On the morning of January 20, 2001 the climax of the Cold War set the post-apocalyptic stage for the series. The end game began with a pre-emptive strike on Washington. Underground nuclear bombs were detonated from within the basement of the Soviet embassy, by an elite group of Spetsnaz operatives, destroying the central command structure and political system of the United States. For an indefinite period of time a nuclear exchange between the United States and the Soviet Union devastated both countries and subsequently the entire planet (but little details are known outside both countries). All manner of genetic contagions were released infecting the survivors of the firestorm with horrible illnesses. The remaining survivors lived harshly during a time of prolonged nuclear winter known as 'Skydark'. The geography, climate, and ecosystems of the world had changed dramatically. What was left of the United States came to be known as the Deathlands.

On ever wave that breaks
In ever soul that aches
You know it, the feeling
You want somebody
The message is loud and clear
I wonder if you can hear
This beating repeating
Inside my body
It only comes on me when I know you're near
I hear the message calling fire fire
Love is a language that tells no lies
I hear heartbeat
I feel love rise
I lose all control in your eyes
I hear heartbeat
I feel love rise
I'm close enough to know you know why
The rhythm of my passion grows
I feel it down in my soul
The promise the promise
That you'll discover
I'm reading your mind and if you're reading mine
The current is burning up the wire higher
