The Feathers
There is a secret underground organization known as the feathers that acts as the governing body for the sparrows, that is, in as much as anyone can actually govern such a diverse group of rebels and smugglers. The hope that the feathers will one day rise to become the next super power, strong enough to destroy the UAG and put an end to their galactic domination, lives in the hearts of all those who have been oppressed by the UAG's ruthless tactics, but that's not the goal of the feathers. In fact, it goes against their core values of sovereignty, community, and balance expressed in the inspirational manifesto that has become known as the sparrow's code of the flock which all the feathers embrace as a vision for the future that they have pledged themselves to create. What the feathers want is simply to act as a counter balance on the galactic scales of power, much as the ancient Bane'ile and the Singers of Songs once did, keeping the insatiable corporatocracy of Taanruk and its UAG in check. The feathers' most cherished dream is to bring about another golden age of song when all of Kantostara will be free to live in balance and harmony once more.
