Presently we will be following Sister Miriam as she guides her chosen religious nuts through a Transcend level journey on a standard sized planet with an average 90 million miles orbit, 30-50% water, average erosive forces, average cloud cover, and abundant native life. Following this selection we get to see a picture of the game rules and the seven factions.

After landing and establishing Great Conclave, Miriam decides to send a patrol of fans to the west and discovers nutrient resources and a Unity Rover. She also decides to have the colony pod of converts board the unity foil and directs it towards a water logged unity pod. Inside, she discovers the technology "Industrial Base". Much to Miriam's annoyance, she hears Morgan's voice over her intercomm system talking about how they should consume resources.

The following year, Miriam decides to order the unity foil towards another unity pod and discovers Information Networks (Miriam has now discovered how to manafacture computers  :o). In 2104, Miriam sends her nutty scout patrol towards the unity pod located to the Northeast of Great Conclave. Inside they discover nutrient resources. She also has the scout patrol hurried at the Great Conclave. The next year, Miriam orders the unity rover to move towards the south-east unity pod. Inside they discover strange plants that can be used for additional food. Miriam thinks it must be a gift from god.

In 2106, the colony pod disembarks on a land mass near a crater. The next year Miriam's converts construct the Conclave's first new base: The Lord's Truth. This makes Miriam almost giddy with excitement. It could also simply be too much exposure to planet's atomsphere, but most of her followers ignore this opnion :). That same year, Miriam's forces encounter a mindworm boil that is promptly crushed.

In 2108, a broadcast is sent out that Zakharov's insidious minions have discovered Secrets of the Human Brain (as if Miriam really needs to know that...). The scout patrol at The Lord's Truth attacks a fungal tower and wins. This prompts Miriam to start humming the Morgan Broadcasting Company tune until she catches herself. In doing so she has sung the theme of a bloated Corporate Executive by the name of CEO Morgan. Meanwhile, in 2109, Miriam has the unity rover and scout patrol continue to explore nearby land. These units also squash another mind worm boil.

In the years 2110 and 2111 Miriam has her units continue to explore. In 2112, a signal is shot across the planet saying Zak's malicious engineers have eradicated Yang's tortured followers. Miriam does not feel to badly about this news except for the fact that Zakharov did the deed and not her. Meanwhile, the scout patrol discovered a pod with not only mineral resources but enough building supplies to get her next colony pod up and running. This makes Miriam feel good on the inside.

In 2113-2116, Miriam continues exploring the map of planet and the colony pod from Great Conclave continues moving south in a Unity Foil. In 2117, the Colony pod disembarks the Unity Foil. Miriam wonders where everybody else is located on planet and starts ruminating about who she might encounter and if they will want to eat her guts...

In 2118, Miriam founded a new base by the name of "The Holy Fire" on the same continent as The Lord's Truth. This prompted another celebration day at the churchs of Miriam. In 2119, exploration of the "promised land" ::) continues. In 2120, The Lord's Truth builds a new colony pod. More exploration of this god-given/forsaken land continues after Miriam notices a mountain suddenly pops up in the distance near The Holy Fire.

In 2123, Miriam finally encounters another faction and it turns out to be Santiago. Santiago at first seems suspicious of Miriam and probably wants to bury her body parts but their conversation goes something like this:

Santiago: Greetings Miriam, I see you managed to survive entry onto this planet in your lousy colony pod.
Miriam: ...
Santiago: I find your silence disturbing and demand you give me 50 energy credits in compensation for the time spent talking to you.
Miriam: *Gives 50 Energy Credits*
Santiago: Accepted
Miriam: Now we should sign a treaty of friendship so that we do not destroy one another.
Santiago: I will agree to this offer only if you give me the data on Information Networks.
Miriam: Fine
Santiago: I do not have all day to talk, Santiago out.
Thoughts of Miriam: God, that went better than I thought it would, especially since Santiago likes to polish and manfacture big military weapons ::). Also, who knew we had so many interests in common...

In 2124-2125, Miriam decides to continue the colonization effort of the mainland. In 2126, a new base called House of Martyrs is founded. In 2127, Conclavist researchers discover Centauri Ecology. This discover causes Miriam to question who or what created this world... and Miriam comes to the conclusion that is was a vengeful god punishing her for sinful actions  ???.

In 2128, exploration of the promised land continues and Miriam orders an update on her current strength relative to the other factions. In 2129, Sister Miriam recieves a commlink hail from crazy Lady Deidre of the Gaians. The conversation goes like:

Deidre: Miriam give me all your researched tech or else I will squash you and Santiago  ;hippy.
Miriam: I refuse such outrageous demands from a woman who has not payed her respects to the good lord, and refuses to use the new religious programs from the Morgan Broadcasting Company that help educate people around Planet about God (;jesus!). Also, the Conclave has not exactly been working with the Spartans...
Deidre:  ;lalala Now you and your religious nutter butters will be crushed along with the military wackos of Santiago. From this day foward, I pronounce vendetta against you.
Miriam: (I certainly hope that  Deidre the  ;hypocrite gets punished by god).

Later, the religious nutter butters crawl out of their simple dwellings and begin chanting  ;worship god.

During 2130 a colony pod is completed at The Holy Fire and begins moving towards the west. In 2131, the colony pod continues moving and our scout patrol discovers a Gaian Alien Artifact. In 2132, the alien artifact is captured. In 2133, the unity foil discovers a pod containing data on Biological Genetics.

In 2134, a vicious mindworm under Deidre's control is exterminated by one of the religiously brave conclavist scout patrols :). Also, a conclavist scout patrol notices a Gaian Spore Launcher in fungus some distance away. Lastly , a new base called The Children of God is founded in 2135. In 2135, the Gaian Spore Launcher attempts to rush towards House of Martyrs, but is stopped by the valiant efforts of the conclavist scout patrol in House of Martyrs.

Nothing of great importance happened during 2136 except that colony pod departed THe Lord's Truth towards the northwest. This continues in 2137 with the colony pod continuing to move northwest. In 2138, Conclavist researchers discover Doctrine: Mobility. This prompts Miriam to start thinking about how important  it is to be mobile as you get older. Along that line of thought, Miriam thinks she might start trying some of the new Morgan Fitness video routines to improve her mobility...

Each individual pipe contains a hot slurry of minerals drawn from Planet's crust and makes a sound like rain falling on a tin roof. When they converge on the trunkline the sound is a terrifying thunder, a thunder of untold wealth, and power.
