"I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, 
in secret, between the shadow and the soul." 
— Pablo Neruda

The gods of darkness and the earth wish to maintain control on creation, but the host of light stand in their way. 

This colony base with its military mission teeters on the edge of disaster.

Quest: The Gods

A generational colony ship has been sent to do an end run around the inhabited worlds of a species the humans of Earth have declared war upon. They are tasked with establishing a colony as a beachhead to launch attacks on the enemy flank. An engineering team has been sent in a smaller ship, the Lightbearer-Alpha just ahead of the colony ship to establish the infrastructure for the landing.
