"I salute you, fellow sapients: may you die blissfully. For those of you who don't recognize me, I am Professor Starymaple of the University of Zacania. The excellent Spacefarer's Guide series has proved so popular with our Terran readers that we have found it necessary to issue this new edition of the Guide to Sector Two: Rourke's Diadem, in the Terran tongue. I am pleased to give it my endorsement, and that of the University.
Here you will find described the ninety-six worlds of the Empire of Cavoral, which spans the cluster called Rourke's Diadem, and also the various Guilds and Merchant Houses which link it to our own Second Empire. Many facets of the Terran race are puzzling to more contemplative species, but none more so than the multiplicity of "religions" by which humans seek to comprehend the Infinite. Each claims the Truth for itself, as if the branch should call itself the Tree - but it is not my place to judge. At any rate, be warned: in the Diadem, truth wars with truth; if you would seek your fortune there, you must walk, fly, swim or crawl with extreme caution. May you learn something new every day.
- Professor Starymaple University of Zacania
(Preface to 2nd Terran Edition)"
