Fiction:Motive/Tuuros/Orientation



Welcome to the Tuuros Expeditionary Initiative. Your service record has indicated you for transfer to the outer edges of Our order, so that you may provide an experienced foundation to one of our newest extra-Andromedan holdings. You are one of millions to be selected.

Tuuros Galaxy is fragmented. It is unstable. It is fundamentally lawless and anarchic. In short, it is an affront to Our principles. It is also an opportunity. By the grace of the Monitors, we will succeed.
 * 1) Tuuros is unsettled. Political and economic divisions within Andromeda limit Our expansion there. No such restrictions exist in Tuuros. The first imperative of the Tuuros Expeditionary Initiative to establish a Motive presence within that galaxy.
 * 2) Tuuros is violent. Rule of law is exceptional. Crime and directionless violence is endemic. This barbarity offends the Monitors. The second imperative of the Tuuros Expeditionary Initiative is to bring Tuuros to civilization and Progress.
 * 3) Tuuros is the burial ground of an extinct Ultraterrestrial race, the Zhulultu. The Zhulultu once imposed order upon that galaxy. Its current state is a product of the collapse of this order, and of the function or malfunction of the technology once used to sustain it. This technology still remains. The third imperative of the Tuuros Expeditionary Initiative to acquire, study, and exploit what still survives.
