In the year 3801 AEM, the cosmos held its breath as Marcus Blue ascended to the throne—the first human emperor of Babylon. But this tale transcends mere lineage; it’s an incredible symphony of love, ambition, and living ships.
Marcus and Ghost: A Union Beyond Worlds IN 3701 AEM Marcus Blue, flesh and bone, wed Ghost Blue—an organic ghost. Together, they forged House Blue, a group of small human power groups that would grow to become the imperial family. Their union defied physics: human and organic ghost entwined. Their love birthed an empire.
Beyond Babylon’s Veil: Marcus I’s Ambition Under Marcus I’s rule, humanity’s reach stretched beyond Babylon’s orbit. Moons bowed, and worlds trembled. The Den’Shar empire had been reduced to local lords, each ruling a planet or a string of moons, but now they retreated as House Blue’s CDNA ships pushed the old world out of their system.
Historic Conquests: Stars Beckon No ship had left Babylon’s orbit in over 500 years—until House Blue. Their vessels, colossal and pulsing, eclipsed the Den’Shar relics. Twice the size, twice the audacity. Yet, these living ships needed air to survive, so their star jumps, and House Blue’s range, were limited by how long the ships could hold their breath.
Box Breathing: House Blue’s Signature Picture it: a House Blue cruiser descends, its hull alive. In atmosphere, it inhales—a rhythmic pulse. Box breathing, they call it. A secret handshake with gravity. A reminder that even in the void, life persists.
