With societal issues - such as crime, overcrowding, and economic stagnation - mounting throughout the Elysian Celestial Empire, the Patrician of the Elysian Senate needed a quick and easy fix to their problems. Their solution? Dispatch the ECS Panopteles to the Elysian Expansion Star Systems and have it thoroughly chart the expanse's nine unexplored systems in preparation for a major colonization effort. A simple task, sure - but one also fraught with challenges from within and without.

The plot is a “slice of life” plot - heavily inspired by the older Star Trek series - centered around life Elysian Celestial Navy, with a decent amount of exploration and some small-scale combat. It will be starting at the Elysian Naval Arsenal and - barring any plot developments - continue throughout the Expanse's systems.
