Historical Background
Upon further exploration of the Near Star Region, it seems to contain a series of space rifts. This is our first encounter with a rift that is strung out almost across the entire sector. If it moves it could be a blessing, or lead to some serious ship shifts. Looks like the enemy fleet is positioning to also take advantage of this rift. We are prepared and ready for whatever is about to happen.
The battle lines are drawn and you are in command. The rest is history?
