The following text appears below a painting at the foot of the western spiral staircase at the base of the Helix Halls, Achelia's new government building.
Artist: Ruth Moutinho Date: 1284 GC
Description: Depicted here is Micah Illumine, a native to Achelia and an instrumental member of the CHRONOS project. Through his joint efforts with Trewe Flotte, Achelia was saved from its destruction in several alternate timelines, and was instead transformed into the beautiful haven it is today. The artist claimed to have met with Illumine shortly before painting this picture, and said that she was struck by the boundless energy and optimism with which he conducted himself at all times. Micah Illumine has since left Achelia to work on projects of his own, but the positive mark he left upon our planet will never be forgotten.
Wherever there are heroes, there are those working behind the scenes to ensure that everything goes smoothly; setting up communications networks, directing traffic, and finding intel on villainous ongoings. Recently, these heroes in their own right have gained more and more recognition, and now the Saviours of the Systems brings you Issue 1 of NOVA! Led by the dashing and valiant Crimson Thorn, this team of do-gooders enacts hacking operations across the Seven Systems to thwart the bad guys' plans, and ensure that teams like the Hell's Bells and Janus can work safely. They are:
The Crimson Thorn, action figures in store today! (Kybele and adjacent territories only, terms and conditions apply)
eMIL, the foul-mouthed, technologically enhanced space ace!
General Sanders, the stoic backbone of the crew!
Kee-Ree, the team's loose cannon weapons specialist!
And, new with this series, the Crimson Thorn's mysterious friend, with a flame-grilled past…
IGNITION!
'What's up everybody? It's ScarletSpine57, a.k.a. Micah Illumine, here with Episode 4 of our Let's Play of Illumination Games' new K-RPG, 'Shadow Rebellion'! You know I loved their last game, 'Aqua Sigil', so I'm pretty sure we're going to enjoy this one. When we last left off, we were just about to fight the evil Clay King and his henchman, Onemaia. Now, you all know me - I can break systems just as easily as I can break them, soooooo… Damn, I guess the devs planned for that one. OK, well an any% speedrun's off the table for today, I guess - but I gotta say, Illumination Studios know how to make a good game! I honestly wouldn't have done anything different if I'd designed this myself! Make sure to leave a like on the video if you think we should have Kee-Ree join our team, or comment if you'd prefer us to take General Sanders instead. And, as always, if you liked the content, make sure to hit subscribe - who knows, we may even get to do a video with one of the devs at some point!'
