The Kongress
Its members are not elected. They are found, by what their lives have written.
To live, the Aquamorphists teach, is to write upon the soul: the fluid one dimension beyond the water of every living body. A galaxy-wide array of antennae reads that writing and seats the lives that hold the most care, knowledge and cooperation. Their mandate is energy: who draws on which star, and at what cost. Their real task is harder. They decide what billions of lives will carry across the boundary.
Observation
Two Galaxies, One Convergence
The Milky Way and Andromeda are falling into each other. Stars will scatter, worlds will freeze, and every vessel of water that holds a life will fail. The Kongress breaks in two. Most of its members stay and die with the galaxy, and their souls are released into the collective. The rest follow voices from beyond the boundary into a capsule that promises a way out. On the other side, something has been waiting for minds like theirs.
Mechanism
Draw on the Dying Stars
Move your fleet across an 18×18 procedurally generated galaxy, raise Dyson spheres around its stars, and turn their light into energy: the power behind every ship you move, every threat you answer and every life you protect. The Aquamorphists teach that stars are also where released souls converge. Light is finite here. Every unit you spend is spent on someone.
Consequence
Nothing You Play Is Erased
Play Agenda cards to raise your own civilizations, or Chaos cards to bring storms down on your rivals, at a cost in dharma. Answer the Threats and seize the Opportunities each turn brings. In this galaxy, every experience you cause, kind or cruel, is written into the souls of the lives it touches. The body is temporary. The record is not.
