Description / Specifications
2468AD to approximately 3000AD.
The Sath deliberately removed themselves from interstellar affairs following the humiliating Jacent Incident and the subsequent Battle of Jacent. Both incidents cost them the loss of a significant number of their starfaring spacecraft.
History & Background / Dossier
Following the Jacent Incident the Sath Factions began to squabble and quarrel about their best course of action. Some reactionary elements wanted to launch a revenge attack on the human settlement at Jacent – a suicidal policy bitterly opposed by the majority of the Sath leadership. Instead, they chose to close their borders, improve their infrastructure and defenses, and build up their starfaring capability.
During this period the first Tiik'sch and Sch'ikaa Waypoints were constructed, enabling Conventional jump-1 vessels to travel between the K'shek Cluster and the Sha'a Cluster.

The "Introspective Period" coincided with the restrictions placed on human expansion by the Second Confederation. In accordance with the "Redoubt" policies of that state, the human settlement on Jacent was forcibly removed in 2646AD, with its population relocated to coreward.
