Chapter Text

Setting- Mass Effect : The Dark Ages

Description:

"It is the 2250s. For more than 50 years, the galaxy has never known true peace. The Citadel Accord is an Traditional Authoritarian Empire where freedom is reviled and paranoia runs rampant across the different children of the galaxy. Yet even in this state, the Races of this current cycle stand united to fight against the horrors that threaten them. Mighty battlefleets and Vast armies give battle in the name of their civilizations on varying worlds upon the known galaxy, as soldiers across the galaxy, their comrades in arms are legion: The Chamber of Vigilance, Multitudes of Special Forces. Even so, they barely hold off the darkness assaulting upon their walls and homes, such as unknown alien horrors, the slaves of the Ancient Reapers, Rebellious Traitors or Worse.

To be a person in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the most bloodiest, most unstable and most dangerous times in recorded history of the galaxy. These are the stories of those times. Forget the hope of new frontiers, for the Universe has confirmed itself to be a cruel and unforgiving place. Forget the promise of safety and diplomacy, for in the times of the 2250s, such values are fickle and distrusted. Strong men create Good times. Good times create Weak men. Weak men create Dark Times, We are now in those Dark Times. No peace among these times, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the shrieking of thirsting gods. We must stand and fight the encroaching darkness of a ruined galaxy. "
