Re: Races history/traditions/roleplaying

This is as far as I am curently. Stole some bits of text too from Kargool.

The moon was closer than before, it was so close u could actually touch it… When the earth suffered from climate changes, some very extreme solutions were made in order to safe the human race. Some brave young man and women were sent along with military, scientists, engineers, medics and astronauts to head towards space. The stations that already existed were used as a base to copy their structure and expand them as huge platforms to live in and to shuttle new missions from close range. There were some serious attempts to discover ways to live beyond earth, discover planets to colonize and find new resources and air to breathe.

For once the nations of earth were working for common goal. Remarkable founding was made from a surface of an anonymous planet. This resource named as Eonium could be used as a power source for the existing stations. It would help the stations to power themselves and lower the need for supplies from earth. The mining had begun.

The breading travelers made soon another discovery, the atmosphere of space the emptiness, yet a rich endless environment had affected the born children aswell. The need for air to breath had lowered. Some of the born children were able to breath and bare very thin air. At this point it was clear the human race had envolved… the race of Terran were born.

This didn’t only mean the possible salvation, but also awoke the hunch of life beyond humans and earth.

Artificial Intelligence was used way before to run computers, programs, robots and even whole factories. It was also used plenty in the stations sent to space. Was clear it had already replaced partly the need for human touch and thinking, but someone out there was thinking, was it really something that we had created and made… was it something that was dependant on us, or was it something more...

She reflected back to the days in her office, illuminated by cool blue light, the only sounds were her fingers pressing the touch screen. She had sat there looking at the screen; having not yet gathered all the information; however she had been certain that she was right. The old stories she had heard as a child about the giant caves hidden under the planet’s surface were true. The legend told how their predecessors were storing their knowledge in the Library of Ages. She had kept it to herself for many days, before finding a geologist crazy enough to venture down there with her, in the past few days they prepared, and then traveled down to the caves.

Now as she studied the ancient texts she understood all of a sudden that the texts were written to her, and as they spoke to her she knew... She was the one they had been waiting for. She looked back at the geologist thinking to herself what to do with him, then she realized she must have triggered something because all of the sudden a bright light whisked her away from where she was standing, and into a hall. A gigantic statue was right in front of her, the hands of the statue reaching out for her, and in its hands a screen was standing.. She touched it, and at once understood. A soft metallic voice began to speak to her: “This is the wisdom of the ancients, the ones that walked here before you, we have seen how you relay on weapons, technology and believe in miracles. But I can tell u, don’t go out there on space without your radars turned on, don’t go to space at all before your intelligence gives you answears and most importantly don’t go to space, when you ignore everything around and right before your eyes. And the only miracle that u will see, is me giving u this advice. It is cold and dark world out there that we Cathaars have withnessed, yet u manage to let your surface melt, washing down your living environment down to nothing. ” The screen flimmered for a second, then the schematics for a drawing gleaned against her behind a layer of dust. She blew the dust away, sending heaps of the dust onto her clothes and her face, but she did not mind, she knew this was bigger than that. The schematics were those for a gun. “It is something old and ancient”, the voice continued, “but it does freezingly good job...”

As soon as the light had appeared as soon it was gone again. She poundered what the figure might have been, seeing how he stood with two legs, yet understood everything about nature and living on earth, it must have been something ancient, yet something far more intelligent than the robot it seemed to be, the figure would be called as Cathaar humanoid, one that seemed to value life.

Was this meeting about saving the earth from melting and to stop the climate changes, was this a message to save these humanoid creatures lurking in the caves along with the human and animal life, was this to warn us about something out there, or an attempt to hide something valuable that lived or laid in the space… Or is this all just one big lie? Atleast we wouldnt fall in to barbaric rival of races, when it seemed all to be about survival.
