I can't remember if you've mentioned this already, but the Eden ship made me wonder - given that a version of Christianity seems to be the dominant religion of the colonies, do they associate the loss of Earth with the exile of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden in Genesis?

nweismuller posted:A persistent story amongst the officers of House Weiss holds that the unquiet spirit of King Emmanuel Goodman haunts the old House Goodman command center, now a secondary command hub for the House Weiss fleet. Tales of unexplained bloodstains remain unverified by House Weiss itself. Look, I'm not saying I believe in Goodman's ghost and I'm not saying that I don't, but if we play The Birth every week in the mess cinema then he might be placated by the homage to his, uh, grandiose bombast and air of natural majesty. We'll just say it's important historical viewing for the new cadets.

Ah, that makes sense. I was wondering if it was like the Crusader Kings horse people thing.
