Plot


The year is 220X. Technology has advanced rapidly since the age of the Internet, leading to the creation of new and more efficient modes of transportation, as well as the construction of futuristic cities, all linked together by three satellites orbiting the Earth—Pegasus, Leo, and Dragon. The satellites accomplish this by maintaining a network of EM Waves around the planet's atmosphere, thereby powering the invisible EM Wave World. The human population carries portable devices called Transers to interface with the EM Wave World and other electronic devices. Problems caused by criminals and EM Wave viruses manipulating the EM Wave World are commonly dealt with by the Satella Police. Geo Stelar has a device that can help him see EM Wave beings.
