(this scenario takes place in the MegaMan Legends world, no character creation or anything fancy yet)

In a world covered by endless water... People are forced to eke out a living on the small patches of land that remain above the sea... The people of this world rely on ancient technology driven by quantum refractors, a powerful energy source. These refractors lie in ancient ruins underground and in the sea, and are sought out by explorers called 'Diggers'... These brave explorers are the sole source of refractor energy -- which has become a cornerstone of the emerging civilizations. Originally, this was the Diggers' only purpose -- to find refractors so that civilization might endure... However, over the years, the story of a fabulous treasure, the legendary 'Mother Lode', began to be whispered among the Diggers... The Mother Lode -- a treasure so great that were it discovered, it would provide so much power that the world never need fear running out of energy... Seeking this Mother Lode, Diggers travel from one island to another in their flying machines, ever hoping that they'll find what they seek just over the horizon... Hope... Despair... Charity... Greed... Duty... Power... Who can say what truly motivates the Diggers?
