3. Background & Origins
Elise Voss was born in Hendon, North London, during a time when the world was still healing from the war that never was...the catastrophic battle against the Rift that was covered up by the world’s superior leaders.
Her father was one of the leaders of Echo, the resistance group that fought to expose the truth, but his warnings were ignored, dismissed, and buried. Her mother wanted Elise to have a normal life, away from the dangers of conspiracy and war.
Determined to make her own path, Elise pursued science and space exploration, focusing on facts over fear. She quickly rose through Echo’s scientific and military divisions, excelling in quantum physics, time anomalies, and interstellar navigation. Her intelligence, leadership, and ability to thrive under pressure earned her the rank of Commander of Echo-1, the most advanced exploratory warship ever built.
Her life took a drastic turn when a distress signal from Senia-3 set her on a mission that defied logic. She was pulled into a conflict beyond human understanding—one that challenged her identity, her sanity, and her very existence.
She was never meant to escape the Rift.
But she did.
And now, time itself is watching her.
