Overview

A restoration power claiming stewardship through ancestry, recovered infrastructure and control of relay corridors.

Full account

The reclaimed world of Hiigara anchors a civilization shaped by exile and return. Inheritance and old gate-right support its claim to legitimate authority.

Logistics and gate infrastructure are civilizational assets. Recovering and maintaining them strengthens both military reach and political legitimacy.

The illustrated fleet separates sensing and escort, line command, small-craft deployment and repair. Marines and relay specialists support the same struggle to hold usable infrastructure.
