The final years of humanity's great Earth based civilization have become known as "The Data Wars". This period began roughly in 2125 A.D. (by measurement of the Gregorian Calendar) and lasted for what is estimated to be 100+ earth years. Riddled by resource scarcity, climate catastrophe, economic exploitation, cyber and physical combat, this is most certainly the darkest time in the history of Humans. Only one glimmer of hope existed. A newly awakened contingent of mycelial symbiotic entities have begun to lay the groundwork for the great lunar exodus. This composition explores various vignettes of the Data Wars period. Some historical accounts, some attempts at capturing the frail mind state of Humans resident to this age, and others a nostalgic longing for the diminishing beauty of Earth. Do not mistake this for absolute truth. Very few non anecdotal artifacts of the Data Wars escaped total annihilation. This is instead an attempt to construct a narrative from what limited knowledge exists so that we may not forget the folly of hubris.
