Generations after the Scream which brought the Terran Mandate to its destruction, generations past the failure of the jumpgates, and the near stoppage of interstellar trade and travel, generations since the the darkest of the dark age, lights of civilization burn again. In one such quadrant of the former Mandate, the Bael Federation is engaged in a cold war with the Star Kingdom of Las Cruicus. In face of the great threat of the transgene aristocracy of Las Cruicus the Federation has in the past century forgone many of its civil liberties as it lumbers on emergency rule of the National Salvation Committee. In the halls of Rinset City, the leaders of the Federation know unless something drastically changes that the Kingdom thanks to its vast wealth of archeotech from its home system will eventually reactive enough old Mandate gear and ships to turn the cold war hot.
In light of such menace, drastic measures are being undertaken. The first is Operation Unthinkable, which is only whispered by-the names of the General Staff and the Sky Marshal's office along with the build up of military to levels that may see the Federation collapse from its own economic ruin. Another option is Prometheus Project. One of the battle grounds between the Star Kingdom and the Federation is the Aesir Sector, once one of the crown jewels of the Mandate it has fallen on hard times, but recovered records suggest that somewhere in the sector is a Ragnarok Archive, what is stored in there is unknown, the validity of the records is suspects, it very much a long shot.
This where you come in. Either blacklisted spacer and naval officers, political prisoners with skills to be used in the field, or even career criminal's you have been given a ship and a mandate, for you to return back home you must find the Archive or disprove its existence and do it in timely manner before the National Salivation Committee regrets freeing you and giving you a ship.
