Here's the true story of why Mars is red. Because Mars was so far from Earth, Humanity had created interdimensional portals to travel between planets instantly. However these portals came at a great cost. Trillions upon trillions of gallons of human blood had to be transfused into the portals yearly to keep them running, require billions of human sacrifices. The ground below Mars was filled with millions of miles of tubing to carry all the blood to the portals. When the Cabal attacked, they unleashed relentless hell on every being they encountered. Space Station Euphrates and it's thousands of inhabitants of women, children, and puppies were the first to be vaporized, followed by Outpost Gamma, which housed the last of the Marsicorns (similar to unicorns but on Mars). By the time the fighting was done, billions of lives were lost, and the explosions had ruptured the underground blood wells, and destabilized the interdimensional portal. This caused the sacrificed human blood to stain the entire planet, and teleport it to the 4th position in the solar system.
