The atmosphere in the conference had changed.
After numerous days of lobbying, knowledge exchange and debates about new discoveries, the conference attendees no longer possessed the same mindsets as before.
All of the sessions on topics as varied as E energy manipulation to the estimated warmaking potential of the native alien races had fully made everyone aware of what it meant to enter the Age of Dawn.
Red humanity was not in a good position.
That became clear enough to anyone who attended at least one session centered around aliens.
Too few people had grown up in a time where war against rival alien civilizations had been a major concern.
Aside from a few old fossils such as the Xenotechnician, most people grew up in the heyday of the Age of Mechs. Internal competition against rival human states and organizations dominated everyone's consciousness.
