Interstellar Age
It is the year 2500, and humanity has expanded its reach beyond the confines of Earth. In a distant sector of the galaxy, a young man named Erich "Silber" Jaeger is born into a dystopian empire that tightly controls the lives of its citizens. Growing up in a society rife with discrimination, Erich faces an uncertain future as he approaches military conscription. He will spend the next two decades of his life serving in the Armed Forces of the Germanic Star-Empire, fighting against the many enemies of the authoritarian state. As he navigates the treacherous landscape of interstellar warfare, Erich must grapple with his own ambitions and loyalties. Will he rise through the ranks to become the next dictator of the empire, or will he meet a gruesome end on the battlefield? Join Erich on his journey through the Interstellar Age, as he confronts the challenges of war, politics, and personal identity in a universe filled with danger and intrigue.
Entering the Cesspit
The Journey to their destination was a long one. Even with a corvette acting as their ship, one that was equipped with the most advanced technology that the Empire could manufacture, it still took several months to arrive at Alpha Centauri.
During this time Erich familiarized himself with his new team members, as well as the mission which they were about to embark upon. When he was not reading over the dossier which he had been given by Ghost, he was interacting with the men in the mess, where they drank and talked about war stories while also playing cards.
In fact, Erich enjoyed the time he spent with these men, as it made him feel like he actually had some friends. After all, the men he had met at the academy were all dead. Ever since then, Erich had never really bonded with any of his other comrades.
