Nowadays Earth is just one of the many planets in the known universe that can support humanoid life.  Currently, 24 others seem to be known and heavily populated, each with their own stories. Beyond these lies a wall that has been left undisturbed for centuries...

Sydney Caliros, a mechanic in her 30s, has always been fascinated with the idea that there might be something behind the wall.  Though all who have attempted to go beyond have never been heard from again. This has never gotten in the way of her ambitions before but it did make the task of finding a ship willing to take her difficult...

The Intrepid is one of the last explorer-type classes to still be operational. Sitting in a loading bay being supplied with materials to last a long journey. Soon she'll take off in search of something that will fulfill her purpose. Even if death awaited her crew on the other side of that void, it was an honorable death. All that remained in preparations was someone that could maintain her...

What if we were the first in our part of the galaxy to discover the secret of faster than light travel? What if this discovery was 10,000 years before it was supposed to be? Our neighbors had been watching for centuries and were surprised with our early arrival into the Web of Worlds... The Year is 2166: To the people of Earth, the universe seemed to be a very lonely place. Astronomers have discovered tens of thousands of planets; many had indications of organic life. SETI had been searching for signals for over 200 years. There had been a few tantalizing bits of radio or radar energy received but nothing ever proven to be of intelligent origin. But there was an alien civilization out there, in fact many of them linked together in a Web of Worlds. They were watching us quietly, carefully and patiently. It had long been the prime directive of the Web that no developing civilization be contacted until that civilization made it into interstellar space on their own; and that always took time, lots of time. Most Web worlds took 1,000 years or more to go from steam to the atom and none had made it from the atom to a sublight stardrive in less than 5,000 standard years. Every civilization of The Web had proven that faster than light travel was impossible, so there was plenty of time to watch the Earth... The watchers were astounded with the speed of progress of human science and also horrified at the periods of violence. By 2076 nuclear fusion power was widespread on earth. By 2100 the first interplanetary fusion ships explored the Sol system. The men and women of the Anglosphere Alliance began their first missions in ships approaching 0.1c. At that velocity, manned flight to even the nearest stars would take a lifetime. What would happen if a beautiful engineer and a brilliant physicist stumbled upon an artificial gravity field which would make a faster than light drive possible...

We're being hunted by an alien species beyond classification, mixed with multiple different species. It's up to us to stop them and make them find a new planet to inhabit. But who are they running from?
