Five hundred years have passed.
Following the sages and great sages (Ian and Aldo's titles in later generations, similar to Zhou and Confucius), one philosopher king and sage after another led the Humans forward, and the technology of the Sacred Terra Federation developed in a slow but stable trend.
The technology carried within Terra is truly vast and powerful; even a slightly faster step can induce unimaginable social upheaval and conflict. Therefore, rather than war and rapid development, the Federation prefers peace and stable slow progress.
During this time, a major event occurred.
In the year 575 of the Federal Calendar, the [Cradle opened].
In the five hundred and eightieth year after the Pioneer Sage Ian Silverpeak left Terra, Humans finally broke out of the Cradle and reached the vast universe beyond.
