Currently kept in captivity following defeat in the Ore Wars by their enemy, the human remnant endured forced labor living beneath Ghost Glass Dome. Conscripted by the all-seeing Alliance to Diapsidorian Authority, their enslavement was not without all hope - three well-known, well-trained participants unwillingly enroll in an upcoming, annually televised event ineptly dubbed Freedom Runs. Populating the expanse of space beyond Pelagius Paradox*, diversity of life spanned the spectrum - Humanity gave rise to robots to further means of exploration. During the machine exploration, the robots conceived in circuitry, built, and furthermore received their Synthetic lifeforms demanding they perform duties, as did their programming built by their creator.

Once this broadcast reached the militant conscience, they received the threat of imminent domination as a declaration of war and quietly used it as excuse enough to invade further reaches of space under the auspices of mandated ore retrieval.

As the grand Ore War ensued, humanity eventually fell to superior synthetic numbers. With the Alliance officially claiming victory, ending the large-scale war, several people were lost, dead, or simply forgotten...
