This makes space travel to distant systems or galaxies practical, but conventional methods are still required to move an object away from a gravity well before the over-c drive can be used. As a result, probes are sent to distant systems, searching planets suitable for expeditions.

Note: Many events regarding the Toronto are also said to happen in 2227, but it is considered to be a mistake, they happen in 2230.

• Back on the Island of Peace, the Dji Cantos find a way to destroy the Toronto – the Seed.
• The party obtains the Metalmagic Knowledge from Umajo-Kenta and the High Knowledge from the Kenget Kamulos, two necessary parts to create the Seed. Meanwhile, Joe records the world of Albion on his camera.
