What story should we follow?

Samus Aran

Samus gritted her teeth as she braced for impact. The wormhole she'd traveled through had seriously damaged her ship; she hadn't had the time to do proper calculations or preparations before escaping the disappearing universe behind her, and now she'd found herself in the skies over an unfamiliar world. She did everything she could to pull up, and the ship's engines fought mightily.

But it wasn't enough.

The ship had too much momentum. The best Samus could do was aim the crash at a flat, empty patch of ground, or at the very least what looked to be one from her vantage point and hope for the best. The spacecraft screamed toward the ground, hitting the ground and skidding through dirt, plants and grass and kicking up a great cloud of dust. After spinning and tumbling wildly for what felt like hours, the ship finally came to a halt. Samus let out a deep breath she hadn't even been aware she'd been holding. She was still alive... and at this point, that had to be considered a win.


SAMUS ARAN

I have crashed on an unknown world after narrowly escaping some sort of universal collapse. I have lost contact with the Galactic Federation my fellow Bounty Hunters -- most likely permanently -- and my Power Suit has lost several functions. I don't know where I am, but I suspect it is unfathomably far from my native galaxy. Perhaps I am not even in the same universe.

My ship has been heavily damaged, but it is intact enough to serve as a temporary shelter and home base. This planet is habitable, but I will need to collect more information on the local flora and fauna to determine how hostile this place is. I do not know if this world in inhabited or not. I plan on resting tonight, then tomorrow, I will begin my exploration and gather information about this place.

What's next?
