One of the concepts we deeply want to convey to you is this idea that rather than you being "human" it's more like: "you're driving a human car." Think about it like this. When you watch a car going down the street, you don't really think about how that car is going to treat you based on what kind of car it is. The car is probably going to behave based on who's the driver inside it. It doesn't so much matter what kind of car it is. The human can drive all kinds of cars.

You're less of a "human" and more of a "ghost" that controls a human. The human is only one kind of "car." And in reality, these "ghosts" can control all kinds of things. They could look like humans, or look like grey aliens, or look like robots. The aliens, humans, and robots are still operated by the same "ghosts."

And this is to encourage you to rethink how things operate. Who is really doing what. What is really the difference between you and an "alien" or a "robot."

This is the federation working to wake the planet. It's not going to look like one species, or one type of sentient life. It's going to be an assortment. The idea that one species acts like one nation or one philosophy is a bit like saying one type of car is one nation, one philosophy. As civilization advances, pretty much no one would want to drive just one type of "car" or one type of body. And this is why encountering the same faction will still be diverse. If you try to organize your view of factions based on what type of "car" you're seeing, based on what species or what type of sentience, it's going to make little sense to you. You have to look at the "car" and investige whom is the "driver." You have to look at the body, and investigate . . . whom is the "ghost" in this "shell"?
