[ spaaaace ] ❚ beyond the milky way.
( concept art by roberto robert )
Humanity lost their claim to the Earth millenia ago, when beings from other worlds claimed the titles of gods. They wear the faces of animals, walk the Earth with man and take them as their followers and vessels. For time beyond memory and mortal lifespan their breed has held power over humans, shaped their lives and their world and reaped the benefits of their worship.

BEYOND THE MILKY WAY The prelude to Earth's destruction began when Dr. Leandro Silveira, a Brazilian historian, discovered a dying creature in the Egyptian pyramids; its body was that of a tall man but its face was a goat's - just like the god Pan was described. As it died in the arms of Dr. Leandro, it spoke its last words with its dying breath.
Meus irmãos irão trazer a justiça para aqueles que nos esqueceram.*
When death took the creature, Earth began to die as well. The tectonic plates began to move, shifting alike they had an agenda, a mind of their own, a will. Earth grew unstable and humanity was forced to focus all of its efforts to building spaceships that could harbour human life. By then, technology was already advanced enough but never such project had been made and though their first try was a disaster, the second time around they were helped by beings of another world, the Ghedans. While the barrier of language was not simple to overcome, soon it was discovered that they had a similar language to the Hadza tribe and the first successful spaceship was built, the Apollo SC-1. As the Ghedans led humanity through the Milky Way and into another galaxy, a mostly deserted Earth was left behind. It took them twenty years to find the Azure Plane, the galaxy known as the Galactic Dock. As they reached the InterGalactic Parliament, humanity began to take a political and diplomatic role, slowly earning a steady place in the United Worlds Federation. It was there that they learned that the goat-headed man that had brought Earth's extinction was part of an ancient race that planned to take over the galaxies.
Receiving authorization of the InterGalactic Parliament, humans began to search for a world they could colonize and ended up finding one that suited their needs, a Mars-sized planet that was named Earthrise by its discoverer, Grand Admiral Naveed Kassis of the UWF Colonial Apollo IV. As they settled in and began to make Earthrise their homeworld, humans also continued to struggle to earn the respect and acknowledgement of their fellow species in the UWF and the Parliament. With Earthrise now listed as their official homeworld, humans were no longer considered nomads and began to be able to enlist in the Space Force, the intergalactic army sponsored by the UWF.
After years in service of the SF-UWF, humans were recognized as a valuable asset to the army and were authorized in creating their own space army. Founded by the then Earthrise Madame-Ambassador Lorenza Galluzzi, the Space Navy was officially recognized, but it would only be after the non-governmental human corporation, Midgard Corps., sent the Asgardreid iGSB-2 in a reconnaissance mission that they would be considered as equals, but only because humans were able to apreehend one of those ancient beings.
Nevertheless, the imprisoned Sobek has not spoken a word ever since, it has become clear that these creatures seem to hold many secrets - the cure for the sumu kuua, a deadly disease that can affect all species; where its brothers are; the solution to some of the fuels shortage, especially a different source of fuel; among many others. That is, if in the meantime Sobek does not escape...
*My brothers shall bring justice to those who have forgotten us.
