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.
Progressing as Planned
The war continued on in the background as Erich proceeded with his plans for Galactic Conquest following the defeat of the Naraku. Though he sent his Star Marines to hold the line against the Naraku in certain sectors of the galaxy as a means to appear like he was doing his part in the war effort.
The reality was that this was just a few worlds. And not even critical ones at that. The sieges and defenses of these planetary systems continued on much longer than Erich could have otherwise emerged victorious in.
This was specifically designed to make it appear like his forces were really just as evenly capable as the Naraku. Or slightly better. As they had proven in every battle waged that after a significant amount of time, casualties, and resources, they would emerge victorious.
