地球は謎の異星文明同士の戦闘に巻き込まれました
The Earth is caught in a battle between mysterious alien civilizations
私達の技術水準を遙かに超えた兵器による戦闘
They fought with weapons that eclipsed even our state of the art technology
その理由も知らされないまま
地球は蹂躙され 大地は焦土と化しました
For reasons beyond our comprehension
the earth was ravaged, the land reduced to ash
事前に地球圏への戦闘の波及を察知していた
統合政府は 地球種汎移民計画 を発動
Before the fighting could spread to the geosphere,
the unified government put the GLOBAL MASS EVACUATION PLAN into effect
世界の主要都市からは数多の
恒星間移民船が飛び立ちました
Many interstellar immigration ships took off
from the major cities of the world
45億年の間
生命を育んでくれた故郷からの脱出
To escape from their birthplace and home planet
that had nurtured life for 4,500,000,000 years
ですが 移民船の多くは重力圏離脱の最中に
撃ち落とされ 無事脱出できた船はごく僅か
However, many of the ships were shot down while breaking through the gravisphere,
and very few were able to escape safely
私達の乗る 白鯨 はそのうちの一隻でした
Our craft, the Moby Dick, was one of those such ships
地球を後にし 放浪の旅に出て二年
After leaving the earth behind, we wandered space for two years
地球圏での戦闘から幸運にも
生き残ることが出来た私達でしたが
Thanks to our good luck,
we were able to survive the battle on the geosphere, but
ついに異星文明の追撃部隊に
見つかってしまったのです
In the end, the alien civilization’s pursuit forces
caught up to us
軍の決死の応戦と 一人の英雄の活躍によって
追撃部隊は退けられましたが
The pursuit forces were driven back
thanks to our troops’ fighting spirit and the efforts of a single hero, but
激しい戦闘で白鯨の主機関も大破
The Moby Dick’s main engine was damaged by the battle
航行能力を失った白鯨は
未知の惑星の重力に捉まり
Lacking propulsion,
the Moby Dick was caught in the gravitational field of an unknown planet
船体を崩壊させながら墜落していました
And crashed as the hull splintered apart
そして二ヶ月が経ちました
And so, two months passed…
