Primer


A full-out intro to the Anatali Universe

Our Information Age ancestors believed after two thousand years, humanity would either rule the cosmos or be extinct. Both predictions were false. In 4128 A.D. this is the state of things.

We weren't destroyed by aliens (they were never found), and we were never annihilated by our own mistakes—though we tried. Despite our survival, humanity has yet to reach beyond a sliver of its potential. The world has ended and restarted, ended and restarted, and now we stand at the cusp of a new age where we've finally stopped fighting long enough to explore our tiny arm of the galaxy. The scope of the universe has never felt so large, but neither has our arrogance. With medicine we've reached a teasingly mortal immortality, so long yet finite under the curse of Mortality Shock. We've also found our alien life, though it was neither carbon-based nor intelligent. We've created people out of machines and have changed people into machines.

We've learned little in the last millennium except for our limits; however, times are changing. We've overcome our failures by embracing something that can never be touched. Dark Energy Theory is the source of our advancement, a technological revolution after centuries of stagnation. A private corporation named Anatali headed its research and development. While most believe the science will propel our race forward, others claim Anatali's recklessness will ultimately ruin us all.
