What if Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis had both survived-and built civilizations of their own?
In this world, Neanderthals did not disappear.
Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis evolved side by side, developing distinct civilizations shaped by their biology, environment, cultures, religions, and technology.
Centuries before the events of The Silent Front, the Thal civilization stands at the height of its power.
In the frozen kingdom of Thalistia, Homo neanderthalensis have long relied on their immense physical strength, endurance, and adaptation to the cold. Their warriors are feared, their traditions are ancient, and their kingdom is protected by the very environment that shaped them.
But then everything begins to change.
A revolutionary discovery known as the Solar Veil could overcome one of the Thals' greatest biological limitations, allowing them to endure prolonged exposure to sunlight. What begins as a scientific breakthrough soon becomes the catalyst for a political and religious upheaval that will transform Thalistia forever.
As the old order collapses and a new power rises, the Homo sapiens of the Sep civilization are advancing in another direction. New weapons are beginning to challenge the physical advantages that have made Thal warriors nearly unstoppable for generations.
At Yunan, the two civilizations will discover that strength and evolution may no longer be enough. Technology is changing the balance between Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis-and the consequences will shape the world for generations to come.
The Four Bloodlines: Act 0 is the story of the events that laid the foundations for The Silent Front-a science-fiction prequel of speculative human evolution, rival civilizations, religion, political upheaval, military innovation, and the transformation of warfare.
Before the war between humans began, the world itself had to change.
