Author: Massimiliano Frezzato
On a planet known as Kolony, a group of settlers built up a highly advanced scientific society, centered on a gigantic outpost called the Tower. There they conducted genetic experiments, ultimately building entire races to serve the needs of their developing civilization. But one of their experiments backfired. The short, aggressive worker-class creatures known as dwarves rebelled and attacked the Tower, striking back against their human masters. The war raged on for eight years. Many of the dwarves died in the grip of an unknown plague, but the humans suffered as well. Contact between the Tower and the small surrounding settlements was cut off completely.
Sixty years later, the Tower is considered a myth by many of Kolony's widely scattered inhabitants, most of whom believe they're the only survivors of the war. One community, the Maser village, believes otherwise, but the explorers they send to search for the Tower never return.
