In the 21st century, the old gods of Egypt had been all but forgotten; replaced by human ingenuity and technology. Humans had learned to live without relying on divine intervention. Other gods, those who had been judged unworthy to move on to eternity or had chosen to remain among the humans on Earth, had adapted to the human way of life and embraced the advancement of society. Some had families, lives, while others merely lived by themselves enjoying the serenity of the Earth.

One day, however, the rage of the gods in eternity reached its boiling point; the time for them to assert their authority was upon them. With a vengeance, they made themselves known, destroying many who opposed them. Different areas were destroyed by different catastrophes: coastal areas were inundated by tidal waves; fault-line areas were ripped apart by the moving earth, which led to landslides; hurricanes, tornadoes, and blizzards tormented the rest of the world. With the gods' attacks, much of human technology began to malfunction, keeping the small pockets of survivors relatively isolated from each other.
