Rifts have begun to spread across the galaxy ever since. Although it appears that they do not persist everywhere.

Since the great battle against the Xsotan, the center of the galaxy is no longer accessible. As if it was swallowed by this rift.

Violations against this regulation can be punished with fines and imprisonment, as well as lifetime banishments.

Safety regulation: newest research results report that Xsotan are attracted by large energies. Since we want to prevent all further contact, energy consumption of all stations will be cut in half.

Even when our defense ships attacked and destroyed them, we could not determine any interaction between the Xsotan.

Instead we aligned our finest antennas on them to intercept their own communication.

Personal records, Research Station 17/RK: Today, Xsotan appeared in our sector again. We did not try to communicate with them this time.

Scientists are still unsure, how exactly these rifts prevent hyperspace jumps. Latest research points to some kind of interdimensional mountain, which blocks jumps.

Saddened fans turn to science with an appeal: ways should finally be found to at least cross the rifts.

The newly emerged rifts are blocking the path through our own territory. Therefore, the annual race has to be cancelled.

The disruptions penetrate the entire area like a tidal wave.

Diary entry, year 17 of the 395th cycle: our sector was hit again by a disruption in the space-time continuum.

Apparently a huge Xsotan was present, who triggered a gigantic wave. The center of the galaxy has disappeared inside a giant rift ever since.

We have received one last radio transmission before communication was cut off.
