The Spark.

Stanton was supposed to be a beacon of prosperity.
The megacorps advertised “safety,” “security,” and “a future for all.”
But the truth was different on the ground—and far worse in space.

Between 2936 and 2942, an alarming pattern began to emerge across Stanton’s traffic control records:

Distress beacons going unanswered

Miners stranded in lunar canyons with no rescue

Civilians ambushed during cargo runs

Medical ships arriving too late—or not at all

These failures weren’t caused by malice—just absence.
No one felt responsible.

In 2023, a young freelance medic named Servator responded to a distress signal near Yela.
He found two haulers barely alive, huddled in a decompressed cabin, their rescue beacon unanswered for nearly four hours.

Servator saved them.
But the incident haunted him.

“People shouldn’t die because no one bothers to look.”
— Servator, personal log, 2941

This idea—simple, stubborn, and naive—became the seed of something bigger.

II. The First Crew (2023)

In 2023, Servator purchased a battered Cutlass Red with nearly 9,000 hours on its frame.
With another friend—a former security pilot named Twatasaurus — they formed an unofficial rescue team working the outskirts of Crusader.

They answered beacons no one else would:

Low-paying ones

High-risk ones

“Not worth the time” ones

At this point they weren’t an org—just two stubborn people with a questionable ship and an unwavering purpose.

III. The Turning Point (2024)

The event that changed everything happened on Seraph’s Ridge, a remote canyon on Cellin.

A convoy of rookie miners was ambushed by an outlaw gang.
Six beacons went up.
The system’s security forces were tied up near Orison dealing with a corporate strike.

So Servator and Twatasaurus went alone.

The fight was desperate.
The medical ship was nearly lost.
But they managed to evacuate every miner and drive off the The outlaws long enough for the UEE Advocacy to arrive.

Local trade groups called the incident “The Ridge Miracle.”

But for Servator, it was a wake-up call.

If two people could make this much difference, what could three dozen do?
What about three hundred?

IV. The Founding (Mid 2024)

After Seraph’s Ridge, Orin placed a single public announcement on Spectrum:

“We are here to help.
If that speaks to you—join us.”

The response shocked him.

Medics, cargo pilots, security contractors, even out-of-work engineers flooded in.
People wanted purpose.
People wanted to matter.
People wanted to be the ones who answered the call.

In 2024, the organization was officially founded and registered, assisting the UEE.

Their motto became:

“Service Above Self.”

Their symbol, a simple beacon surrounded by protective wings, spread through Stanton.

V. Growth & Trials

Over the next few years, the org grew into a multi-divisional structure:

Medical Corps – rescued thousands

Security Wing – escorted countless traders

Support Division – kept ships flying

Dispatch Command – coordinated operations system-wide

They were praised by civilians and respected by law enforcement, though occasionally mistrusted by security-focused orgs who didn’t understand their neutrality.

During 2025, they expanded into the Pyro and Nyx regions, where the need for emergency assistance was even greater.

But Pyro tested them.

Repeated ambushes.
Lost ships.
Hard lessons.
Stream snipes.

They learned that service without preparation is sacrifice—and they refused to become martyrs.
Training standards were raised.
Escort protocols hardened.
Fleet tactics improved.

By 2026, they had become not only helpers—but professionals.

VI. The Present Day

Today, the organization is recognized across the UEE frontier as one of the most dependable security service rescue and protection forces in the ‘verse.

They are:

The ones traders call when pirates stalk the lanes

The ones miners trust in remote territories

The ones rookies rely on after their first crash

The ones veterans call when things go truly wrong

They have stood against outlaw gangs, navigated storms in hostile terrain, and saved lives in places even the military hesitates to tread.

But through every challenge, their core promise remains unchanged:

“As long as a beacon shines, we will come.”

VII. Legacy in Progress

Their history isn’t defined by battles won or enemies defeated—but by lives touched.

Every rescue is a story.
Every escort is a pledge fulfilled.
Every mission is proof that kindness still holds power in the void.

The organization continues to expand, not for glory, but because the work is never done.
The ‘verse is wide, dangerous, beautiful—and full of people worth saving.

And wherever those people are, they will find help.
They will find hope.
They will find this organization answering the call.
