Chapter One: Genetic
Many things united the people of the Empire; language, cult, custom.
Fear and hope were among the most powerful forces establishing both mutuality
and commonality throughout the worlds.
Nevertheless, the children of the Ancients evolved in different ways,
on their disparate worlds, with different stars to look upon, different fates
to contemplate.
Differences were primary.

Chapter Two: Class
Everyone dreamed of advancing to the next level, it was
the constant preoccupation of the masses, to advance, either in this life or
the next.
Complacency was abhorrent.
They loathed their own place, but when threatened their
class united them.
They were connected by clan, village, planet, by class,
and rank, by fear and loathing.

Chapter
Three: Planetary
There were a million worlds in the galactic Empire. Planets strung
like gems among the stars, each of them was the locus of identity for the
ordinary citizen.
Every person was marked by the world they lived on, genetically aligned
to its exigencies. Their worlds marked them in ways that were both obvious
and hidden.

Chapter Four: Linguistic
The Imperial schools attempted to normalize linguistics.
It was a mission that never ended, something that they failed at from
generation to generation.
Variation persisted, colloquial patterns bonded people to one another,
an unconscious manifestation of shared experience.
Language patterns were buried in the ganglia of the central nervous
system, they were a genetic endowment.

Chapter Five: Desire
People found one another through the things they desired most; bonding
with one another through their joy, and pain.
Shared experience were the strongest ties, and because of this, people
unconsciously sabotaged themselves, undercut their hopes for advancement, so
as to remain in proximity to those they loved.
Through this medium, incredible tragedies would unfold.

Chapter Six: Fear
Fear makes the life and behaviors of the citizenry more predictable
than any other factor.
Not even death could overcome the
power of fear.
Fear poisoned the body, shaping its consciousness in the
electromagnetic field.
Fear was the most powerful emotion, stronger than hope, than desire,
than hate.
Fear catalyzed all of the lesser emotions.

Chapter Seven: Love
Love is stronger than fear, stronger than any power.
The Imperial cult worked tirelessly to frustrate the reality of love
among each of the million worlds that constituted the galactic civilization.
Love is a feeling, like fear, and joy, but love is more, it is a
choice, it is a fundamental option.
Love is freedom.
