How it begins

You are a passenger, holding your ticket, on the colossal Luxury Millennium, the finest commercial spaceliner in the United Human Empire. It was supposed to be a routine journey between Earth and the Arnath Prime colony, but the Millennium was blasted out of hyperspace by a Zarvonae battleship.

Knocked out by the shock wave in the first attack, you regain consciousness an unknown time later in your well-appointed cabin, but it's obvious the danger isn't over. Warning lights are flashing. Sirens blare. A holo schematic shows several areas depressurizing and losing power. And you hear an explosion in the distance. Time to evacuate before the Zarvonae invade the spaceliner and find you.
