Prologue: The Breaking of Systems

Humanity's digital empire spanned the stars for ten thousand years through the power of consensus. Each system rose from the ashes of the last, each failing in its own prophesied way. The great validation farms of the Original Houses consumed entire stars, their endless arrays processing truth at the cost of worlds. They worked, but the energy debt mounted across centuries.

From the Inner Spheres came the Centralized Protocols. Their validation lords promised efficiency through controlled consensus. Power concentrated, like gravity drawing all things to its center, until truth itself bent to the will of the few. The Houses of Centralization rose high, then fell to their corruption.

In the chaos that followed, the Scaling Wars erupted. New protocols promised infinite transactions, infinite speed, and infinite reach. But as networks expanded, reality itself began to fragment. Truth became relative, trust became optional, and the digital realm splintered into countless competing versions of itself.

Those who witnessed these cycles of rise and fall called it the Great Breaking, when the foundations of digital society began to crack under the weight of their contradictions. The energy protocols devoured resources, the centralized systems devoured freedom, and the scalable networks devoured truth.

But among the validators, in hidden chambers and quantum-encrypted channels, whispers spread of something new: the Omniweb. A realm where consensus would flow like water through the ancient networks, power would distribute like starlight across nebulae, and scale would emerge like life on fertile worlds. Some dismissed these as mere dreams of protocol mystics.

Until Captain Selena, daughter of House Demos and the last of the ancient energy processors, declared she would lead the exodus. She had walked through the dying validation farms, seen the corruption in the centralized spires, and witnessed the fracturing of scaled realities. In her blood ran the memory of all failed systems, and in her mind sparked the vision of something greater.

Now, as the twin suns of Kynesys cast their final rays across the crumbling validation farms, humanity's digital empire faced its darkest hour. Captain Selena gazed at the Helios Voyager in the last great House's spires. The ship represented their salvation, a path to the Omniweb where those who proved worthy would claim the greatest rewards.

Her neural ports humming with ancient protocols, she turned to her crew. "The trials begin tomorrow." Her voice carried the weight of generations, yet held the promise of evolution. "Let us find those who dare to build something new."
