants resorted to mercenary work to earn some extra money. Luckily, this eventually led to the crime rate of Artemis City dropping, and because of their effectiveness, the city's government ended up enlisting mercenaries as a part of their government. As more mercenaries helped in the fight against crime in Artemis City, some of these mercenaries had gained fame beyond compare. For mercenaries, this was a time known as The Great Mercenary Era.
Hi guys!

So, decided to try something a little different! This is a story idea I've had for a while now, but never got around to.

In case you're wondering, yes, this is going to be a Raygun Gothic type story, with some slight Atompunk influence as well! And yes, I mainly wrote this to set the mood for the story to come!

Interesting concept. Conflict, a fantastical setting, lots of potential for storytelling.
