The universe
2267 AD: humanity divided
In 2267 AD, the fragile unity of humanity's frontier colonies shatters. The Scion Empire, forged by Emperor Milo Balthazar after the downfall of the Earth Colonies Federation, faces a rebellion as colonies secede and the Amalgamate Republic rises. Caught between them, the Atlas Corporation guards its interests with a private navy.
As the war spreads across human-colonized space, it awakens ancient powers and long-buried secrets, and forces humanity to face the oldest question of all: are we alone?
