The Triumvirate reveal themselves to the fox-like creatures living in B1, and each grants them a gift to complete their transition to a Civilization.
John Locke bestows upon them the Treatises of Government, to form the foundation of sound and just laws.
Adam Smith bestows upon them The Wealth of Nations, to bring riches and prosperity through trade.
Isaac Newton bestows upon them the Principia Mathematica, to reveal the secrets of the universe through science.
Many tribes are reluctant to accept the Three Philosophies, but King Arth of Ter pledges to champion the Triumvirate and immediately enacts sweeping reforms to bring his tribe in line with them. Several smaller tribes join with the Terrans, the name which would one day be synonymous with their race. Together their leaders form the Council of the Round Table, charged with studying and interpreting the Three Philosophies for the benefit of the Terran people. Thus the Kingdom of Ter was formed, under the banner of a gold three-pointed star centered on a red field.
There was a long road ahead for the Terrans, and there would be several wars of unification before they would finally be one nation.
