On an alien planet, blue-skinned child Strive contemplates the night sky. Wonder turns to horror as a sinister polyhedron appears and absorbs all of the stars.

Years later, a despondent Strive is mourning the empty sky when a mysterious space ship crash-lands nearby. Strive blasts off and joins the Starlight Brigade to take the fight to the aliens.

Wonder, heroism and really good music ensue, [[https://youtu.be/J9Q3i5w6-Ug right here.]]
