Ahoy Sky Pirates,

We're back with another update, previously we talked about world of the game in our Lore Overview. This time we're diving into the various factions that currently inhabit the skies.

The Alliance wants to take control of all Sky Oceans. This faction is aware of part of the ancient story but lacks deep knowledge from the Age of Splendor. The leaders of the Alliance are basically aristocrats who want to secure their lifestyle and family heritage for eternity. This makes them easily manipulable, since they don’t really care about history, they only care about getting power and perpetuating themselves with it.

The Galaxians have convinced them that with the Trials, they will easily conquer all Sky Oceans, ruling forever. However, the Galaxian's plans are quite different.

This group is the faction that still holds information from the times before the Big Scattering and the Lost History. It is said that Galaxians are direct descendants of artificially engineered humans, optimized to survive in the Void (space). Even though most people don't believe in this, the fact that Galaxians are incredibly talented pilots helps in surrounding them with a mysterious aura, being feared by pirates and allies alike.

Tempted by the prospect of ruling Sky Oceans with ease, the Alliance has granted the Galaxians with enough resources to look for ancient technology that can help them in dominating all Sky Oceans.

Tempted by the prospect of ruling Sky Oceans with ease, the Alliance has granted the Galaxians with enough resources to find the location of the Nexuses.

The scum of the world. Trash Pirates are bandits who attack, kill and enslave weaker tribes, surviving at the expense of others.

They will be recurrent enemies for the Player and used as tools by the Alliance to control and dominate certain areas of the world. Its leader is Lady Dirthfeather.

That concludes the Factions of Sky Oceans: Wings for Hire, join us next week when we look at some of the crewmates you'll meet during your adventure!
