- Summary:
- Subject: It's the first decade of the 22nd century. After a complete ecological collapse, Earth is close to becoming uninhabitable. Wars and hunger are all most know, and only those with ungodly amounts of wealth can hope to escape to the only place where a sliver of hope remains: space. A few hundred live in the obscene luxury of the nascent Mars colony, while the rest of the solar system is being slowly taken over by the megacorporations, eager to extract the last drop of usable resources. That is, until Drake Industries bought the exploitation rights of yet another rock in the Main Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter. The momentous discovery that hundreds of alien ships remained dormant - a literal treasure trove of technology - within this lifeless asteroid. According to Drake Industries, this immediately justified building a proper station for the cold rock: Karum Station. After decades of studies conducted by Drake Industries scientists (whom achieved little more than simply turning on these incomprehensible artifacts), it was discovered that each ship contained several hundred archived coordinates of unknown "sites". The Karum Station Authority was promptly established to organize expeditions to these locations.
