Soren Scenario for Hyperion This is a savegame scenario, designed specifically for the Hyperion patch V1.375 and EFS V1.4. Simply extract the file SOREN.SAV to your EFS save game directory (EFS\SAV) and ensure that you have the latest version of the Hyperion patch installed. The lasted version of the Hyperion patch may be found at the following URL: http://www.crosswinds.net/~mc0271/hyperion/downloads.html This scenario has been designed to be very difficult. There are no modifications to the Hyperion patch, so the difficulty has been entirely embedded in the design of this scenario. ************************************************************** Epilogue The House of Li Halan has undergone years of corruption and finds itself on the brink of extinction. Soren, a young and noble man, finds himself at the helm of a House spread throughtout the known jump worlds and thrown into chaos. Li Halan Worlds: Cerebus - considered the homeworld of the Li Halan, it is mired in rebellion. The Lab and Starport were overrun with superior rebel forces just last week and rumors of more widespread planetary rebellion are rampant. Allegations of Li Halan Nobles collaborating with Warlocks years ago forced the Church to station a hardened garrison close to the Palace. The League have an Agora bustling with activity a short distance from the Palace. Vril-Ya - due to hardship, the Li Halan settled on this world decades ago. However, as the populace spreadout, they uncovered remnants of a Vau presence that have gripped the people in fear of being discovered by the Vau. Now that a jump gate has been discovered to a new world, many fear that it indeed leads to the Vau homeworld and a confrontation between Li Halan and the Vau may be imminent. Varkal - years ago the Symbiots were eradicated from this world by the joint efforts of the Church, Stigmata Garrison, and Li Halan. This planet has since become the primary mining resource of the Li Halan empire. Recently, however, jumpgates were found leading to the worlds of Tedar-Tarek and Ildasta. Scouts sent to these worlds have not returned causing fear to spread throughout the planet as to what could be on the other side. Absolution - another planet liberated from the Symbiots, this lush world has plenty of natural resources and produces a steady supply of both food and minerals to the rest of the Li Halan worlds. Even with no word from scouts sent into the unexplored space of Tedar-Tarek and Ildasta, the citizenry is quite upbeat about the prospects these new worlds may bring. Byzantium Secundus - Li Halan once had a mighty hand in the affairs of Byzantium Secundus, but the fall of the House of Li Halan has met with a steady decline of its presence here. Only a few structures have been saved from the decay of the Li Halan empire, and the Nobility have been absent for at least a decade. ************************************************************** Thanks for downloading the Soren Scenario for the Hyperion patch!
