Lore by AfWngs, AGT co-founder
The iVc Project was a pseudo civilization. It worked together with its AAAM Expeditionary branch charting space. Several iVc travellers grew weary of the nomadic life, and made a trip to the Pilgrim Star. While wandering with minimal resources, afWngs sat and watched the Pilgrim Star move across the sky. He went on a sabbatical and created the iVc Navigator's Guide. While working on it, he had an epiphany. He no longer wanted to roam from the stars; he wanted to document the inner workings of the universe. The leaders of the iVc were devastated. afWngs' own son, acting President, argued against his father, refusing to leave the iVc. Several other Travellers also shared afWngs vision - a rift shuttered through the ranks.
Fearing that more members would jump ship, the iVc agreed to release afWngs from his contract on the condition that he share his findings, and occasionally work on contract for the iVc.
An independent explorer for the first time, afWngs surfed the Black Hole Ring until finding a beautiful planet in the Keleibniug Mass. He opened a trading post with the help of a local Gek and prospered in his new life. afWngs was refueling a starship when he noticed the iVc logo on the side of a Hauler. His son climbed out of the cockpit and smiled at the sight of his father. The two men shared a laugh and swapped stories of their misadventures. One would never guess that over ten years had passed since they last spoke. Needless to say, the rift had been mended.
