During the battle over the fate of Earth 721, a closeted trans woman named Lynn gets cold feet about the plan to genocide an entire species. Feeling hopeless, she decides to sacrifice herself and everyone aboard her small frigate to protect a city of strangers down below.

A smuggler is forced land by dogged pursuers, only to find that it’s a one way trip. And that the planet in which he lands is populated entirely by women. And, that one man happening to land does not, ultimately, change that fact.

Long before the development of a space program, or any sort of interstellar discovery, Earth was locked in a war. A global conflict that would decide the owner of their planet’s future: normal humans or their nefarious, mystically altered foe. An Earth 721 short story.
