The Payback

Technology has always been a friend to us. A tool. A way to sustain the dutiful position as head of the food chain. We held that throne on our own planet for centuries with the use of our dear technology. Possibly even growing bored with the order of our own planet. Learning there was more to conquer, more the claim, and more to rule. Clearing and owning new planets then became our new greed. Some grew old enough to see our technology lead us to new heights. Those of us left now are here to face the wraith of our own creations.

Heya LNPrime! Cool take on this prompt! I was eager for more. What happens next? The sign of a solid start 🥳


“…growing bored with the order of our own planet.” Yikes. Sounds so dangerous and real. It also sounds like a fabulous launch point for the rest of the story. Bored people make some pretty rash decisions!


My feedback regards character development. We’ve yet to be solidly introduced to the character(s) 😅 Are these humans? Are they an alien species? You could manage to take this in several cool directions. I think you’ve done well to give me an idea of how these individuals feel, I just need to know who they are. Hope this helps!
