This is it. There's nothing more to be said, there's nothing more to be done. It all comes down to the next few minutes, and a small gathering of allies. Fate will be tested, and legends will be born, or die in the cold ether of the universe. This, is the final episode of Sea of Stars.

Heroes found, are rarely allowed a quiet life. As I write the final line, I am sad to see it end, but proud. So proud of the cast, of the work we've all done, and proud to have been a part of it. Thank you, one and all. -Dev |

This is it, night has fallen. The Comet Emperor begins his final assault on Earth, his goal not to re-conquer it, or to enslave her people... but to obliterate humanity from the cosmos. Driven mad by grief, Jahmorta cannot rest until those who took his son, his beloved Zordar, are expunged from the universe. Earth's allies stand united, but they look upon Jahmorta's armada and see their doom upon them. Despite it all they cling to one, slim hope. After all, it's always darkest before... -Dev CREW CAST Narrator: Mark “The ENCaffinated ONE” Kilfoil MUSIC: SOUND EFFECTS: ((DISCLAIMER: Sea of Stars is a non-profit fan production, produced for the enjoyment of the fans.

There are things we would never do, or so we tell ourselves. Lines we'd never even approach, much less cross. But life isn't fair, and people aren't made of granite. We all have our faults we all have our breaking points, and we all have our price. It's easy to think that those around us are, as they seem. It's comfortable to assume they'll never change. The wolf doesn't need sheep's clothing, if you think it's a loyal dog. -Dev CREW CAST Narrator: Mark “The ENCaffinated ONE” Kilfoil MUSIC: SOUND EFFECTS: ((DISCLAIMER: Sea of Stars is a non-profit fan production, produced for the enjoyment of the fans.

Unfortunately, we're going to have to delay epsiode ten of Sea of Stars one week to allow Libsyn to free up some room in the feed. After that however, there should be no further delays. FMP is sorry for any inconvience. Category:Sea of Stars

Way back when I first sat down to write Sea of Stars about five years ago, it was supposed to run an even ten episodes. As I got into it, however, I realized that there was almost no focus on the Comet Empire, aside from a few commander characters we see here and there. Also, it would probably damage the pacing too severely if I went back and added in scenes about the actual Imperial family, aside form their brief introduction in episodes five and six. Further, I didn't think I could keep the immediacy of the threat to earth going for that long. The Scourge fleet had to show up about when it did. The result, was that ten episodes became two six-episode seasons. I think it worked rather well. The story flows, the characters get more time to reveal complexity... and I can change the tone a bit between the two seasons without sacrificing the immediacy I fought so hard for. For fans of Star Blazers/Yamato, we get to meet an old friend in Emperor Desslok, and Harlock FINALLY strolls aboard the Argo. We also get to meet the final member of the Imperial family, Prince Darcal (aside form his brief appearance back in the Invasion! special). A new season, a new alliance... and a new menace. The road gets bumpier. -Dev CREW CAST MUSIC: SOUND EFFECTS: ((DISCLAIMER: Sea of Stars is a non-profit fan production, produced for the enjoyment of the fans.

As I neared the end of writing season two, it became more and more obvious that we were going to need something... special. The first season focused primarily on events from the point of view of the Argo's crew, but we never really explained where the original Star Force got off too. Furthermore, we hadn't really had much time to flesh out the Comet Empire as a people. Sure, we could have explained such things through season two (no spoilers here, don't worry), but it felt like a missed opportunity.

“Firestorm”
This is it. Everything rides on this fight. Either the Argo defeats the Scourge Fleet, or it doesn't and humanity dies. I really don't have anything to add to that. Let's just say it's not a forgone conclusion that the good guys win... -Dev
