Story

Track of the Ancients

The Track of the Ancients is an over-10000-year-old large-scale parkous game which played a large role in the Ancients' society. It is a self-sufficient system in which a contestant selects one of 5 Virtues to collect 4 distinct Elements which will then be used to solve challenges of rising difficulty.
At the first human colonists were ignorant towards the track when exploiting the planet for resources. Over time, though, it became apparent that it has some kind of mind or programming that uses its capabilities to defend against perceived intruders. To prevent further conflict with native creatures and the land itself, Operation Trackwalker was conceived.
