Yay ! Welcome back Grand ^ ^ I've been missing these amazing technological settings you're so good at, and Emperor Hargrave has too much potential to be left unexplored.

I find it eerily fascinating how his empire combines legitimate utopia (unshakable stability, boundless prosperity, great personal freedom) and suffocating totalitarism (in which mere discontentement is a thought crime worth the death penalty, or something even worse).

In a way, it's like the Hargravian Empire is both Heaven and Hell at the same time.
