Prologue

With the AllSpark gone, we cannot return life to our planet.
And fate has yielded its reward, a new world to call home.
We live among its people now, hiding in plain sight,
but watching over them in secret, waiting, protecting.
I have witnessed their capacity for courage.
And though we are worlds apart, like us, there’s more to them than meets the eye.
I am Optimus Prime
and I send this message to any surviving Autobot taking refuge among the stars.
We are here.
We are waiting.
