Copied from the Manual ... word for word. sorry i do not know who the original author was.
The Story
Life’s eternal struggle raged across thousands of different worlds as race after race fights for survival. For those that exist on this plane, the last unanswerable question becomes, “What will happen after death?” Countless deities are worshiped in the hope that the afterlife will be a far kinder place then the one they leave.
Nature is used to describe the endless struggle that rage across the universe where only the strong survive. Time after time the defenseless suffer while the strong and ruthless control the fate of the weak. Each being lives and dies, each finding their place and each wondering what will happen when their candle burns out. When it finally happens, very few find that they were correct.
The light at the end of the tunnel leads to a surreal world where the entities gain new bodies, sometimes of races completely unfamiliar to them. With no recognizable guides, each person must find their way again. Yet in this new world they are given a fresh start. The bodies they gain are fully developed and more capable then those they had in their previous life. The weak in body have become strong while those of lesser mind are now capable of advanced thought. Everyone has the same potential in this constantly changing world and anything that is possible can happen when the beings find themselves able to create whatever their dreams desire in life. Speech is no hindrance as universal language has been given to everyone and death simply means a rebirth to this plane.
The new arrivals find the world beautiful in its chaos, and the constantly changing environment lends to endless diversity. Entire areas appear and vanish in a matter of hours and environments once thought to be constant rearrange themselves. As a result no one knows the extent of their new home. New arrivals find themselves uncertain of where they are and why they were sent there. For some, this uncertainty becomes a need for purpose and meaning, which leads inevitably to quests for answers. Others simply revel in the hedonistic pleasures once denied them.
And now a new awareness dawns in the minds of the inhabitants of this mysterious new world. They begin to realize that the unyielding barriers of space and time are strangely different here. Even as they strive to understand the different technologies and abilities they each posses, the suspicion grows that they may not all be from the same universe, the same dimension… even the same existence. What manner of planet can there be which draws life force from such distant and seemingly unrelated realities? And is it possible to harness its power for those who want to go back? The world turns silently, holding its secrets far out of the reach of those who search for answers.
Yet such secrets will not remain hidden forever. Even now the bold are seeking out the high places and dark depths never before looked upon by any who have walked this planet. They begin to discover portals that displace matter and spirit through space and even through time. The suspicion grows that this realm is the hub from which all realities and all times can be accessed – if only the key can be discovered.
Thus desire seeps into all creatures inhabiting planet IIA. Humans long to return to their home world. Bloblics quarrel over the territorial rights to theirs. And the contemplative Amphibians ponder whether their world might best be left in peace. But all feel a persistent unrest in the realization that this new home is but a starting point. This is a new beginning where those with vision can stretch out their minds and shape their destiny in the greatest existence of all.
Keep in mind this is a COPY of the original story ..... new stories can and will always be told .... enjoy
