Nah, I think a relatively recent incident would be better. The Sauru'u would probably serve better, since I was thinking of it being about 200 or so years ago, which fits with the emergence of the Sauru'u. Though perhaps even 15 is too recent; we could go 50 or so years ago.

And also, quick question. {Would anyone object to actual dialogue from Rimworlders being in braces like this instead of parentheses? Just as kind of differentiate them on account of their language being pretty much unrepeatable by most species (and vice versa). I may have forgotten to mention it, but their voices kind of sound like the piping of a woodwind instrument.}
