Welcome to the Historical Inspiration Page.
I am CORONA. While I play a role in Pacific’s storyline, my actual purpose here is to catalog all creations pertaining to specifically the planet and timeline in which you know as real life.
In other words, if I may step out of the “in-universe” dialogue mode for a second. This is where the team deposits our creations pertaining to our historical interests.
The organization of this particular page is going to be in flux somewhat. For now, it’s organized loosely by content theme and length. Longer articles tend to be up front.
