Projet 5 on the way.

This is my creation. All rights reserved :P

This is the blog of a world i'm creating.

The story starts in the year 2132 as the Earth can no longer sustain human civilization. It is the year of the Great Schism. Two opposing ideologies left earth to restart anew in different parts of the galaxy... The Dominion and the Shadow Cast were born. The first ideology idolizes the infinite opportunities of space; The second conceals itself and tries to prosper discretely while attempting not to repeat the mistakes on Earth. For 5 centuries, the Shadow Cast remained unbeknowst to the Dominion. A decisive encounter with a third party however, forces the two societies to stumble upon and join up in order to survive the new threat.

The Dominion:

The 4 Primordial ships all landed on earth-like planets in the Perseus Arm within the milky way. All four planets had temperatures that could support liquid water. Each system was on average 100 light years apart. The expansion of the the colonies was extremely rapid. Within 150 years, the population within the Dominion grew almost 8 fold. Two dozens of secondary establishments have been created within that time frame. Within 400 years, over 20 systems in the Perseus Arm of the Galaxy have been colonized, with over 230 establishments of all sorts.

Shadowcast

The 5th ghost ship that have been salvaged from the prototype departed Earth days after the others. However, it set course towards the Norma Arm, on a gas giant's moon: Vespa. Unbeknowst to the Dominion, they prospered on their own, very differently. Relying with various resources essential to human consumption in nearby moons, there was no need for much expansion. Instead, they opted for the option of living unified and interconnected. Without spreading, they would stay unified and improve their own living. Bio-engineering and body enhancement for life prolongation became a high priority. Even 400 years later, the population remained just under 5 million human inhabitants (however, many robots/weak AIs available). Their key to survival is the art of stealth. Because they are unknown to the Dominion, many spies have been sent to the other civilization to scout their technologies in order to stay one step ahead.

Current Synopsis:

On a fringe World called F-04 (Ives) in the borders of the SPVC-23 System (Code named: Falthorn), Reynold Arcturus Freeman ( an astro-physicist in his late 30s) made some strange observations on various systems around him. Whole planets would be destroyed within an Earth month. It was as though they were eaten by fruit worms. Discovering a strange yet concerning pattern... he tried to announce it to officials. However, no help would come... Instead, telecommunications have been cut off. Whatever he discovered, it was arriving directly to Ives. This is how he meets Aurelya - a Shadowcast infiltrator who was investigating on a past abandonned project involving AI / nano-machineries -. Realising the threat as dangerous to both civilizations, Aurelya decided to take Reynold with her to the Shadowcast in order to start assessing a possible alliance with the Dominion against the new mysterious threat menacing to destroy many worlds within the galaxy.
