In the not too distant future, humanity has gradually United into a single global faction and spread across the many plants and moons in the Solar System. One day, a small vessel of unknown, alien origin would arrive, a scout sent by an alien empire spanning across dozens of worlds, looking for new planets to colonize…

Not long after peaceful first contact was established, entire fleets of merchant ships began making their way towards Earth and its colonies, eagerly looking forward to staking their claims and meeting new business partners. It wouldn’t be long before humanity became assimilated into an alien empire.

(What makes this setting different from so many others is that humankind isn’t the center of everything or the ruling faction, but instead just one of several species a living under the rule of an established galactic community.)
