In the shadowed depths of the Amobeus Nebula lies the secluded constellation of stars and worlds known as the Beta Gamma System. To those who have claimed the Space, it is called the Zebarema. A compact assembly of planets and dark stars, utterly one of a kind in the entire cosmos, held together by a web of Plasmic Energy that stretches across every world in the system. Each planet is formed from Anti-element Cybertron, a substance found nowhere else in the universe. Its rarity has driven countless civilizations to exhaust their resources in a desperate attempt to detach one of the smaller outer planets from the cluster, in a hopeless effort to claim the unimaginable riches it would yield once freed from its Anti-elemental cradle. For when Cybertron is released from the Antiplasmic Lattice and exposed to normal space, it hardens into Cybernite—the toughest material known to exist, impervious to all heat and energy. This allows its possessors to extract the purest form of energy ever discovered, the very essence of the stars. Whoever controls the Zebarema controls the Galaxy. But the Beta Gamma system "Zebarema" fiercely guards its Cybernite Crystals, exerting an almost unbreakable magnetronic force on all matter attempting to flee its protective field. Thus was born the ambitious project of building a massive vessel to carry the precious cargo, the Crystal Ship. Countless years and lives have been invested in this grand spacefaring leviathan, and the moment of its purpose is drawing near—for only the unparalleled power of such a ship can withstand the magnetronic grip the system exerts on any departing object. Due to its colossal size, the ship has been built in sections, already dispatched to the Zebarema System. These propulsion modules are of no use elsewhere in the Galaxy, designed exclusively as escape engines and auxiliary units that function under the peculiar physical laws unique to the Beta Gamma System.
