External Story Arcs (part 3)


As characters in Solar Echoes progress through several missions, news reports about events in other parts of the universe update over time. For example, the initially benign demonstration on the planet Sofronio--similar to the Occupy Wall Street movement--begins to degenerate: “Growing protests on Sofronio today have erupted into rioting in some regions of the colony. Protestors are calling for the complete absolution of the demarchy, accusing the current administration of being influenced by special interest groups. Merchants on Sofronio have been suffering huge losses, as tourism to Sofronio's beautiful forests and shores has stopped completely. Efforts are being made to meet the demands of the protesters in hopes that the economy can begin to recover from the riots. Regional liaisons are meeting to discuss the resignation of current leaders within the administration.”
