The history of the Kushan people begins on the barren desert planet of Kharak, where they fought over resources for thousands of years. Life in Kharak was harsh, but everything changed when Rachel S’jet made a groundbreaking discovery. Deep beneath the unforgiving sands, she unearthed an ancient technology: the hyperspace core. This powerful artifact provided not only the means for space travel but also a map that guided the Kushans to their true home, Hiigara.
The Unfolding of a New Galactic Era
After the Kushan’s victory, peace was short-lived. Karen discovered two more hyperspace cores—one from the ancient Bentusi race and another after defeating the ruthless Vaygr. With these cores, she unlocked a vast hyperspace gate network, allowing interstellar travel and bringing unprecedented unity and prosperity to the galaxy.
However, peace gave way to new challenges. A dangerous anomaly on the galaxy’s outer rim posed a threat, consuming ships and sealing gateways. Karen S’jet, aboard a new mothership, sought to confront this mysterious force, but she vanished without a trace. Twenty years later, the search continues, passing on the burden to her protege, Imogen S’jet.
Conclusion: A Legacy of Exploration and Conflict
The saga of the Kushan is one of resilience, unity, and discovery. Their journey from the deserts of Kharak to the stars exemplifies the unyielding spirit of a people determined to survive and reclaim their place in the universe. While the future remains uncertain, the legacy of Karen and Rachel S’jet lives on, guiding the next generation into the unknown.
