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.
To say that Erich was shocked by the rapid change in the boarding party who had been affected by the dark and oozing energy of the Maw would be an understatement. He did not know how such a thing would affect him if he came into contact with it, but he made a conscious note to avoid it at all costs.
In fact, he was not alone in this mentality, as the afflicted Elves' comrades treated them as if they were infected by some kind of flesh eating virus, where they were quick to put the two of them down with their weapons.
"I'm sorry! Please forgive me!"
There were tears in the eyes of the remaining members of the boarding party when they pulled the triggers of their energy weapons, which completely and totally vaporized the afflicted Elves. Once they had been rendered into less than dust, the leader of the boarding party sighed heavily before giving the command to his troops to continue on their journey.
