The Lumen universe spans millennia from the dawn of this cosmic cycle to the evolution of humanity into the Lumen. It encompasses nine galaxies and hosts twenty sapient species, each with unique opposing galactic powers, guilds, and rogue factions, creating a universe of competition. Amongst this story, six main aspects are the focal points: the Cosmic Cycle Genesis and the Unraveling, the Lumen, the Elders (an ancient alien sapient civilization), the Inter-Galactic Community, the Ascensions Systems (Zenith Ascension, Watcher Ascension, And AIT Ascension), and the Immortal Representatives and other anomalies.
