Story[ | ]
It has been two years since the end of the Second Gemini War, the situation in the wartorn system is further from resolution than ever. The army of freedom fighters known as the Gemini League is now reduced to a small group, with no power or influence, after losing their leaders, especially Paul Demetrius. Meanwhile, The Empire has used the re-opened Starpoint to occupy the once renegade Gemini Sector - and beyond.
A multitude of Imperial warship fleets and mammoth motherships have crushed every trace of opposition. The situation was looking bleak, when they suddenly halted their armada and re-shifted their focus on fortifying the Starpoint with their staggering numbers. Rumours soon spread that they were afraid of something coming after them through the Gateway, from what was supposed to be the heart of the Empire. What are they running from, that makes even the mighty Empire tremble?
