WHAT IF YOU COULD CHOOSE THE PLANET OF YOUR BIRTH? Born aboard a
deep space cruiser on a dangerous research mission, you are asked
to choose your home planet. Your parents are from different planets
in different galaxies. Their planets are alike enough so that you
will not be a freak on either one. But they are different enough so
that YOUR choice will have a huge effect on your life. The planet
Kenda is visible on the galaxy scanner. Now that you have chosen,
your parents announce that Kenda is your father's home. The crew of
the spaceship carefully prepares a spacepod for the journey to
Kenda. Seating yourself at the controls and positioning the
programmed flight path, you disengage from the mother ship and
drift off into space... Something is wrong! You look at the scanner
and see a nebula that is not supposed to be on your course.
Suddenly the gases and particles of the nebula surround you. If you
