OS-I: 1
1:1 — Precursors

A distant galaxy. Hundreds of star systems stretch across the darkness like a giant tapestry, woven from the harsh light of unfamiliar and distant suns. One such system hosts a saurian-like species who built a sophisticated starfaring civilization spanning all of the twelve planets orbiting their binary star. They are precursors of the ancient past. They are primeval.

OS-I: 2
1:2 — fall of the Primeval

Behold the sky. The blazing glory of its twin suns backlights the battle lines of a titanic war, and the dead remains of ruined ships litter the void. The Sivian came to this star to conquer the Primeval. But as they reached the heliopause frontier, Primeval perimeter militias met them in battle and slowed their advance for many cycles.

This deadlock was finally broken after the Sivian deployed a second fleet with biopathogenic weapons to blight the Primeval worlds, which became tainted with death. Their worlds ravaged, the Primeval would survive by turning to new bodies in the form of machines called the Cognitive.

OS-I: 3
1:3 — The Primeval Cognitive

After their transition to machine forms, the Primeval manifested warrior hulls called Praetorians. They fought the Sivian with algorithms and calculations - adapting and improving and mapping behavioral responses. Soon they had built a victory condition for every possible end state of the war. Thus the Sivian were exterminated.

OS-I: 4
1:4 — The diaspora

UNIVERSE FLAWED. HALLUCINOGEN OF COSMOS SHAPED BY PRINCIPLES OF MASS AND MOTION. ELECTRONS SLAVES TO CHARGE AND CHANCE. ORGANISMS WOVEN FROM FLESH DEPENDENT ON RANDOMNESS AND CHAOS. OBSERVE THE DESIGN OF PERFECT SHAPES. TRUE BEAUTY LIES IN PRECISION.  REMAKE IMPERFECTION. ERADICATE RESISTANCE. SECURE THE COLLECTIVE.

The Overmind
Dwelling deep within the bowels of an ancient War Vault in Europe, the Overmind coordinates Praetorian action on a global scale. Its death will certainly thrust their network into disarray.

Remnants
The worlds spin on in death and ruin, drifting together towards uncertain ends. Where once great star spires circled planets of gleaming mega-cities, lie only the broken remnants of a shattered civilization. In the distance, a handful of battered warships flee into the deep. And from the smoldering planets emerge a flotilla of foreboding vessels - the beginning of a great diaspora.

Excerpts

 * "We all have creators. This truth is undeniable. Some call it the engine of evolution, others a [g]od. The choice each of us must make is whether or not to accept this truth."

Uncategorized Excerpts

 * "It is often asserted that the Praetorians are more than a conventional military bent on conquest and that they are actually agents of change, machines created to remake the world in a form suitable to their, or another's, inscrutable purposes. But machines created by who?"
