Long ago, our ancestors traded peacefully with the sky people. Gold was bartered for advanced technology.

Two thousand years of mutually beneficial trade pass and humanity was almost ready to explore the stars with the multitudes of different sky people.

But then a slave trader, a greedy and vile man, set a "gold trap" and captured a sky maiden.

He planned to auction her off to the highest bidder; or better yet, demand a lucrative technological ransom from her sky people relatives.

But what he didn't know cost humanity dearly.

He had captured a royal princess. And her powerful relatives didn't bother with any trivial negotiations.

They easily rescued the princess, obliterated all human civilizations with any trading history with the sky people and left the solar system.

And thus, humanity was reset back to the stone age...
