Triumphant Empire

One hundred years of war are finally coming to a close. The conquest driven Ordeon Empire has pushed the freedom loving Vehlan Union forces into a single bunker on their homeworld of Vehla. Even after a year of fighting, the valiant Union soldiers continue to defend this one remaining base against the relentless imperial attacks. Defeat is inevitable, yet still they struggle, hoping against hope for some miracle to save them and their nation. The miracle does not come and the empire finally takes the base in one last attack. However, hope endures, as at least two-thousand soldiers are able to escape the base and the planet before the imperial forces are able to stop them. With everything they had sworn to defend either destroyed or under imperial control, these remaining union soldiers are now faced with a choice. Will they continue to fight, or will they lose faith entirely and go their own ways. Of course they inevitably remember that freedom is always something worth fighting for, no matter the cost. Even if they have to work with pirates, and be branded criminals themselves, they will continue to fight for as long as it is necessary, or until they are unable to fight any longer. One side believes it is the only hope for a bright, prosperous future for humanity. The other believes that each individual should be free to choose his or her own future. Which will reign victorious?
