Taran the Unequaled. the equivalent of Sinbad the Sailor and Jason and the Argonauts. He had supposedly sailed from Alar Prime using a ship powered by Solar winds having adventures, falling through wormholes, stealing treasures, and spending them, rescuing maidens in distress, and finding the Archive.
The story went that Taran’s ship had crash landed on a planet that was mostly water with a yellow star. He had seen a comet and decided to chase it, after following it out of the system he was pulled into the gravitational field of the Archive and again crash landed on it.
