# Rust to Dust
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rust to Dust is Weksa's first proving ground.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is a setting about neo-colonial culture shock under a galaxy-spanning empire
|
||
|
|
that does not need to conquer humanity in the old military sense. The empire
|
||
|
|
arrives, plugs Earth into its cultural and economic network, and lets prestige,
|
||
|
|
market access, media, and alien ultratech do the work.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Within a generation, human children speak in alien memes, adopt alien body
|
||
|
|
decoration norms, and treat human cultural inheritance as something to trade for
|
||
|
|
access. Resistance itself becomes content.
