TRANSMITTING FROM STATION 2E
THIS IS THE SIGNAL.
We are not a government.
We are not a corporation.
We are not a military authority.
We are witnesses.
In 2546, as Commander Ivar Messer carried the captured Tevarin leader before the halls of power and the old government transformed into the United Empire of Earth, one voice chose a different path. Lenore issued an emergency call across the stars, seeking those who believed that truth should belong to everyone.
They answered.
Journalists. Activists. Engineers. Pilots. Dreamers.
Together they formed the Cortex Relay.
For centuries, Station 2E carried information where others carried propaganda. During wars, corruption scandals, corporate cover-ups, cyberattacks, and political upheaval, the Relay endured. When powerful interests attempted to silence us, we broadcast louder. When secrets threatened the public, we exposed them. When whistleblowers needed refuge, we opened our channels.
In 2830, our crew uncovered an artifact unlike any known technology. Its secrets expanded the reach of our network and strengthened our mission. By 2895, Station 2E had become a beacon for innovators, free thinkers, and those who believed information should flow freely across the Verse.
Today, in 2947, that mission continues.
We relay without favor.
We report without fear.
We broadcast without permission.
From the edge of civilization to the busiest trade lanes, our signal remains open.
If you can hear this transmission, you are part of the network.
Transmitting from Station 2E.
This is the Signal.
