Available only with the First Contact DLC enabled. |
Once the Mid-Game year has been reached empires with the 
Fear of the Dark origin will be given a unique event chain. The event chain is completely linear, each event leading only to the next until the event chain is over.
Confirmation Requested
Our partner planet has requested that we confirm some of their findings. Once again, they claim to have evidence that The Divider was destroyed by a malicious foreign entity. This has become tiresome; every few years it seems they discover some new "proof".

Horrific Proof
[pre-FTL planet name] were right!
The attack we suffered all those years ago was perpetrated by a malicious entity capable of launching massive tungsten projectiles. Only the unique gravitational features of our home system allowed us to survive. By analyzing the data from that fateful night and cross-referencing it with these new findings, it was possible for us to triangulate the source of the asteroid-sized tungsten round.
It originated from an incredibly mineral-rich (yet otherwise unremarkable) system we have had in our logs for decades.

Desolate
The system of our old aggressors is barren. While it isn't unusual for an asteroid belt to be mineral-poor, this one has been stripped bare. Not only that, but where there should be minor planetoids rich in rare metals, we have found only dust. However the species inhabiting this system managed to gain the tungsten necessary to construct their bullets, they no longer have the resources to do so now. They don't even seem to be capable of leaving their planet.
While they have done their best to remain hidden, preventing all radio signals and even limiting the use of artificial lights, we have detected life on the system's lone habitable planet.

The Hunters
Observing the Fevorians has been a revelatory experience. In fact, their ideology is remarkably similar to that which produced the split in our own species. However, rather than choosing isolation, the Fevorians opted for a strategy of pre-emptive strikes against any life signs they could detect. Once they ran out of heavy metals, the aliens returned to their world, scraping whatever bare subsistence they could from their now barren home. While the leadership of our partner planet is urging us to adopt the same tactics as the Fevorians, how best to deal with our would-be exterminators is no easy question.

Embracing the Dark
Destroying the Fevorians was... easy? One fewer hunter, threatening our existence. We have not felt this in sync with our partner world for a long time. Perhaps they were right. There are only two types of life out here: the silent and the dead.
