In | The game takes place in the year 3118. Mankind has ventured deep into space, colonizing and terraforming worlds and setting up space stations at strategically important locations. In the years past, space was practically a warzone, as roving bands of space-pirates attacked ships and colonies alike, and the colony security fleets fought back with tooth and nail. After over a century of violence and turmoil, the colonies formed an alliance: the United Earth Federation, in order to form a centralized government and to combat the pirates. | ||
The following military campaining lasted for decades, and resulted in making the galactic coreworlds safe for travellers and convoys. Only pirate sightings come from the furthest reaches of the galaxy, where only small mining colonies and military installation still function. As the UEF fleets became more efficient, the massive numbers of ships became useless and entire units were disbanded. | |||
One such military installation, the now obsolete UEF research installation on a small barren moon labeled simply as LR-05, is being decomissioned. Most of its building materials will be recycled, but some of its equipment will be sent the the 'Black Hole disposal facility' in the very core of the galaxy. To transport the two containers there, the local UEF administration hires a small transportation company, hoping to avoid pirate and other attention to the shipment. The company, run by just three people with an old UEF cargo ship, takes the job, loads up the cargo and head towards the galactic core. | |||
Only a few weeks into the flight, still in the outer reaches, the ships automated systems awaken the crew from hypersleep, informing them of an emergency: something has exploded inside the cargo bay. The crew begins to investigate, but not everything is as it seems. | |||
