[B]Just a quick description of the calendar mechanics used for the purpose of this story:[/B] For every week (turn) in the actual game universe I have replaced with a month in the story. So if it takes 4 weeks to build a ship in the game, in the story it will take 4 months. By this reckoning, every 3 months (12 weeks) in the actual game universe would correspond to a year (12 months) in the story and every game year would correspond to 4 years in the story. I have done this so

[B]From Lagrosse’s Encyclopedia of Quantum Dynamics and Photon Emission Mechanics, circa. GY 23…[/B] The concept of hyperspace travel is based solely on the manipulation of naturally existing energies – like gravity and photonic emissions. Although seemingly simple in concept, the actual implementation of this concept requires massive levels of power and a thorough knowledge of miniaturization, which explains why civilizations take so many years of evolution to break out of the Pre-Hype

Okay, so here we are once again, with another tale of glory and sacrifice, but with a difference. It is the rule of nature that all things evolve over time, get stronger and grow bigger. Empires grow & expand, and they also wither away in the sands of time. Great civilizations are built, flourish and then are destroyed, but they leave behind indelible footprints, the traces of which are always there for the true seekers of knowledge to find.
