Lore

A server-news post was created by an account named Sergeant Spookely stating: "For too long your kind has been crushing our brethren underfoot. Using our young as food and commercial items, while you continue to expand with your lofty goals of taking over all of space. But you have pushed too hard and awakened us! Now you shall learn fear as we, the Pump Kins return to combat your malicious expansion. As you have pushed into many of our systems, we shall push into the heart of your systems. You will find us in Asteri, home of your great trade routes."
It is unknown if this is considered to be strictly canon to the Lore of Horizons End or is just event flavor text.
