從某個時刻開始，諸派系開始關注同一種現象——在「開拓」創造的星際航路上，某些晦暗難明的物質擾亂了虛數能量的流向。就像是登山遇上了峭壁懸崖、遠航遇上海嘯漩渦……原本通暢的星際旅途變得危機重重、前途未卜。
這一現象極富侵略性，它以神秘物體「星核」的形式不斷侵染相鄰的世界——如同癌細胞一般在宇宙各處擴散。星際和平公司將其稱為「萬界之癌」，並警告星際旅客絕不能心存僥倖：因為身陷「萬界之癌」的世界早已經迷途難返，鮮有人絕境逢生。
人們對「萬界之癌」有着諸多猜測，其中大部分與「毀滅」納努克和「反物質軍團」有關。這群宇宙毀滅者似乎常常與星核出現在同一處。這是偶然還是必然，暫時不得而知。
Cancer of All Worlds (Phenomenon)
Various factions had started to notice a phenomenon since a specific time. A vague, imperceptible matter was disrupting the flow of Imaginary Energy along the interstellar routes created by Trailblaze. Like a mountain climber meeting a cliff or a long-distance ship encountering tsunamis and whirlpools, interstellar travel changed from being unobstructed to being dangerous and unpredictable.
This phenomenon is remarkably aggressive. It continues to encroach upon neighboring worlds in the form of a mysterious object, the Stellaron. It keeps spreading all over the universe like a cancerous growth, leading the Interastral Peace Corporation to call it "Cancer of All Worlds" and warning interstellar travelers not to take it lightly. The worlds swamped by the Cancer of All Worlds were soon beyond saving, and very few people survived.
There are many speculations regarding the Cancer of All Worlds, and most are related to Nanook the Destruction and the Antimatter Legion. These cosmic destroyers often seemed to appear together with Stellarons. We do not yet know if these occurrences are related or are only coincidences.
