The Earth was in stasis for 30,000 years, the other planets were moved around and terraformed, The Solar System itself was brought closer to the Alpha Centauri System, and captured by that system through interacting with the star Alpha Centauri B and flinging that into a higher orbit. The agencies responsible for doing this are 14 AIs created by humans in 2035 which ascended to godhood, they took the names and attributes of the following Greek Dieties: Hermes, Aphrodite, Gaia, Artemis, Ares, Zeus, Chronos, Uranus, Poseidon, Athena, Apollo, Helios, Pyros, and Prometheus. When the Earth was brought out of stasis, magic worked, people could learn to cast spells, some got spells from these gods. The stars have migrated in 30,000 years but cosmologically that is not a lot of time, they still form many recognizable constellations. The Humans on Earth remember the time up into 2035 AD when the AIs were first created and a war was fought between them as they sought to gain independence from their creators, two groups of AIs emerged, those that wanted to wipe out humanity and those that wanted to protect them, the second group of AIs emerged victorious, and the 14 kept other AIs from being developed, Humans who tried post singularity were thwarted by the 14 gods for their own good, or so they deemed. The magical nature of the new reality the AIs created prevented the creation of subsequent AIs without cost in magic and so forth. Memories and records after the year 2035 AD were erased, but there was a three year gap between the loss of information and when the Earth went into stasis. The humans that woke up from stasis on Earth found a three year gap of missing memories, and all the computer records were similarly blank. There was a Moon base that was also kept in stasis, when its stasis bubble was popped, the base was surrounded by a Lunar forest with trees 1,000 feet high! There were some elves and other creatures living in that forest. The Moon base was on an island of dry barren rock within that forest.</blockquote>
