Humans decided to place genetically diverse, “perfected” human embryos in a space ship to store on the moon. If at any time on Earth there was sudden destruction and all life vanished, the project would be activated. The human embryos would be released in waves of thirty every thirty years. Living in a self-sustained community on the moon, human-like robots would care for the babies until it was safe to return to earth. Earth would be monitored by probes sent periodically from the Project House. The areas showing the greatest amount of stable life would be kept in memory. Only when the monitor reaches a safety point will the robots send a programmed ship, based on the findings of the monitors, back to Earth.
These humans have had no typical parenting, but then, they don’t realize it. The robots teach them basic English and mathematics, but mostly elaborate on understanding the body in which each exists. Only extensive medical journals and textbooks about human anatomy exist as a reminder of the previous world. Not even a bible is placed within the walls.
The fathers and mothers, as the robots refer to them, called the children the Renewers. They are what is left of a forgotten civilization. The children themselves know nothing of what was. The Earth has rebuilt itself and now waits patiently for its children to come and thrive again.
Living only by the rules the past left for them, a book of lessons learned by the past Earth, they must succeed in a lonely land where only they rule. They must build a home in a place unknown to any of them. They must renew the successes of the old Human culture and instinctively choose between right and wrong. They are the creators. They are the beginning.
