Children Of The Fountain

Dobbin’s Hope is a colony world of old Earth in the 3445 AD old earth time. It has been colonized since then, Dobbin’s Hope is named after the space explorer Captain David Dobbin, who named the planted after his daughter Hope Dobbin who perished on Earth after its last and final great war which decimated most of earths populations and environment during the last century of 3400 AD. Captain Dobbins headed the only exodus off earth with a fleet of colony ships full of earth survivors, and the last remaining cryogenics-embryos of earth fauna and flora. Dobbins Hope was colonized and within the first thousand years it has rebuilt a flourishing world on its main continent and numerous island land masses. The colonies reestablished themselves around a single Theological democratic government body to guide the colonies. They re-introduced the theology of a one God religion and belief system that guided the people through the long centuries of colony life on Dobbin’s Hope.
A thousand years later, even this religion became deluded with non-believers and apathy which was pandemic on earth by the end of 3400 AD on old earth, which lead to its final global war. After 2000 years on Dobbins Hope, its governments have become several nations, often walking a tight rope of peace between them. The citizens no longer remember who Dobbin was, nor do they remember they are a colony world of earth survivors. This history has faded from the minds of the people who now live in the many cities, towns, and villages of Dobbin’s Hope. They have even forgotten the name of their planet and now call it New Earth, a generic description of the world they live on. They lead their lives according to current beliefs, customs, and a social structure that is parallel to the mid-20th century of old earth both in technology and theology.
But not all is well on the colony, A great war has come and gone and now the One Church faces a new conflict. Someone or something has encouraged the Teens of the villages, towns and cities to take an exodus to Calliope the mega city of Dobbins Hope. There they disappear never to be seen again. Father Tomas, Brotherhood-General of the Church of Arcanum sets out to find the reason why, these youths are leaving there homes during the night. Leaving families at a loss as to why these youth are abandoning their families and going to Calliope, to a city rife with a lifestyle of crime, poverty, and unrest. What Father Tomas finds is a Fountain of Bronze children that suddenly comes alive.
