− | It was one year since the end of the [[Nomad War]], and several refugees and exiles were returning home in their Houses. After the [[Nomad War]], the public was presented with the harsh truth: an alien population managed to infiltrate the Houses, with the intention of starting an enormous war wich would've engulfed the whole sector. All of this to weaken the humans. Once they'd been weakened enough, the aliens would reveal themselves with their own forces and exterminate the remnants of humanity, already wore out by the war. Luckily one group, known simply as "[[The Order]]" waltzed in to save the day, expelling a sizeable portion of the aliens out of the sector, whilst keeping a small part of them.

− | Many among these former exiles and refugees couldn't stand the idea of a species out there, rebuilding and preparing an eventual second strike, and soon started a party, known as "Humanity First", with the intention of uniting the Houses in only one state and, once this would've been accomplished, go out there and do to these aliens what they wanted to do to humanity. The party presented itself in many planetary elections receiving a lot of success among voters, but it was eventually illegalized in all Houses for being "against national interests" in 807 AS.

History
A group of surviving Alliance citizens had been put into stasis chambers, intended to hold out to a small hope that the last forces would have achieved some peace for the remnants of the old power. This group was not aware of the destruction of most of the Solar system when the Nomads attacked, and were left alone in their stasis after Rockford had departed to Sirius.
40~A.S. - Rockford becomes aware of the existence of the survivors, and their falling conditions. With the collaboration of several influential people he commissions a new ship, the ANS-Eternity, in honor of a brave unit that helped the Sleeper Ships in their greatest test. Using Ageira new miniaturized warp engines, he and his team set out on an expedition to rescue the stranded survivors of Pluto.
50s A.S. - After a long voyage, shortened by the use of new technologies in Sirius, Atticus arrive at Pluto, and makes contact with the survivors. About a hundred people are recovered from the stasis chambers, and brought onboard the ANS-Eternity to be taken to their new home in Liberty. Rockford takes the opportunity to search for any data or technological pieces left behind by the Alliance, before departing back to Sirius.
Description
This special group of people, hailing from various nationalities from the old Alliance are kept united by the now old veteran, and instructed by Rockford to keep their ideals of an united Humanity, against the new reality of the colonists, who gradually drifted apart due to the distance and time, forming up the new Houses. The group, initially known as Shades of Sol, shifted over time, maintaining a small but loyal group that attracted and politically promoted the vision and interests of a reunification of the peoples of the Alliance. On the death of their founder and leader, Atticus Rockford, they rebranded themselves as the Atticus Alliance Foundation..
