Taleweaver!

In the light of the moment I've decided to write a short science fiction story about my favorite college!


Our story takes place many years in the future in the year 201,000 in the distant star-nexus of Philo. Deep in the black void of space near a star system known only as "The Illadelph" three factions battle for control of Philo as enemies clash and alliances are formed amongst the stars.






Orienta-Un:
The nation in which our story is centered. Though now the most powerful of the colonies in The Illadelph, they hold their own and seek above all the cease violence and bring negotiations to the table, stopping the Orien-Framanian War.


Vlad Diback: The president of Orienta-Un and the main character of out story. he is attempting to stop tensions between the Framanian Baronies while assisting the Palmonians in their mission in the system.
Wico-Sama: An aged practitioner of arcane studies, he is the guru of our story and the high councellor of the Orienta-Un council. Though wise beyond measure, many of his decisions are frowned upon by the less experienced.
Gin'Dujis: A techno-scribe who is the head of the Orientan holo library. She serves to proliferate data throughout Orientan colonies and strives for excellence and purity in knowledge.
Criep: An aged nubian descendant from the Swernet Ghothut colony, his role in our tale can be summed with the phrase "Unremembered history repeats itself."


Palmo-Theologicon:
A collection of ex-monks with multi-dimensional diversity that express deep holistic understanding. They are long-standing allies of the Orientians and are seen as a peaceful people though their political power in the system is small. Lead by Walowan Cha-Sthim, the Palmonians seek to spread their beliefs throughout the system and remain a peaceful and politically neutral organization.


Framanian Baronies:
A band in interstellar mercenaries who have recently settled into The Illadelph. These tyrants coax innocent settlers of the fringe worlds into joining their glorious society, known only as "The Establishment" where their bodies are subjected to addicting chemicals, thus fueling a need to serve and get their fix. Lead by Overlord Joa'Fn, the Framians are a loosely knit series of baronies at their heart, leading out the seas of chemically addicted mind-slaves to conquer the galaxy.
