Humanity has brutally expanded into the stars, conquering the vast galaxy like wildfire. Thousands of planets are now in mankind's grasp.
This expansion was lead by the Great Council, who united humanity in troublesome times.
But many years of stagnation have caused the Great Council to become corrupt and selfish. Problems get ignored, growing larger, and yet the councillors are feuding over petty politics.
It must come to an end, or humanity will surely perish.

The Oracle Trilogy Book One Ohm's Node
It's 2035. After worldwide walks of tears and protests of the scientific community joined by artists, and millions of people who demanded oil companies and other carbon emitters stop, a consortium of the world's wealthiest, tech and Heads of State is convened, setting down a Hail Mary manifesto with an 'everything on the table' epic approach to reestablishing a habitable planet by 2200.

ARCHIVE-XC9: TERRA
For centuries, humanity believed itself to be alone in the universe. The stars were distant, silent, and indifferent until the silence was broken. When a deep-space exploration vessel, UFS Pioneer, was attacked by unknown hostiles when they arrived to Alpha Centauri B. Two decades later, another deep-space exploration vessel, but this time unmanned and armed, arrived at Alpha Centauri B and makes an unprecedented discovery, an unknown civilization with human DNA identical to their own, everything humanity thought they knew about their origins is shattered. As star-faring nations scramble to unravel the mystery, tensions rise, alliances fracture, and the race to uncover the truth begins. But in the depths of the cosmos, beyond the reach of human understanding, something stirs. Ancient ruins whisper of lost empires. Unseen forces bend the very fabric of reality. And lurking in the void, an enemy waits-an anomaly so vast, so consuming, that it threatens to unravel existence itself. As humanity ventures further into the unknown, one question echoes through the corridors of power, the minds of scientists, and the whispers of those who dare to seek the truth: "If we are not alone... then what exactly are we?"

Mass Effect: Imperialis
(AN: I plan to conquer the Milky Way galaxy.) In the aftermath of the Great Galactic War, the Sith withdrew into the uncharted depths of the unknown regions, their empire splintered and fractured by infighting. Amidst the chaos, a force-wielding noble of House Thule, Adrian Thule, rose as an unlikely savior of order. With charisma, tactical brilliance, and a vision of unity, Adrian rallied those disillusioned by Sith tyranny. Over two decades of brutal civil war, his armies crushed the Sith remnants, forging a new empire from the ashes of discord. This new empire chose secrecy, its leaders deeming the greater galaxy unworthy of their renewed strength. They withdrew into the vast void, colonizing and conquering the unknown regions of their home galaxy. Unshackled by external interference, they built a civilization both advanced and unyielding, guided by Thule's principles of discipline, power, and order. The galaxy they left behind forgot them, but they did not forget the galaxy. Two and a half millennia have passed since Adrian Thule's ascension, and the empire, its strength unmatched within its borders, has turned its gaze outward. The unknown regions are no longer a frontier-they are the empire's dominion. Driven by curiosity, ambition, and an innate sense of destiny, their explorers have begun probing the borders of other galaxies. The Milky Way is their first discovery. A galaxy teeming with life, its fractured alliances and diverse civilizations present both opportunities and threats. The empire, watching from the shadows, prepares to make its move. Will the Milky Way prove to be a theater for conquest, an ally against the unknown, or a stage for a cataclysmic clash of civilizations? The echoes of Adrian Thule's legacy resonate through time as the empire stands at the brink of a new chapter, poised to redefine the fate of two galaxies. The question is no longer whether the galaxy is ready for the empire-it is whether the empire is ready for the galaxy.
