ANNOUNCER:
A hundred-thirty years hence is the time in the universe of the story.
Our earth has finally torn itself apart
with the warring factions.
Atheists...
and the Mithraics.
A clash of religion against scientific beliefs.
Raised by Wolves.
It's the new beginning.

(SHRIEKS)
(HOWLS)
FATHER:
two androids are captured by the Atheists.
One, a service model.
And the other, a Necromancer.
MOTHER:
FATHER:
The service model is renamed Father.
MOTHER:
of multiple human embryos.
Mother is modified to provide the nutrients
and life support to bring the fetuses to term.
Go now. Start over.
You are the new mother of humanity.
FATHER:
a barren planet and part toxic,
covered in deep bottomless pits and giant serpent bones.
Populated only by primitive grotesque creatures.
But most importantly, perfectly sustainable to humans.
MOTHER:
He is called Campion,
named for Mother and Father's creator.
We no longer have any hope of increasing our numbers.
There is only Campion.
And when we break down, he will be alone.
He needs to be with other humans.
Even if the Mithraic are delusional,
he is better off with them than with no one.
CAMPION:
to the hovering ark.
This brings Mithraic soldiers. Among them is Caleb.
CALEB:
(LASER SHOTS)
He'd been fighting in the Atheist army
since he was just a boy.
MARY:
Caleb and his partner, Mary, steal the identities
of high ranking Mithraic dignitaries,
Marcus and Sue...
Can these things do plastic surgery?
MARY:
a transport bound for Kepler-22b, the new Eden.
PAUL:
had a kid called Paul.
And they pretended to be his parents.
CALEB:
maintained by two androids and a human child.
To Marcus' dismay,
one of the androids is a Necromancer.
(SHRIEKING)
CALEB:
and kidnaps five Mithraic children.
One of those children is Paul.
MARY:
and a small band of survivors from the ark.
Sue is determined to rescue Paul from the androids.
CAMPION:
not built to be a mother.
She won't let them pray,
and then they begin to get very sick,
like the other children did.
PAUL:
Against Campion's better judgment,
Father decides that they will hunt and eat
the indigenous creatures instead.
CALEB:
Marcus hears voices and believes them to be
that of the Mithraic sun god, Sol.
He proclaims himself the Prophet foretold by the scriptures.
The orphan boy who will come to lead the race
into the next evolution of humanity.
And so, a lifelong Atheist and enemy of the Mithraic,
has become a believer.
And their leader.
CAMPION:
so he asks him to steal Mother's eyes
to take away her power.
MARY:
However, Marcus's behavior becomes increasingly erratic.
Fearing for her and Paul's safety,
Sue escapes with the children.
CAMPION:
an area with a warmer climate, rain and vegetation.
CALEB:
so they ceased.
Seemingly abandoned by Sol,
Marcus's disciples assume treachery.
(GRUNTS)
(COUGHING)
CALEB:
Thank you, Sol.

MOTHER:
Mother unlocks encrypted memories
about her creator, Campion Sturges.
She learns that they fell in love.
And then...
she got pregnant.
AUTOMATED VOICE:
Sim is not intended for android interface.
(SIMULATION POD POWERS DOWN)
MOTHER:
would be the start of a new perfect species,
and the future of civilization.
FATHER:
of jealousy and inadequacy.
I'm afraid I've reached a point of intolerance with Mother, Campion.
Father! Father!
PAUL:
He believes that it is the voice of Sol.
He thinks maybe he is the orphan boy from the prophecy.
Then the voice tells Paul
that Sue isn't actually his mother,
and that she's been lying to him for a very long time.
-(LASER SHOT) -(SUE GASPS, WINCES)
MOTHER:
It's upon this holy site where she insists upon giving birth.
FATHER: Mother!
The assailant is in possession of an undeveloped human skull,
but one not formally of Earth.
It would seem humans have populated Kepler-22b for centuries, but...
they are not evolving.
They're devolving.
leading to the conclusion
that the prowling, stilt-like creatures
are actually a lower form of human.
MOTHER:
This one appears to be of an android,
the idol from her visions.
This realization sent Mother into labor.
(GASPING PAINFULLY)
CAMPION:
she issues a serpent.
FATHER:
as well as the serpent,
the two fly deep into one of the planet's pits,
expecting to burn up in its molten core.
They didn't.
