Summary from Author's website:
Why would anyone come to a new world and leave Earth behind? What were they coming to? What were they running from? This is a background meditation on why the world we knew was populated with The Colonials, how the colonies were modelled, and other tidbits that give deeper understand the the game world as we know it. It also opens the door to a new world before the Shanthic-Human War and the loss of Shyee.
