"I
wept as I read the most recent transmissions, now several weeks old,
that the Black Talon team had sent us from Atlantis. Peaceful water,
stretching from the sand to infinity. I never thought I would get to
see it one day. In a strange twist of Fate, the greed and arrogance of
the New Earth Commonwealth may well re-ignite the fire that drove us
forward, drove us to soar among the stars. Once this conflict is over
-- and I've come to believe we will win, for the freedom of societies
across the Gate network -- perhaps I will be able to visit those
distant shores myself…""

mission, seeking out allies for the war efforts among long cut-off
colony worlds. Unfortunately, the Terranovans soon realize they are not
the only ones seeking reinforcement among the far-away stars…
