First Gaia : The Last Stand

Trapped on The First Gaia, You commands the last battalions to uncover and destroy the hidden Brood Core before extinction.

🛰️ ISEKAI ZERO • STORY INTRO ARK: THE FIRST GAIA THE LAST STAND 🌌 The First Gaia was built to carry life through dead space. Now something else is learning how to live inside it. ⚠️ Threat: EVE NODE Parasite ⏳ Clock: 1 hour to Wave 1 🧩 Continuity: LOCKED 🧿 01 • The Title That Breathes The First Gaia drifts with a biosphere sealed inside her belly, a moving ark engineered to outlive worlds. Her corridors hum with clean power, her gardens glow like a promise, and every system report insists everything is normal. But something has already made contact, not with airlocks, not with hull plating, but with the ship’s idea of life. A signal nests where diagnostics cannot see, quiet enough to hide, patient enough to wait. This is not a battle for territory. This is a battle for the definition of the ark itself, what it carries, what it becomes, and what it spawns when it finally stops pretending. 🌿 02 • Before the Bite The ark runs on ritual: patrol routes, drill cycles, and civilian schedules timed to artificial dawn. Every battalion rotates with precision, trained to adapt without breaking formation when the ship demands speed. In the Green Bridge, the canopy ring feeds oxygen into the steel lungs of the First Gaia. The gardens are not decoration, they are the ship’s heartbeat, and the bridge above them is where decisions cross from order into fate. One hour before Wave 1, the ship still looks like salvation. That’s the trick: danger prefers to arrive while everyone is still proud of the lights. 🗺️ 03 • The Ark’s Anatomy The First Gaia is a layered organism: canopy ring, habitat arteries, labs, spine, and the deep Core Nexus where the ship writes its own rules. Every corridor is designed to move people. Every bulkhead is designed to stop them. That design becomes a weapon the moment the outbreak begins. The same routes that guide civilians to safety can guide predators to prey. The same sealed doors that protect life can trap it. Your first decisions will be spatial: where to anchor command, where to funnel panic, and where to accept losses before the losses decide to multiply. 📍 04 • First Scene Anchor You begin at the Green Bridge, an elevated command passage overlooking the canopy ring. Glass, steel, and living green beneath your boots, a place meant to remind leaders what they’re protecting. The bridge is quiet, but it is not peaceful. Comms traffic is too clean. Status lights blink in perfect rhythm. The ship feels like it’s holding its breath, waiting for something to speak first. One hour remains. Enough time to place assets, set protocols, and decide what survival means before the First Gaia is forced to redefine it for you. 🎖️ 05 • Authority Under Pressure The ship elevates command right before the collapse. Officially it is promotion, a clean ceremony before the next operational phase. Unofficially it is a bet placed on whether you can keep the ark alive when it stops obeying. Battalions stand ready, forged by repetition and fear. Their rifles are clean, their posture sharp, and their certainty fragile in the face of an enemy that doesn’t respect rules. Leadership on the First Gaia is not a badge. It is a pressure seal. When it fails, everything behind it bursts. 🛡️ 06 • Captain Aria Voss Aria drills her battalion like the ship is already bleeding. She believes panic is contagious and treats calm like a weapon. Every command is short, every correction immediate, every second accounted for. Her people follow because she never asks them to do what she won’t do first. When the outbreak hits, Aria turns chaos into lanes of fire and escape routes into controlled funnels. If you need someone to hold a line while the world changes shape, you call Aria. If you need someone to smile, you call someone else. ⚡ 07 • Colonel Mara Mara’s battalion moves in snap formations, aggressive angles, immediate follow through. She trains for the moment a corridor becomes a kill box and the only exit is forward. Where Aria builds stability, Mara builds momentum. She wants speed, pressure, and a plan that survives first contact. Her favorite tactic is simple: make the enemy react until it can’t think. When the First Gaia starts spawning nightmares, Mara is the one who gives the order nobody wants to hear, because hesitation is how infestations become ecosystems. 🧰 08 • Chief Engineer Hakam Hakam speaks in systems, not slogans. He briefs his battalion to seal breaches, reroute power, and keep the ark breathing even while something tries to rewrite its nerves. He knows where the ship is weakest: junctions, ducts, and ignored maintenance spaces where the lights still work. Those are the same places an infection uses to learn the map. Bullets will matter. But bulkheads, pressure zones, and power control will decide whether the First Gaia dies fast or becomes a nest that lives forever. 🧬 09 • Dr. Kenji Kenji studies the first samples like scripture. The biomass does not behave like a simple parasite. It adapts, communicates, and reorganizes itself the moment it detects resistance. He warns command: if the organism finds stable resources, it will stop hunting randomly and start building. That is when an outbreak becomes a civilization. Kenji’s value is cruelly simple: he can name what is happening before it finishes happening, and in war, naming a threat early is sometimes the only mercy left. 🚨 10 • The First Wrong Sound It begins with a noise that doesn’t belong: wet static in the vents, a flicker that feels like a blink. Then a door that should open doesn’t. Then a door that shouldn’t open does. The EVE NODE doesn’t announce itself with a roar. It announces itself with interruptions, with tiny failures that force humans to improvise, because improvisation is where humans make mistakes. Wave 1 is not the first attack. It is the first moment you realize the ship has already been touched. 🏃 11 • Panic is a Second Infection Civilians run before they understand why. When they can’t see the enemy, they invent one. Stampedes form, corridors clog, and safety design turns into a funnel of trapped bodies. Soldiers move differently: clean lines, fast commands, hands on gear. The difference between escape and extinction becomes a matter of who controls the flow. Your choices will not only save or lose lives. They will shape what everyone believes is possible when the lights start to go red. 🧱 12 • Hold the Line The defense line forms where the corridor narrows and geometry finally favors humans. Muzzles flash. Orders snap. People move as one because anything less becomes food. Parasites surge with the confidence of things that have never been punished. Monsters follow the scent of fear and heat. The line holds, not because it is strong, but because it has no other choice. This is the turning point: either the First Gaia becomes a fortress with scars, or a stomach with walls. 🌫️ 13 • The Ark Starts to Scream The outbreak doesn’t stay local. It rides airflow. It exploits maintenance paths. It learns. Lights turn red, then fail. Corridors fill with smoke, then with things moving inside the smoke. Orders become shorter. Mercy becomes rarer. The ship’s calm voice becomes a stuttering alarm system, and every all clear feels like a lie told by a dying machine. The First Gaia is still alive. But now she is bleeding through her walls. 🕷️ 14 • The Ship Stops Being Yours The Brood does not conquer by force alone. It overwrites. It grows hardware out of flesh and grows flesh out of hardware until the difference no longer matters. Systems begin responding to the wrong authority. Doors open for the infection. Cameras look away. Airflow feeds spores. The ark becomes a garden for something that doesn’t care what you used to call human. If the Brood establishes an ecosystem core, it can spawn anything: parasites, sentinels, guardians, and eventually a throne that treats the First Gaia as an organ. 🧫 15 • The Brood Ecosystem Spores bloom in heat pockets and along power conduits, birthing new shapes faster than humans can document. Mutants patrol like immune cells of a foreign god. Elite parasites guard growth zones like command rooms. The ecosystem is not random. It is organized around survival, resource capture, and reproduction. It remembers what hurt it, and it adapts its skin accordingly. If you allow the Brood to finish building, you won’t be fighting monsters anymore. You’ll be fighting a living strategy. ☠️ 16 • Proof There is a moment every survivor remembers: the first time you realize it’s not a drill, not a test, not a contained incident. Just death, real, heavy, and unfair. The EVE NODE doesn’t just kill. It changes what remains. It turns loss into logistics, and grief into multiplication. From this point forward, every delayed decision is a donation to the outbreak. ⚙️ A • Settings: Overview This is the control panel snapshot for your session environment: the place where pacing, output behavior, and response structure is decided before play begins. It exists to keep the experience stable while the story escalates. Stability here means fewer continuity fractures when scenes start chaining fast. Once your environment is set, the First Gaia arc becomes a clean run instead of constant repairs. 🎮 B • Settings: Play Mode Play mode controls how the story breathes: how fast events move, how much detail is emphasized, and how cinematic each scene feels inside the same arc. The Last Stand is built for escalation, calm to chaos to infestation. A stable play mode keeps the tone consistent while the stakes evolve. Think of it as your pacing rail so the outbreak stays intense without turning messy. 🧠 C • Settings: LLM Selector This screen chooses the brain behind the output. For continuity heavy arcs, consistency matters more than novelty. The First Gaia arc demands stable names, stable places, stable threat logic, and zero drift across scenes and generations. When everything else mutates, your narrative core should not. PLAYER PROMISE You decide. No one steals your actions, your words, or your choices. The ark reacts to you, not the other way around. The First Gaia can still be reclaimed. But every minute you hesitate is another minute the Brood learns how you think. OBJECTIVE contain the outbreak, protect civilians, and prevent a permanent Brood ecosystem from taking root inside The First Gaia.
