KNOW YOUR ENEMY - OR BE DEFEATEDAD 2204
An alien shipwreck is discovered at the limits of human expansion, so Security Director Feriton Kayne selects a team to investigate. The ship's sinister cargonot only raises bewildering questions, but could also foreshadow humanity's extinction. Back on Earth, we can make deserts bloom and extend lifespans indefinitely, so humanity seems invulnerable. We therefore welcomed the Olyix when they contacted us. They needed fuel for their pilgrimage across the galaxy, offering their technology in exchange. But were the Olyix a blessing or a curse?THE FAR FUTURE
Many lightyears from Earth, Dellian and his clan of genetically engineered soldiers are raised with one goal: they must destroy their ancient adversary, who caused mankind to flee across the galaxy. Otherwise, we'll be wiped out - and we're running out of time.'Loud, proud and beyond epic'
