On the Second to the Last day, Word of Blake takes the stage.
They mention that more than 100 years ago, a prophecy was made by ComStar about how it would regain it’s power, and usher in peace into the Inner Sphere. It discussed three transfers of power. Word of Blake has been divided by a variety of branches ever since it formed, but in the 3040s, a leader in ComStar received visions that interpreted this prophecy as three transfers of power. All three were listed in detail. The first two happened in the 3050s. But the final transfer seemed highly unlikely, and few believed this Master.
The final transfer of power was the reformation of the Star League, and the introduction of all of ComStar into it.
After the Word of Blake splintered from ComStar, how could all of it be integrated in a fictional Star League that could never be?
And then it was. And the third transfer of power was within reach!
And now the visions have completed, and the Word of Blake has rejoined the Star League, along with the original ComStar.
The third transfer has happened.
As an introduction into the new era of peace and prosperity, the Word of Blake has gifts for every member of the Star League council (Except for the Outworlds Alliance, they’ll get something for them). In every case it is something appropriate for them.
For example:
Free Worlds League – “To a nation forever proud of its freedoms, and independence from technology, we give you even greater medicine to naturally heal.” Gained lost medical technology that makes it even less likely that replacement limbs or other artificial parts will be needed for people who have been injured or sick.
Lyran Alliance – “To a nation forever proud of its industry and defiance, we give you a piece of your past, and one of the greatest WarShips ever created!” A lost Tharkad WarShip, once a banner WarShip of the might and majesty of the Lyran state from the StarLeague era is found, repaired, and brought back to the Lyran state.
Celestial Coalition – “To a nation forever searching and questing for more, we give you one of our own planets, one of the Hidden Five.” A hidden, industrialized world of Taussen, hidden in our borders, once called Versailles, was thought destroyed in the Amaris Wars (but wasn’t really) and has an operational BMech factory that has supplied ComStar and the Word for centuries. We have now gained it.
And so on and so forth, each gift reflecting the unique nature of the people it is for.
