"Director Alfaderis, what a pleasure it is to see you again." A tall pale woman with short, jet black hair and a gleaming white military uniform with black highlights said as she entered through a set of automatic glass doors into a large lobby-looking room with a similar color scheme to the uniform she was wearing. Approaching another, shorter woman who was donning a white labcoat and skirt with dark brown hair tied up into a a tight ponytail. The two shaking hands as they stood in-front of one another, the woman in the military uniform soon being flanked by multiple other women in heavy sets of sleek, white armor, these other women being members of the Femian Ground Corps, the same branch of the Armed Forces who had dispatched one of their top high-ranking officers; Commander Satera to meet with the Director of Elyisum Genetics, the largest genetics and birthing corporation in Femian space to inquire about specific upgrades to the Femian genome for the next generation and their potential benefits to the military and its many exploits.<br>
<br>
"Likewise, Commander Satera. I trust the Belief gave you wind to make great haste from Ground Corps Command." Alfraderis replied with a smile as she turned around and gestured with her hand for the Commander to follow her, as the two women begun walking down the lobby, the soldiers not following now as they took up their strict guard positions at the entrance where they would wait until the Commander returned. Satera nodding with her own courteous smile, though in reality had little patience for this corporate banter, as long as the military recieved the results it desired in the end. "Indeed it did, I couldn't have gotten here any quicker even if I had tried." Another set of automatic polished-glass doors slid open in-front of the two as they strolled into another room, Alfraderis returning with her own words shortly thereafter. "Well I am certainly glad to hear that, sister. Although I must admit I was taken aback with the urgency that your superiors expressed when they asked about the quality of the next generation of our Growth-Sisters. I hate to seem as if I have morally decayed but I can't help but as to inquire about what the need for such urgency was? Have any of the baseline factions or the decadent fools of Mars declared war on us?" The smaller of the two women asked with a slight concern to her tone.<br>
<br>
Satera shook her head with a more fond smile than anything else. "I am well aware that your morals are in a perfectly acceptable state, sister you need not be concerned about that. And you need neither be concerned about our relations with either the Baselines or the Decadents. My superiors are simply eager to begin the next phase of advances to our genome, they wish--as we all do to further improve ourselves and our future sisters. It is the belief of both the Admiral of the Home Fleet and the Sisters' Assembly that it is best to begin the next advances now rather than later, not out of any immediate concerns but more out of intelligent and justifable precaution when considering the irrationality of the Baselines and the hatred of the Decadents." Alfraderis gave an understanding hum as they continued with their walk, entering a long, sleek white hallway with similarly healthy green accents running across the walls in beautiful designs and markings, other women in labcoats now passing by as they busied themselves with their work.<br>
<br>
"That is more than understandable, thank you sister. I'm aware you had no obligation to answer such a question given the privacy of your work." Alfraderis responded as they reached the end of the long corridor and a third set of glass doors slid open for them, the two stepping through and entering what now appeared to be a control room of sorts, the walls littered with various sophisticated computers and other equipment, many of which were being operated by even more women in labcoats as they went to and from one machine to another, making sure everything was working just as it should have been as the Director and her military associate went relatively unnoticed upon their arrival. Satera speaking up, "No need to thank me. I believe its more than fair for someone of your caliber to know the inner-workings of such an urgent request. Speaking of which, how are the upgrades to our genome and the next generation of Growth-Sisters coming along?" She asked curiously, although losing some of her military formality and stiffness as she asked that question, swallowing briefly as she fixed her stance. Alfraderis looking to her with a more fond expression as she gave the Commander her answer.<br>
<br>
"The upgrades are coming along better than even we expected don't you worry, sister. And I hope it is not out of place for me to bring this up but I am aware that you and your Bondmate are expecting your own daughter in the next generation?" She said with a warm smile, Satera nodding slightly as she looked over the various computers that were running this control room. "It is not out of place, fear not. And yes, me and Mayra are expecting our daughter relatively soon. We're considering naming her Deia, after the great general from the Era of Expansion." Alfraderis nodded once more, still genuinely happy to hear about that. "Well, Commander. You should have no further reason to feel any worry for your daughter's genetics, they will be by far the best this corporation has ever developed, she will be the perfect Femian and one that will contribute greatly to our Hierarchy." It was then Satera's turn to smile again. "Thank you, Director. I look forward to holding her for the first time, and once I see the results of your work in this labratory for myself then I can return to my Superiors and confidently assure them of the quality of your developments. However they also do have some suggestions."<br>
<br>
"Suggestions?" Alfraderis asked curiously. Satera nodding as the pair sat down by a nearby desk and set of chairs. "Just some minor things, not mandatory but the Admiral of the Home Fleet and her advisory council believed them to be wise additions to the next generation. I'll have you read over them and provide feedback." Satera said as she tapped on a thin white band around her wrist a few times as a blinking white light then appeared on the thin white band around Alfraderis' wrist.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Three of the High Councillors walked through the arid Martian forest. Pine needles and dry dirt cracked underfoot, and pinecones were scattered here and there. A creature that looked like a furry octopus swung from branch to branch above them. Seraim and Ojahn III were comfortable in their native environment, while Tagisor Honara was forced to wear a suit to survive the cold, thin atmosphere. They all walked in silence for a while, admiring the world they had created. Finally, Seraim spoke up. "So, Tagisor. I assume you had a reason for wanting to meet with us. I also assume you had a reason for excluding Ajax and Akiki?" Tagisor laughed, an almost-cruel old man's laugh, one of the few things that reflected his true age. "Yes, I suppose I did. The Femian Hierarchy is no longer a threat we can ignore. They go against our very way of life, everything we stand for; the sole reason they exist is to oppose our values. We should have shot them all instead of letting them leave on those damn ships, but here we are, and we cannot change the mistakes of the past, only build a better future."<br>
<br>
The three stopped on top of an outcropping of red rock, a natural piece of Mars for all eternity. "There is no other option but to strike them before they strike us. The labs at Mykoi Habitat are hard at work at something rather... interesting. They have a few names for it, but it can target the Femian genome and kill the host with 100% lethality. It spreads faster than wildfire, it's near-undetectable until it destroys its host in a few hours, and it won't affect anyone else. It needs some ingredients that we are unable to provide, unfortunately, which is why I need you." Ojahn III spoke up. "You just assumed we'd accept your mass genocide and that we'd help you with it." Tagisor laughed again, harsher this time. "Yes, I did, and you will, because you know the Femians are not only a threat, they are the darkest kind of sinner. They have the gift of genetic engineering, but they use it to build one race, not many. They preach uniformity, not diversity. They don't truly spread life, they're more like a tumor: spreading, technically alive, but hurting true life instead of aiding it. You know as well as I do they must be stopped." Ojahn III had no rebuttal to that.<br>
<br>
The sun began to set over the horizon. "So, what I need is to send covert agents into Femian territory and get samples of the newest clone generation's DNA. Our Femian DNA archive is almost 50 years out of date, and so any weapon we create to defend or attack them will be inefficient. We can create Femians loyal to us to serve as spies, and they can simply said to be older to explain their out of date DNA. I need the Department to get these agents in to the Hierarchy; your ships are the only ones of ours ever even allowed in. I need the Church's approval simply to have this done, a 3/5 majority will approve this mission. Do you all agree." The dog and the deer looked at each other grimly, then nodded. "Excellent. Let's get back to the spaceport and head to Mykoi Habitat; we can show you our work on the Virus and introduce you to our Femian agents, they are eager to meet their glorious leaders."<br>

<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">A colossus of some sort breached the skies above the land of Yarith. It was alien; something that had never been seen here before. A beast straight from mythological texts. A foreigner in an untouched land. For why it was here, the answer was completely unknown.</span><br>
<br>
Along its flank, the words 'Rhapsody' was tattooed onto its skin with a glaring red substance. It was in a language unseen before.<br>
<br>
Soon enough, miniatures of the great figure began to descend down to the surface at a frightening speed, before disappearing behind the disguise of trees.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><b>First Lieutenant Aaron Newman</b></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">As the vessel made contact with the surface, a junction of figures clad in armour piled out of the cargo door. Each carried a weapon of some sort, in case the welcoming party didn't seem too friendly. Each of these visitors followed a single individual as they made their way onto the surface of the planet.</span><br>
<br>
Soon their parade came to a halt, as the figure the rest had followed turned towards them. "Alright, men." He started, his vocal communicator trying to make sense of his words. "1st Platoon gets the honour of surveying Region 1. From what satellite footage tells us, this planet is devoid of inhabitants. But that doesn't give you lot an excuse to die today. Spread out and form into squads."<br>
<br>
As soon as the order was issued, these visitors dispersed from the main crowd and reformed into smaller gatherings, before heading deep into the swamps of this alien planet.<br>

<br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'">Veezkus Tutzpochtlu had been in Ra'lash when the monster descended from the sky. Naturally many young and aspiring hunters came to him to relay what they had seen, and to ask to venture out with him. Of course he would go and confront the beast and its...spawn, after all, his people followed strength and he could not afford to appear weak or, gods forbid, a coward. He gathered his weapons as fast as he could and gathered a group of his best hunters, leaving Xok-Qahtzish and his warriors at the settlement, just if the intruders tried to attack their home.<br>
<br>
Veezkus and his hunters wasted no time and made their way to the swamps, the scouts had told him these strange creatures spawn had headed there. This sent a wave of relief through Veezkus, he knew in the swamps the hunters would be at an advantage. They reached "the border" of the main swampland's, they began to slink into the waters, using their tails as rudders to glide through the murky water, ducking their bodies fully under every now and then. Some of the hunters chose to ascend the trees, using their darker scales to somewhat blend in.<br>
<br>
They eventually found the intruders, now Veezkus could examine them, that's how you deal with new prey after all, you learn everything about it. However this prey was different, this prey stood on two legs like they did, carried..things like they did, although he didn't know what things they where carrying. Perhaps they weren't prey...perhaps they where hunters themselves, but then what had they come to hunt?<br>
<br>
Veezkus didn't understand the intruders well enough to strike or attempt conversation with yet, instead he and his hunters continued to stalk them, practically hanging onto the men's belts.</span>​</div><a href="/members/axel-the-englishman.37472/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="37472" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

</div></div>As Irisviellya's Transport Flew down from the clouds above she was met with two dozen fighter escorts redirecting the pilot to the landing area. "my my, someone is showing off" Iris commented as she watched on the screen observing the planet and its cities; after a while the transport finally veered downward and onto a landing pad where she could see there was common with ranks of soldiers and curious peasants lining up. When the transport settled down, Iris got up from her seat and walked to the hanger door right as it dropped down. She was met with the intense light of Ursa Major's sun and the sound of tens of thousands of people kneeing before her; when her eyes adjusted she saw before her ranks of soldiers mostly men at arms and a few knights lining the half kilometer bridge kneeing and behind them, peasants who were all on their knees with their head to the ground. Beyond the peasants themselves and off of the bridge in the far distance were massive war machines, their legs bent mimicking the rest, it was obvious to her that the ruler of this planet was trying very hard to impress her after she sent word that she was coming to their planet to check on things. With a smile she walked forth onto the planet's capital keep; she was used to this kind of reception and didnt expect otherwise.<br>
<br>
Once she reached the end of the bridge there waiting for her was one Otarr Skaekeg; he was dressed in lavish robes and bowed to her before returning to his usual posture and extended a head to greet her. "Welcome to Ursa prime Your majesty." Irisviellya accepted his hand and he lead them inside the keep. She could hear the people outside get up and start talking and gossiping about her, even celebrating. She followed the Skaekeg to what seemed like a large dining hall "So what brings the most important lady of the order here today?" he asked her before sitting down, gesturing for a servant to get her chair for her and for her to sit down. "The situation with House Skyre." She declined his offer, instead preferring business. Skaekeg exhaled as he knew this conversation was going to happen sooner or later. "Yes, our relations seem strong so far but the real concern is the Hierarchy, Skyre isnt so much a threat as we are dependent on them for our resources but the Hierarchy is very militarized like we are but they are much larger." he responded to her. Iris gave the old Aristocrat a long cold stare, the Skaekeg family had been trading with them for years and she suspected he may be more loyal to them than to her. "We can't continue to stay dependent on them forever, you know this. Efforts to expand have been opposed by a few select people." Iris sat down on the chair with her elbows on the table. "I suspect these people happen to be in high places what do you think Skaekeg?"<br>

</div></div>Gwalter's stealth Corvette snapped back into real space in low orbit of Yirath after there was a report of foreign ships in the atmosphere of Yirath. Soon enough he was met with the image of a large ship of some kind below him. "By the crows wing, the Nobles will be unhappy about this." he reported back to the small research station on the planet that there was a large ship in atmosphere. Not wanting to get shot at he flew at cruising speed to minimize any chance detection sensors will see him as he continued to monitor the ship and its happenings On the ground was a small hidden research base were a team of a dozen scientists who were doing research on the planets biodiversity were now wondering what to do. The four knights with them suggested that they keep low and send for help and they had an argument that these invaders will disrupt the natural evolution of the planet and the knights were concerned with the safety of everyone on the base. They finally settled with calling in a strike fleet and for their pilot to ward them off with warnings. Gwalter, was not amused by this news, there was no way he could take out a ship that large alone, but orders were orders. Sighing he got out of visual range and clicked on his communicator to hail the ship. "Unidentified ship this planet is Quarantined under decree of Count Ermelandus of the Tempus Concordat. Turn back, the planet's flora and fauna is hostile to any foreign entities." he let go of the communicator and watched the ship in case it got hostile.<br>

<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">The Rhapsody was a fine vessel. A ship, fresh off of the production line and already tasked with its first mission of charting the galactic map. And for a little departing gift, brigades of Expeditionary Corps and an escort of frigates made the birthday of this beast an even more grand event.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><b>Commander Thomas Randolph</b></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Captain of the ship sat ever so comfortably in the bridge of his vessel. And he's probably going to be sat like that for a long time, until the Expeditionary Corps finished their reconnaissance planetside. Well, at least that's what he thought until an officer on the bridge disturbed him during his tranquil moment.</span><br>
<br>
"Sir, incoming hail." The officer announced. And shortly after these words, an image appeared on the holocommunicator of the bridge. Whoever it was on the other side, they clearly didn't want them around. In response, the commander returned with "Unidentified vessel. You are required to produce official documents regarding your claim. Failure to do so, and you will be considered to be interfering with official military business."<br>
<br>
The commander wasn't going to play it safe. He was an officer of the Purview's naval forces. He wouldn't simply back down to uncited claims.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Canticle, Philemon<br>
</b>​</div><i>Tiang. Tiang. Tiang. </i>The steel bell clanged and the sound reverberated down the streets of Canticle. People looked out their windows and stood in darkened doorways as the ornate hearse that bore the bell in a scaffold above the casket passed by, drawn by a single, majestic white horse. The hearse was followed in short order by a small troop of soldiers in black dress uniforms. Behind them, a small phalanx of monks with their cowls drawn over their heads. A dirge hung off all their lips like a collective murmur. <br>
<br>
Former High Curator Larates Skyre, laid in a plain black coffin, had died early that morning of pulmonary exhaustion. He was close to one hundred years old. After his Last Rites performed, he was conveyed to a sepulchre in Saint's Common where he would dwell for the rest of time. The ringing of the bell called all to the mourning of their leader, he the exhaulted chief of the Curatorai. The day was grey as they laid him in his tomb and the door was sealed. Close by, Aldone Skyre stood and stared at the door in disbelief. A man approached him, dressed in a fashionable but mournful black suit, head covered with a similarly coloured wide fedora. <br>
<br>
"How shall I speak, Joseph?" Spake the new Curator, "He through whom I was born, through whose sweat I was fed and lodged, through whose love I was made lovable, and through whose gift of life I regard the spectacle of creation, has been laid low, and will return to ashes. Oh, unhappy day..." <br>
<br>
The man removed his hat and held it in front of him with both hands. "My solemn condolences, my liege." <br>
<br>
Aldone turned to look into his unnaturally blue eyes. "Thank you, Joseph. What tidings do you bare?" <br>
<br>
Joseph Lockmore, Master of Spies, a brilliant mentat, shook his head. "Nothing good, I fear. Much interest has been taken in the savage lizard men of Yirith. Katrax is said to be working some form of diabolism, of which sort I have no clue. The Institute are suspicious of them as well as the Order of the Crows. This much my spies have told me." <br>
<br>
Aldone nodded. He glanced back towards the tomb. "I have been in this post only six hours and yet I feel the whole weight of Civilized Space on my shoulders. Pray for me, Joseph." <br>
<br>
"It will be done, sir. Now come, your dominion awaits. Let the monks and soldiers so loved by your father bury him, and you bury him as well in your turn.."</div>

Veezkus Tutzpochtlu and his men had been stalking the men for some time now and he had determined that these men had been more than just simple animals, perhaps they where hunters or perhaps they where warriors but he couldn't tell. He kept watching them with his own hunters trailing alongside him.<br>
<br>
And then it hit him, they must have been a tribe of hunters being led by their chieftain! Veezkus quietly hissed his idea to his fellows, who also saw the possibility. Veezkus, being one to stick by his cultural traditions knew he had to "greet" them. He maneuvered his way in front of the intruders, waiting for his men to get into their new positions.<br>
<br>
Then he rose up from the swamp waters in unison with his hunters, for a moment it would have seemed like the swamp had come to life. The Za'lashi surrounded the intruders and Veezkus stepped forward and plunged his spear into the ground at the strange men's feet.<br>

<b><u>Remembrance, Future Hopes, and a Missing Fleet</u></b><br>
Today marks the 5th Year since the end of what we hope to be the only Atlusian Civil War to happen on our pristine planet. Rebuilding efforts on the effected regions are proceeding smoothly with the Capital of Markova being restored back to its prime with the addition of a new statue in Liberty Square. The statue will be officially unveiled tomorrow by His Majesty, Prince Branwen.<br>
<br>
Moving on to the latest update regarding the missing Observation Ship, the HMS Edelweiss. The last report from the ship came in almost two weeks ago before a freak Solar Storm in the Procyon system is believed to have knocked out their communications array. We can only hope for their safe return of our brave men and women out in the harshness of space.<br>
<br>
Now onto the weather.</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'arial'">---------------------------------------------------------</span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><b><u>Atlus Spacey</u></b><br>
<b><u>HMS Edelweiss</u></b><br>
<b><u>Location: ???</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"All hands, brace!" The Captain cried out as the ship shuddered violently as it plunged through subspace into unknown territory. Commander Eirika Gunther, a normally unflappable ship Captain with a pristine uniform, was clutching onto the armrest of her Captain's chair for her dear life, her cap askew. There was panic in the bridge as multiple systems red lined or failed. The warning alarms added to the noise as the crew did their best to keep their ship together. The helmsman was doing his best to wrestle some control back but the solar flare had knocked out some of the more delicate systems.<br>
<br>
"It won't hold Captain! I need to take us out of warp before the engines blow!" The Helmsman shouted as the ship shuddered and the Engineering Deck flashed red on the status screen. Eirika glanced at the warp map and seeing no choice, made a snap decision. <br>
<br>
"Send a distress signal on all frequencies after we leave warp! Helmsman, take us out!" Eirika barked out the order. Even if she was afraid for her life, an officer has to show some dignity. That way they die a dignified death instead of blubbering like a child. <br>
<br>
"Roger! Hang on, everyone!" The Helmsman slammed down on the warp switch and the ship hurtled out of a freshly made rupture in real space over the swampy planet of Yirath. Before anyone could relax, they noticed that unlike usual warps, they weren't slowing down. Rather, they were speeding up. Towards the planet.<br>
<br>
"Situation report!" Eirika ordered, attempting to adjust her cap before the ship violently shuddered, throwing most of the crew off their seats. A loud alarm sounded as the ship switched to emergency power. That could only mean...<br>
<br>
"Bloody hell! We lost the fuckin' Engine Room! The damned warp engine exploded!" A crewman reported. Eirika could barely bark out another order when the situation went south faster than free-fall onto Asterios. "Captain, I-I lost control of the ship! We're heading straight for the planet!" <br>
<br>
"Verdammt! Everyone assume crash positions! Helmsman, I don't know how but I want you to get us down on that planet properly!" Eirika ordered as she buckled herself to her seat and gripped tight onto the armrests. The Helmsman merely nodded and did his best to control the ship's flaming descent onto the planet.<br>
<br>
Despite his best efforts, the ship soon became a bright meteor as it burst through the planet's atmosphere. Just when it seems the ship will crash bow first into the planet, it managed to lift its bow and continued to skim the surface for a good 2 minutes before finally crashing on somewhere to the Southeast of the planet. It continued to gash into the muddy swamp for a good 900m before finally grounding to a halt.<br>
<br>
Is it unknown if anyone survived.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Spaceport, Mars</b>​</div><br>
The spy looked over his shoulder and shifted his gaze to the upper deck of the concourse as he debarked from the commercial spaceliner on Martian soil. He wore a grey, wool coat in a modern style, carried a dull brown suitcase, and his hair was messy red. From behind glasses, charismatic brown eyes surveyed the people and uplifted animals in line in front of him until they reached the Customs Official's desk. Upon reaching the desk, a lionness in a sleek Customs uniform accosted him for his identification. He presented a holofilm passport that marked him as a citizen of Temperus Alterium. It was convincing enough to fool the official, and thus he made his beeline to a man in a black coat standing by a telescreen near a shuttered food vendor, out of sight of most of the concourse. He was told that this would be his contact on Mars.<br>
<br>
"Olympus Mons really came out ahead in the soccer game last night, huh?"<br>
<br>
"Yes, but to be fair, Cenae Mare's best goalie was out injured."<br>
<br>
The spy smiled imperceptibly, uttering the codephrase and hearing the coded reply. His interlocuter glanced at him through opaque, black sunglasses.<br>
<br>
"So, schematics of the type-VI rifle and the new cartridge design?" He asked.<br>
<br>
"Yes, among other things." The spy replied, tapping his suitcase affectionately.<br>
The man nodded. "So I'll be blunt, Mr. Hensen, why do you want to sell out your country?"<br>
<br>
The spy nodded and pretended to watch the sports match on the telescreen. "Why else? Money, my friend. Money, and the splendors of this fantastic republic. Really, you cannot imagine it. My home on Indi had scarce a telescreen anywhere," he said, gesturing to the device on the wall, "and people read books! Paper."<br>
<br>
"How barbaric." The man with the black glasses agreed.<br>
<br>
"Indeed, and all the praying, and the fasting, and the stricture, always looking back."<br>
<br>
"Indeed." Replied his interlocuter.<br>
<br>
"This place, science has transformed into a veritable Eden. This is the world we should strive to build, instead of waiting for God to build it for us, and guarding nought but the past in ancient despotism."<br>
<br>
"Yes, I concur." The man in the black glasses pushed up his coat sleeve to 'check his watch'. The jammer, cleverly disguised as a wristwatch, was still covertly jamming the frequency of the one nearby security camera, projecting a false image in which neither of them would appear. It could be undone, of course, by backtracking and looking at the metadata of the camera, but it would only yield corrupted image files if the device was working properly. He turned back to Mr. Hensen, "I think you were followed." He said and pointed behind him.<br>
<br>
The spy turned instinctively to see if he had, indeed, been compromised. His interlocuter then gently but swiftly placed his hands on his back and the back of the spy's neck. Small, poisoned needles shot out from two pneumatic guns mounted under the wrists, one piercing the heart and killing Mr. Hensen instanty, and one slicing through the brain rendering him mute. The assassin caught the body as it fell and stood him up against the nearby wall inconspicuously, then grabbed the briefcase. He removed his glasses and tossed them aside, revealing a pair of bright blue eyes that glowed  like moonlight. With the grace and seemless performance of a ballet dancer, he converged with the crowd boarding a passenger liner to Philemon, and by the time the body of Mr. Hensen was discovered, the assassin was probably safely behind the confines of House Skyre space.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Sir Gwalter Eberwolf, Yirath.</b><br>​</div>Gwalters eyes narrowed. "Military business? what kind of military operations would anyone want here?" He forwarded the message to the base below and both scientist and knight were confused. Aside from the absurd abundance of natural life on Yirath there wasn't much to want the planet. It isn't habitable at all; the atmosphere hardly had enough oxygen, the inhabitants were only slightly less than hostile. They themselves hadn't found any trace of rare minerals either, it was simply a planet uninhabitable to any human life. Just as Gwalter was pondering about it one of his three man crew shouted that they got another signal off planet but before Gwalter could tell them to pull it up something was on the scanner rocketing at them. "Evasive maneuvers!" The small corvettes afterburners(or equivalent boosters whatever) activated and zoomed out of the way of what was presumably a large meteor of some sort "What was that?!" he looked over his crew and a screen showed up from one of the various sensors. The orange fireball collided into the planet in a less than graceful fashion but then it started to take shape. It was another ship of some sort however this one was definitely larger than his corvette. "Pull up the signal!" It was a distress signal from a HMS Edelweiss of the Principality of Atlus. He relayed the information to the aristocrats planetside, no doubt they'd felt the crash and gotten the signal.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Count Ermelandus, Yirath</b>​</div><br>
Back on the ground Count Ermelandus had been surveying the situation with the unknown entities, he also confused why a military branch would be here at all. More panic and confusion hit his science team as they felt a tremor and a boom followed by a call from Sir Gwalter. "My liege, it appears an Altusian warship has crash landed into the planet, what shall i do?" The count rubbed his chin why would the Altusians be here? were they going to colonize? he was then reminded of the unknown entities. If they were hostile it would be a good idea to get the aid of the Altusians, the strike fleet wont be here until a couple of days. "Message them to stay in their ship and the coordinates to our base. The atmosphere is not breathable, we'll send an extraction squad to help out and bring back a few to get them back home." the Count turned around to his science team and the four knights that were hired to stand guard for them. "Hopefully the unknowns wont cause trouble and the Altusians comply." he looked over to the knights "i need one of you to stay behind in case we are found." The knights nodded and looked at each other for a moment before three of them walked off, presumably out of the base and into the wilderness.<br>
<br>
Back up in the atmosphere Gwalter got word to provide any support the ground knights needed, as well as a basic and classified dossier on the count to forward to the unknowns it reads that he is a lead scientists on biology and the behaviors of animals as well as he is an count with some influence in one of the concordats planets.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 18px">Sergeant Joshua Radnitzky</span><br>
</span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Radnitzky and his unit were deep in the swamps, carrying out their mission as ordered. They had moved to the north to survey the terrain and assess it for classified reasons. The details were never spared for a grunt such as Josh. His paygrade wasn't high enough to get his hands on some top-secret documents. But he had a mission, and it wasn't like he was planning on moving here.</span><br>
<br>
The Sergeant got a little jumpy. Bog people rose from the marshes as if they were waiting for them, ready to spring a trap. In a quick flash, Josh and his men were back to back, ready to open fire. The Rules of First Contact made it clear not to open fire on potential xenoes, though being surrounded by swamp people wasn't the most comfortable of situations.<br>
<br>
Then when of them approached, raising his spear. Josh kept his finger tight to the trigger. If this bog man tried anything, he'd be more dead than Einstein's analysis of FTL travel.<br>
<br>
Whoever this boggie was, he redirected his spear into the ground. The Sergeant was unsure what to make of it. He reached towards it, risking a gesture of disrespect if he picked it up. And then there was another little surprise.<br>
<br>
Another ship breached the atmosphere. The flames bursting free from the ship made it appear as if it was some sort of galactic hot rod. It was obviously going to crash at this point, and the Sergeant watched in awe as it plunged into the horizon. A voice barked over the communications. "1st Platoon, your orders have changed. You are to investigate the crash site and search the wreckage for survivors or potential hazards."<br>
<br>
Shuttles approached in the distance, with one diverting from its path and directly heading for the Sergeant and his men.<br>

Veezkus watched carefully as the stranger that he perceived to be a chieftain reach for the now grounded spear, he noticed how these foreign hunters pointed their......weapons at him, again, he didn't know what they where but he assumed they where weapons, why else would the strangers be pointing them like that. Seeing this stranger reach for the spear told Veezkus two things, h either wanted a duel or he was going to attack, either way it meant blood would be spilled.<br>
<br>
It seemed the decision was about to be made when...something blazed out from the sky, a great ball of fire, this stunned Veezkus, he turned his head quickly to face it, the ornaments on his helmet jingling. His gaze turned back to the stranger, giving him an awkward stare that seemed to bypass the language barrier. Where the Gods angry with them? was that why the sky was falling?<br>
<br>
His thoughts would be interrupted yet again when he saw more creatures descend from the sky. Thinking they where some angry spirit or monster that came to punish him by stealing his new prey, he hissed to his men to aim their bows and spears at them, they where to attack at his command.<br>

<span style="font-family: 'georgia'">Gar'shal Yutzelhup had been in his village, attempting to make sense of the monsters coming from the sky, he thought that rather than punishing them, the Gods where testing them by sending otherworldly foes and prey. Gar'shal grabbed his weapons and assembled his own group of hunters and warriors. The crash was fairly close to them and they set off immediately.<br>
<br>
The time had been short, mainly because the idea of the Gods being displeased with them was already enough motivation to get there. They quested through the swamps until they found the creatre. It had left a trail of destruction in its wake, but Gar'shal was a warrior and he was confident he could take it.<br>
<br>
The swamps had done a decent job at quenching the flames and Gar'shal looked at it from every angle he could and it still made no sense to him but he figured it was the creatures way of distracting  those it prayed on. <br>
<br>
Gar'shal borrowed a spear from one of the hunters and aimed it at the monster, he threw it. His throw was followed by other spears and arrows but to their shock...they simply bounced off the creature....</span><br>​</div><a href="/members/wandering-grim-hollow.23349/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="23349" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

"go on"<br>
"i didnt hear much but" he leaned in closer "word has it one of the princesses is organizing something" <br>
Irisviellya stood up from her seat slowly and looked down at the count. "You know what you speak is treason Otarr Skaekeg" <br>
Otarr rose his hands to her. "I speak only to serve you my queen" He closed his eyes not wanting to know when his end will be at the exact moment. But instead of a quick death like he anticipated he felt the cold metal of her gauntlet grasp his neck tightly and pulling him off the ground.<br>
"If what you say is fabricated not only you will be punished"<br>
She let go of him and he fell back on his chair; as he watched Irisviellya walk away he added one last thing. "It might not just be one!" <br>
<br>
Iris gave a glance back at the old count and continued to walk her way back to the shuttle with her mind racing with these new thoughts. Who cloud it be? Felicia is the most suspicious, Larissa is still young. But what if it was both? what if it was her brothers too? When she walked out of the city keep she saw the peasants mixed with some of the men at arms partying to her arrival, she grimaced slightly and quickly walked to her shuttle to go back home as quickly as possible.</div>

<br>
One of the furthest reaching fleets of the Femian Naval Corps, the 22nd Outer Fleet was one of countless that patrolled the more distant regions of Femian controlled territory, regions that other nations may not put as much priority on due to them not being as developed or populated as their inner territores but that the Hierarchy took utmost priority in ensuring were defended and patrolled by vast, powerful warships that were reaching quite high figures in terms of quantity. This decision primarily being due to the Femian ideology of not picking one over the other, as such and as one could expect the Naval Corps were undoubtedly the largest and most powerful out of all the branches of the Hierarchy in-order for them to confidently patrol their own territory and to use their great might to expand said territory further out into the galaxy at large. With both of those capabilities being something that the Hierarchy had once upon a time stressed its emphasis on desiring to have, but which they now did have fortunately for them. A tall, lean woman in a grayish uniform now stood at the front of the Command Deck of the gargantuan vessel known as the Arrowhead, one of many countless ships of its class that spanned god knows how long due to the classified nature of the ship's schematics but were such a huge size even to the naked eye that one could only assume that their length started in the low miles. The woman standing at the front of the Command Deck now being approached by another woman in a uniform of the exact same appearance, a grayish color with a few red and blue bars indicating her rank attached to the left-breast of her uniform. Clicking her boot-covered heels together as they emitted a noticeable tapping sound before putting her fist to her chest in salute of her superior, the woman she had approached or as everyone else knew her, Admiral Lateria. "Ma'am." The lower-ranking officer spoke up first in introduction as the Admiral turned around to face her, giving her a single light nod as her subordinate lowered her salute. This subordinate being a Captain under the name of Atheria. "Yes, Captain?" She asked curiously, a brow raised in question at the other woman.<br>
<br>
"Naval Intelligence is reporting increased communications and movement around a small swamp world known as FETNS-098B." The Captain informed her superior with, the Admiral giving an acknowledging nod as the Captain handed over a datapad that had been tucked in-between her other arm, Lateria taking it as she read it over. "Interesting, do we know from which of the baseline nations?" She questioned curiously. "Why yes ma'am, from initial reports we can confirm that the First Purview of Immensum, the Tempus Concordat and the Principility of Atlus are all present or near FETNS-098B." Atheria told her superior confidently, the Admiral turning around to look out from the Command Deck to the everlasting black abyss of space, dotted by thousands and thousands of little bright dots with the occasional Conquerer-class Battlecruiser drifting past in their usual patrol pattern that surrounded the Arrowhead, even these gigantic ships being dwarved to an unimaginable extent by the sheer scale of the Arrowhead. Lateria's bright green eyes skimming over the details of the electronic document she had been given, humming in confirmation to herself with every bit she read. "And did Naval Intelligence give us an exact request as to what they wanted us to do with this newfound information?" She asked again, wanting to know everything she could about what she had been told about. The Captain shaking her head as she spoke, "No, ma'am. They merely thought that it would be best for the operational security of this fleet since we are one of the closest Femian fleets to the area that we know about this in the event that anything unexepected appears." Lateria nodded firmly. "Understood, tell Naval Intelligence I'll upgrade the Readiness Level to a 2.0, that should get us in the condition to respond to anything immediate. Thank you, Captain." The Admiral said with a dismissive tone, however surprised when the Captain spoke up again with something other than a yes ma'am. "Actually, ma'am. There is another incident that I believe you should have a look at." She said, Lateria swiftly coming back with. "You believe?" She questioned, the Captain nodding. "Yes, ma'am. Naval Intelligence didn't spawn this report but I believe it will be an interesting update for you, here." She said, leaning over and tapping at the datapad she had given to the Admiral that remained in said Admiral's hands, another report popping up but this time from Interior Intelligence.<br>
<br>
"Captain Atheria, where did you acquire this?" Lateria asked, the young Captain looking anxious as she responded. "Well, a friend in the Interior filled me in on it, told me that it seemed important enough for someone in your position to know since it will most likely take a great while before the Imperial Chiefs come to an agreement on whether or not to distribute this information widely." At this, Lateria shook her head with a soft smile. "Now I should have you reported for this." Atheria winced slightly. "But I admire your intuition and your dedication to the Naval Corps, however naive it may be. Excellent work, Captain. But don't allow this one incident to set a precedent, understood?" The Captain nodded quickly. "Of course, ma'am." And with that they seemed to be on good terms as Lateria begun reading through this questionably attained document, brow furrowing at it as she did so. "A murder in a Spaceport on Mars?" She asked, the Captain nodding. "Might I ask why this is important enough to break regulation for? Is there something I'm not seeing." Atheria nodded. "With all due respect, yes there is ma'am. The security footage of the area where the murder occured was scrambled with for the duration of the event. And upon an autopsy and investigation the victim appeared to be both a defector to House Skyre and to have been poisoned." Lateria nodded. "Interesting, although it may have just been an isolated incident. Defectors occur in baseline nations all the time."  "Of course ma'am but on the topic of Mars we have also picked up much more activity than we usually have along their religious lines of communication. Usually a sign of there being an important moral decision to be made. Something which Naval Intelligence believes we should be on the look-out for." Lateria agreed with a soft grunt. "Yes I agree, again, excellent work, Captain. Dismissed." Atheria nodded, another fist to her chest as she made her salute, clicked her booted heels and left. Leaving the Admiral to her view of the 22nd Fleet and countless shining stars.​</div></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The Femian First-Strike initiative had quickly collapsed as soon as the University and E.C.O. found out what was happening. They simply would not allow this; it was genocide of potentially billions. The labs were shut down, the scientists reprimanded, and the project removed from all records. However, a good amount of Femians had already been created, and it would be such a shame to waste them. Councillor-Admiral Honara briefed 40 of them on Kyslev Station. "You are all performing a great service to the Institute. Hopefully this mission won't be too risky, you won't be any positions where you're likely to be noticed, but the Hierarchy is a fascist shithole so who knows what they might find, even for low-downs like you. If you are caught, die knowing you have served your nation, having said not a word to betray us. Together, we can build a Zion, an Eden, an Elysium. All you need to do is study the dark and authoritarian ways of those like the Femians. Good luck!" The spies saluted the Councillor-Admiral and then filed into many different ships. These ships were stealthy, and they bore the symbols of known Femian corporations and organizations in case they were caught while delivering the agents. Upon arrival, the agents would be assuming the identities of the Femians they had been cloned from; as the DNA was 20 years old at the youngest this may not be possible and they may have to be homeless and beggars as cover. From there, Femian society and day-to-day life would be studied to build up the incomplete knowledge on that matter. <br>

"Where in the Prophet's name is he?" Agent Akus was impatient. Some Skyre traitor had contacted them with a very promising offer, but he had never shown up. The Institute had no quarrel with House Skyre, but it was always good to have insurance. Even friends could become foes. A gazelle rushed up to Akus. "Sir, the contact has been found dead. He was assassinated, by house Skyre most likely." "Damn it. I hope they don't try to use this against us... things are already tense as it is, with the anti-biological Venerians and the anti-diversity Femians. We need allies... contact E.C.O. I need to talk with them." Soon, the diplomatic powerhouse was on the line and heard Akus's proposal. Soon after, an offer of an alliance was sent to Sedna: offers of trade privileges and certain scientific breakthroughs in exchange for working together. <a href="/members/general-deth-glitch.17501/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="17501" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Offices of the Ministerium Artibai Peregrin<br>
Mars<br>
</b>​</div>The Ministerium Artibai Peregrin, or MAP, was the "Ministry for Foreign Diplomacy", a governmental organization loyal to the High Curator of House Skyre. They had embassies with most factions, even the Femians, although some of the embassies were only manned by a skeleton crew to signify relations were poor. <br>
<br>
House Skyre's embassy on Mars was well-staffed, not because the two states were diplomatically close, but because so much of interstellar affairs ran through Mars and it was necessary to have as many spies as possible on the Red Planet. The Ministerium Veilitas, or the "Veiled Ministry" was the Curatorai's spy and assassins agency, and was mixed thoroughly within the ranks of the Artibai Peregrin. <br>
<br>
The highest diplomat on Mars, Aurelius Typhon, was a seasoned diplomatic veteran. He was surprised when the phone on his desk began to glow as it was receiving a call, apparently from one of his superiors. He stood and walked to a nearby computer terminal to ensure that the communications uplink was encrypted, then he picked up the receiver. <br>
<br>
"Hello?" <br>
<br>
"Aurelius, this is Ptolemy." <br>
<br>
A bead of sweat collected on the diplomat's brow. "What do you want? You know better than to call me." <br>
<br>
"I know, my lord, but listen. Word is, the Institute's eggheads started some sort of research project and then immediately scrapped it. My head is turning in circles to figure out what it is. Damn. Where's that Mentat?" <br>
<br>
"He's offworld on errands, Ptolemy. Look, is that what you called to tell me?" <br>
<br>
"No, that's not all. I think there's a real chance of conflict between the Institute and the Femians. At least, I get the sense that they're scared shitless by the Hierarchy." <br>
<br>
"It would make sense. The premier military power of the Colonized 'Verse, and the Institute but a facsimile of Nero's Rome. Time is running out for the Institute, I fear. War will come. But we need to find out who will win, and thus consequently whose side we will join." <br>
<br>
"Petrarch thinks the project was a weaponized virus, like the one we think they hit Yerunik with back in '12, when that province was under out command." <br>
<br>
"We don't have any proof of that." <br>
<br>
"Still, it would make sense. I'll have Petrarch look deeper into the issue. We might look into convincing some of the government here to, well, reverse their decision about that bioweapon for the Femians." <br>
<br>
"I don't think Lord Skyre would want that. This one has spoken harshly of Dirty Matters before, especially biological weapons." <br>
<br>
"Yes, but I would rather House Skyre contend with these mad scientists than the awesome might of the Hierarchy." <br>
<br>
"You worry too much, Ptolemy. God will deliver us." <br>
<br>
"Christ helps those that help themselves." <br>
<br>
"Touché. Look, just return to an intelligence gathering stance. Don't draw too much attention to yourselves." <br>
<br>
"Will do, and boss, better to call the Ambassador and ask to hear about 'the unfortunate demise of Mr. Hensen'. They likely know that we made the hit, but if you pine over the traitorous wretch it will be plausible deniability." <br>
<br>
"Understood." <br>
<br>
"Peace be with you." <br>
<br>
"And also with you." <br>
<br>
A click, and Aurelius hung up the phone. Quickly he picked it up again and dialed up his counterpart, the Institute's deputy secretary of state. He told the ambassador that he would like to meet personally with him to ask about the investigation into their poor Aparatorai's death. After this was done, he hung up the phone for the last time. A petite secretary entered the room with a tea tray and set it out for him. He smiled blankly. <br>
<br>
"Grazi, Edna." He said, through slanted lips and the yellowed, crooked teeth of lifelong tea aficionado. He placed his lumps of sweetener in and reclined in his large leather chair, a day of worries still on the docket. He glanced out the window into the street as it started raining, the forms of antelopes and hyenas and every animal under the sun, plus humans flicked their umbrellas up as they walked. He scoffed and munched a biscuit worriedly. <br>

<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Radnitzky noticed the boggies redirecting their attention, and he didn’t like where this was going. They wouldn’t know what would come after if they lot loose a barrage of arrows. They’re tribal way of thinking made them too simple to understand what was even happening. To them, this was game. But some game will fight back. He needed some way to distract them.<br>
<br>
Radnitzky had a thought. He held up a piece of chocolate he (if that’s what it even was, anyway) he’d been saving for later. When he thought he might have had their attention, he tossed it over to a stretch of land above the water level. Maybe it would be enough to interest these tribals to keep them from trying to to take down their ride. Or maybe the boggies would carry on with their suicidal hunt.<br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">“LZ, we have a visual. Chicks closing in. Over.” A strong accent transmitted these words through the airways. None other than Sówka, of course. An experienced pilot, and a man who knows how to treat a VTOL properly. He was a personal favourite of the 1st Platoon. Mainly because one would be freed from the burden of actually walking if Sówka was coming your way.<br>
<br>
“Roger, Dash 1-2. Be advised, mutliple unknowns. Over.” The Staff Sergeant learned through the cockpit. He noticed that the people that needed extracting were surrounded by what could be potential hostiles “Roger. Out.” <br>
<br>
Now was the time to take a risk. Approaching a bunch of unknowns could lead to some unprecedented consequences, but the orders had already been issued. Sówka would just have to take that risk.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b><u>Atlus Spacey</u></b><br>
<b><u>ET(L) Sergeant A.Connors</u></b><br>
<b><u>Location: HMS Edelweiss Engineering Deck, Sub-Section B</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><i>"-arning. Lethal Radiation levels detected. Radiation medication required within the next 5 minutes. Nearest Medical station: 200 meters West. Warning. Lethal Radiation levels detected." </i>The automated voice from his arm mounted datapad finally awoke Sgt Adrian from his stupor. His memories were in a blur. There was a loud explosion, everything felt so warm. He attempted to move before feeling a sharp pain in his side. Reaching over, he could barely feel the pieces of shrapnel that penetrated his safety suit.<br>
<br>
".... shit..." Adrian grunted before baring with the pain to get up properly. He slowly staggared to his feet and managed to stand up for a moment before being forced to lean against a nearby wall for proper support. Gasping from exhaustion and pain, he tapped his datapad, silencing the warning message. A glance at the built in Geiger counter that showed the area to be bathed in almost 900 rads of radiation. He tapped his datapad again.<br>
<br>
"GLDYS, situation report...." Adrian weakly requested. The datapad beeped softly. </span><i><span style="font-size: 12px">"Warp engine: Non-functional. High levels of radiation detected in all sub-sections of Engineering and Hanger Bay 1. Radiation contamination has been contained into these areas. Decon required. Error: Decon systems offline."</span></i><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px">"At least the rad's not getting out... How about the rest of the ship...?" The datapad beeped. </span><i><span style="font-size: 12px"> "Multiple hull breaches detected. Severe atmospheric leak detected. Error: Automatic Sealant systems offline. Warning: Breathable atmospheric conditions rapidly deteriorating due to leaks. Air filtering systems offline. Please restart the system. Nearest command console: 300 meters East."</span></i><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px">"Damn... Better get a move on then..." Adrian grunted before slowly shuffling towards the command console. As he made his way past the dim hallways, his memory slowly returned to him. He remembered the warp engine heading into the red. The brief relief when they exited warp before it all went to hell. The last thing he remembered was shoving someone into an escape pod and slamming his hand down on the launch button. Still, it became clear that not everyone made it. There was the occasional body on the ground, their datapads sounding a long beep as it displayed a flatline. Adrian pushed that thought aside. Even if alone, he has to get those vital systems online.<br>
<br>
"GLDYS... How far to the command console....?"<br>
<br>
<i>"100 meters West. Warning: Vital signs failing. Significant radiation poisoning symptoms detected. Please head to the nearest Medical station: 400m East."</i> Adrian softly chuckled to himself. "No can do GLDYS... Set primary objective to the command console..."</span></span><br>
<i><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><br>
"Affirmative. Warning: Course of action will lead to a significant drop in survival chances." <br>
</span></span></i><br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"I know that... I've always been stubborn..." Adrian joked to nobody in particular. He felt his legs start to give out but he forced himself to push on. He softly hummed the Captain's favorite song to himself as a morale booster. Panzerlied. An old song from 20th Century Earth that became quite the hit with the German speaking soldiers. He himself never understood why they liked it but it did remind him of the launch day. There they were, 527 of the best and brightest naval crew, marines, pilots, and scientists the Principality had to offer. And in honor of Captain Gunther, they played Panzerlied before their first warp out of Atlus controlled space. Adrian even remembered what he was doing at that moment. He was fixing a broken music player after a prank went wrong. Of course he was pinned as the mastermind but he preferred tinkering over drinking anyway. <span style="font-size: 12px">That memory brought a smile to his face.</span><br>
<br>
<i>"Objective reached."</i> GLDYS' notification tugged him out of his reminisce and he went to work. Luckily, the console was intact and the backup generators had already kicked in. He could feel his vision begin to blur but he pressed on. He managed to bring the Automatic Sealant Systems and the Air Filtration Systems back online before he had a coughing fit. Hunched over the console, he coughed up blood over the keypad. <br>
<br>
<i>"Warning: Internal hemorrhaging detected."</i> <br>
<br>
"Not now, GLDYS... Almost.... There...! Ahaaa.... I... did.... it...." Adrian slumped over the console before collapsing onto the floor as the vents roared to life. <i>"All vital atmospheric and self-repair systems online. Decon systems online. Radiation contamination will be back to safe levels in 48 hours. Warning: User vitals are dropping."</i><br>
<br>
"Its fine GLDYS..." Adrian groaned as he slowly pushed himself towards the wall and managed to drag himself into a sitting position. His back on the wall for support. He weakly tugged on his pistol holster and freed his sidearm. <br>
<br>
<i>"Say GLDYS...</i> Do you think... I lived a good life...?" Adrian weakly inquired, flicking the safety off. <i>"Unknown query. User voice unclear."</i><br>
<br>
"Heh.... Guess I did...." He placed the pistol against his right temple. "S-Sieg... Atlus..."<br>
<br>
The gunshot echoed through the hallways of the Engineering Block.</span></span><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>----------------------------</b><br>
<b><u>Atlus Spacey</u></b><br>
<b><u>Commander Eirika Gunther</u></b><br>
<b><u>Location: HMS Edelwiess Bridge</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"Ugh.... Sound off if you're alive..." Eirika groaned as she stirred from her unconscious state. The groans and grunts from the various bridge crew indicated that she wasn't the only one who survived the crash. Satisfied with the responses she was getting, Eirika undid her straps and slowly rose from her seat. Taking a look around, she noted that the ship seems to be in one piece based on the sole fact that the bridge was receiving power from Engineering.</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><br>
"Alright... Status report." Eirika ordered, realizing that her cap was by her feet and bending down to pick it up. As she dusted the now crumpled cap, the Lead Engineer re-booted the bridge's computer. She heard the man curse under his breath as he toggled through the various systems they had left. <br>
</span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"Not good, Ma'am. All our lifters and thrusters got wrecked in the crash along with most of the ship's weapons. More than half the CIWSes, cannons and missile batteries are inoperable. Even those that work are not that great... Cannons 1 and 2 are only at half operational capabilities and the remaining CIWSes need to be manually operated to work. Missile batteries 4, 8, and 9 are all we have for missiles. Energy shields can be raised but the crash literally burned through most shield energy reserves." He reported. Eirika mused over the news. The ship is literally a sitting duck now with limited defensive capabilities. Still, there are other things to worry about.<br>
<br>
"How about hull integrity and atmosphere control?" Eirika asked. Stuck on an unknown planet, this ship may be the only place with safe air to breath. And if the hull is breached...<br>
<br>
"Ah! Good news! Someone in Engineering must have fired up the automated systems! The hull breaches are sealed and they even got the air filters up and running!" The bridge crew would have cheered at that news if they weren't so banged up while Eirika sighed in relief and quietly muttered a word of thanks. <br>
<br>
"Very well... Start an internal scan of the ship, I want our crew strength. Mira, get the internal communications systems back online before sending out a distress signal out to space. Hopefully our FTL communications made it too. Unver, Alicia, head down to the crew deck and check out the conditions there. If we don't have comms up within 5 minutes, one of you report back to me with a report."<br>
<br>
"Aye, Ma'am!" With that affirmation of her orders, the crew got to work before Eirika started pacing about. She occasionally glanced at her crew at work and couldn't help but feel a twinge of pride for them. They truly are showing the Atlusian Spirit by persevering onward despite not knowing if they are going to live to see home ever again. She silently thanked no one in particular for having such a dedicated crew under her command. Forget a twinge, she had all the right to feel proud about them.<br>
<br>
"Crew vital monitoring is up! .... Captain... You might want to see this...." Eirika rushed over to the crewman as he moved aside to let her see the screen. She felt a sense of relief at the mostly blue screen, indicating the presence of living crew on the ship. Then her eyes wandered over to Engineering. She gasped at the readout.<br>
<br>
"All... dead...? H-How can the entirety of Engineering be dead...? Are you sure this is correct....?" <br>
<br>
"Positive, Captain. We lost all of our Engineers and whoever was in Engineering at the time of the explosion. Although..." The crewman tapped a few buttons and the display changed to that of the ship's escape pod count. "13 escape pods were launched just before we breached the atmosphere. All of them are from the Engineering Deck."<br>
<br>
"Ah.... Das ist gud.... Once we get confirmation of their distress beacons, we'll launch a Search and Rescue party to pick them up."<br>
<br>
"Ma'am! Internal comms are back up! I also got the external cameras online and... Well... You.... might wanna see this yourself." Eirika quickly moved over to the Communications Officer's station. She took one look at the screen and froze.<br>
<br>
"...... Are those.... Lizards....?"<br>

"Shit what do we do?" she cursed under her breath, although, unneeded as she was in her armor. If they went in guns blazing the lizards wouldn't be a problem but the nobles back at base wouldn't be very happy about that. So instead they stood in the shadows locating any kind of air lock or any time of entrance, with Gwalter above she decided to use him as their short range radio satellite.<br>
 "Gwalter, have you established communications with the Altusians yet?"<br>
"No, ive been hailing them but it seems their comms are down, but i will remain vigilant"<br>
"Affirmative"<br>

As the Transport Containing the fourth born Reichenau snapped into real space above the Curatorium Capital it was immediately identified as a concordat vessel, as the pilot explained why they were there; Felicia was going over what she was there for and what she was going to do. House skyre had been the Orders main and reliable supplier of much needed raw materials for both their military, economy, and their civilian sectors. Where as House Skyre bought ready made goods from the Concordat to either be used by themselves or sold to other nations. Making trade between the two easier would be a huge boon for both nations and for her standing amongst the families of the order, and she would need that for whats to come. The ship was redirected to a landing pad and it settled down, Felicia, garbed in robes hiding much of her body with only her face really the only thing to be seen got up from her seat and walked to the hanger door as it slowly opened revealing the capital and home of house Skyre. If she was correct she was meeting the high minister.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Canticle, Philemon<br>
</b>​</div>The planet Philemon had a very curious ecology. From orbit, it looked like a round dirtclod with seas that seemed to shift colors in the light from dark blue to almost black. In orbit, large bulbous space stations and shipyards crowded the sky and large freighters crowded nearby a hypergate past the orbit of the planet's one moon, which glistened as sunlight reflected off of the glass, geodetic domes of its cities. Approaching the capital, they would have flown over a large stretch of countryside. The land was flat as a board for many miles and carved up like a quilt by a patchwork of mechanized farms. The closer they got, they could see great machines plowing the rich soil, or crowds of men pitching cotton, or hay or corn to be transported offworld for the herds of the colonies. Here and there, a forest of large and great-bowered trees rose between the farms and villages. A great banded highway, filled with large trucks and assorted automobiles, stretched across many horizons in a straight line to teach Canticle, which rose from the banks of the Sea of Tears, whose dark waters had murmured a billion years without the accompaniment of the great city. The sprawl of Canticle seemed to stretch out like a cephalopod gripping into the soil from every direction, such was the circumference of the metropolis, and it was bounded all around by an alabaster wall that separated it from the farmlands that fed it. <br>
<br>
The city itself was an assemblage of metal and stone buildings that towered high above the surrounding plains. The heavy clouds that always seemed to hang above the Philemon sky licked the tops of some of the buildings and buried some others, such was their height. The tallest building by far was the Cathedral of Light, which was a massive Gothic church that rose up from the center of the city and towered above all else. Other buildings that could be clearly seen, the tall spires of the Guild Headquarters of the Freighter's Guild, and the prodigious Dorian columns of the Library of Songs far to the eastern side of the city. The Palace, perhaps the smallest building of note, was a lower, more humble dwelling that could be observed on the western side of the city, near the sea. <br>
<br>
And finally, the shuttle touched down at an unremarkable spaceport. As Felicia Von Reichenlu disembarked from her transport she was assaulted by the sounds of the city: police sirens, hover-vehicle motors, horns, and over all the tolling of an iron bell as it marked the 3rd Hour, PM. It was close to dark. <br>
<br>
Meeting her at the platform was the Minister of the Aurum Ministerium, Edward Lobel. Lobel was a middle-aged fellow with Gallic features and a nice, respectable face. His uniform was a stylish grey suit and overcoat. The air was only around 60F but the wind blew consistently cold air off the Sea and made it feel much colder. The Curatorai straightened his dark reddish hair and approached her. <br>
<br>
"A solemn pleasure to make your acquaintance, your majesty." He said. He searched for her hands to see if he could find a ring to kiss, as was customary for dignitaries of her stature, but alas her hands were hidden in her robes so he put his hand across his chest and bowed low at the waist. <br>

Tempus Alterium was indeed busy however here it seemed the sky was choked in ships of all types. she started to walk toward him, two knights seemed like they were about to accompany her but a glace in their direction stopped them in their tracks "Your world is beautiful, High minister, will you be showing me around or shall we get to business at your estate?" Herself stopping a few feet away from him. She was tall for a person of the order, especially for someone who didn't seem to be wearing power armor like her knights.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Diplomatic Meeting<br>
</b>​</div>"Ah, an estate. You could call my dwelling that," he said with a coy grin. "Normally I would be obliged to give a tour, but in my country it is customary to attend to work before pleasure. Therefore, let us be off." <br>
<br>
He whirred on his heels and gestured for her to follow him and to climb into his motorcar, which was a large, steel-bodied black behemoth with a nuclear engine, about as big and luxurious as an old-fashioned Cadillac. Her escorts could follow her, but only if they exited their powered armor as they wouldn't fit inside the vehicle with their suits on. <br>
<br>
Driving down a wide boulevard, Felicia would probably notice that there was very light automobile traffic for such a large city. Two reasons were given for this. On the one hand, the city had both an extensive underground and elevated metro train system. On the other, the privilege of driving a car was a relative luxury. With fossil fuels being scarce, most vehicles had nuclear engines that, while more efficient than a simple electric motor, were not cheap. Aparatorai could be seen, however, riding bicycles, walking, or driving work trucks. Occasionally, they would see mounted policemen astride large horses, their electro-shock lances couched. They also passed lines of schoolchildren dressed in uniforms being escorted by nuns and processions of monks in sackcloth robes, usually humming a hymn in High Speak. <br>
<br>
Finally, they arrived at the Minister's apartment. He was right in saying that it was not an estate, as it had no land attached save a small courtyard garden, yet it was larger than most houses and in the middle of town, consisting of six or seven three-story buildings that had all been sewn together. The interior was lavishly decorated, with wood floors and tables of the native trees, plush leather chairs and couches, and wrought iron chandeliers. In one room was a large mahogany desk that had a computer terminal, a phone, and a mountain of papers and books piled upon it. The Minister invited her in and they were greeted immediately by his butler, a severe, thin-faced man with tufts of silver hair about the temples and nothing else. <br>
<br>
"Would you care for a drink, sir? Madam?" <br>
<br>
"I'll have a glass of merlot, Aristos." The Minister turned towards Felicia. "Will you have anything?" <br>

<b>Diplomatic Busniess</b><br>​</div>On the car ride Felicia was fascinated by architecture of this world, she personally wouldn't trade her home for it but it was interesting to say the least, simple, practical. It appeared their peasants were also as busy although it seemed they had much more time to waste. When they got to the Ministers apartment she wasn't very impressed at the outward appearance but she had guessed it would be something like this compared to all the other buildings she'd seen so far. The interior felt, warm, and homey, and she walked in bowing slightly to the servant looking about at the various nick-knacks and material that everything was made in as well as the piles of papers. "Your house is, very welcoming." She commented before the servant offered her and the minister some wine, glancing at the minister she asked. "What do you suggest minister?" She had her own prefered wines but she wanted to know how this man was like as well as how his people feel like. <br>

*Thwack* as a golf ball is hit with a club. "Fantastic shot Ingstrom. Maybe you will finally be able to match my record for this course." came the voice of House Master Gailian in response to the shot. "Right, because your matching me on all the other courses Taylor?" He replied. "Alright, well its my turn no-"<br>
"Sir, there's a message from the Solar Institute." a nearby House-servant interrupted.<br>
"I shall attend to politics once I have finished the course." Was the Trade masters unimpressed responce<br>
"Sir, they have offers of trade deals and potential science access." <br>
"Well why didn't you say so, what do they want in return?" He said before turning to Gailian, "Should only be a moment, you understand."<br>
"They didn't say, they merely stated that they wanted cooperation in return for, and I quote, 'Trade Privileges and Certain Scientific Breakthroughs.' With the political climate as it is, its likely w-" "war related, yes I know. However the Institute is a big market and their scientific advances certainly are not to be ignored... Who is the nearest Regional Executive?" "Jorge of House Lindvisk, New Blood Sir." "Of course, the Near Earth Region those slimy bastards got themselves running. I will not have this dealt with by Mud Bloods,Taylor would you be up for a meeting with the Solar Institute? I am afraid we would have to cut our game short but we can't trust Mud Bloods with a deal like this." <br>
"Ofcourse Jethro, I will keep your office updated. Tell Gaela and Julie that I'm asking after them." Was the response of Taylor Gailian, House Master of the Gailian Household and one of the Old bloods that supported Ingstrom becoming Trade Master after the Death of the last one. Without hesitation he set off as Ingstrom called after him "Shall do." Business was important and this business needed attending too. <br>
<br>
Gailian made his way to the docks and boarded his vessel, he had asked his son to meet him there so he could learn a bit about how to conduct such business. They set off and, after a courteous acknowledgement of the Regional Executive he hailed the Institute and made a course to dock in preparation for the meeting. <br>

He was about to turn back and face the stranger but the strange flying creatures scared the hunters for a while, they simply looked on as the things landed. They still kept their primitive spears up, and bows ready, but they didn't shoot yet, it seemed these creatures and the intruders were related.<br>
<br>
Veezkus and his hunters looked at the creatures and the intruders within them before hissing at them. At this point he just wanted to know who these things were, and why they where here.</span><br>​</div><a href="/members/axel-the-englishman.37472/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="37472" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

The fact that the creature didn't react to them seemed to make it more tense.

</div></div>A small(ish) wormhole appeared near Venus's side that was facing the sun as three ships; a Crusier acting as transport and two frigates, slowly came out of it, at speeds that wouldn't leave much of a footnote on any sensors other than Venus's. Sighing Larissa cursed under her breath, she was tasked with establishing relations and trade with the people on venus, word has it that they weren't heretics like their neighbors on mars. Why her? Irisviellya was busy as always, Felicia was in Curatorium territories to gain favor for herself, Ägidius was busy with internal affairs and management, Bastian was off doing whatever he usually does leaving her, the youngest at age 20. She looked at the screen which was showing the planet of Venus, it was strange knowing they were in the solar system that is the birthplace of humanity and that Venus was the sister planet. She looked around at her escorts, Knights, trustworthy but ridged, She wondered if Iris grew up like them, she knew that Iris was a paladin before everything happened... Back when everything was studying about politics and governance.<br>
<br>
Captain Safrax of the Maiden's shield was immediately hailed by the Venerian's below as his ship exited the wormhole, slow was the ships were going to mask their signatures in space he was quite surprised at the response time although they werent exactly attempting to hide from<i> them</i> as they were simply coming to essentially say hello. "This is Captian Safrax of this escort fleet." He assumed they got the message that they were coming, a message sent by an envoy days earlier. "We are preparing a transport to send our ambassador down to your planet soon, what say you?" He leaned back on his captains chair awaiting their response, glancing at the sensors occasionally, he didn't like being this nearby to heretics. Especially not with <i>the</i> princess onboard with only two frigates to escort his crusier.<br>

"I would recommend the Indi Sangiovese," Minister Lobel said. <br>
<br>
"Ah, excellent choice." The servant replied before wheeling swiftly on his heels and descending a set of stairs into the cellar. The Minister led them to his study, which was apart from the rest of the house. The room was hung with portraits of dead ancestors and the western wall was covered by a bookshelf filled with classics such as Paradise Lost, The Canterbury Tales, The Song of Roland, the Illiad, the Odyssey, the Aeniad, as well as other more contemporary books such as "Thomism in the 28th Century" and "Scientism and Its Fruits". <br>
<br>
They were seated in two leather chairs by a fireplace. There was still some flame below the mantle, but the fire was quickly going on. The material that was being burned was some sort of synthetic coal shaped into logs that gave the impression of a real fire and gave off the aroma of burning pine. <br>
<br>
In short order, the servant returned with their glasses and two bottles of wine. The merlot was poured into his glass and a similar red wine into hers. The label on the bottle read "Epsilon Indi Sauvignon, 2680." <br>
<br>
"So," he began when the wine was passed out and the servant had taken his stance by the door, "I suppose now is time for business." He took a deep breath and reclined in his chair. <br>

<b>Diplomatic Busniess</b></b>​</div><br>
"hm, an interesting choice minster."<br>
 Felicia was busy over watching the servant disappear downstairs until a shelf of books caught her attention, such ancient books, some of them she didn't recognize. There was a moment of pause before she continued to follow the minister to a fireplace where she sat down in a admittedly comfortable chair. <br>
"Ah, yes, i almost forgot why i was here for." <br>
She leaned over to pick up her glass of wine, her metallic hand finally being shown as there was a tiny "tink" sound when they contacted the glass.<br>
 "I am where to establish a treaty which would make our nations trade go much more smoothly, less restrictions, more secure trade routes and the like." She took a sip of the wine before continuing.<br>
<br>
 "Also, we've been hearing whispers here and there about a few certain nations that we would label our neighbors getting into scuffles." <br>
And although my sister would relish the idea of war being triggered by others i would like to keep the peace.<br>
 "We are concerned but as you know our ability to listen to galactic matters is, sparse at best." she internally sighed, thats the thing about these meetings without their ruler, the person you are talking to wouldn't know all the details.<br>
 "if trouble were to break out we'd like to be sure of the Curatorium to keep trading their raw materials to us, there are few trading partners if any with as many resources as yours, wars disrupt trade, and we do not want that to happen"<br>

<span style="font-size: 15px">Sówka circled the ground unit for a bit, maintaining a watchful eye upon the unidentified forces that had them surrounded with a formation that exclaimed "ambush" up to the very skies the Staff sailed. He awaited a sign indicating for him to land, or for him to engage those on the ground. At the height of the confrontation's climax, where the leader of the ground unit appeared to waste valuable goods with absolute disregard, these unknown creatures turned their backs and shunned Sówka. He took it as his cue to land.</span></span>​</div><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">The Staff conducted his descent in the exact manner his training dictated him to do so. He extended the landing gear with his approach. With his landing, the shuttle was barely submerged in a layer of water. Though, water should never be this viscous. <br>
<br>
The Staff watched on as the ground unity approached his craft. He wasn't sure what these potential targets were up to, but he was just as prepared to tack action as much as they were.<br>
<br>

As they approached, the aerial unit separated, moving in to cover a different area each around the remains. Ethan took the position that yielded the most visible activity. A gathering of some sort, but not carried out by the surviving crew. They appeared to be natives, confused by the scenario that had just ensued.</span><br>
<br>
Bailey decreased his altitude to obtain a better view. Whoever these lot were, they didn't appear to be the friendly sort. "Smit." Bailey barked informally over his craft's communications. "I got visual of multiple unknowns surrounding the crash site. Looks like wildlife. Need ya to scare 'em off."<br>
<br>
One of the craft's weapons lined up in the direction of the infested ground. Soon, a volley of dispensed ammunition was unleashed, smacking the surface around the crowd as a means of sending them away. Bailey maintained a motion of circling the crowd to provide his crewmate with the best shot possible.<br>

<br>
/&gt;"FSS Hangar 20 Command, this is Thero-class Transport Shuttle, callsign G.A Prime requesting permission to dock in Hangar 20-AB, over."&lt;/ The imposing black spacecraft called in to one of many countless hangar entrances located around the Femian State Shipyards, a vast industrial ring of technology and construction that spanned around the entirety of the densely populated colony world of Kara Māte located deep within Femian space. These shipyards, being well hidden by the Hierarchy for reasons of state security being the largest of their kind in Civilized Space and for good reason as the Naval Corps would have one believe. The Thero-class shuttle itself despite its impressive size and design being rather sparcely populated within with only its two pilots and one passenger on-board. This being the case mainly due to the fact that the shuttle belonged solely to Grand Admiral Maye Aria. A member of the Board of Naval Superiors and one of the highest ranking officers in not just the Naval Corps but the entirety of the Hierarchy's Armed Forces. She was a rather young looking woman with dark brown hair, a request made to Elysium by her parents as dark brown was their preferred color, she wore a white upper uniform with black pants and gold accents emblazened on the side. A pure white cape clipped onto the back of her uniform that now sat draped behind her. The Grand Admiral staring out the window of her shuttle to see what could only be described as the usual sight above Kara Māte. The construction of yet another Destructor-class Super Battledestroyer, a ship so large it made even the already colossal sized Conquerer-class Battledestroyers look like small fleas in comparison.<br>
<br>
Suddenly being taken away from her viewing pleasure of the orbital Shipyards, Aria was brought back into the present by the sound of the ship's intercom speaking up again. /&gt;"Affirmative, G.A Prime, this is FSS Hangar 20 Command. Requesting your docking code, over."&lt;/ And with that, Aria could see the two black-uniformed pilots at the front of the shuttle tap away at the consoles in-front of them as they replied. /&gt;"Roger, FSS Hangar 20 Command. Sending you the docking codes now, over."&lt;/ A small pause interrupting the fluent conversation between the two sides before one of the consoles in the cockpit of the shuttle had a small circular screen on it turn bright green, indicating that the docking codes had been accepted and their access to the Hangar had been granted. The Hangar Command ending the conversation with, /&gt;"G.A Prime your docking codes are all clear and access has been granted to Hangar 20-AB, fly safe now, out."&lt;/ And with that, all went quiet once more however for a longer period of time as the shuttle approached one of countless thousands of hangar entrances, the ship's harsh black matter phasing through the protective field of the hangar entrance without any difficulty as it deployed its landing gear and settled down onto the flat surface of the hangar's interior. Grand Admiral Aria getting up from her seat and patting her uniform down as she fixed on her regulation cap and stepped out of the now open side-door of her shuttle, a ramp deploying for her to step down due to the height of the Thero-class shuttle. The first thing of notice for the Grand Admiral being the two long lines of Naval Corps infantrywomen, deck crew and officers awaiting her arrival along with Admiral. Kara Xatia at the forefront of the welcoming party, Xatia being the commanding officer of the Femian State Shipyards' stationed defensive forces. An important job, and one that had been given to the small, blonde-haired woman due to the merits of her past service to the Hierarchy.<br>
<br>
Black shiny boots tapping against the metallic surface of the ramp, the Grand Admiral gave an acknowledging nod to her subordinate officer as Xatia saluted in return, waiting for the Grand Admiral to walk past her--which she did before following at least one step behind, a uniquely Femian custom to show both an acknowledgement of the other person's higher ranking and as a sign of respect. The Admiral speaking up as the two walked the length of the incredibly large hangar, surrounded by lines of Marines and officers on either side, "Grand Admiral, ma'am. It is quite the honor to have you at the Shipyards. Although I must say that if you're here because of--" She was interrupted by her superior with that added on remark. "Admiral Xatia, you were chosen to defend these Shipyards and to ensure that they were running at peak effiency not because of your ability to make excuses and to grovel but because of your ability to produce results. Please do not offend my intellect by giving me the impression that I made the wrong choice when I proposed you for the job." Grand Admiral Aria warned with a brief but telling look towards her subordinate, who nodded meekly and continued. "Sorry, ma'am. Its just that the Board of Naval Superiors has been very persistent in their demands for Project Stellar's completion to be sped up. And I have to tell you, Grand Admiral that their demands are completely unattainable, they're giving me an impossible goal. If I had more women then yes maybe but I'm understaffed to be honest with you, ma'am." Xatia swallowed what felt like a rock with that, knowing that it wasn't the wisest decision to be so open about one's reservations when it came to the Board of Naval Superiors but knowing that it had to be done regardless.<br>
<br>
The pair of high-ranking officers stopped in their tracks near the end of the hangar, just meters from the pair of automatic doors that would take them towards a series of elevators. The first one to stop being the Grand Admiral who was followed swiftly by Xatia, the lower-ranking of the two looking up at her taller superior in a mixture of fear and curiosity as Aria seemingly pondered on her response before delivering it. "How many more women do you need, Admiral?" She finally asked after what felt like forever to the Admiral in question, who played with her black leather gloves out of habit as she gave her own response. "At least a few thousand more, maybe even ten. If you want Project Stellar completed on the Board's requested timetable that is." Aria raised her brow. "Thousands more?" She asked, almost in disbelief. "Ma'am, you have to understand my situation here. This Project is something that has never been done before, its almost ridiculously huge in scale and is incredibly taxing on even the vast resources of these Shipyards, I need all of the support I can get from the Board if they want this Project completed on time. And given the current state of tensions in Civilized Space I would hope that they would be willing to provide me with this support." Aria nodded slowly, rubbing her chin in contemplation. "I believe I may have a grip on how this must be for you, Admiral." She let out a breath. "Very well, I will arrange a call with the Board and deliver to them your requests. However, in return I only expect that Stellar be completed, the Supreme Empress herself is very keen to see it. As is Grand Admiral Krenn."<br>
<br>
With that, the two exchanged courteous smiles, a handshake and a departing nod before leaving one another's company, with the Admiral returning to her quarters to begin filing a list of requests for the Board and with the Grand Admiral travelling to the Officer's Observation Deck at the top of Hangar 20's command structure, now being accompanied by a squad of Terror Troopers for necessary protection as she folded her arms and looked out towards what was known to those within the Hierarchy's upper echelons as Project Stellar. Her piercing blue eyes squinting as two F/H NER fightercraft sped past on one of their usual patrols no doubt, focusing on the huge and numerous Conquerer-class Battledestroyers that made up the majority of the Shipyards' defense fleet and then of course the Destructor-class Super Battledestroyers, the largest ships of their kind anywhere, though these ones unlike their already active sister ships were still in the midst of being constructed however even these record-breaking ships were dwarved by the still yet to be completed Stellar. Even the Grand Admiral almost being taken aback by the sheer scale of it as the realization of just how badly Admiral Xatia must have needed those extra personnel and resources when put face to face with the task the young Admiral had been given. Turning around to one of her Terror Trooper escorts as she said. "Call Admiral Xatia, tell her I must see her." The fiercesome black-armored trooper nodding in response.​</div></div>

<br>
The space around Venus was one with little slow moving traffic. Its location in the sacred system and proximity to the cradle of the institute left it undesirable for idle craft and the reclusive nature of its inhabitants gave little reason for large scale tourism. Cargo vessels were the most common types of vehicles that darted back and forth within the system, locking into the docking rings to be refuelled and guided to the surface for deliveries.<br>
Such was true of today, until the signatures burst around the quiet planet. Too large in size to be mere unannounced traders and much too close to be Institute vessels. The institute and foundling had come to comfortable terms where neither would interfere with the other in aspects beyond business. Whenever the mariners could, they'd overlook the activities and motions of the Institute navy in exchange for a similar liberty. <br>
<br>
The archons were jolted into full alert. Minerva's influence guides a set of destroyers from their routine positions in the space around Venus across to the micro fleet, taking with them a total of 12 blue crows from the surface. They couldn't afford to take any risks when it came to damages upon the planet. They only had one and two desecrated planets within the sacred system was something none of the faithful could risk seeing.<br>
Minerva herself was unable to attend this meeting as her vessel, the Blue Raven, was in orbit of holy Terra. Drones and recon lances had been deployed all over the planet to assess the atmosphere and study what remained of it. To abandon the drones and equipment would be much too expensive for a simple flex of security. Something the destroyers could handle easily.<br>
<br>
The archons send transmissions to the micro fleet as soon as they can, having already consulted with one another in only seconds. Dianna was responsible for responding to these outsiders, as was she responsible for communing with all off worlders. It was easier to cure corruption if only one archon had to take the risk.<br>
"<i>Attention Captain Safrax of the unidentified escort fleet, please have your ambassador dock with one of our rings. As is standard of all official entries to planet surface, I will recite the following information for your benefit. No official party ambassador is entitled to have an accompanying force larger than eight men. No official parties may be allowed entry if they feel either ill or 'under the weather'. Official parties are allowed to enter with weapons, but ammunition for said weapons is prohibited. No official party is entitled to celebratory weapon usage while on Venus. No official party is entitled to enter the planet for longer than 6 hours without a medical examination. No official vessel may guide itself in and out of entry. No official vessel is allowed to have weapons above the standard debris clearing calibre. Please see the official documentation for weapon calibres and what is classified as debris clearing for further clarity regarding the topic. No official vessel can refuse a physical inspection once making contact with the surface.</i><br>
<i>For safety protocols we request you disable all weapons systems present and that all AI aboard your ships not entering the planet are placed on standby or rendered inactive until negotiations are complete. If your ship is incapable of running without an AI, we'd be honoured to attempt an echo link until leaving the Sol system.</i>"<br>
<br>
<u>Doctor Alexandyr Jarilov, Outpost 21-c, Venus</u><br>
<br>
"<i>Good morning, doctor. Are you feeling alright?</i>"<br>
Alexandyr staggered from his bed to the door, placing a hand upon the frame of the room's doors as they finished opening. He'd been awake for hours in bed but hiding beneath the sheets like a log trying to fall back asleep doesn't do much for the muscles of the clumsy, or the drinkers. Unfortunately for Alexandyr, he was both. He presses his forehead against the frame as the door makes a soft clicking sound indicating it was done opening.<br>
"I'm fuckin' peachy, Miranda. Never better." The doctor's head pulses with the throbs of a hangover and dehydration. His skull was splitting and the one thing in the world he wanted more than a partner was a glass of water. He exits his quarters into the spotless corridors of the facility and runs a hand along the tinted glass of the tubular corridor's scenic side trying to find his study. The facility was on the larger side but he only used a handful of rooms there.<br>
<br>
"<i>You don't appear to be 'peachy', doctor. Did you drink too much last night.</i>" He finds his office and walks towards it, the door already opened. Inside upon his desk was a glass of water and a tube of dissolvable vitamin supplements. Miranda had already prepared his work for him to continue the moment he woke. He makes his way towards the chair at his desk and places two of the triangle shaped supplements into the drink. They fizz for a moment before turning the drink green in colour and shrinking rapidly into fine grit on the bottom of the glass.<br>
"I think we both know the answer to that one."<br>
He takes a pen from the desk and places the back end of it into the drink, stirring the solution around to help remove the last bits of grit. Once he'd assumed they were gone, he placed the drink to his lips and took a sip. It was minty in flavour and the smell was overwhelmingly strong. He takes a few heavy blinks before having more of the drink, beginning to scull it down. The speakers in his office crackle for a moment as if Miranda were clearing her throat.<br>
Alexandyr slows his pace. He takes slow and steady amounts of the drink into his mouth and exaggerates the swallowing motions to appease the archon. He never understood why she was programmed to have human-like desires or why she was so obsessed with watching people do normal every day things. It made him uneasy at times.<br>
<br>
Once finished with his drink he rises from his chair and leaves for the bathroom. It was a place he often hoped for privacy but given certain offhanded comments made by Miranda during idle conversation, he suspected she monitored that room too. He finishes relatively quickly and makes quick with washing his hands. Once done he leaves the room and returns to his desk staring at all of his research. Very little of it made sense to his throbbing mind. It was written in personalised slang and some of it didn't appear to even be a human language. "Who'd have thought growing organic droids would be such a task."<br>
"<i>Shall I acquire the list of members who advised against this course of action?</i>" He waves his hand in the air with a smile across his face. "That one was rhetorical." he goes quiet to look over the notes and theories that had all fallen through with his research. Even with the assistance of what information he could procure from the institute it wasn't enough and very little of it made sense to him. It was as if they were speaking an entirely different language. "I don't get any of it anymore. I thought we were onto something during winter but now," He looks out towards the open door. "I just can't go on like this. I get so close and then it slips away or it starts off promising and it turns into a total mess. You remember t-72-p1."<br>
"<i>An intriguing specimen indeed.</i>"<br>
"Intriguing? That thing'll give me nightmares until the day I die."<br>
"<i>Perhaps you should consider opening a line of communications with the femians. Their impure genetics and capability of selective child construction could provide us with the canvas you need.</i>" Alexandyr begins to laugh at the idea leaning back in his chair with a look of disbelief growing upon his face. "Please. If I wanted to talk to impure lesbians I'd open a line with the institute's porn industry. They probably know about as much regarding biology too."</span></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Larissa Von Reichenau, Captian Safrax Sol, Venus.</b>​</div><br>
Safrax listened to the warnings with great care, he did not want to risk a diplomatic incident especially when said incident started with his commandment and especially with a princess on-board. "Put the Ai's on standby, weapons to manual fire and set to standby, forward the message to the princess and frigates." These venerians are, picky with what they want it seems, as long as it was within reason he was okay with it, and as long as the princess was okay with it will the plan go. Leaning back on his chair he sighed as he saw his crew talk to one another giving out his orders and the on-board ship ai giving him some passive readings about the planet, it was on 'standby' as it was connected to anything, yet, but it is still operational and able to do a few things without getting spotted by a sensor or anything of the such. apparently the world below seemed to be filled with life signs and not just buildings like he previously thought.<br>
<br>
Larissia was reading the message was she was walking towards the transport in the small hanger of the Maiden's shield, with an expression only a mother would love, she cursed out loud. The eight Templar behind her looked at each other and tried to calm her down, but they got a data-pad thrown at their faces as she stormed into the transport ship. Her opinion of these people were dropping like a stone next to a neutron star that's about to get swallowed up by a black hole. "what is wrong with these people?! This is how they treat the first contacting of another?!" She sat down arms crossed annoyed and angry at these 'Venerians' Perhaps it was a ruse by the Heretics of Mars? An ambush to kidnap her? "it appears to be a show of order princess" one of her bodyguards gave his opinion, sighing she calmed herself down, it was time for work. <br>
<br>
The transport was soon sealed with their precious passengers on-board and flew out of the hanger the atmospheric shield giving little resistance as it left. Larissia gripped her sword tight in a mix of emotions, she both wanted things to go smoothly, peace and informational trade deals. Or for things to go wrong so she can kill whoever made that message. The transport stayed beside the cruiser for a while until it was clear for it to go to one of the planet's 'rings.' She could see the planet with her own two eyes and make vague outlines of buildings. "Seems like a standard planet to me" but the view was soon blocked as the ship docked onto a ring and she with her escorts got up from their seats and waited for the hanger door to open.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Whispering Sagebrush was one of the higher-ranking officials of the Department of Commerce and Contact, working directly with other nations and assisting the High Council regularly. She was a female mars-adapted human, and like nearly everyone in the Institute she was genetically crafted to be near-perfect, though since perfection was subjective you couldn't satisfy everyone. She had just been informed House Skyre had something they wanted to talk about, and she was willing to bet it had something to do with that botched exchange that people were talking about, some screw-up in the espionage department. If they couldn't even talk with a contact she doubted that that bureaucratic mess could infiltrate the Femians, but she had been surprised before by seemingly useless government messes. Speaking of seemingly useless government messes, the Department of Commerce and Contact had met up and decided she would be the one to communicate with House Skyre.<br>
<br>
Sagebrush turned on her holochip, projecting her face and voice through space and time. "Whispering Sagebrush, Master of Contact of the Department of Commerce and Contact of the Solar Institute, contacting a representative of House Skyre? We are ready for communications." Despite the fact that a physical representative was here, Sagebrush had to do this meeting remotely because the representative had baseline environmental needs while she was Mars-adapted.<br>

As the ship docked, a Councillor from the Wide Council of the Solar Institute greeted the trader. "Welcome to Cork Station." The surroundings were similar to a dark temperate forest, thick trees shading from the artificial sunlight above. "We believe our two nations can work together. We are willing to loosen restrictions on your traders and share several of our more secret medical advancements in exchange for an official, public alliance."<br>

Deep, deep in space, in the cracks between Femian systems, several disguised ships drifted through the endless night. "Alright ladies, one more quick rundown: these ships are designed in every way to look like ships from known Femian dissidents; anti-authoritarian groups and all that. If you get spotted, don't try to escape. Engage and try to get shot down. If for any reason you are still caught, a bionano payload located within your body will activate and infect you and cause a definite fatal heart attack, plus cause enough brain damage that even if they do revive you you won't be able to tell them anything. However, let's focus in the optimist side, what happens if you aren't caught. You'll be crash-landing on various femian planets in the wilderness. However, you will survive. Your biological enhancements should allow you to run into the wilds before anyone investigates. If not... well, we discussed what happens if not. Once you are in the clear, you need to find your genetic match, who should be in a settlement near your crash site. Now comes the dirty work: you need to assassinate your match and take over their lives. Keep in mind all our genetic info and personal life data on your matches is 20 years out of date, so your match may have moved, died, or something else, in which case you send us what little data you have and retreat back into the wilderness until further notice. If you're caught by authorities, the death payload will activate, but we'll try to rescue you, however be aware it may be impossible in some or most situations. But, if you manage to get through all of that without getting caught or something going wrong, congrats, you're a Femian citizen. Live your match's life and simply report on what life and culture is like. Also attempt to gather more profiles and genetic data, we might want to do this again in the future. LET'S GO!"<br>
<br>
The ships separated and flew into many different systems. 7-D's ship warped to a remote garden world, fairly populated but not overly so. Below her and rapidly approaching was the forest world she was meant to land on. Down, down, down, until it broke through the atmosphere's fiery cocoon and slammed into the ground. 7-D's support mechanisms saved her and she leaped out of the ship and ran as fast as she could, into a thick pine forest. She hoped to the All-Mind that she could make it away and serve the Institute.<br>

Regardless of the compliance from the micro fleet, Minerva still controls the destroyers and demands their presence. These ships idle near by with their weapons ready and waiting to fire if needed. They were always defensive over new forces arriving at Venus and the destroyers were there to defend Venus as much as they were to defend the new fleet. If these people had hostilities with the institute or the trader's guild, they wouldn't allow them to be fired upon.<br>
<br>
The docking ring clamps onto the ship tight, making sure it couldn't escape prematurely unless it was willing to try and jump with the ring still connected. Its sensors scan the ship from top to bottom as best they can, taking note of every little hull detail and the information regarding its ship model and registration. Once complete the ship is identified as having an AI on board. The ring begins to send a 'submission' signal and Dianna begins an echo link.<br>
The AI aboard attempts to fight the link but due to the nature of the rings, fails almost instantly. Dianna takes control of the ship and addresses the crew to inform them of what was happening. It had happened in times before that crews often grew worried of their ship being puppeted or controlled by an AI other than their own.<br>
<br>
Dianna utilises the holo-projection unit within the ship to produce an image of what she wants to look like out to the crew. The small woman who comes from the unit appears as most AIs do with an underlying green hue that stands out amongst the paler parts of her projection. She stands with a long flowing dress and a halo of leaves upon her head. Her hands are clasped together in front of her and her head is bowed towards the floor, revealing her projected hair to be done up in a twisted crown braid.<br>
"<i>Welcome to Venus, ambassador Larissia. You'll find that everything is ready and waiting for your arrival at our capital facility. If you're concerned about your ship AI don't panic, he's still here. He's just having a nap. Might I ask how you're all feeling today? Is there anyway that we could make your approach to the surface one more enjoyable?</i>" Her voice was smooth and came through every speaker within the ship.

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Office of the Foreign Diplomatic Ministry<br>
Mars<br>
</b>​</div>It wasn't long after Aurelius Typhon had placed his call to his Institute counterpart that the hail came in over their hyperlink comms. For the purposes of accomodating Martian ministers who could not appear in person, the High Minister's office was outfitted with several state-of-the-art holographic projectors. The facsimile was really quite uncanny, and it much pleased the minister as he preferred personal meetings and this was as close as some of his Institute colleagues could manage. Inserting her holochip, the Institute diplomat's likeness was reconstructed for the minister in his office and visual and auditory information was broadcast back to her own computer from cameras and microphones in the office placed especially for the purpose. <br>
<br>
Aurelius Typhon was a middle-aged man with streaks of silver in his light brown hair about the temples, a straight-edged face clean-shaven and hawkish, and a burgundy suit and black tie. Behind him stood a thin, older man who was bald save for tufts of white hair above his ears, who wore a stylish black and white suit, and whose most notable feature was his unnaturally iridescent blue eyes. He was a Mentat, one of the Curatorium's human supercomputers, studying the reconstruction of her likeness for every facial tick, every thought that flickered across her face. Even through a computer screen, his intellect seemed to permeate the room in the unnatural way that androids and supercomputers do not. <br>
<br>
"Hello, ma'am." Typhon said, lowering the tea cup from his lips. "Sorry to trouble you today, but it has come to my attention that a mister," he picked up a paper, studied it, then put it back down, "Alvin Hensen was found dead this morning." <br>

/&gt;"FEO-992. Report immediately."&lt;/<br>
<br>
/&gt;"FEO-990A. FEO-992 reporting in, apologies for the delay, confirmation on civil disturbance in specified Sector and Grid. Requesting permission to investigate."&lt;/<br>
/&gt;"FEO-992, FEO-990A. Permission granted on request to investigate, Sector Commander wants that crash site surrounded within the next ten Michi."&lt;/<br>
/&gt;"FEO-990A, FEO-992 recieving order. Will approach crash site on FGV-88 Speedbikes for maximum time effiency, expect to arrive within the next ten Michi."&lt;/<br>
<br>
The usual tranquility of the Weylaran forest was soon after interrupted by the sound of fast-moving speedbikes zooming past with an Enforcement Officer riding on each of the total six bikes as they flew in-between and around the towering goliaths that were the native Weylari Big Trees, the bikes' non-reliance on wheels allowing for much faster travelling without needing to worry about getting bogged down in the thick local flora as they rapidly approached the crash site of what had appeared to be a Defiant-marked spacecraft, albeit an incredibly old model and design, the ship having been tracked by local Naval stations upon its arrival in the system to this relatively remote location. With Femian Enforcement rapidly descending upon the crash site from multiple directions as the towering pillar of smoke was now being clearly seen by the Officers in their slightly out-of-date Femian military armor, as they were essentially a police force after all and not the actual armed forces--who as one could expect did recieve all the latest equipment first. Squad Commander. Iana Tuva's helmet goggles zooming in on the crashed spacecraft as she was the first one to approach, her speedbike pulling up to a halt by a gathering of smaller trees as she hopped off of her hovering vehicle, white boots hitting the ground as she raised her rifle cautiously. Eyes skimming around her surroundings as she begun to make her approach on foot to the Defiant space shuttle, the rest of her squad arriving and following her in quickly after.<br>
<br>
"Ma'am, the shuttle appears to be empty." Her Second-in-Command, Squad Sub-Commander. Eyva Antana called out from within the shuttle after a few more moments, the other members of the squad having taken up positions around the shuttle to ensure that they weren't about to be caught in an ambush as their two leaders checked out the crashed object itself. "Alright, Antana. I want that shuttle's Blackbox taken apart as soon as possible and the SPS scanned inside and out. If anything's been tampered with I want to know, understood?" She questioned, knowing the answer however as her Sub-Commander nodded and replied, "Yes Ma'am." before disappearing back inside the shuttle to begin with her work. Squad Commander Tuva tapping the side of her helmet as she reopened her link with her Civil Platoon Commander, holding her FWD-11E by her side as the sound of her superior's voice came in once more. The only other sounds nearby being the local ambience of the forest around the Squad Commander and the sound of her Second inside the shuttle messing around with its interior, attempting to find anything out of place as she done so. <br>
<br>
/&gt;"FEO-992, FEO-990A. What is the status of the Defiant shuttle?"&lt;/ Her superior asked, a tone of impatience clear as she done so.<br>
/&gt;"FEO-990A, FEO-992. Defiant shuttle has crashed and suspect has fled from the crash site, there's no sign of her so far but we shall begin a scan of the area immediately."&lt;/ <br>
/&gt;"FEO-992, FEO-990A. Affirmative, make it quick, Sector Commander requests an immediate update and resolution on and to the situation respectively."&lt;/<br>
/&gt;"FEO-990A, FEO-992. Roger, will commence a search pattern immediately and will detain Defiant suspect on sight."&lt;/<br>
<br>
"Officers, commence search pattern SSP-3 Catheena. Detain suspect on sight, if suspect resists deadly force is permitted." Tuva called out to her squad as the other armored officers nodded and hopped back onto their speedbikes, racing forward in multiple directions as other officers now approached from other squads to take the prior one's place in safeguarding the crashed shuttle until a proper investigation team could arrive to conduct a more thorough check. Across the Sector, Enforcement squads were put on a higher readiness level and public alerts were put out to the surrounding rural communities to look out for suspicious activity as there was a suspected Defiant spy lurking in the area and multiple shuttles were launched from the nearest Civil Defense Precinct to begin scanning the large forests surrounding these rural communities for any humanoid lifeforms. To outsiders it may have seemed like a bit of an overreaction, but this was merely an act of standard Femian protocol when it came to potential threats to the Hierarchy and its people's security.<br>

"Cork Station"</b><br>
Gailian and his son found themselves in a forest. As they entered, flanked by Trade Forces and with his personal servant to his left, they were greeted by someone who appeared to be dressed as one of their Councillors. The person made no introduction and go straight to the point. While Gailian found it refreshing he was annoyed as he knew it would be useless education for his son. Not that he really liked the current terms. "Sorry, Alliance? That's a word that can mean lots of different things. Personally I don't see how such an alliance is of any benefit to us. You have bad relations with a number of good clients and an official alliance will close those markets to us. While loosened restrictions and access to profitable technology is a fantastic offer I cant see it covering the profits lost to those markets." He then thought to himself '<i>Cork Station and a giant forest and they call us wastrels. Damn Techno Hippies are far too big of a market to piss off.' </i>before adding "I really hope we can come to a better arrangement. You are good friends of the Solar Trade Alliance and we wish to ensure friendly relations continue. Perhaps we can come to another agreement to do with bringing our nations closer. Perhaps a special deal where we reduce our prices to your traders in return for lower tariffs or perhaps we attribute a small number of our forces to ensuring your trade is protected within the system.

<b>Femian Regional Office</b><br>
A well dressed woman in a suit was talking to a small display on her wall "Understood, I shall try to arrange a diplomatic meeting. Its been a while since one of their representatives came to talk with us and its about time I touched base with them anyway. I will keep you informed of proceedings". After she ended the communication she stood up from where she was sitting, ensured she looked presentable enough for diplomatic talks and then headed out into the large buildings foyer. She swiftly walked from one side to the other, passing many people who were on break from their jobs managing the many small deals that were continuously happening throughout Femian space, while they may be incredibly secretive and restrictive people, they still needed supplies.She then entered the office of her head sales person. "Ah, Executive. How may I assist House Pearlman today?" he immediately chimed. "Send a message to the Femians, I wish to discuss possible trade deals. Inform them that we have large amounts of raw materials, weapons, circuitry and other technological goods and feel that what we have to offer could be a great benefit to the Femian government. Make sure to add all those diplomatic things that you do when your dealing with politics and not sales, you know the kind." "Of course Executive" he replied "I also wish for it to be delivered by hand." she finished, which made him a little lost for words. "Bu... well.. would it... would it not be more effective to send it with one of the female sales personnel?" he asked. She shook her head and sighed "Of course. Send whoever you need to. I thought I could expect more from you but perhaps not, maybe whoever you send should also get this office?" she added. "I will ensure it is delivered myself!" he retorted, standing and, with a deep breath, made his way to the lobby and requested an escort so that he may be able to deliver the letter himself, which of course, would require he be escorted by the Femians, if they let him leave at all. <br>
<br>
Regional Executive Yalia Pearlman chuckled and muttered to herself "My sister left me quite a mess when she died. This lout is her head sales person and somehow the Femians are still on our side? Why couldn't she have had a child and let me get on with my life back in Sol." <a href="/members/ripsaidcone.14333/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="14333" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: #ff8000">Felicia Von Reichenau,</span> <span style="color: #0080ff">Minster Lobel,</span> Diplomatic Busniess</b>.​</div><br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><br>
"Wonderful news!" Felicia clapsed her hands in agreement with a metal "ting" and smiled. "We would like for you to keep us up with current events between our two neighbors and perhaps we may work together to keep each of our nations safe." She resumed her neutral possition, "Although we've been hearing whispers of another nation that may be as large as the Hierarchy and institute beyond our charts. do you know of anything about them?" </span><br>
<span style="color: #0080ff"><br>
"I can't say that I do." Lobel remarked. "Unless you are referring to the...uhm, the Purview I believe it is called? We don't have formal diplomatic presences in that part of space. Your own people would probably know better." <br>
<br>
He straightened his tie. "Now, coming around full circle, I have proposed a reduction of the import tax to 3%, assuming you will also lower yours to three percent. Another thing that would be helpful if you were to begin basing your currency off platinum, <br>
although that is not integral to the deal. Merely makes import-export exchange rates more stable, less prone to market fluctuations. These are the concessions that my government has extended to foster better trade relations." </span><br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><br>
"We will, however basing the currency off something else will be a slow maybe impossible process, tradition runs strong within the nation and my sister holds it firmly conviencing her might be a problem." sighing she looked around the room. "my other brothers and sister would be fine with it however, although this will give Ägidius a mightly headache." </span><br>
<span style="color: #0080ff"><br>
"It is not, as I said, a requirement for the deal we are offering. Merely a mutual lowering of the import tax to 3%. At least for the next several years. Terran years, I mean." He sipped his glass of wine and turned towards Felicia. "I have the paperwork. It's symbolic, of course, not actually necessary, but the Ordo Libraria quite likes to have signed copies to file away."<br>
<br>
He paused a moment. "I noticed you were looking at my collection," he pointed towards the bookshelf, "would you like to take a volume or two? Sometimes I meet delegates from the Institute that are gobsmacked and have no clue what a book is. They read everything on computers these days, so it's quite a novelty to them. I have a computer but I don't partcularly care to use it. It hurts my eyes."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff8000">"I would be glad to take one of your books minister, and don't worry, the treaty is signed, just give me the paperwork. I personally dont mind computers however i hear our peasants have a hard time working on them. Its simply much more convient than paper but the appeal of paper is certainly something i can understand." Taking a sip of the wine once again she rememebered something. "Ah! this other nation, no we have not heard of this 'Purview' i believe you called it? what do you think of them if anything at all?"</span><br>
<span style="color: #0080ff"><br>
Lobel turned to his servant and gave him a curt order. He disappeared into the other room and reappeared with a leather-bound ledger with a sheet of paper sitting atop it. The servant had a fountain pen in his hand, and he handed both of these to Felicia. As she did so, Lobel spoke. "As far as I know, they are another warlike people. Similar to the Femians in that respect, of course unlike them in the most obvious respect. They have expanded fairly rapidly, but we have no knowledge of their true capabilities. Their capital lies at a place called Grik Vak, between Episilon Eridani and Cancri."</span><br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><br>
As Felicia was signing the paper she listened to the minister nodding at the information he was sharing. "Another war-like people, that may be problematic, or a boon if that keeps the Hierarchy in check." When she was done she settled down the pen on the paper and waited for the servant to hand it to the minister. "may i ask how you come to find their capital without knowing too much about them?" </span><br>
<span style="color: #0080ff"><br>
"Well, to be quite honest, guildsmen and spies of the Curatorium roam the whole of Civilized Space, gathering intelligence and conducting trade. We have a baseline of accurate information on every nation of the Known 'Verse. But, we do not have any formal diplomatic arrangements with the Purview. Our leaders have never met, and trade is by small, Aparatorai common merchants which we don't really bother to keep tabs on."<br>
<br>
The paper was brought to the Minister and he signed it, his signature a graceful collection of loops and arches. The servant put the paper neatly in the ledger and went to put it away.</span><br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><br>
"i see," it seemed the Curatorium has their hands in every pie. "Might i ask what your government or just you think about my ruling sister? some of the aristocrats are up in arms about her and others dont know what to think" </span><br>
<span style="color: #0080ff"><br>
Lobel steepled his fingerrs. "I'm really not allowed to say if my government had a position or not, and I don't know your sister well enough to surmise whether she is a fit ruler or not." He said, somewhat cryptically. </span><br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><br>
Felicia nodded "i see" Drinking the rest of her wine she got up and set the glass on the table. "well, i suppose business is over." looking at the papers on his work desk her eyes narrowed. "It seems like yours isnt however."</span><br>
<span style="color: #0080ff"><br>
"No rest for the governmentally-employed," Lobel replied with a mutter and a laugh. He stood and shook Felicia's hand. "My servant can take you back to the spaceport, or a hotel if you're feeling lagged."</span><br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><br>
"i would be very much obliged minister" Felicia looked at the servant then went to the bookshelf, "Which do you suggest?" Glancing back at the two"</span><br>
<span style="color: #0080ff"><br>
"This one." He said, taking a hardback book off of the shelf and pressing it into her hand. It was, a medium sized book with gold lettering that said, "Leaves of Grass" by Walt Whitman. "It's poetry. Old American poetry. I quite like it."</span><br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><br>
"hm" Felicia grabbed it and opened it up to the first page and began reading the first few sentences, satisfied she smiled at the minister. "Thank you minister, i shall take my leave now." she walked out the door and into the car where she waited her his servant to come and drive her back to the transport. She had a lot to think about when she got home.<br>

The pilots of the transports stared in shock at the taking over of their AI however their training kept them calm, more than a little disgruntled they answered straightforwardly "We are fine, and you could give control back to our ai" The rest of the people in the transport ship were simply waiting, Larissa extremely pissed off at their treatment of an ambassador and clutching her sword tight to relieve some of the anger out. The Templars escorting her, simply switching to a private channel only accessible through their armor, they were having a conversation about the poor pilots that were being subjected to basically a light interrogation. Larissa couldnt really hear it nor did she care, she simply wanted everything to go smooth and fast. Anything to get her out and back as soon as possible. But of course those were just fantasies, ambassador work took time afterall.<br>
<br>
Back onto the fleet Captian Safrax was keeping tabs on his frigates to make sure they dont do anything stupid and to only act on his say, he wasnt sure how things will go but he was sure the princess would be okay especially with her escorts. Needless to say He himself and his ships weren't exactly in the best of positions, they are practically surrounded and with the enemy having planetary support. The only thing keeping him comfortable is knowing that his ships are some of the most durable in the galaxy, being made to become projectiles themselves. If worse came to worst he'd have to abandon the princesses until they could get a large enough fleet to liberate the planet and search for her. Damage would be high but they shouldn't lose any ships.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><u><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">Atlus Royal Council<br>
Crown Prince Alastior J Branwen<br>
Location: Atlus, Markova, People's Square</span></span></u></b>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"Your Grace, all preparations are complete. The people are waiting for their Prince." That aide calmly called to Alastior who stood gazing at a hand painted painting of his family in... happier times. His gaze stopped at one face in particular, that of his youngest sister. The only other survivor of the Royal Family's public execution other then himself. The beaming face on the painting is a far cry to the mentally broken girl under close watch by trained psychiatrists. Reaching out to touch the painting, he wondered if he was only quicker. If the Loyalists forces were just a bit faster, could they have saved more of his family or even everyone? <br>
<br>
"Al..? Your thoughts troubling you again?" A gentle voice snapped him out of his thoughts and he noticed the gentle hand resting on his shoulder. Alastior chuckled and gently patted the hand before turning to the only person who can call him that. Captain Annaliese Bauduin, otherwise known as Ann to him and her close friends, his fiancee for 8 years and the officer in charge of his personal Royal Guard Company, the 8th Mobile Armour Company. The sight of her warm brown eyes alone always seemed to make him feel a touch warmer and could lift his spirits or calm his anger. Had she been smiling, his mental defenses would crumble then and there but she knew what was in his mind. He was nervous.<br>
<br>
"Its nothing, Ann... Just musing about the past.... Are you sure you don't want to stand next to me when I address the Nation?" Alastior offered. Annaliese simply shook her head and smiled. There it was, her soft and gentle smile. Alastior could feel the butterflies in his stomach settling. <br>
<br>
"You know how I feel about wide open spaces, Love. Now go. Be the leader the people needs. You'll do great." Annaliese gave him a small peck on the cheek and smoothed out his tie. Alastior sighed and nodded. Turning to face the open doors, he began his walk to the podium. His Royal Guard flanked him as he left the parliament building to the thunderous applause from the people gathered to view his speech. He beamed proudly and waved to the cheering masses as he stepped up to the podium. He let his people cheer for a moment longer before he raised an arm to call for silence. Taking a few deep breaths to calm himself, he cleared his throat and mentally recalled his speech.<br>

<u>Location: HMS Edelweiss Bridge</u></span></span></b>​</div><div style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"What are they doing...?" Eirika mused before a beeping from the communication station and the surprised yelp from Mira knocked her out of her musing. Eirika watched with held breath as Mira adjusted some knobs and strained her ears, clamping her headphones tight over her ears. After a few shot moments, Mira cheered, leapt out of her seat, and promptly pulled a very confused Eirika into tight hug.<br>
<br>
"I MADE CONTACT!!" Mira squealed happily, literally shoving her headphones into Eirika's hand. The Commander gingerly adjusted them wondering if Mira had officially snapped from crash trauma. But that opinion changed when a very static filled voice sounded through the headphones. <br>
<br>
"Mein Gott... So you have. Have that signal cleaned up now! And someone get the internal communications under control!" Eirika ordered, as the bridge crew quickly resumed their work. Eirika muttered a silent word of thanks to whatever being or thing was watching over them before focusing her attention to Mira as she adjusted the various settings to clean up the signal. <br>
<br>
"Alright, Ma'am. I did my best, try responding to their hails, Captain." Eirika took a deep breath to calm herself. She has to remain in control despite what sort of answer may come lest the crew panic. She pressed the button Mira pointed at earlier. <br>
<br>
"This is Commander Eirika Gunther, Captain of the HMS Edelweiss. If you can hear me, please respond. We are in dire need of assistance. Any... Assistance..." Eirika waited for the reply with held breath. That was until there was the muffled sound of gunfire outside the ship.<br>
<br>
"Sorry Captain, I just got the radar back online! There's an unknown VTOL outside and they just opened fire on the Reptilian Lifeforms!" <br>
"Captain, we got word from CIWS station 6! They have the gun online and are ready to fire on your command!" <br>
"Same from stations 5, 11, and 15!" <br>
<br>
"Everyone calm yourselves! Mira, are the external speakers available?" Eirika ordered. The young Communications Officer numbly nodded and flipped a few switches. "I-It should be enough to be heard in a 200 meter radius.... I got you patched into the internal PA too so you may order everyone in the ship as well." <br>
<br>
"Good work." Eirika laid a calming hand onto Mira's shoulder and reached for the mic. "All CIWS crew, ready weapons and wait for my orders..."<br>

<b><u>Corporal Lance Irving</u></b><br>
<b><u>Location: HMS Edelwiess CIWS Station 5</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"Well you heard the lady, Kid. Keep that gun trained on the VTOL but hold your fire." Sergeant Lee advised the young man as he had his busted arm bandaged by a medic. Lance wiped the sweat from his brow as he kept his fingers off the triggers of the 30mm autocannons, its sights trained on the unidentified VTOL that just opened fire earlier. <br>
<br>
"Steady there... Relax your shoulders a little, you might set the damn thing off by accident." The Sergeant advised again before cursing as the medic tightened the cast. Lance would only numbly nod and swallowed some saliva to wet his dry throat. The tension was almost visible as he kept the CIWS trained onto the VTOL. A moment later, the ship's external speakers crackled to life. <br>
<br>
<i><b>"A</b></i></span><span style="font-size: 10px"><i><b>-A</b></i></span><span style="font-size: 12px"><i><b>-Attention unknown craft.

Lance silently hoped the VTOL's pilot had some sense and would go away. This was one hell of a first maiden voyage alright. <br>

<span style="font-size: 22px"><br>
Chief Master Sergeant Ethan Bailey</span></span></b><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">Bailey followed a routine of circling the wreckage time and time again, awaiting a response from the vessel itself whilst simultaneously fending off a potential wildlife attack. His craft’s guns continued to be trained on the planet’s surface, maintaining watch over the bog and it’s inhabitants.<br>
<br>
A few minutes following this dull pattern of protecting the perimeter, the ship itself decided it was finally time to bark out a response. Whatever it even was, Bailey didn’t know.<br>
<br>
“Chief, it’s too contorted for the translators to make sense of.”<br>
“Roger that. We’ll drop off the ‘cargo’ and let them get to work. This is their job now.”<br>
<br>
The VTOL abandoned its coded routine and swiftly descended down to the surface. The craft’s peers had copied this illustration, mimicking the same action themselves. The craft came closer to the surface until it almost seemed as if it would eventually end up French kissing the bog.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 22px"><b>Corporal George Vardy</b></span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">Vardy - alongside his comrades - descended swiftly from a rope leading to the cabin of the VTOL until he smacked the waters of the bog. Knee deep in a parasite cesspool already, and it wasn’t even lunchtime. An excellent way to start the day, no less.<br>
<br>
With these thoughts out of the way, V and his unit approached the smouldering hunk of space debris acquainted with the ground. Just like every other unit that had been dropped off for this assignment. It almost seemed as if the Corps had schemed a devious plan to take the ship for themselves. Though, it barely differed from the actual plan anyway.<br>
<br>
Orders were to board the ship and secure the crew. That earlier broadcast made it clear people were still alive, and needed some not-so-average heroes to save the day. Well, here they were, ready and able.<br>

It was Gwalter from up above, obviously he just witnessed the unknown craft firing at the ship. "yeah they are, tell them my fire-team is coming over to help, aircraft seems hostile." Right after she was done talking to him one of her knights tapped her shoulder pauldron and pointed over to the aircraft. Seeing infrantry landing on the hull Geleswintha felt her adrenaline rush, were they hostiles attempting to take over the ship? A fort like that on this planet would be hard to assault and take out should the unknowns get a hold of it and she was damned sure the paladins would want to see some of that ships systems and technologies enough to not destroy it from orbit. "We cant let them take over the ship move! Gwalter tell them they have unknowns on their ship and that we are advancing to intercept. fire on the craft if you feel its going to fire" She got up from her perch and started moving toward the ship her brothers at her flanks, their shields at the ready.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><b>Sir Gwalter</b> Yirath.</b><br>​</div>Sir Gwalter messaged the ship as he was told. "Commander Gunther, we are sending a fireteam to your location to assist with any problems, the aircraft outside your ship seems hostile." The corvette was then set to hover in the air a little ways away from the crashsite with its weapons trained on the vtol aircraft ready to fire if it did anything. "Commander Gunther! The aircraft has deployed infrantry on your ship! The fireteam is advancing to intercept, i repeat the fireteam is advancing." he gritted his teeth, when he was hired to guard the count on this world he didnt expect anything like this would happen. "sensors on the aircraft, be ready to fire at a moments notice." he told his crew and was given nods.<br>

<div style="text-align: center">Ägidius Von Reichenau, Aeternum City.<br>​</div>Ägidius was siting in the palace looking over documents and signing them like every other day, taxes, complaints, invitations, budget requests, trade deals, and a whole host of other goodies. sighing he leaned back onto his chair and looking over to the window which had a view of the capital city. He was good at his job of governance, better than the rest of his siblings he managed to pass laws and taxes that kept unrest to a minimum and made most people content enough not to throw a fuss about it. But it didnt mean he liked it, it was tedious and boring, unlike going to foreign territories like his sisters or being queen like Irisviellya. He was brooding in his private work quarters until his communicator ringed he slowly reached over to accept the call. "My liege it appears a faction of the Federal United Systems requests assistance for their revolution against their government." The news gave Ägidius a small chuckle, he turned around and the holo-screen showed the message, after a quick reading he was still his usual brooding self. "ignore it, it is of importance." he swiveled his chair around to the view of the city but glanced back. "Although the knights might want to choose a side" When he heard the communicator shut off he sighed once again, it seemed these were interesting times indeed, and he was trapped here.<br>

Slums of Briggs-Villa</b><br>
A small and rusted ship landed on the outskirts. While the ship appeared fairly inconspicuous the moment its doors opened eight members of Sedna Trade Security Force dressed similarly to workers on the planet yet armed with high tech weaponry. Once they had secured the landing site Vax Vega, Regional Executive of the Federal United Systems Region, stepped out of the ship. He had his 'companions' (three high and scantily dressed individuals, two female and one male) return inside, tossing them some of his 'product' as he left the craft. His assistant Maeli Jorx quickly got to work brushing him down and adjusting his suit so that he looked professional and presentable. Vax, unlike his guests, was completely sober and had business to attend to, potentially very, very profitable business. He knew, of course, that the Solar Trade Alliance had amicable relations with the local Federal Government and that it would not reflect well on his political ambitions if he ended up damaging those relations. This was somewhere in his mind, second to the more lucrative aim that lay in sight. Profit. The planet was in chaos and only two factions had the money to spare for him. The Government who had the money but not the desperate need, yet, and the Commie rebels who appeared to have secured large funds and were in dire need of 'assistance'. Now Vax, like most successful businessmen made it a rule to despise communism and those that practised it. However he knew that there were always ways to profit. In a capitalist government the people are who you sell you, In communist government, the government was who you sold too, while you charged the people 10 times the standard price for basic commodities that they wanted. <br>
Vax began to make his presence known to the rebels and, heading to a bar with 2 of the security forces that were there to 'protect' him, awaited when a member of those Commies would approach him to begin the transactions. <a href="/members/doodlesm.50452/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="50452" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

"I'm afraid I can't allow that. Enjoy your stay on Venus." The docking clamps of the ring release, returning to their resting locations and allow the ship to fly down to the surface of the planet. Dianna takes but a moment to learn the controls of the ship before setting a course for the home of Veneria and most of the human population.<br>
The descent appears to be an incredibly smooth one, gliding through the (lack of) air with blue crow escorts. The crew experiences a mildly rough entry into the planet's atmosphere but, once accepted by the planet, they return to a comfortable glide. <br>
<br>
The lower they get to the ground, the more obvious it becomes that the planet surface is one teeming with life. Vibrantly coloured birds spread out awkwardly to avoid the ships, making sounds not loud enough to pierce through the hull of the ship. In a few minutes the ship arrives safely above one of the designated landing pads at the main 'city' of Venus.<br>
The landing gears extend and the ship lowers even more. It touches the pad and the gears lock up, jolting the ship slightly. Dianna shuts off the ship's engines and gives everyone inside a moment to undo whatever safety harnesses they'd put on before arrival. Once everyone was up and on their feet, she extends the boarding ramp from the rear of the ship and opens the bay doors.<br>
<br>
Waiting for their arrival stand a total of six droids in a tight rectangle formation. Two deep, three across. Five appear to be combat units while the droid at the front and centre was much thinner in frame. Where the other droids had head like units, this droid had a screen that displayed the Venerian flag and its hands were just that. Metallic hands.<br>
The other combat units wore shields and fire arms. The three at the rear of the rectangle appeared to have their shields pressed against their chests with their weapons aimed upwards towards the sky. The other two at the front had their weapons by their sides and the shields left down, pressing against the floor. The wiley unit takes a step forward when he sees the ambassador's figure and offers a polite, though somewhat jolted, bow to address her. "Welcome to Venus."<br>

The archons appraise the validity of the message recieved from the relatively quiet sector of space. They rarely recieved calls such as these and from a faction so far away, it seemed almost pointless. They could dispense troops for a lengthy campaign, most certainly, but the quantity wasn't anything to call home about. With one another they find the message to be valid, the coordinates genuine, and the faction asking for assistance to be unregistered.<br>
<br>
They agree that this so called 'people's movement against the tyranical system of the NATFEDs' is one that diverges from the call of the raven, and thus is opposed to the fundamental rulings of ravenism. These beliefs and goals, socialist in name and communist in nature, aren't something that can be allowed to propogate in the systems lest it evolve into another union of heresy. The institute and the femians already stood out against the purity of humanity like a sore thumb and they'd be damned to allow another to join them.<br>
<br>
The archons prepare an emissary for departure within a small shuttle, accompanied by four combat units. The shuttle leaves the planet, passing the rings and going past the micro fleet before jumping to the system of Reed with an accompanying message requesting an audience with the council regarding an official meeting and a duplicated message of the insurgents. If these so called 'NATFED's were tyranical, and kept their rights under tight watch, then perhaps they also kept impurity from spreading. Anyone who stood against the impure was already an ally in the eyes of the archons and their people.</span></div>

The deep thudding of smooth red boots sounded down the hallway towards the Sednian man as a pair of Military Police troopers approached, rifles in hand as one held the side of their helmet briefly before murmuring something incoherent to who one would assume was their superior and the other lifting her hand and pulling her fingers back in a gesture for the man to come over. The MP officers being distinguished to their infantry counterparts by the unique red markings that covered parts of their usually white armor. They had been informed that the Sednian ambassadors had wanted to arrange a meeting of sorts to propose something, but of course due to the secretive nature of the Femians they couldn't organize a more casual meeting, requiring an escort to be present in the proceedings. As the Sednian man stepped up to the two MP's, one of them, the one who had been on the horn with her superiors took off a small white rectangular looking device from her belt and held it over his face, quickly scanning it as they confirmed his identity, Saelic Marks the man whom the Sednians had sent to deal with them. The MP nodding approvingly as they turned on their heels and begun strolling off, it being implied that the man was to follow as the now-group of three left the main lobby of the Sednian Embassy and out into the courtyard of Caressa Tower's 195th floor. The courtyard presenting a more than picturesque view of Kax Terata, Bethan's largest and only city--this being due to the fact that Kax Terata took up the entirety of the colony, it being what Earth's ancient Greeks would call a Ecumenopolis. Bethan itself being a rather small moon orbiting a much larger and already colonized planet by the name of Aantan Prime thus making the full urbanization of its entire surface comparatively easy. Regardless of the city's nature, it was an impressive view nonetheless, with a clear line of sight towards the Bethan Trade Exchange thus making it in the minds of the Femian officials who had designated the 195th floor as the Sednian Embassy the most suiting place for it to be, especially given Bethan's reputation in Femian space as a bastion of economic freedom.<br>
<br>
"This way." One of the MP troopers said as the trio turned a sharp corner connecting the large, well-decorated courtyard to a smaller alleyway like area that in turn led to a landing platform for Aircars and other air or spacefaring vessels, a Thero-class transport shuttle sitting there with another, large group of MP troopers standing guard outside of it and a tall woman donning a military uniform however one with black bottoms and a white top, similar to that of the Aerial or Terror Corps but with red lines darting up the side of the white upper half of the uniform, showing the woman's status as an official of the Commerce Corps and the colored squares on the left breast of her uniform revealing her rank to be that of a Sub-Planetary Director of Commerce, a more official sounding name for the assistant of the Planetary Director of Commerce, again an official sounding name for the highest ranking commerce official on Bethan. The Sub-Director not wasting anytime with a brief and firm handshake before leading the Sednian representative into the shuttle behind them, the MP's following in line formation as everyone sat themselves down and the shuttle took off, bypassing the usual civilian lanes of sky-traffic due to their government authorization as they flew over the cityscape of Bethan and in-between the taller skyscrapers that littered said cityscape en-masse. Sub-Director Mateia leaning forward in her seat, her fingers interlocking with one another as she looked to the Sednian man curiously. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Marks although I must admit your Boss' request to send a representative such as yourself to see us was unexpected. As you may already know we here in the Hierarchy aren't all that used to arranging meetings with foreign representatives, however we also are not against such actions. Out of both curiosity and a more official requirement, I must ask what exactly you have to offer us in terms of commerce? Or would this be more of a... Military matter?"<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Aldwain Fortified Monastery<br>
Cygnus Magnus, Cygni System</b>​</div><br>
From the plasma-glass windows, Proctor Peter Kalomire could see out over the expanse of the upper clouds of Cygnus Magnus, the largest planet in the Cygni System. About the size and makeup of Saturn, the planet was habitable with the right equipment at the surface cloud level. Before him stretched the floating complex of the Aldwain Monastery. Skybridges connected the various portions of the facility across dozens of kilometers that were often criss-crossed by rocket-propelled monorails. At the far end of the facility, a giant deuterium synthesizer was sucking in great mouthfuls of air in such a fashion that it swallowed the pink clouds of Cygnus Magnus's upper atmosphere like a man ingesting cotton candy. It was the main way in which the monastery kept itself in craythors to fund its military and religious ventures. Immediately below him, a crowd of Ordus Templaris initiates in their dull red fatigues, kneeling on the platform out in the open air with rebreather masks on, praying. Above them, a corvette bearing the livery of the Ecclesia Solaris soared in the yellowish-pink tinted sky of the planet.<br>
<br>
"Proctor Kalomire," came a voice from behind him.<br>
<br>
It was Father Leonidas, one of the chaplains for the Ordus Templaris. To be frank, Kalomire detested him. They had gone to seminary together, but whereas the Proctor had put on the full armor of God and fashioned himself into a holy warrior, Leonidas had, much unlike his namesake, taken to philosophy and a sort of quasi-pacifism. They were both forty-two, but where Kalomire was in peak physical shape for a man his age, Leonidas had showed a disturbing lack of restraint and reminded him of a hog, the way he sweated even in amiable temperatures. <br>
<br>
"Yes, Father Leonidas, what is it?"<br>
<br>
The fat priest took a letter from his parcel. "A letter, from the Office of the Holy See."<br>
<br>
"Give me that," Proctor Kalomire said irritably and took the letter. The Holy See? What could they want with him?<br>
<br>
He opened the letter;<br>
<br>
<i>Proctor Kalomire,<br>
<br>
If you remember rightly, we have spoken twice before. I am Father Patrarchus, Head Scrivener of the Holy See, Ministerium of Records. We have been scanning the rosters of the Ordus Templaris for a proctor we feel can be trusted to lead a mission of the utmost importance to a rebel outpost in Yerunik. We are not concerned with gold and treasure, nor do we seek to reconquer the system for the Church's Benefactors. It would be far too costly in blood and treasure. Instead, we seek the recovery of Mother-Superior Grandeis from the convent in Trussel, a small village north of the planetary capital. We have reason to believe that she is being held captive, given recent communications. Although the rebellion occurred some years ago, some of our facilities have remained unmolested in the countryside up until now. We suspect that the mission will be dangerous and will require a great degree of prejudice and stealth. Be that as it may, we have a duty to rescue her and any sisters who may still be alive. You will be briefed in more detail at a later date. God bless.<br>
<br>
Father Patrarchus, Office of the Holy See<br>

Proctor Kalomine looked up from the letter at Father Leonidas then back at the initiates on the platform. "Call my men to mess," he said glancing at his watch, "and tell Astrophil, Roberts, and Peterson to convene in two hours in my quarters."<br>

The envoy was shaking. He was hiding it marvellously but to anyone paying enough attention it would be noticeable. He hated the unrelenting security precautions almost as much as he hated how out of place he felt and how judged he thought he was. He was surprised by how quickly there were getting down to business, especially for so secretive a people. As such he responded "We are aware of your dedication to... security in the many Systems our kind have colonised. We are always... procuring better weapon technology and you have often been good customers in that regard we wish to increase our bond of trade. Bring our two people closer together. We have weapons. A large number of mined resources, to help with your many large constructions. We also have information and we plan on offering this and more in return for usual such arrangements, payment and trade, continued access to your market and... options. The noose is tightening around Sol and we want... routes to new opportunities. We can begin talking and discussing the bare shell of this deal but Miss. Pearlman will have to attune any deal we to make to assure it is to the Trade Masters liking and I do not have the authority to sign off on that. Now shall we begin the old back and forth?" He said, producing a catalogue of Sednian Products, adding "Of course with a client such as yourselves we have other products less well advertised in those various catagories. <a href="/members/ripsaidcone.14333/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="14333" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId11">

A smile was hidden on the edge of Vax's mouth. <i>'They sure are still crawling about' h</i>e thought as he watched the men look about. He had noticed the masked men, of course, but he knew they were nothing, sacrifices on the path to progress as far as the revolution was no doubt concerned. The man got straight to the point, for someone so worried about being found he was awfully quick to talk shop. Vax savoured the moment. He lifted the drink to his lips and took a slow sip. He then chuckled quietly to himself before setting the drink down and shaking his head. "Yes. Equipment. You and I both know you're out-gunned. What I could do with knowing is, are you out-manned. Do I need to send you lots of affordable 'equipment' or a smaller number of far more efficient... oh damn. What were we calling them again? Ahh yes. Equipment. Then I just need to know how much you value this equipment and it shall simply drop down from the sky into your laps. Once I have been paid, of course." <a href="/members/doodlesm.50452/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="50452" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId13">

The Vault</b>​</div><b><a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/2240249-lwsm_church_sculpture_8949-jpg.374953/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/311/311915-db682bdfaac6ee0ac473141fabfd2d32.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="2240249-lwsm_church_sculpture_8949.jpg" title="2240249-lwsm_church_sculpture_8949.jpg" width="100" height="56" loading="lazy"></a> <br>
</b><br>
The Vault was the epicenter of the Aldwain Monastery, a large vaulted chamber dominated by statues of female saints. In the center of the great vaulted room, a lifelike and richly-colored holographic projection of the planet Yerunik twirled in its simulated rotations before a small crowd of soldiers. Among them, Proctor Kalomire, Lady Astrophil, Sir Roberts and Sir Peterson, as well as two steel-faced male initiates for whom this was to be their first mission. Proctor Kalomire wore a high-collared long, black, belted tunic with red Templar crosses emblazoned on white, cloth epaulets. His underlings were similarly dressed, the official knights of the Ordus Templaris in white tunics with crosses over the whole of the breast, and the initiates in plain red tunics. The soldiers had just returned from a pre-mission mass, and most were in a rather pensive and solemn mood. Shortly thereafter, they were joined from the chapel by a few members of the military of the Tempus Concordant led by one Major Gosvin. Before they entered, they were asked if they would take a priest's benediction as no one was allowed to enter the Vault without a blessing. The knights, however, seemed to regard the newcomers in a friendly manner, but without allowing them to misconstrue friendship and gratitude as total acceptance. <br>
<br>
Proctor Kalomire spoke first. "Thank you all for your promptness in attendance," he began in English so that the Tempus troops could understand him, "the Holy See has placed the responsibility for recovering Mother Grandeis from the convent in Tussel upon us. As you may remember, when the Vicurator Rouse Desade overthrew the yolk of the House Skyre, he immediately began ransacking the monasteries on Yerunik. Tussel was one of the last facilities to fall. It was dedicated to the Sisters of the Red Cross.." he paused and let the soldiers look at the crosses on their uniforms. "We don't know what happened to the sisters there. It is possible they are being held captive, but more likely that they were... sold into servitude by aristocrats loyal to Desade. What we do know is that Mother Grandeis has been sending communiques to the Office of the Holy See explaining that she is under guard by Desade's loyalists and that they expect a ransom of one million platinum craythors. Obviously, the Church finds giving financial assistance to such unsavory characters distasteful. Thus, we have been dispatched to assault the convent and extract Mother Grandeis."<br>
<br>
He turned to the map. "Here, is Karyerunik, the capital of the planet and where Vicurator Desade resides." The map flattened into a two-dimensional display at about knee height with simulated mountains and trees, with routes and buildings marked helpfully in exact detail. An automobile road snaked up a wooded cliff and around a small mountain to reach the convent, which was a large wood and stone structure sitting on a plateau overlooking a river valley. On either side of the route were farms and a small town, the village of Tussel, grew up about the route at the foot of the mountain with charming white stucco houses with blue roofs. "The convent is fifty klicks north of the capital, and is said to be lightly guarded, but this may be deceiving as Tussel is said to be a hotbed of loyalist activity and the Vicurator may have more men in the town below. Our VTOL craft will land here," he pointed, "in this wheat field. The trees will shield us from the village's LOS, the farmer is on our side, and we're doing a nighttime insertion with a stealthed craft. Which means they won't pick us up on radar, but if for some reason they do, we won't have any ship-mounted weapons to help us. The VTOL will then circle around the mountain to this field," he pointed again to a field on the far side of the convent by the river bank in a clearing of trees, "that is our extraction point. Hopefully, we can silence any personnel in the convent and they won't know what hit them. Assuming that fails, we're really going to have to book it before the Vicurator's own VTOLs start turning up. Once we land, we'll be requisitioning a truck, a tractor trailer that should be filled with wheat chaff. One of us will drive while the others hide in the chaff. This will get us up the road to the convent, but from there it will pretty much be weapons hot. Primary objective is, of course, the location and extraction of Mother Grandeis. Secondary objectives, the elimination of all hostiles and the recovery of records of martyrs on Yerunik which should be held in the convent library. Any questions?"<br>

Her eyes quickly wandered to the surroundings of the landing pad with her eyes being awashed with green, massive plants sprouting from the ground below. Behind the droids she saw large columns of buildings that were, frankly pretty ugly, with overgrowth seemingly growing on the outer buildings. "Greetings, i am Larissa Von Reichenau youngest of the Reichenau royal family." She gracefully bowed with the ceremonial sword in her hand which was the concordats way of giving respect of new contacts, she leaned back up and smiled. "Your planet is beautiful" She brought up the sword which was sheathed to her eye level. "We have a gift for your leader, it is a symbol of our respect" She then showed the Order of the crow insignia which was embedded into the sheath and sword to the droid.<br>

</div></div>Lady Gosvin or Major Gosvin to these self proposed "Templar" listened quickly over the briefing as well as her brothers and sister, all of their minds coming up with possible alternatives but they knew it was all ultimately all up to her. When the briefing ended the old Valkyrie spoke up, "If i may Proctor Kalomire, the Argent's suits are well optimized for frontal assaults, i'd advise using them as a distraction once we get to the convent while we strike from the flanks." She pressed her palm on her chest. "Our Valkyrie suits are very maneuverable and fast and can stay out of atmosphere for an extended period of time. If the landing zone is not clear we can clear it for you." while it was true intelligence wasn't on their side she would think these rebels would have access to the same equipment the rest of House skyre's military has. The Argents and her sister looked at her and nodded, although taking fire was less than optimal if it got the job done then so be it.<br>

Not that the current faction who holds it is pleasant but revolutionists seemed to take an unliking to monarchy. "Contact the federal united Systems, ask if they require assistance to quell this rebellion they have" It would be a good way to get extra payment for him and his crew anyways.<br>

In the mean time, Lydia flipped all the switches and slipped her arms into the control arms. <br>
<br>
"All systems are green. I'm good to go here," Lydia stated as she flipped the hatch switch shut. Her helmet visor darkened before switching to the view from the main camera of her Strider. Manipulating the controls, her Strider stood from its previously crouched position and stood up to its full height of 10.7m. Its optics flashed briefly as she maneuvered it towards the launch tube but not before grabbing a 50mm carbine off the weapons rack. Once her Strider is secured to the launch tube, it sealed shut around her. <br>
<br>
"Sergeant, orders from the Missus. You are to secure the location around the ship and chase off any potential threats. Although she made sure to specify that we leave the natives alone for now. Focus on the enemies currently on the hull. Got that?" The Chief Mechanic's voice came in clear. Lydia took a deep breath to calm herself. Her first solo outing given that the other Strider was pinned under some debris at the moment. <br>
<br>
"Right. Orders received. 1st Sergeant Lydia Cartwright, ready for launch." Lydia confirmed her orders, her hands gripping the controls as she braced herself for the shock. <br>
<br>
"Launching!" With that final shout, her Strider was shot upwards, a hatch on the ship's hull opened and her Strider was launched a good 10 or so meters into the sky. Flipping over once, she pushed down on the pedals, the Strider's feet and backpack thrusters fired off and slowed her descent. Looking down, her Strider locked onto the unknown contacts on the ship. Aiming her rifle, she fired warning shots, knowing that the ship's hull won't be so easily penetrated by her carbine's 50mm HEAT slugs. <br>
<br>
"Don't think about it.... Don't think about it.... Tch..!" But on infantry, not a chance.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><b><span style="font-size: 22px">Yerith / Clides D3GP Surface</span></b><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px">Chief Master Sergeant Ethan Bailey<br>
</span></span></b><br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">“What the fuck?” Bailey cried, as a barrage of discharged rounds rushed towards him like wolves chasing after a scrap of meat. He gripped the cyclic hard and cycled the VTOL through patterns of random and incomprehensible motions in a desperate bid to avoid being torn apart. The bullets that dashed for his ass either grazed the hull or missed anywhere vital to the craft’s operation.<br>
<br>
But Bailey may have just pulled the short end of the shit straw as his left engine seemed to give out. There was barely anything to provide balance from this point. “Fucking...!” Bailey may have been a good pilot, but he was yet to achieve absolute perfection that he wished he had. “And this is what we get for trying to rescue are bunch of trigger-happy spacers!” <br>
<br>
The VTOL soon entered a pattern of flight that could not be intentional. Spiralling towards the ground, until it made a hard impact against the vegetation. No explosion, but certainly out of the game. <br>
<br>
Bailey, still alive, struggled for emergency breathing apparatus. His flight helmet had been damaged to the point of malfunctioning when he needed it now. As he brought the mask around his face and vented some oxygen into his deprived lungs, he chuckled, and said “An odd gesture of thanks.”<br>
</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><b>Sergeant Christopher Agne</b><br>
</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">Agne watched on in shock as the ship turned its weapons against their support. It had been unexpected, and no one was prepared for the scenario to occur. His unit rushed to form a defensive position should the guns be turned on them too.<br>
<br>
Agne soon then noticed something taking up position in the sky, in place of the VTOL that had just been downed. It fired down to the surface, striking the waters of the bog as if it was some sort of threat to intimidate them. They were soldiers of the Purview, however. Evidence of bad aim could not sway them. <br>
<br>
But a more peaceful solution was considered. Agne waved his arm in the air in a spastic motion in some attempt to gain possibly unwanted attention. When he believed to have acquired what he wanted, a produced his head, and chastised whoever he was offering help to. “Friendlies! Hold your fire! Hold your fucking fire, damnit!” Whether or not this would work, a conclusion was inevitable.<br>

She connected two and two together and when the aircraft crash landed nearby in the swamp she decided the Altusians had the situation in hand, "Seize the ship!" The three knights then made their way toward the downed craft guns pointed at any possible exits, slowly approaching. "Come out!" One of the knights ran up to it to see if anyone was alive. Up above Gwalter was about to fire but he was relieved when the Altus ship took matters into their own hands and leaned back sighing, "Be careful Lady Geleswintha" <br>

<span style="font-family: 'georgia'">Gar'shal watched as the flying beast spun to the ground, with the aid of the other creature shooting.....something at it. He turned for a moment to look at it, and give it a gesture of thanks and as an apology for mistaking it as a threat, left a charm made of bone and rock by it. It his mind this was some sort of test from the gods, the gods work in strange ways sometimes.<br>
<br>
Of course he quickly turned his attention to where the beast had fallen and decided he should give chase, who know what this strange creature would yield? However on his way there he ran into Veezkus, who had been making his way to the crash with his own warriors and hunters. The two stood and talked for a while, eventually agreeing to go together and investigate, with Veezkus taking the lead.<br>
<br>
The two lead their combined forces of about thirty men to the crash sight, taking a moment to hide themselves they examined the scene. They saw the strange creature surrounded by other creatures, these where not Za'lashi. By this point Veezkus and Gar'shal where fairly sure of themselves and devised a plan. They had their men encircle the crash site and after a short while, made themselves known.<br>
<br>
The hunters and warriors emerged from the foliage and Veezkus and Gar'shal emerged as well. Veezkus hissed and roared to get their attention, holding his spear ready, he was done with gestures.<br>

"<span style="color: #336600">My lord, urgent reports from fleet command,</span>" muttered a small black haired man by the name of Vericus, a commander turned glorified messenger. "<span style="color: #660000">Speak boy, if the report is so urgent I have no time for your humble oaths and swearings of truth.</span>" The Overlord's voice was booming in comparison to the malnourished and weak Vericus. "<span style="color: #336600">The sentients we planned on investigating for the new habitat.... their home world is experiencing high amounts of interest from differing factions. We don't know which empires are curr-</span>" Vericus was cut off short with a back hand from the Overlord. "<span style="color: #660000">You would dare call those grouped heathens and heretics an empire? I let you call them a faction, but an empire? Your failures put you in this position but another outburst of that magnitude will have you jettisoned,</span>" The Overlord paused while mumbling,"<span style="color: #660000">Nevertheless, you said multiple factions are on this.... this savage planet?</span>" The Overlord inquired while pointing to his datapad, which displayed the planet. "<span style="color: #336600">Y-yes my lord, we can't tell who it is, but they are different.... factions.</span>" Vericus mumbled while feeling his bruised face. "<span style="color: #660000">Are they.... attacking each other? Which factions are they?</span>" The Overlord asked while typing commands into his personal console. "<span style="color: #336600">We don't know, my lord.... we.. I was sent to ask permission to send a frigate to investigate th-,</span>" once more Vericus was struck with out warning. "<span style="color: #660000">You are a fool not to tell the sender of this message that if we do not know the factions involved or whether they're hostile, it'd be foolish to put our secrecy on the line to watch a bunch of swine traders...</span>" The Overlord yelled at the now whimpering Vericus. "<span style="color: #660000">But... this gives me an idea.... It has been so long since we left the safety of our paradise.... so long since we ventured into possible dangers. Vericus, stand up,</span>" the Overlord only whispered this so that himself and Vericus could hear. Vericus stood, preparing for another strike from the Overlord, but was surprised by a gentle hand on his shoulder. "<span style="color: #660000">It is time we go mobilize our forces, it has been too long since the last time we put the fear into the hearts of our people, without fear they have no reason to follow me.... other than my divine power that could end them all in an instant.</span>" Every fifty years or so an Empire wide scare would be spread to keep the citizens in line, and root out nonbelievers.<br>
<br>
It had been only a few hours between the time the Overlord spoke with Vericus and when an emergency message was to be broadcast Empire wide.<br>
<br>
"<span style="color: #660000">It has come to my attention that our interstellar interests have attracted the eyes of stray heretics, heathens, and vermin,</span>" The Overlord paused as he gazed over the millions of citizens staring at him,"<span style="color: #660000">We have been hidden for a very long time, those that we once called brothers and sisters have long forgotten us. They do not remember how a billion afraid souls rallied behind me, rallied behind the ONE TRUE GOD! Today I will be enacting a full mobilization! Every ship, every weapon, and every soldier is called to arms for this! To protect you, my people, from the harms of these impure vermin! Now I ask you, will you do as I say? Will you march into the teeth of this ferocious beast known as the universe?</span>" The Overlord had been speaking angrily up until the last two sentences, a quiet pause followed. He had never addressed his people with a question before, it was seen as pure heresy to speak while the Overlord spoke. From the crowd came a single voice. "<span style="color: #663300">FOR THE OVERLORD!</span>" It was a young man, probably barely an adult but the millions around him began chanting the same outcry. Then around the planet the the chant grew in volume and number, the head of propaganda and brainwashing deserved higher pay.<br>
<br>
Every ship had been undocked and prepped for warp. Every soldier had been armed and dispersed to their unit. Clones, Perfected, Uplifted, and Natives alike had been mobilized on every ship, from simple fuel transports to the dreadnoughts. The shipyards were empty and the barracks were deserted, the Overlord was successful in riling up the masses. While all the ships were prepped for warp, not all of them were leaving. A large fraction of the ships were going to warp into uninhabited systems to update the old maps and charts. Only a small fraction of the ships would be sent to systems with habitable worlds or possibly enemy held planets. The largest ship, a dreadnought, of the expedition project was to leave for a possibly colonizeable world, the charts only indicated that it had the potential for colonization. As the last checks came in green each ship warped into a different direction. The dreadnought known as the Crypt was accompanied by four wing transports, and on arrival the checks were made and nothing out of the ordinary had been noticed.<br>

		</div>
	</div>
</div></i></b>​</div>The HMS <i>Chalcedon </i>was one of the oldest ships in the Curatorium's Freighter's Guild's fleet, moving through the Aquarii System to the Tempus Concordant capital at Tempus Alterium. At least a hundred years old, its fusion reactors were terribly inefficient and some days it seemed the old ship was held together with prayers, bubblegum, and duct tape. As a matter of fact, Apprenticeman Robert Wright, on his way to the medbay, watched as one of the ships mechanics repaired a leaking water fountain by stopping the leak with plastic putty to seal it for another year or so before the valves went completely bad. He never trusted the water on this ship anyways. No telling how long it had been since the water recycler had been maintained. <br>
<br>
The Apprenticeman strolled past with his hands in the pockets of his long black spacer coat. The temperature of the interior of the <i>Chalcedon </i>was always around 60 degrees, and for someone from the warm climes of Epsilon Eridani II, this was a problem. It meant he was constantly catching cold and other unsavory diseases and was always going to the sickbay. There was of course the added bonus of seeing the pretty blonde nurse, but his heart wasn't really in it. Perhaps because he felt awful all the time these days. Between twelve hour shifts cataloguing, moving cargo, separating cargo, and rating cargo, and the constant sickness he felt like the personification of ass. That was to be expected of Apprenticemen, who just held a fancy title that designated them as glorified go-fers and sorters, the peons of the guild system. Yet, after three years he had a real shot at a good, stable warehouse job on Philemon, and from there the command of his own ship in perhaps another ten or fifteen years. The Guild looked after their own. <br>
<br>
"Sick again, Robert?" The nurse muttered as he flitted into the room. She sighed and fitted her wool cap down tighter over her hair and tugged at the too-short sleeves of her white medical fatigues. "Here, take this anti-viral in case it's the same funk as last time, here's a decongestant, and here's a pressure relief pill."<br>
<br>
Robert took the pills in hand and swallowed them using a draught of soda from an unopened can nearby. The one thing about medicine in the Curatorium was that it was effective, perhaps too effective. Within seconds, he felt his head de-fog, but also felt mucus gushing from his nose as the decongestant evacuated his sinuses. He held a thick paper towel to his face and waited for it to all drain out before discarding it. He sniffed once, then sighed. "That's better."<br>
<br>
"Take care of yourself," cautioned the nurse, "keep your head warm, and drink more fluids." She said, eying the soda in his hand critically.<br>
<br>
"What? Soda is a fluid." <br>
<br>
She grinned and replied humorously. "Fine, just die then. See if I care." <br>
<br>
Alarm klaxon bit into the moment, and the mechanical voice of the prerecorded emergency system shouted out his warning, "Attention! All hands report to the armory and prepare to repel boarders. Unidentified ships sighted starboard 36 degrees at 4,600 kilometers out." <br>
<br>
They glanced at each other. "Shit. To battlestations?" Robert asked rhetorically. "Why aren't they trying to motor out of here? And who could be the 'unidentified ships'? Pirates?"<br>
<br>
"Do I look like a Mentat?" The nurse grumbled. They both filed out and jogged half-quick to the armory where one of the security personnel in grey combat armor was handing out assault rifles. He handed one to both of them, already loaded with a magazine and handed them each an extra magazine. The rifles were somewhat large and bulky, firing a .308 jacketed cartridge and each magazine held thirty rounds. They stowed their spare magazines and followed another group of apprentices to a the Forward Cargo Bay. If they were going to be boarded, it would be the logical place for them to board and also the easiest to defend.<br>
<br>
Robert knelt down a good distance away from the airlock doors and his companion knelt beside him. They waited with hearts in their chest not knowing the situation outside and whether this was a pointless precaution for a few unregistered traders passing through, or a futile defense against professional pirates. <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>The Bridge of the <i>Chalcedon<br>
</i></b>​</div>Captain Otto Vinver studied his console with dread. Scanning over the signatures of the dozens of ships that had just warped into the system, his first mate had already deduced them to be warships of an unknown origin. Possibly pirates, but also possibly a rogue military faction, slavers, or the legendary (and dubious) "space cannibals" that were often discussed in Curatorium space. The rest of the bridge crew looked at their displays confused. At least one was attempting to contact any Tempus ships in the area while the others frantically dispatched engineers from their terminals to fix the ship's cracked power core which was a) leaking radiation and b) preventing them from warping away from the battle. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b>Gemini-II</b><br>
Three large Island class ship descended down to the planet that was second closest to the Star Gemini. Soldiers wearing the signature Red uniforms of the Tritarrians fanned out and were soon followed by more soldiers carrying simple rations and supplies. As soldiers secured the landing site basic fortifications were being put up. As all this was underway the large Continental Class ship sent off probes to the other planets. They had already attained the Gemini-II was the best suited for habitation but they wanted more info on the surrounding planets and wanted to ensure no one else was attempting to claim their system and result in one of those annoying messes where two colonies appear hidden from each other, often so someone can stealthily claim land. While these probes shot out and began scanning the surfaces and probing into what was below to see where development would be useful and where it would be wasted.<br>
<br>
As all this was underway Major Halerd was descending down to 'Gemini-II' in the Range Class Transport 'Alpine', designed specially for establishing colonies. As it descended down into the atmosphere Major Halerd was communicating the Planetary Class ship, the Command, where General Averies, General of the Royal Colonial Forces and keeping him aprised of recent events. The General would have spearheaded the colonisation himself however he was indisposed due to some political strife. Because of this he was under Royal Order to hold back and ensure his presence was within reach of Tritarria as only his forces and those of the Royal Guard were under direct command of the Crown. The young queen was always quick to show that she had power and authority despite the fact she is only 11 and has very little direct control over the government.<br>
<br>
"She is going to grow into a feisty commander indeed. How long until you land Major?" The General noted toward to end of a discussion of recent events.<br>
"Just a few more minutes and the Alpine will begin the establishing protocol" was the response, almost as if by magic various noises and sounds began to kick in. The General knew what was going on and with a nod ended the communication. With that the Alpine began to slow its descent and the bottom of its incredibly large main cargo hold began to open. The large locks that kept everything in place disconnected and the large buildings began to descend. An entire city and its many parts began to appear below the larger ship. As it closed in on the ground soldiers cleared the area and, what looked like badly designed armorments, also began to extend. Finnally, with a velocity of 0.1m/s (in base 12 of course), the city discconected from the craft and fell no more then ßcm (†) from the ground. A moment later the silly looking armorments thudded to the ground, they were indeed armorments but not for the ship. They were powerful fortifications to provide security and a level of isolation from the outside world and allow the colony to operate regardless of the danger of local wildlife or fauna. With this the ship rose above the newly planted city and shored itself in the bordering sea, floating perfectly on the top. The Major then addressed his crew. "Its about time another leg of the historic network is secured for Tritarria. On behalf of the Queen I can only say. Lets secure this rock." The crew responded with general shouts, such as the old 'Hoo Rah' and others but heard louder then the others was "For Queen Juliette!". You wouldn't expect this from any other branch but most who joined the Colonial Force did so not because of a desire to colonise but because they wished to serve under the Crown rather then the Dodecarchy.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Aquarii System</b><br>
<b>Duke Irnfried, Lady Radegonda<br>
Javian Prime <br>
</b>​</div>The Aquarii system wasn't considered to be very much as a high security system, it was clear of any hyper-lanes connecting to any known neighbors so the real ones were Tempus Alterium and Ursa Major. But it was also next to relatively unknown space and a small trade hub between The Order and Altus, Normally trade between The Curatorium and The Order occurred at the capital or the Stuve system but the Curatorium has many traders and sometimes they used Aquarii as an alternative when the major ones were crowded. Duke Irnfried owned the system and was responsible for most of the on goings that happen here; needless to say It was an easy task and Irnfried loved it. He lived in luxury with relatively little work aside from the governing and the constant invitation to parties of various nobles of course. There were several planets within the system with Javian prime as the system capital the farrest out planet was simply used as a sensor array and research into farther out systems it also detected ships coming in and out of the system. Lady Radegonda was in a Clarent-class Frigate simply patrolling when they detected unknown ships not coming from a established hyperlane and relayed information back to the capital before confronting them coincidentally a Curatorium ship also came into real space somewhat near the unknowns. <br>
<br>
"Curatorium ship, there are unknowns near your vicinity, are they with you?" She hailed the Curatorium ship then looked around at her crew. "Bring up a visual of the unknown ships" and as if on que a screen flickered up and showed a ship that Radegonda couldn't recognize. "does anyone recognize the ship?" She looked around but only got confused looks. It definitely looked armed but it didn't match any of the known pirate factions she had dealt with before, "Hail the ships!" <br>
"Unknown Vessels, you have entered Tempus Concordat space, idenitify yourselves or we will take military action." <br>
"call for assistance in case they are hostile" Radegonda sat back on her captains seat, sighing some stress out. There were pirates in this sector but definitely nothing as armed as that fleet, she'd have to retreat to a more secure possition where friendly ships could quickly help, that or FTL next to their biggest ship and start boarding actions incase they were hostile.<br>
<br>
Back on Javian prime Duke Irnfried was busy writing off papers of complains and various work accidents when he got the call that a potentially hostile fleet was spotted in the outer rim of the system. He wasnt exactly panicked, it could be altus ships coming unannounced, and judging by the lack of shots yet it seemed like it. However he was a duke of this system and he was responsible for everyone here, the job was simply too good not to be overly cautious. So he sent out the planetary fleet consisting of several dozen Tempestus ships. "Bring me a live feed of the ships" he requested for one of his servants and they did so without question. Eyeing the ships he squinted, "those are not Atlusian ships.."<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>St. Thomas Chapel<br>
The High Curator's Palace<br>
Canticle, Philemon</b>​</div><br>
"Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed."<br>
<br>
The priest's hands rose in the air, and with them the cooks, servants, and attendants of the palace as well as the Curator himself and his family. They left their kneeling boards down and walked silently to the ends of the rows, genuflecting and walking forward. Aldone Skyre, the High Curator, knelt behind his wife with their youngest child, Duncan, sitting in his arm and signed the cross. He grinned almost imperceptibly as he saw his son's tiny fingers trace the sign of the cross on his own body. Aldone approached the priest, an old and grizzled man of the cloth, who peered at him from behind thick spectacles. <br>
<br>
"The body of Christ." Murmured the priest.<br>
<br>
"Amen." Replied the Curator, and the priest blessed the small child as he walked on to the Deacon who held out a golden chalice. <br>
<br>
"The blood of Christ."<br>
<br>
"Amen." Replied Aldone, sighing as the bitter Indi Red burned his throat as if with holy fire. <br>
<br>
Behind them the choir sang the Eucharistic hymn. It was Advent, thus they pined the birth of Christ in their soft a capella.<br>
<br>
<i>"Adeste fideles læti triumphantes,<br>
Venite, venite in Bethlehem.<br>
Natum videte<br>
Regem angelorum"</i><br>
<br>
<i>"Venite adoremus <br>
Venite adoremus <br>
Venite adoremus <br>
Dominus..."<br>
</i><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>The Curator's Garden<br>
</b>​</div>The Curator had always liked the fact that the Christmas season corresponded with winter in his part of Philemon. He had seen <i>It's a Wonderful Life </i>and read <i>A Christmas Carol </i>perhaps a million times, and he couldn't think of a Christmas without cold and snow. As he sat in his armchair with a cup of coffee in one hand and the saucer in the other, he was flanked by his Master of Spies, Kaleb Reese sitting in a chair to the left and the head of his bodyguard, Centurio Hayel standing to his right. He watched as his son trailed behind his wife, who was clipping winter roses in the garden beyond the patio. The coffee warmed the palm of his hand and assaulted his nose with heavenly aromas. <br>
<br>
"My liege," Reese began, "I know you didn't order the contract, but Mr. Hensen is dead and the schematics for our rifle have been recovered."<br>
<br>
The Curator stared glassily at his wife and son. "Good... I suppose." The first few weeks as ruler of the Curatorium had been hard on Aldone. He was softhearted. He didn't have his father's stern conviction. Yet he was smarter than his father, who leaned on his advisors heavy like crutches. Kaleb Reese knew not what to make of Aldone Skyre. <br>
<br>
"We still have no definitive word on your stance given the likely upcoming military conflict between the Institute and the Hierarchy. The Generalismos are growing anxious that you have not commented." Cut in Hayel. <br>
<br>
"Let them be anxious," Aldone replied, leaning back. "So far, I am not convinced that it is in my Curatorium's best interest to pick a side at all. Merely to be on standby to assist the war refugees."<br>
<br>
Hayel blinked. "Sir, history does not wait for those on the sidelines."<br>
<br>
"History waits for no man, Hayel, I know," replied Aldone sardonically. "But truthfully, why soak my hands in blood and treasure for what? A favorable detente? God will protect us, Hayel."<br>
<br>
"That's what the <i>ancien regime </i>said before the planet was blown to ionic dust."<br>
<br>
"No, as I recall the refrain of the last Earthmen was <i>'we shall be as gods!'</i>" <br>
<br>
Hayel sighed, he couldn't out-quote his majesty. Or convince him of his folly in remaining idle while they had the opportunity to strike the barbarians before they arrived at the gates. <br>
<br>
Rosetia Skyre came in from the garden with a basket of clippings in one hand and Duncan resting on the opposite hip asleep. Aldone smiled and stood. The worries of running an interstellar empire faded back into the recesses of his mind as he beheld his beaming wife, a bit older than when they were in their twenties but possessed of that radiant grace and goodness which he loved so much in her. She handed their son off to him without stirring him awake. <br>
<br>
"Al, put him to bed I do believe I'm going to change into something more comfortable." She gave him a wink. <br>
<br>
Aldone smiled stupidly, "I'll put him down." He checked his watch. "A bit early for bed isn't it?"<br>
<br>
"Who said we were sleeping?"<br>
<br>
Hayel and Reese met each other's glance and shifted uncomfortably. Reese checked his watch. "Why yes, it's about that time." He muttered, stalking off with the Centurio in tow. <br>

"Our attack shall commence in three phases." Grand Admiral. Kren spoke as she stood next to Field General. Aiana, their differences being quite clear with the contrast of the General's dark green uniform and the Admiral's clear white one however they both shared similar golden lining on their attire to indicate their incredibly high-up positions. Both of the high-ranking women standing next to a large screen with a map of Institute space and the surrounding Routes going towards it. "Phase One shall commence with multiple incursions into Institute territory via CentRoute with additional fleets arriving with the usage of just their engines in-order to prevent the formation of a bottleneck at CentRoute Entrance: Bernard's Star. Unfortunately due to the ongoing situation at Yirath our forces will not be able to flank immediately into the Luhman 16 system but instead will arrive there in Phase Two of operations. By the end of Phase One we expect our initial invasion fleets to have destroyed anywhere from fifty to seventy percent of the Institute's Navy and to have established dominance over the FTL Depots at CentRoute Entrance: Bernard's Star and SolRoute Entrance: Luhman 16. Phase One is expected to take approximately twenty days from commencement." Kren continued confidently, occasionally pointing to markers that would appear as the General tapped at a device to move along with what was essentially a more advanced powerpoint. The other Generals and Admirals sat at their tables in the chamber belonging to the Hierarchy Defense Committee nodding with approval and some smiles at the information. Grand Admiral. Kren then turning to Aiana as the General nodded with a quite and courteous thanks and carried on with the next Phase.<br>
<br>
"Phase Two will commence immediately upon Phase One's completion and will be spearheaded primarily by our additional fleets arriving in the Luhman 16 System. The already severely weakened enemy naval forces will be too scattered and too damaged to offer any real resistance, as such we expect both the Luhman 16 and Alpha Centauri systems to fall within the space of around three to four days. From there we will commence orbital bombardments of strategic military installations, government facilities and Research &amp; Development labratories of both genetic engineering and military advancements. Current intelligence suggests that this shall take around eighteen hours to complete." A hand was raised from one of the many tables, Aiana stopping as she turned to look at the source, a lower-ranking but still talented Warrant General by the name of Tanx, one of the Hierarchy's many up and coming leaders of tomorrow. "Yes, Tanx?" Aiana questioned curiously to her subordinate officer. "What kind of resistance should our ground forces expect, ma'am? I doubt the Institute, as cowardly as they are will take kindly to an invasion force such as ours." Aiana folded her arms. "A very good question, young General. But our ground forces will not land until Phase Three, once all military resistance has been extinguished by our fleets. Grand Admiral, if you will?" She offered the opportunity to continue on with the presentation as Kren nodded in response.<br>
<br>
"Of course." She said as the officers all turned their attention to her once more. "Phase Three will commence upon the establishment of total space and ground superiority in the Bernard's Star, Luhman 16 and Alpha Centauri systems. An all-out, rapid assault on Sol from all fleets within annexed space, whilst ground forces will be deployed en-masse to annexed Institute colony worlds to secure and occupy. Mars will be the primary target of this invasion, however it's many large space station settlements will also need to be secured and locked down to ensure that no kind of offensive or defensive capabilities are enacted against our naval forces over Mars." She paused. "However Sol does pose a third party factor. The metalmen of Venus." With this, the room's collective curiosity rose almost immediately. "The Institute and Venerians have enacted some form of mutual defense treaty for the Sol system, any foreign force engaging in offensive acts will be attacked by both nations. As such we should expect heavy Venerian presence over Mars. This shouldn't prove any massive problem for our operations in the system, although the Caesar has forbidden us from invading Venus itself. Regardless, our fleets will be made aware of the possibility of counter-attacks from the Venerians however the hope is that they're first encounter with our forces will be enough to dissuade any further attacks. As such you have all been authorized to use any and all means to deter third party aggression during this campaign. We expect total capitulation of the Solar Institute within three weeks."<br>

"Dedication is... One word for it." The Vice-Director said as she leaned back into her seat, the flight towards the Commerce Center being smooth as the shuttle passed by towering structures that again continued littering the landscape. The MP troopers remaining silent as they sat in the back with their weapons at the ready, typical security for a meeting such as this. She nodded in response to the man's comments, the Sednians certainly were well known among the Hierarchy's officials for being able to provide most of what they needed and on time as well, which was most impressive given the nation's comparatively small size, although their treatment towards their own people was somewhat of a concern towards the more sympathetic individuals in the Femian leadership, it was nonetheless a non-issue to them as it got them the materials they needed when they needed them."I don't have the authority to give an official comment on that however I certainly don't see much of an issue in bringing our people closer together through the mutual benefits of trade. When we arrive at the Commerce Tower I shall take you to meet up with the Director of Commerce for Bethan, and then we can send for Miss. Pearlman to join us. Any opportunity to assist another nation struggling under the fanatic grip of the religious in Sol is one that the Hierarchy will consider taking." She said, taking the catalogue from the man and reading over it, skimming through the weapons. "They are undoubtedly well-made weapons, however I believe my counterparts in the armed forces are looking for a construction contract, not a development one."<br>

"Ma'am." The word came from a young Lieutenant as she saluted to her superior, Captain Fayte. The commanding officer of the Varnarmaður turning around to her subordinate and nodding once to confirm the lower-ranking officer's permission to speak as she done so quickly. "We have multiple unidentified vessels en-route through FTL to the outskirts of the system." Fayte placed her hands behind her back and held her hands, turning back to face the front-facing windows of the bridge as she calmly ordered. "Deploy the fleet, I want those vessels surrounded the moment they enter the system." The Lieutenant nodded firmly, "Yes, ma'am." As she turned around and marched off to relay the orders. Not minutes later and the several behemoth-sized Superior-class Battlecruisers accompanied by their Battlefrigates and Corvettes had begun making their way from the orbit of Tios to the edge of the system it was in. Arriving mere minutes before the unidentified ships were meant to and moving into interception position as the ships, now visible clearly on sensors arrived in the system. One large, military looking vessel surrounded by smaller, more civilian-appearing ones. "Communications!" Captain Fayte ordered loudly to the women who served as communications crew in the data pits on either side of her stand on the bridge, some of the officers looking up and nodding as they went to work establishing a clear line of communications between the Varnarmaður and the unidentified vessels. Which so far looked nothing like the vessels of the nations' the Hierarchy was already accustomed with. These ones were new, different. "Communications are established, Captain." A Communications officer called up to the woman.<br>
<br>
"Unidentified vessels, you have entered restricted space. Cease all operations immediately and hold position, prepare to be boarded. Any attempts to resist boarding parties will result in the destruction of your vessels. For your own safety, heed our warning." Fayte warned in the very same commanding, authorative voice that she'd honed over her many years as a commanding officer. Not long after, a group of smaller ships departed from one of the Varnarmaður's numerous hangar bays, this group being made up of a single command shuttle, two troop transports carrying a platoon of Naval Infantrywomen each and a small squadron of Nerio fighters to escort them to their location, that location being the primary vessel of the unidentified group, it appearing to be some kind of Dreadnought whilst four additional groups of ships made of the same compliment as the first also dispatched from the Varnarmaður, however these ships begun heading in the direction of the smaller, civilian transports. An iconic screeching sound could be heard as the Nerio fighters flew past the hangar bay of the unidentified Dreadnought, the command shuttle landing first as the troop transports landed soon after. The doors of the transports lowering as two lines of clean, white-armored naval infantrywomen stepped out with their rifles in hand however not raising them in an attempt to avoid a firefight. The Command Shuttle's single door and ramp now lowering as a vastly different dressed figure stepped out, two Navy Troopers, one on either side of her following as she stepped out onto the surface of the dreadnought's hangar. Face covered by a harsh-looking, tough mask, a black cape lowered down to her feet and an impressive albeit ragged looking uniform covering the rest of her.<br>
<br>
"Where's your commanding officer." Was all the woman said, voice coated and augmented by her mask.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The planet below was covered in blue flora, melding with the seas between the continents. The ship above, a hollowed-out asteroid equipped with thrusters, orbited the world, the name "COSS Mitochondria" visible on the side. Within it, several scientists were working on the genome of a local creature, a horse-sized scorpion-like creature. To establish a colony here, this organism would be uplifted and used to establish a new society, making long, expensive programs like terraforming not needed. Hopefully, the uplift would be complete in the next several months.<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, something more sinister was going on in the Ragnarok cluster. The Ragnarok Cluster was a cluster of hollow asteroids controlled by the Solar Forces, unknown to all other nations and even most other branches of the Institute. Fearing attack from the Hierarchy, the Solar Forces have reopened research into Project Justinian, the codename for several strains of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and prions that would target Femian DNA and kill them swiftly. Despite the outdated DNA samples, the various infectous agents would still hopefully be quite effective against most Femians. This was due to multiple factors, for example the agents not attacking anything with a Y chromosome. Furthermore, a good portion of Femians were older than 20, which was the age of the most recent samples. However, there were some issues: mainly the fact that Femians were close enough to baseline humans that even minor mutation could bring the agents into the Institute's human gene pool. However, the Solar Forces have determined that this is a risk they are willing to take, as it would still be overall less losses for the Institute thanks to their massive genetic diversity. If all else fails, less discriminate plagues like Plague Washington and Plague Alfonso would be unleashed, devastating entire ecosystems and killing most things that lived. It was hoped that this would be unnecessary.<br>
<br>
The meeting with the representatives of Sedna continued. "Hmmm... well, perhaps we can make another deal. We can offer you access to some very major warp hubs and lucrative markets as well. If you will give no official alliance, our army still mostly relies on mercenaries and weapons from other nations. We would be willing to purchase weapons in great quantities, as well as offer access to our warp hubs and markets, if you lower your trade with the Hierarchy. I promise you, trade with us will be far more lucrative than trade with them, and we're not asking you to cut trade with them entirely... yet. The people of Sol must stick together, and thanks to the alliance between us and Venus we are approaching that goal. With Sedna by our side, you would have access to massive potential markets, and we would be a united front against those who would be more... authoritarian in their approach to markets."<br>

7-D approached the small home. Inside was a young woman, identical to herself in every way. She appeared to be watching something, oblivious to the approaching threat. Like a shadow, 7-D made her way through the window, silent as falling snow. She approached the woman. Eventually she noticed something behind her. Turning around, she saw a perfect mirror image: the same genes, though different clothes. "What the-" She was cut off as 7-D quickly terminated her. A quick injection and she collapsed, dead nearly instantly. Now 7-D just had to get rid of the body, which was no small feat in a place with such high surveillance. Fortunately, this had been planned for. A second injection and hyper-decomposition fungi were added to the bloodstream. In 36 hours, this body would be soil. Until then, 7-D would keep it inside. Hopefully it wouldn't be discovered until it was decomposed, and when it was found after that, it would only be mildly strange that someone had a pile of dirt around. For now, 7-D would just have to lay low.<br>

Seven mushroom clouds rising above the final nation that stood against the unification... its been 7 hours since the start of the war and it ended with a horrible sight... A nation committed a nationalistic suicide...of all things.. why?</i>  His questions rang inside his head as he watches the entire nation dissappear off the face of Carlion from the cockpit of his Atmospheric fighter Jet. <br>
<br>
The entire Dominon Military was stunned by the event. not because of the Shockwaves, EMPs or the radiation, but their final push met with the horrifying event that will ring forever in the History of the Dominion and Carlion..<br>
<br>
"Garmr 2 this is DS Valais, return to base, over. there's no celebrations." Jerry responded nothing but silence as he complied with the order. The war was over, the Dominion became the sole ruling entity of Carlion but the effects of it was felt planetwide. the pulse of multiple detonations was powerful enough to be detected by scanners in the nearby systems <br>
<br>
<i>"You've been awfully quiet Sir Foulke."</i> P.J. Exclaimed after seeing the battleweary Jerry.<br>
<br>
<i>"Im just sad."</i> he mustered his strength to speak, still horrified with what he has seen. "<i>Now. leave me alone for abit. i need some Rn'R. Zyhpher is probably partolling around anyways." With that, he walks off to his room for somewell earned rest.</i><br>

he was unable to do anything but watch the Radioactive clouds rise into the Atmosphere<br>
<br>
<i>"Brother, Ground forces are reporting a mass influx of civilians evacuating. orders?" </i>Gauvain was ready to relay a reply, Artorius simply nodded without uttering a single word.<br>
<br>
<i>"All military units shall cease all military activities and aid the Civilians in anyway possible. They are now under the Dominion's responsible arms."</i> Gauvain spoke onto the microphone. <i>"I say again. all Military units cease all military activities and give aid to the Civilians. they are ours now."<br>
<br>
"Gauvain, Im worried that the Pulse from the Detonations will be detected by the neighboring star systems within 3-4 Parsecs of our location...

"My lord.... some of our ships have made contact, should we destroy the vermin? The fleet command belie-," cut short by a raise of the hand, Vericus silenced himself. "Our troops have no experience outside the simulators, whether it be slaughter or diplomacy, tell the captains they have full control of their scenarios." The Overlord commanded before sipping at his wine. "Also... the clearance level for any ships interacting with vermin has just been raised to L-2, give the order," the Overlord said with a smirk, after a few moments of thought he continued cutting his steak and sipping his wine.<br>
<br>
Unknown Sector 185<br>
ISS Frigate Conrad<br>
<br>
"Sir, orders directly from the Overlord," a young man had looked up from his console to relay. "Praise to he for such quick responses, what is the order corporal?" The captain questioned as he approached the main console. With a click of the button the boy played a video of the Overlord giving the order, in person. "You must make decisions for yourself in this matter, whether it be glory in battle or strives in diplomacy. You will not fail me, I believe in your abilities Captain Hemlock." The captain almost fainted, it was said in stories that an order directly from the Overlord meant godly blessings, he had even said his name. After a few moments of allowing tears to roll down his smiling face he wiped them away and pressed his hand on the intership communication console. "All ships! All ships! Listen now for objective command! To your battle stations! Arm the mass drivers and prepare for cloaking protocols!" After a few moments of pause to regain his integrity after such a great personal feat he continued,"Prepare Cloak..1...2...3..Cloak! All cloaked ships, Rim Formation!" Like they had never existed all of the ships in the exploration fleet seemingly vanished, except for the leading ship, which was not armed with a cloaking device. Where the ships had once been only a very few speckles of moving light invisible to the naked eye existed. "Patch me through to each of their ships' communications," Hemlock ordered.<br>
<br>
"Tôhwon is wægn geofonhûs Conrad, neoðanweard êower tud, to stefnian board êower. Weth pron ðe ic bræs sê in−hîwan of dôð Overlord. In vecht threat, vahn tud met wio anihilateon . Wearn weapons reordian bêo met wið eradication." The Captain had been staring directly into the communications screen while transmitting the message. His crimson eyes burned as his thin jaw relayed the words, obvious that the Perfected were a different breed of human altogether. The Conrad began its steady closing of the gap between ships, all of its weapons seemingly passive, not attempting direct attack.<br>

Unknown System 518<br>
ISS Dreadnought Crypt<br>
<br>
"Put your ear piece in and say exactly what I say. I knew this faction was waiting, that's why I sent the best captain and the best ship to this system, no mistake was made. " The Overlord spoke as he tapped a datapad crazily. Captain Derron of the Crypt was to talk with the unknown militants, but seeing that few still spoke the Traitor's Tongue, so the Overlord would be relaying his messages through the Captain. "Chosen, you have always served me dutifully, now is not a time to disappoint me. Go forth and bring the vermin to the Honor Room. Captain, you will go there aswell, prepare yourself for the most important day of your life." The Overlord speech skills were unmatched, but even now sweat perspirated on his face.<br>
<br>
"Get a battalion to the hanger bay before they arrive, prepare all inner defenses, you have five minutes! If these creatures are hostile I want the dogs ready to pounce, get every native on this ship on the rafters above the hanger, I want all pilots in ships and all boarding troopers prepared for deployment! Now move you fucking scum, the Overlord is testing us today!" Yelling at the top of his lungs was Major Teracht, the highest ranking officer on the vessel and the leader of the Chosen stationed on the ship.<br>
<br>
The strange ship entered the Crypt's hanger and a strange siren like sound came from the engines, a whining like that of an unoiled gear. The hanger was dark when the ship entered, only a few low lit lights by the pathway were on. When the first ship's doors opened the lights in the hangar flicked on in an attempt to blind and scare those leaving the ships. After the momentary stun most would suffer from the sudden brightness one could see the vastness of the hangar and almost five hundred guns trained on the ships, from automated turrets to the common rifle. Each figure surrounding the ships was in a black and red lined heavy armor, designed for intimidation and close quarters combat. All of the troops except the uplifted were wearing helmets, so unless the strangers noticed the differences in stature, they still would have no idea who they really were. Another clue was that only the uplifted were letting out audible snarls and growls as the unknown soldiers marched out of their ship. Standing twenty feet away from the lead ship's ramp was Major Teracht, a Chosen in a full power suit was almost two feet taller than the average perfected, surprisingly the unknowns weren't short in stature or seemingly thin and weak in muscle as the simulations had taught him. Nonetheless Teracht approached the ship, beam rifle in hand. One of the unknown's said something he didn't understand, it was true that they still spoke the Traitor's Tongue. Relaying the message to Derron and then to the Overlord he received a reply after a few, but awfully long, seconds of silence. "To the Honor Room." A simple sentence that Teracht did not understand a single word of, but after hoping it made sense to the strangers he turned his body and pointed to a pair of lusciously decorated doors a few hundred feet away, which was guarded by a dozen more Chosen. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: left"><b><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Enceladus, Sol System</span></span></b>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><b>ITN Vineta, Titanean Grand Fleet</b><br>
<br>
“Your Imperial Majesty, Emperor of Titan.” Lotte Harald bowed, bending his upper body as far as could be expected for the aging officer. A seemingly meaningless gesture considering the man’s status as an almost legendary figure. His standing in the Empire was enough to excuse him from nearly all royal protocol. Nevertheless, the Grand Admiral continued to follow it as a sign of his reverence for the Emperor.<br>
<br>
Ander turned around as the familiar voice mentioned his title, “Grand Admiral, there is no need for a man of your prominence to bow. You know I regard you like I would my own flesh and blood.”<br>
<br>
“You honor me with your words, yet you are still my Emperor and I shall treat you as such.” Harald walked closer to the Emperor, who stood at the edge of the command deck. It overlooked Enceladus, the last moon still independent from the Empire. It wouldn’t be long until they too fell under the rightful rule of Titan, ending the centuries of civil war which had plagued Saturn. As they spoke, millions of soldiers from the Imperial Titanean Army prepared to storm the moon.<br>
<br>
“Very well. Now tell me Grand Admiral, where is the Enceladean fleet? I didn’t expect them to leave their home undefended like this. After all, they must realize what we will do to it.” Ander moved his hands behind his back, interlocking them above his waistline.<br>
<br>
Lotte cleared his throat before responding, “We believe they have fled the system with a sizable contingent of troops, as well as the majority of their government. I’ve sent the ITN Tirawa to track them down, its armed with enough antimatter to destroy their entire fleet.”<br>
<br>
“Disgusting…” The Emperor paused for a few seconds. “Begin the orbital bombardment, I will not accept such cowardice from our cronian brothers without punishment. Stoyebrak is to be flattened entirely, leave nothing but a crater in its place if you must.”<br>
<br>
“It shall be done my Emperor.” The Grand Admiral bowed again before excusing himself from the Emperor’s presence. Ander looked down at the moon, where it was currently night time. Enceladus was the only cronian moon to have been fully terraformed, allowing for its population to nearly rival Titan’s. It was a shame their rivalry would end so soon; the moon was lit up by thousands of explosions seconds later.<br>

<b><u>Location: HMS Edelweiss Crashsite</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"Friendlies? Captain, are you getting this? The unknowns claim to be friendly." Lydia reported, toggling the zoom function of her Strider's optics she had a good look at the uniforms and most importantly, the emblems. Her Strider lowered its weapon slightly. "Confirmed unknowns as Purview soldiers. How should I proceed, Captain?"<br>
<br>
"Well done. New orders, secure the VTOL crashsite and search for survivors. We'll have a small team bring our... guests in for questioning." Acknowledging Commander Eirika's orders, Lydia piloted her Strider away from the group she had under her mercy, just in time to catch a glimpse of her fellow Crew emerge from a nearby airlock and holding the Purview soldiers at gunpoint. As her Strider made contact with the muddy swampland, she took note of a lizard leaving something near the ship. <br>
<br>
"Carthwright reporting, the locals seem to have left a present for us. Request a science team to investigate." Lydia radioed the ship. Without waiting for a response, she continued onward. Her Strider pushing trees aside as it plodded through the swampland before reaching the crashed VTOL. The sight that greeted her was odd. There was signs of life in the crash but she never expected to find Tempus Knights in.... wherever they are right now. Add the fact that the locals have them surrounded makes this awkward.<br>
<br>
".... This is a pleasant surprise..."<br>

Lieutenant Anders barked as Daniel and his fellow security officers rushed out of the airlock and quickly surrounded the Purview soldiers. Their SMGs and one lone shotgun trained on them as they approached. Daniel himself kept his weapon aimed at the brave lad who shouted out that they were friendly. <br>
<br>
"Alright then.... You lot will keep those weapons down while we escort you on board. I don't want any funny business to happen while we bring you inside. Well then, chop chop. Let's get a move on." Anders smirked under his rebreather as he gestured for his men to begin shepherding the Purview soldiers towards the airlock. <br>

<b><u>Location: Unknown Location, Yirath</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"-sara.... Isara, you still alive?" A calm, gentle voice roused Isara from her unconscious state. Her memories were a blur but the moment she remembered the panic, the alarms, a rough hand on her back shoving her into the escape pod.<br>
<br>
"ADRIAN!" Isara jolted to full consciousness before the harness halted her. Looking around, she saw that she startled the man who woke her up. Leading Hand James Williams was looking at her like she was some odd specimen but that slowly changed to that of a soft smile. "Sorry Sis... That was one hell of a ride eh? Come on, there's another pod that landed due East and I need you to put on this rebreather before I can blow the pod door open." <br>
<br>
"James...? Ow... my head..." Isara grunted as her head began to pound. Her brother quickly helped her undo the safety harness and get her up onto her feet. Using her brother's shoulder for support, she numbly began to slip the rebreather on. A quick vacuum seal check and HUD update later, they two siblings were ready to head out of the cramped capsule. A quick slap of the discharge button blew the explosive bolts, launching the door away. As the pair stepped out of the capsule, Isara's eyes grew wide with wonder.</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"So much greenery...." She muttered, kneeling down to feel the sticky mud their feet sank slightly into. James was busy scrambling up the pod to get a better look around. After a few minutes of scanning his surroundings with his binoculars, he came to a conclusion.<br>
<br>
"...... I have no idea where we are." </span></span></div>

As the woman approached the two combat units at the front of the six droid formation raise their shields. They thrust their arms out in front of them, turning them horizontal first, then bringing them back as to press the tops of their shields firm against their chests. Once done they quickly lower them to be flat against their chests and hold them there with their weapons still pointed towards the sky.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">The thinner unit introduces itself once Larissa finishes. "I am hand 1-1-3, sworn to the eternal service of Dianna. A pleasure to be graced by your arrival and the arrival of those whom you trust with your safe keeping. We weren't expecting visitors today let alone royalty I must confess, but your company is one I'm certain all of Venus will find a delight and will most definitely warrant queries of its repetition."<br>
<br>
They spy the sword and with little time to waste, accept it. The droid carries it flat across its hands and offers a polite bow of its head before gesturing towards a flight of stairs that lead downward from the landing pad towards the 'city'. "I'll see to it that Veneria receives this item. I apologise for our lack of gifts. Please, shall we do away to the interior?"' By now it was clear that all of these droids had been programmed with an accent that resembled old Earth's French, suggesting that all inside also spoke a similar accent or at the least enjoyed the sound of it.<br>
<br>
The group begins to move towards the steps. Once there the two units that flanked 'hand 113' begin leading the group, while the other three remain behind to follow in after them. The stairs have glass banisters with what appear to be some form of smooth, white posts. At the very top and the very bottom of the stairs are hard plastic statues with brass plaques that read, 'Honour the ancients.' The statues themselves appear to depict a large raven standing over the top of either a cracked egg, or standing guard over what appears to be a crow.<br>
<br>
They arrive at the door where the first two combat units stand guard on either side of the door while the other three continue behind the group. The entrance leads into a small tube that features another set of doors not far off and a set of racks which appear perfect for holding weapons of any kind. The hand waits for the doors to open and as they do, it steps inside waiting for the others to follow. "Please leave your weapons here before continuing."<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><u>Official Venerian envoy, Federal house of consuls, Reed system.</u></span><br>

The droid chosen to represent the interests of the Venerian foundling remains seated at the table as both heads spoke. It was independent in thought as to prevent jamming devices from rendering it mute. It takes into account everything it can, observing the two heads, the silent onlooker, and most details in the room. There was an ideal script they wanted to follow for this situation. The united systems would ask for aid, maybe even a copy of the transmissions, and the Venerians would play the part of the innocent friends from far away. <br>
<br>
Sure enough, the two ask for aid and a copy of the transmissions, exactly what had been planned. The emissary is eager to indulge them sliding its hand across the table and turning it over palm upwards. From within its palm comes a small rectangle shaped card. It was a strange combination of colours and seemed paper thin. "Unaltered, pure logs of what we received. We've reason to believe that we weren't alone in receiving this exact plea for assistance."<br>
<br>
The droid's build was one of a thin and unimposing nature. Its face was screen that displayed a simplistic green circle alternating between basic facial expressions that could easily be illustrated. With one that displays thought, it ponders the request for aid before replying, "You speak of whatever help we can provide. Of course this would suggest basic supplies such as batteries and basic munitions, but we feel a better suited alternative to the current situation would be boots. Unwavering, already equipped, boots. How would the united systems feel about such an offer?"</span></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>The Bridge of the <i>Chalcedon</i></b>​</div><br>
The Captain and his mates were in a state of frantic dismay as the enemy ships disappeared from radar before them. By now, they had decided that these warships had less than friendly intensions. As the crew frantically attempted to get the engines repaired, the Concordant hail came across the signalman's terminal who read it back to the captain as he stared out the window at the large ship that hadn't cloaked on approach.<br>
<br>
"Tell the Concordant that these ships are as foreign to us as to them. We're lying dead in the water because of a cracked power core seal and we can't fire up our warp engines without ionizing the crew. They're going to try to board us, but we'll hold them off as long as we can. We could really use the assist."<br>
<br>
The signalman keyed this into his terminal and sent it back to the Concordant flagship, meanwhile another hail cut in across the command pit on the viviphone, this was a video message of an unnerving, strangely human form conversing in a language nobody on the bridge could understand, save for a few choice words "weapon" and "board" being a few. It was time now to decide surrender or fight. If they surrendered, they might be spared, but they might also be killed. If they fought, they might be able to buy time for the Concordant navy to come to their relief. Captain Vinver chose to fight.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Forward Cargo Bay<br>
</b>​</div>"All crew, enemy ship is coming in to board. Seal all exits and prepare for a fight. If this ship falls, it's coming out of your paycheck." The Captain sounded confident and resolute over the PA system, but Robert Wright did not mirror his apparent conviction. He knelt behind a makeshift barricade with a combat rifle hanging from his shoulder by a strap. He had fired a weapon: once, and it was a laser pistol meant for shooting varmints back on Indi. That meant, no recoil and not nearly as heavy. The rifle he held in his hand weighed ten pounds with all its accoutrements: an extended magazine, a recoil sight, a full stock, and a bayonet. He stared at the gold-coloured brass bullets in the top of the spare magazine, tall as his middle finger and about as big around. <br>
<br>
"Never seen someone so fascinated by a bullet." The nurse chimed in, sitting on the floor beside him and resting on her rifle. He noticed her name-patch on her shoulder for the first time: Mary Ross. <br>
<br>
"I've never shot a rifle before." He said solemnly. "I've never killed a man."<br>
<br>
"Me either." The nurse said matter-of-factly and shook her head. "I suppose this was bound to happen sooner or later. I just..." She trailed off. <br>
<br>
The security officer standing nearby was wearing a full suit of combat armor. On the right breast of the chestplate, a small iconograph of St. Michael the Archangel was emblazoned below the Freighter's Guild logo. The soldier was praying softly.<br>
<br>
"<i>Saint Michael Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.</i>"<br>
<br>
Robert silently signed himself when the soldier was done and whispered, "<i>In nomine Patris</i>, <i>et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.</i>"<br>
<br>
The tension in the hold was palpable as the dozens of crewmen and security officers awaited the boarders.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><b><span style="font-size: 22px">Yerith / Clides D3GP Surface</span></b><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px">Chief Master Sergeant Ethan Bailey</span></span></b><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Bailey had taken temporary shelter within the wreckage of his craft, alongside the rest of his crew, miraculously surviving such an impact. They awaited some sort of extraction. They had a hope in their hearts that the infantry would do a U-turn. At this point, Bailey didn’t even care who came for them. He just hoped whatever was coming get there fast. He wasn’t sure how long he could hold his breath for.<br>
<br>
“Chief, I see movement.” The co-pilot tapped his superior’s shoulder. And he was right. Shuffling beyond the vegetation, and a lot of it. As whatever it was emerged, Bailey recognised it to be that wildlife from earlier. The wildlife he was shooting at. They came from all sides. Given how Bailey almost killed them earlier, it was likely that these Boots would try the same thing.<br>
<br>
“Bill, your gun still working.” A man in a flight suit struck a thumbs up in response. “I think I can trust you to cover our arses.”<br>
<br>
But soon, a human voice broke the tension of the atmosphere. A distant digitised extract of dialogue, ordering the crew to ‘come out’. Followed soon after was banging on top of the craft, producing an orchestra of weighted steps ever present within the cabin. It must have been whoever shot them down, out to finish the job. <br>
<br>
The pilot checked his ammunition. 45 rounds was what he had to spare. Honour bound, the crew would not simply submit to such demands. “The events of today only get more interesting by the second.” A good choice of last words. <br>
</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><b>Sergeant Christopher Agne</b><br>
</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Sergeant was a bit surprised with his special ‘greeting’. Whoever these people were, they sure made fine hosts. Gunning down your aircraft and pointing guns at your face. Most likely a gesture of thanks from another culture.<br>
<br>
“Let’s make it easier on the octonauts, lads.” The Sergeant’s comrades nodded. Each one lobbed their weapon at the welcoming party, each with a bit of intentional force provided by their exoskeletons.<br>
<br>
“They deserve the home advantage. Bare your backs.” A brief aura of chuckling filled the atmosphere, before the song of nature affirmed its dominance.<br>

</div></b>​</div>Lady Radgegonda was about to order an retreat back to the main planetary fleet coming this way to confront the unknown fleet. After the transmission seemingly resembled hostile actions with focus on the words of "Annihilate" and "Eradication" right after most of their ships disappeared from sensors until her ship got the message from the Curatorium ship that it was dead in the interstellar waters with something wrong with their engines. That was enough for her to reconsider a tactical retreat, they had to protect their ally, when she saw the enemy ship approach the Curatorium ship she knew she had to act fast. "Redirect Snap-space drives within 3 kilometers of the target! Get the boarding crew onto the torpedoes! Get Avaril's weapon systems ready to fire at the cloaked ships when they retaliate." She was followed by a chorus of 'yes ma'ams' and soon enough her ship was a buzz of activity with heavily armed knights running about and adepts working on their calculations. <br>
<br>
The AI Avaril appeared on a hologram next to Radgegonda, it took the appearence of a woman dressed in a robe not too dissimulator from a noble. "Are you sure you want to do this? they have not shown any hostile actions as of yet" <br>
"yes, our allies are asking for assistance and we cannot leave them behind when they get slaughtered. Curatorium soldiers aren't as resistant as even the adepts" <br>
The hologram of the AI bowed. "if it is your choice my knight" With that the AI flickered out and Radgegonda was greeted with a screen of all weapon systems primed and ready. <br>
Not soon after that did she get the confirmation of three boarding torpedoes full with a squad of knights ready to be fired.<br>
<br>
The Crow's feather, name of the frigate Lady Radgegonda commanded, Snapped out of existence from where it was perched making its short ranged FTL near the enemy ship. Inside the boarding torpedoes was quiet as a 8 knights per torpedo readied themselves for boarding onto a unknown hostile ship. inside The Crow's feather however knights were still getting ready to board other torpedoes, knights getting into their armor and grabbing their weapons off racks. The bridge was eerily quiet as everyone awaited the battle before them. <br>

The Argents Followed closely behind her, their unloaded weapons held in their hands they attempt to look as professional as they could preparing to do what was necessary to protect their princess. Larissa spotted the statues and stared at them curiously as they passed by them. "if i may, what are those statues about?" It couldnt be a coincidence that they had crow iconography could it? When the group arrived at the entrance to a building or what she assumed the capital of their planet, she complied with the orders placing her personal sword on a rack. Looking back at her Argents they look at each other then look back at her. She smiled with a small laugh to herself before asking the robots. "Can they stay here? it seems they aren't every keen with leaving their weapons behind unchecked." Right as she said this two Argents stepped forward simultaneously, "Princess, we will go with you" They walked over to the weapon rack and placed their guns and swords on there before taking their place at their princess's side. <br>

He smiled. He wasn't worried about the Feds. The meeting was concluded and on the off chance the Feds somehow found out about it his guards shouldn't have a problem protecting him. "Here" he said, handing the man an address "Once the money is there your weapons and munitions shall arrive, I didn't know you wanted vehicles but thats a non-issue, I will need to get them but they should arrive by the day after tomorrow, provided I receive payment ofcourse." With that he stood up from the bar and planned to make way back to his ship<br>

He was glad to hear that they were after a construction contract as that meant more money but also a more long standing trade deal. You can offload a bunch of weapons in a day if you needed too, would be expensive and not worth while for a nation currently at peace but it was possible. With Construction you needed a constant stream of materials. Often you also wanted engineers and architects to help things run smooth and, of course, you had to supply the means to construct most of the time, which for a nation like the Femians meant you wanted someone you could trust. "Ofcourse, that seems perfectly fine. You tell me what you need, I will give you a rough price, pass the information onto my boss and your Director and her can find the best compromise, as always!"<br>

He nearly scoffed out loud. "I am sorry, reducing trade with the Femians is akin to asking us to use our armed forces as your personal body guards for free. Strong trade relations exist between us and are a major stabalizing factor to our economy. While I am willing to invest a great deal to continue trading with out nearby friends in Sol and strengthen relations, The Femian Hierarchy, well.. they are our best customers at this time.<br>

<b><u>Location: Ulester/Avaron System Border</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"Status?" Nicole asked as the ship's alarm was lifted and the crew was put on high alert. There was mild confusion among the crew of the HMS Ford.  <br>
<br>
"Multiple large scale explosions detected within a 3 parsec radius from the next system, Ma'am. We're currently unsure of the actual nature of these explosions although scans of nearby celestial bodies have shown that its not a gamma ray burst or a pulsar." The Radar Operator reported from his station. His eyes scanning through the data read out from the ship's sensors. Group Captain Nicole mulled over the information and glanced at the galactic map.<br>
<br>
"Hm.... That sector is occupied by unknowns... Very well. Open communications to all ships." Nicole ordered as the bridge crew immediately went to work. A fleet wide communication usually means warping. And warping usually leads to other units being mobilized. The Communications Officer quickly set up the line to the other 3 ships in their small fleet.<br>
<br>
"Attention all ships. We shall now begin investigation of the unknown energy pulse detected from the next Sector. All ships are to follow the HMS Ford out of the Ulester System and to the following spacial coordinates. We warp in 5 minutes. Over and out." Nicole's orders were short and precise. The men and ships under her command working like clockwork under her watchful eye. As the time for warp came close, all crew had already made preparations with all pilots on duty under standby orders.<br>
<br>
"Its time. All ships, warp!" <br>

I'm ready for launch." Lancet hummed as he flicked a few switches and checked his gauges as his Duban interceptor was being guided into one of the service elevators. As soon as it was locked into place, heavy duty shutters sealed it in before raising it up to the carrier's runway. The plane jerked slightly as the elevator completed its task. <br>
<br>
"Warlock 1, prepare for take-off. Standby. ..... Plane is locked in position. Electromagnetic launcher charged. All checks complete. Good luck out there, Lancet." Astolfo did a cheeky salute in the direction of the bridge but he knew the enclosed cockpit only allowed him to look out. Gripping the control sticks, he ignited his thrusters as the countdown began. After 3 counts, his plane was launched off into space. After doing a couple of laps around carrier to wait or the rest of his flight, they took off towards their target zone.<br>
<br>
"Hey Lancet, think this will be an easy job?" Kris, callsign Crystal, happily mused over the shared comms.<br>
<br>
"Not sure, Crystal. Why not ask Hammer or Prism? I'm sure they can tell you." Lancet chuckled as he replied. There was shared laughter among the 4 pilots as they carefully maneuvered through a nearby asteroid cluster and closed the distance to their targetzone. Their planes should turn up on anyone's sensors by now.<br>

Alright everyone, step away from the VTOL this instant. I'll handle this." Lydia ordered as her Strider walked up to the crashed VTOL. A few flicks of the controls later and she reconfigured the Strider's shields to coat its right arm in energy. Pulling back on the right control module, the Strider raised its hand and drove its fingers through the VTOL's roof before peeling it away like someone opening a can of tuna.<br>

Daniel muttered as he held the forcefully surrendered rifle. After giving it a once over, he stowed it away and continued keeping his own weapon trained on the Purview soldiers. Ignoring the rather immature way they were treating the whole thing, he forcefully prodded the joker's back with his muzzle forcing him into the airlock first. Once all the Purview men are inside, the door slammed shut... With the Atlusians staying outside.<br>
<br>
"Think they'll survive decontamination?" A young sailor named Jeffrey asked before he started fiddling with the Purview rifle. Daniel simply shrugged before looking up towards the sky, contemplating his situation. <br>
<br>
"Well Jeff... I just want to survive this place and go home..."<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Tios, Outer Colonies, Femian Space<br>
Unidentified Vessel, 28th Fleet Blockade<br>
</b><br>
The strange usage of lighting within the vessel itself was noted by the Femians who had arrived, it doing little to their vision as their helmet visors shielded their eyes from most potential injury. Though the sheer amount of troops that had their weapons pointed towards the boarding party was noted even more so, one of the naval infantrywomen behind the black cloaked figure speaking into her comms device on the side of her helmet, contacting the fleet and informing them of the less than welcoming posture of the unidentified soldiers. Captain Fayte wasting little time in ordering the fleet's weapons to turn on the largest of the group of ships, if their boarding party were to be attacked then the ship would be destroyed within moments depending on how strong its armor was, of course the Femians on-board it knew that and were more than content to go down with the potentially hostile vessel if need be. The cloaked figure staring at the armored man across from her for a few moments after he spoke clearly in English, or at least the closest he knew of it. Turning to the doors where he had pointed before proceeding towards them at a calm pace, the naval infantrywomen slowly then turning around where they stood and following her in formation, weapons still lowered in a professional manner, trained not to show any fear even if they felt it, though whether or not any of them actually did feel threatened was to be determined but it could be assumed that having such a powerful figure leading them into this unknown ship would certainly quell most worries given what the naval infantrywomen knew about their leader for this mission.<br>
<br>
The doors shifted open automatically for the group as they proceeded down a long, dark hallway decorated with various different statues sharing a common theme, the subject of which they were made. Every statue had the same man present which was of interest not to the naval infantrywomen who kept their focus straight ahead as they usually did but to the cloaked figure at the front, who believed this man to be some kind of religiously or politically important figure to whoever these people were, perhaps even both. In-fact the more she took everything in the more and more this entire ship appeared to be centered around some kind of religious belief-at least more so than any other military vessel the Femians had seen, there were men wearing holy looking robes that strolled around going about their business although they were outnumbered by the more ordinary looking militaristic officers and enlisted, only stopping to see who those that had boarded their vessel make their way to the so called "Honor Room" whatever that was, the only sound emitting from the group being the ordered thundering of pure white boots marching along in line behind a set of rugged black ones and of course the NCO of the infantrywomen's voice ocassionally answering any questions on the status of the group from the Captain of the Varnarmaður although every member of the group minus their leader did have video and audio recorders placed into their helmets to keep track of the mission and the individual infantrywoman's activities throughout it usually in-order to ensure quality in the field of work and obedience but also to give the commanding officer, in this case Captain Fayte a constant stream of information.<br>
<br>
However when the large group actually arrived at their destination, the contrast to the rest of the ship was quite vast. Where the rest of the ship was dark and dingy, industrial and very much centered around practicality and apparently cost-effectiveness, this room was the polar opposite. This room was very clearly built around its design, it held an important status to these people whoever they were and it was reflected as such in the way that it was decorated, it looked more like an art museum than part of a military vessel. Though the naval infantrywomen maintained their strict posture as they stood away from the black-robed figure that led them, now standing in a horizontal line on either side of her as opposed to the vertical line that they had been standing in before. The masked figure in the middle now speaking up to the man who was seemingly the Captain of the vessel standing across from her near the center of the room. "You have intruded on space belonging to the Femian Hierarchy. Who are you and why have you come here." She asked flatly, expectantly.<br>

The uniformed woman smiled, it was to be expected that the Sednians of all people would be the most enthusiastic at such an offer, although stereotyping was never a suite of the Vice-Director's, it seemed that such conceptions were entirely accurate when it came to the people of Sedna, not that she was complaining of course. Though she did think that this kind of trade deal was something better suited to the higher-up's of both nations due to the unmatched secrecy of this construction project, in-fact the woman wasn't even sure on whether or not her boss even knew what these materials from Sedna would be used for. Those snobby Navy types were always so damn secretive about every little thing they did, it was infuriating for when any of the other branches ever tried to work with them. "Indeed. We need a various amount of materials, most of which our superiors can discuss with one another at a later date but for now, the resources we require the most of currently consist of Reinforced Dynasteel, Palaglass, Refined Lonalite, Stares Plastic and Rare Vesp Elements. What will your price be, reminder that we'll be purchasing these materials in the hundreds of millions of metric tons."<br>

Casos, an out of the way, barely populated colony world of the Femian Hierarchy that's only notable feature was just how flat it was. Excluding the odd few hills or even mountains the small mineral extracting colony was as bland and uninteresting as a planet could be with a few exceptions. Which is what made it such a perfect location to house the Federation of the Defiant's headquarters, a massive underground complex built into one of the few mountain ranges on the planet, surrounded by a vastness of completely flat salt plains covered by a constantly growing and shrinking amount of shallow water overseen by an always bright blue sunny sky. It was a picturesque view to be sure but that wasn't the reason for the Defiants' choice as mentioned before. Although small, the rebel movement which had been formed a few decades ago consisted of a small amount of Femians who more than anything wanted to live a life without the normal pressures that were enacted on them by both their peers and their government and also who wanted to see an end to the military-centric culture and functioning of their people. People who wanted to see change brought about from a place other than the military who always seemed to be the dominant voice that was heard above all else in Femian space and people who wanted to see the Hierarchy's foreign policy shift to a more friendly nature, rather than one that was always in a state of constant readiness for a war that would probably never even come. Their tactics were mostly peaceful however they were not above engaging in conflict with government forces if it was for a justifiable cause, such as in self-defense for their own installations and members, alongside sympathisers. One could argue that this was the Federation's most promising feature, their utmost devotion to their moral code and the wellbeing of their sisters across the Hierarchy, even those who would serve in the military complex.<br>
<br>
But today, what was most notable about Casos, to the Defiant troopers who stood guard outside the front entrance to their headquarters at least. Was the attention that it had brought, it having started as just a spot of black in the distance, only appearing over the horizon at first before approaching and growing larger and larger, one of the dumbfounded, casually-dressed but still uniformed troopers taking out a pair of binoculars and focusing in on the unknown figure, spotting a curious sight indeed as it appeared to be a young Femian--no two young Femians. Both in what was definitely civilian attire though attire that wasn't suited to the rather high temperature of Casos, so there was little doubt from that fact that these two young women in the distance were from another world. The two troopers looking towards one another curiously before the one of them took out their comms device and called in the potential disturbance to their command post below the plains they stood on just in-case these two civilians were to cause them any trouble. It would be a shock to say the least if this turned out to be some kind of deceit on the Hierarchy's part but that may not have been the case they bought thought as the women approached, one of the two smiling and both looking incredibly tired and worn out, no doubt due to their less than appropriate choice of clothing for such a hot planet. The other one not smiling due to the fact that she was downing a large bottle of water. "Can we.. Help you?" One of the Defiant troopers questioned, the nonchalant quality of the question stemming from the fact that it wasn't exactly a secret that most of the local natives to the colony knew of the HQ's existence, but not wanting to attract any government and therefore unwanted attention, didn't report it in. <br>
<br>
"Yeah.. Yeah you can." One of the two spoke. "We have some information that's of vital importance, Nata Kelvek needs to hear what we--what my friend has to say." She finished, turning with a look of concern to the woman in question, her friend, who shared that same look in its entirety. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Astarte System<br>
Planet Hohenheim<br>
Baron Cethegus</b><br>​</div>The old baron woke up from his bed, after a few weeks in FTL traveling to the unmarked system of Astarte he was getting annoyed with staying in the ship for so long. But the slight annoyance was worth it especially after it was a direct command from the Queen herself, although whether or not it was cause she wanted to get rid of him or not was still up in the air. Yawning the old man got up from his bed and went to do his usual daily routine, greeting his family, brushing his teeth, breakfast, etc. After the morning groom was done he got dressed up and walked outside into his colony ship, or well, the queens colony ship that he was tasked with governing and managing. it was very much a practical ship with the necessary grow engravings and what not. "B-Bzz-t" The intercom came on. "Arriving to Astarte system, in T-minus two minutes" The baron looked up somewhat surprised, he knew that the journey was at an end finally but he didnt expect it once he woke up.<br>
<br>
Walking over to the ships bridge Cethegus watched as the crew and peasants run around getting their things ready it was truely abuzz, it reminded him of the start of the journey when ever was excited to be one of the first colonization plans in decades, even centuries! However the excitement died down when everyone got comfortable and realized that the length to get there is going to be a long one. Once he walked into the bridge the ship flew out of the wormhole, a truely amazing view when all the light went from a distorted view with stars flying all around them then slowly comes into focus before him. The entire crew of the bridge gasp once the sensor operator pulled up the planet previously named Hohenheim, it was a lush forestry planet with large tundras and ice caps on its poles, the equator was mostly oceans with its continents near the poles. It seemed like a colder planet than the long ranger sensors predicted, no matter, they were used to the cold.<br>

However, there was an anomaly emanating from the planet, a unusual purple looking, Haze that Cethegus couldn't figure out what it was it definitely looked suspicious but the sensors couldn't figure out what it was. After a while of confusion it was determined it was because of the planet's high electromagnetic field, the haze might've been a visual anomaly although it did look rather gaseous. The colony ship started to approach the planet cautiously at first to continue to monitor the planet, firing off probes and drones to find the best location to set up a city.</div>

One with a cloth covered helmet and one with a heavy coat on.</span><br>
<div style="text-align: center">​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">"You believe that shit?" The man in the heavily insulated helmet spoke up, a light on the front of his helmet lighting up when he did.<br>
<br>
"What shit?" The man next to him said, the snow making crunching sounds as they walk through it.<br>
<br>
"The shit the Premier said, about life beyond this little solar system." He scoffed before he stated the words, like he was disgusted. Pulling out a device that looks to be a pocket watch, opening it the device gave off a faint yellow glow, like a neon resturant sign. "Sixty metres."<br>
<br>
"Maybe, I don't know man, i mean why would humans try to get away from Earth? Theres still a chance we could all eventually go back, I know i wanna be able to see it one day." He pushed the other man slightly, trying to get him to speed up.<br>
<br>
"Look, Molin, if we were able to go back in the next hundred years we would have been preparing by now. Stop being so positive, it'll just hurt you in the long run." <br>
<br>
"Fuck man, i read that shit about what it was like back then and it seems so carefree. Before the bombs, i mean, and it's like, if my kids could just experience that, it would mean the world to me." He gave off a depressed tone, like Earth was lost yesterday.<br>
<br>
"Kids? You? Who'd marry someone that looks like you?" The soldier with the insulated helmet stopped, and snickered while getting in a protective stance.<br>
<br>
Molin automatically ran up and kicked him in the shin, making the soldier with the insulated helmet double over in pain. "Hey, fuck you, dog. Last time i checked you were still living in a trashed apartment in the Civitatem ghettos."<br>
<br>
"Godamnit, I forgot to wear greaves, <i>god I hate you, </i>y'know sometimes I just..." He watched as Molin kept walking wincing as he got up and followed him.<br>
<br>
"C'mon man, we need to get there as soon as possible!" Molin started to break off into a jog.<br>
<br>
As the two men approached their objective they gazed in awe as the blizzard cleared and gave way to a military installation, six-hundred feet high, maybe higher, multiple AA guns on the outside of it, megaphones being blared, soldiers running around left and right in tight formations, and vehicles speeding to locations unknown.<br>
<br>
"Well this is where we've been stationed, huh?" Molin shot a long gaze at the huge building.<br>
<br>
"Yep, good ol' Fort Patriae."</span><br>

Boarding Ship<br>
"Then I said,"Do you know the difference between heresy and ignorance? Same difference between a spade and a shovel!" After a few quick laughs the younger man that had made the joke took a swig of some sort of mineral water. "Can you believe that some of the people in the genetics field haven't read every volume of Overlord's Reign? I know it's not a requirement but seriously, who doesn't own a copy?" The young man was named Yeron, due to protocols no Chosen could be spared from the ship for security purposes but, it just so happened that Yeron had once been through Chosen training. While he failed in the final physical exams of the program, he was still a very elite soldier in his own right. "Well.... better make sure may Traitor's Tongue is still up to speed, I haven't practiced since we had my seventh son a year ago," Yeron said while taking out a planning book and showing seven pictures of boys, teenagers to an infant. After those around him heard they all cheered and slapped his arm, seven was the perfect number for boys to have, all parents reached for it. "There's the vermin's ship, sir. Prepare yourself." The pilot of the ship announced as he engaged his reverse thrusters.<br>
<br>
"Are you ready sir," a guard asked from behind Yeron. "More ready than I'll ever be, we're making contact with possibly hostile creatures.... For Overlord's sake stop pointing your rifle forward! Don't want to start an intergalactic war do ya? Purely a political analysis right now, no reason to slaughter the vermin." Yeron scolded a guard when he saw that the man had been pointing his rifle directly forward at the landing pad door, he knew that was the standard simulation procedure so he wouldn't report him. Yeron took a deep breath and pressed a green button beside the door, after a few automated clicks and clanks of the door locks and holds it began its quick dissent straight down. When Yeron got his eyes on those within the hangar his cybernetic reflexes kicked in forcing him to roll forward off the ramp and onto the hangar behind the ships landing gear. Through luck alone he wasn't caught in the first few shots, but he took hold of that luck and went running with it. While he felt a slight panic in the back of his mind years of subliminal sleep messages and implants made these thoughts into wet paper.<br>
<br>
After Yeron had rolled to momentary safety he instinctively pulled up his wrist console to see the current damage. Out of the twelve men onboard the ship only four had been killed from the initial shots, three injured, and five were unharmed and returning fire. The pilot of the ship had requested permission to arm up, request denied. Three K-9 units were on board in their locked compartment, <b>LOCKS DISENGAGED</b>. Looking around at his surroundings for the first time he realized that they were vastly outnumbered and out positioned. After less than a second of pause his cybernetic implants kicked in again, "Right Flank Push, low armor identified, use solid fire, dogs deploy left side." Without a thought the remaining soldiers reached up and pressed a button on their weapons, alternating the firing form, and began moving quickly on the right side of the firing line. Right after the troops were off the ship's ramp three dogs, of a large but proportional size, began a dead out sprint for the left line. While most K9 units were Uplifted, these were not, these dogs had been specially bred for their speed and strength, they were not sentient. After seeing his orders had been taken in full he drew his pistol, but as he began to turn towards better cover he only saw the butt of a rifle coming toward his face.<br>

Unknown Sector 185<br>
ISS Frigate Conrad<br>
<br>
"Sir! Enemy ship has appeared in danger close proximity! Three klicks out, battle leaders are requesting permission to open fire, orders sir?" One of the deck hands questioned with a panicked tone. The captain looked down at a 3D screen displaying a handful of different statistics, ship locations, and battle readiness around the ship. "Order the main driver to switch to laser fire, I want a three second blast four hundred feet below that ship, make it apparent that we spared their life. Contact our gun boats tell them I want all wings prepared for departure." Captain Hemlock commanded with out even looking up from the screen. Without hesitation the hand began looked back at his own command screen,"It will be done sir."<br>
<br>
The Conrad halted its advance and everything seemed quiet, as if time had stopped. At the head of the ship was a large, and seemingly deactivated, cannon. A few seconds after the ship halted in its advance the dormant cannon rotated into an aiming position towards the dangerously close ship. "Beginning charge!" Yelled out an ornery gunner. From the inside of the large cannon's barrel a purple glow emitted for an excruciatingly scary few seconds. "Fire!" The word hadn't even completely left the mouth of the sergeant before a deadly purple beam began streaming from the barrel. While the bolt of deadly purple light missed, it's deadly possibility was without a doubt, shown to the enemy.<br>

"They've landed on the ship, my lord." The Captain muttered as he paced back and forth, his blood pumping furiously. "Calm yourself, all you have to do is repeat after me. I am resting my godly power upon you.... get those fucking priests out now... don't want them to start chanting." The Overlord said this in a jokingly manner but the captain still took it very seriously. "All of you out now! The Overlord demands this chamber to be barren of your presence, out!" The captain began yelling with a pointed finger. <i>Atleast he's a patriotic one, maybe a new hero can be made of him. </i>Thought the Overlord as he sipped at an empty glass, when he realized that it was empty he only looked disappointed.<br>
<br>
"Captain, they are about to enter, stand in front of the Battle of Hemtide Statue." The Overlord ordered as he moved his microphone into position. Derron quickly walked in front of a large marble statue of the Overlord, flag in hand, it had been made after the Overlord "led" an army into battle. The captain watched with his burgundy eyes as the vermin entered the room. They were taller than he expected, a respectable height for their kind, and they obviously weren't foolish enough to come alone or unguarded. He found that they were a strange type of vermin, clean and healthy in size. When their apparent leader spoke he was completely unaware of anything they meant through their speech. After a long wait the Overlord spoke into the microphone and Derron repeated as best as he could. "We are the Servants of the Overlord. Unaware we are of your existences, under the hand of the godly Overlord we have come to this system to investigate the existence of space faring verm-.... peoples. My people were unaware of your existence, but the Overlord knew you were here, knew this was to be the place of meeting. The Overlord believes you are to be a valuable sla-... friend, so he granted you permissions to enter this holy place. In the presence of your mighty ships the Overlord holds back the thousands of war fleets, his mercy is spent on hoping you would return such.... friendliness." While the captain had no idea what these words meant he understood that they had to be godly in their creation. <br>

They hissed at the intruders, attempting to assert their dominance, they would attack if they needed to. They watched as the great bipedal creature ripped open the strange object, revealing those inside.<br>

After a short exchange of hisses they decided to close in, not to much, but enough to show they where serious about defending their home turf.

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>On-board the <i>Chalcedon<br>
</i></b>​</div>The firefight was brief but intense, and by the end more than a half dozen attackers lay dead, with a few more injured. Some attack dogs lay against the metal floor, smelling of charred hair and flesh from a shot to the chest with a laser rifle. <br>
<br>
Robert, the nurse, and the security officer he had spotted earlier were standing over the crumpled form of one of the unconscious boarders after Robert had struck him in the face with his combat rifle. <br>
<br>
"Well, it's not xenobiologicals." The nurse chimed in. "But for the life of me I couldn't make out the emblems on the uniform." <br>
<br>
Yeron awoke to a gloved hand snapping in his face. As he looked about the cargo bay he could see his attack had failed and some of his men were captured and being lined up against a wall by one of the armored security officer. To his left, he could say several medical personnel carrying men in black spacer coats off to the infirmary on stretchers. Meanwhile, a few armored security officers were poking around the landing vehicle they had come in as if trying to decipher the iconography. <br>
<br>
"Hey," said the voice belonging to the gloved hand in English, it was a woman's voice, "follow this light." <br>
<br>
Abruptly, a bright flashlight was stuck in Yeron's face and the shadow of a woman in medical fatigues appeared behind it. She waved the light back and forth before putting it away. <br>
<br>
"Well," she turned to the man in the spacer coat that had hit Yeron in the face and spoke in High Speak, "he should be fine. He might need a dentist though. I don't know how hard you hit him in the face." <br>
<br>
The armored security officer leaned in as if to pick him up, but was pushed away by the medic. <br>
<br>
"Give him some space, Holt. Jesu Cristo." <br>
<br>
"Fucker tried to shoot me." <br>
<br>
"I'm going to shoot you if you don't back up." <br>
<br>
The three figures stood and the nurse held out her hand to help Yeron into a standing position. <br>

Lady Radegonda<br>
Javian Prime </b><br>​</div>When the lazer shot missed the Crow's Draft Lady Radegonda Ordered a halt on all ship engines and guns. "Have the point defensive cannons looking out for any sneaky fighters! Have the main cannons aim at the enemy ships guns fire until they actually connect a shot. And tell those Legionaries to get off their asses and board those torpedos!" She was met with a rumble of footsteps all across the bridge with people rushing around and fingers typing furiously into various consoles and terminals, Radegonada herself was trying to keep calm. It was her first actual experience with any type of combat and she had no immediate backup, it was really a recruit captains worst nightmare, but if she could just stall them and let the main planetary fleet arrive to settle things she wouldn't have to loose crew or knights. "send them a transmission: Let them know they are in concordat controlled space and firing upon a patrol ship is an act of war. Any further acts of hostility will result in the destruction of their ship and we WILL find where they came from and retaliate with full force" The communications officer saluted and transfered her message to the unknown ship. "Ask the Curtorium ship if they are okay and what is their current situation, we'd have to Stall for the main fleet at best, at worst we'd have to fight them." May the Crow guide their way into a bloodless conflict.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Admiral Sunericus Radegonda<br>
Aquarii Defense fleet</b><br>​</div>When Admiral Sunericus got the call of a unidentified fleet showing up near the Crows Draft and one of the Curatorium's ships he was busy relaxing at one of the beach heads at the tourist planet of Shal'horen sister planet of Javian. Instead of a quick whisper into his hear a Belvanti Transport ship flew right infront of him with knights rushing out informing him of the situation. Naturally he was displeased at the suddenness of it all plus he was rather, not dressed for the occasion, robes and all. But as he was informed further and of what ship was in danger he quicky shut up and stopped complaining about it all. The only thing going through his mind was of Amalindis, he quickly got dressed and when the ship finally boarded his flag ship the Alluvial Faith, A Calihorn Class Battleship, he rushed into the brig barking orders. <br>
"What is the status of the fleet?!"<br>
"35% ready, the others are still coming from around the system sir,"<br>
"Tell them to hurry up, we dont want a war starting at our doorstep with our ships unprepared"<br>
"Sir Lady Radegonda reported that the unidentified fleet is small in size however unknown in capability, if we go now we cou-"<br>
"Don't underestimate our opponent Liliac, and dont underestimate... my daughter." <br>
The comms officer simply nodded at the old Admiral afriad to really suggest anything else<br>
<br>
With a heavy sigh Sunericus walked over to one of the holographs showing numbers, position of ships, and the status of the Crow's Draft. Hopefully Amalindis will get out unscathed, "hold on for me." <br>
Without missing a beat, right as he said that Lilac got up from her seat barking out information again. "Sir! enemy fleet cloaked! the larger ship didn't!" <br>
His eyes went from a weary concern to full on alert. "Status of the fleet!" <br>
"45%!"<br>
"Damnit, it'll have to do! Fleet into line formation! tell the rest of the fleet to converge on the Crows Draft!" <br>
Sunericus ran to his Admiral's seat and sat down. "FTL on my command!" <br>
<br>
Outside The Alluvial Faith Ships of varying classes, most of them, Clarent class frigates with a few cruisers and destroyers flew to their position, ready to meet this unknown enemy. The crews unsure of what to think about this situation they were all in, could this be the start of a war? or will this end in peace talks with a previously unmet faction in this already crowded galaxy they were in? Were there other aliens than the Axidat out there? Whatever it was, this could make Concordat history, or the others at the end of their cannons<br>

			<div itemprop="text">
				
					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 22px"><b>Magnificum Mare</b></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><br>
<b>Supreme Minister George Martin</b><br>
</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Supreme Minister sat directly at the centre of his office. It was yet another day of running through paper work regarding today’s federal issues. It was barely a significant transition from his military career, and everyday for five years he wondered why he even made the choice. But the Purview has made it’s choice, and it was his obligation to answer the call of duty. Though, he had hoped for more heroics.<br>
<br>
He kept a cigar secured between two fingers as he autonomously laboured through the relentless files of digital paper work. From occasion he would bring it to his mouth to enjoy such primitive luxuries. It managed to make the process far easier. It seemed as if he would actually finish his bundles of work tonight.<br>
<br>
Soon, a well-kept and highly decorated individual barged through the doors that concealed the Supreme Minister from his detail of personal guards. The man was Viktor Schulz; the newly-appointed Chief of Territorial Security.<br>
<br>
“Schulz, I recall there being a specialised process before entering a room?”<br>
<br>
“I do, but a tactical room breaching manoeuvre would have surely damaged the wall paper.” The man rebuked, ensuring a brief exchange of laughter between the two officials. The guest proceeded to bring up a chair to sit directly opposite to his superior, despite the lack of visual or audio authorisation to do so.<br>
<br>
“Any reason why you nearly broke the locks on my door? Those are vintage, y’know.”<br>
<br>
“I didn’t invite myself in for a simple exchange of pleasantries. We’d had reports regarding compromised infiltration of illegal munitions within our galactic territory.”<br>
<br>
“Odd...” The Supreme Minister scratched away at his beard in contemplation. “And what reason is there for importing illegal arms?”<br>
<br>
“We’re unsure as of now. The smugglers that were captured are quite uncooperative. They’ve refused to reveal where they’ve acquired these arms and aren’t willing to shed light on why they’re infiltrating their loads into our region of space.”<br>
<br>
“Very well. I believe that you will use what you are provided to obtain this information?”<br>
<br>
“Of course, sir.” Finishing the conversation, the uninvited intruder stood from his seat and left the office. The insertion of foreign illegal weapons worried the Supreme Minister. He could only wait to see what happened.<br>
</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 22px"><b>Yirath / Clides D3GP Surface</b></span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 18px"><b>Chief Master Sergeant Ethan Bailey</b></span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Bailey and his crew were completely taken by surprise as the top of their craft was peeled off, exposing them to a potential exchange of munitions fire. The assembly of flight personnel brought their weapons about in the direction of their potential attacker. The armour would be too thick to pierce with simple small arms fire. Bailey would have to negotiate the situation with reason and compromise.<br>
<br>
“Remain where you are, stranger. This is Purview property that you have damaged without good reason. I suggest you reframe from unreasonable actions, else willingly choose to face on the might of the Expeditionary Corps. Make your decision.”<br>
<br>
Bailey may have just signed his death warrant with those words. He was unsure of who these people were, and was thus unaware of their protocol regarding unidentified targets.<br>
<br>
“I suspect you shall make a decision that has been thought through properly.”<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Florida, Earth</b>​</div><br>
The hydraulic landing gear of the interatmospheric VTOL touched down on broken tarmac. From the extended stepladders, a small squad of researchers scurried down wearing hazmat suits and carrying bags with portable computers, notebooks, and diagnostic instruments. One of the researchers in a black suit with red trim seemed to be the leader and was holding a Geiger counter that was ticking wildly. <br>
<br>
"We're sucking down a lot of rads out here," he muttered, "we'd better get in and out quickly."<br>
<br>
They trudged over cracked concrete in the direction of a large set of buildings less than a mile away. The centuries-old ruins were creaking in the wind, and faraway lightning bolts flashed in the everpresent, greenish clouds. Radioactive ash and snow covered the ground in some places, and the reverberations of the approaching storm were ominous and filled the researchers with dread. <br>
<br>
They reached the first of the blasted out buildings and one of the researchers wiped away ash and soot on a nearby metal sign to read, "Cape Canaveral Spaceport" in bold letters. The interior of the building contained an assortment of junk, mostly broken research equipment and what seemed to be parts for an archaic space vehicle. Everywhere were bones and partial skeletons, usually still contained in lab coats or fatigues with the NASA logo on the shoulder. Without finding anything they moved on to the next building. <br>
<br>
"You know I've heard other researchers say there are people still living here, underground." One of the men said after a long silence. <br>
<br>
"Probably not. Even if there were before the war, they would've run out of food by now. Nothing can live on the surface."<br>
<br>
"Hey, at least we can't catch anything. Ionizing radiation is about the best sanitizer you can ask for."<br>
<br>
"Watch that Geiger counter or it'll sanitize you, you lummox."<br>
<br>
The leader researcher led them through a hall and into what appeared to be a security office. On the far side was a door marked "Traffic Command". Beside the door was a pile of bones with an almost-intact skeletal hand clutching an employee ID. The lead man picked up the card and tried the magnetic strip on the door which gave way with a hydraulic click. <br>
<br>
They emerged into a ruined control room. Most of the large computer monitors were smashed, as they appeared to be nothing more than flimsy glass or plasma-glass in the case of the smaller terminals. The lights still worked on the power of a backup fusion generator that was beginning to flicker out judging by the dimming and brightening of the lights. The Lorekeepers fanned out and checked the nearby desks for useful information. One of the researchers found a working terminal and sat down at it, bringing up an old user interface. <br>
<br>
"What is this, like Windows 10?" He muttered in frustration as he tried to parse the bootup sequence. When he finally got the computer online, he went trawling through the files on the computer. Most of what he found were old space flight logs from before the war. One C-27 cargo hauler from the ISS to Mars, one Russian Federation corvette from MIRR 34 to Moonbase Sigma. So on and so forth. He was about to give up on the terminal when he started stumbling over manifests. Then he noticed a column entitled "Interstellar Outbounds". Interesting, he had only heard of a few interstellar sublight vessels launched pre-war. <br>
<br>
He scrolled through the column and found three entries. One on the 2nd of July, 2112 noting that the <i>Gilgamesh </i>had taken on a cargo of 34 fire extinguishers, one noting that the same ship had taken on thirty tons of foodstuffs and mining equipment, which was strange, and one a few days later that said:<br>
<br>
<i>The Agamemnon is now taking on forty-five passengers for transport to System 32e-3. The fusion generators have been outfitted with additional capacity to account for the power demand of the cryogenic containment units. The extension units should allow these same passengers to survive the journey and begin their mission upon their arrival. Captain April Sawyer has been briefed on the risks and has agreed to be frozen with the crew. The Agamemnon is cleared for interstellar travel and should be departing from the ISS July 29th, 2112. We will lose viable radio contact on October 13th, when the craft leaves the Oort Cloud.<br>
</i><br>
"Hey guys, come look at--" the bullet had passed through the young researcher's brain before he could finish his sentence, splattering blood, brain matter, and plastic from his helmet all over the console. Hearing the shot, the other researchers turned to see one of their own standing over the dead body with a pistol aimed at them. They drew their emergency sidearms and began trading shots with their assailant. The cracks of gunshots and bullets impacting reverberated through the empty room, before finally a bullet struck the interloper who cried out in pain and emptied the last few rounds from the magazine of his gun to cover his retreat as he limped away. Most of the researchers gave chase while the leader went over to the terminal, wiping the blood away from the screen he read over the manifest log and his eyes went wide. Quickly, he put a datadrive in the side of the computer and extracted this log before following after his men and the sound of gunshots. <br>
<br>
Outside, on the tarmac, several mercs had arrived in a separate aircraft. They were dressed in black armor and masks that gave no clue as to their national origin, and their rifles sprayed bullets in the chasing Lorekeepers' direction. Ducking behind cover, the researchers were pinned down and helpless as the craft took off and into the lightning storm that was now right on top of them. They raced to their VTOL only to see the pilot's body laying on the pavement. Panicking, the men selected a young researcher who had some flight experience to get them out of the atmosphere to rendezvous with the waiting research vessel. The hunt was on.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Outer Procyon System<br>
</b>​</div>When they had boarded this ancient hulk, Philip Tolan, otherwise known as Captain Irons, had expected to find perhaps some minor loot and a bunch of skeletons. Instead what he found was the literal motherlode. Searching the ship's computer logs, his crew had ascertained that the vessel was well over six hundred years old and was filled to the gunwales with frozen people who had never seen anything outside of Earth. The cryopods themselves, probably worth a fortune either to a small time government conducting cryogenic research or to a collector of pre-war junk. But the passengers? Who knows. Could sell them, could try to press them into the crew, a few of the female passengers already seemed to be peaking his crews' interest. But the first thing was first, he had to tow the <i>Agamemnon </i>back into port. Then he could decide what to do with the passengers, get the cryo pods, and then break the rest of the vessel down for scrap. <br>
<br>
The pirate captain rested his hands on the railing of the bridge and looked out the window towards the dim light of the red dwarf star that was the epicenter of the Procyon system, then towards the far away twinkling of the main planet in the system, Procyonia, a den of murder and vice that he had called home all his life. The worn pirate had scars all over his face and a cybernetic left eye to prove that he was a scrapper, and his impressive, hand-crafted body armor was mainly for flair but also to signify that he could shoot or beat the shit out of any member of his crew. Turning towards his lieutenant, Olphas, he accosted the man for his tardiness as he slipped through the hydraulic pocket door. <br>
<br>
"Have the men attached the tethers?"<br>
<br>
"Yes, sir."<br>
<br>
"Good, tell them to give us half thrust so we keep this thing in one piece. We're hauling her into the chopyards."<br>

Kax Terata Airspace</b><br>
The secretary smiled, he felt he had survived the encounter with his terrifying neighbours. All he had to do was play merry until the discussion was completed. "I would price a deal like this close to a Trillion, I mean the resources you are asking for and the scale you want them, its not going to be cheap. Ofcourse, I suspect a project like this the payment arrangements will be spread over time, a fair way of ensuring that both of us hold up our ends for I am sure more assurances that we wont stiff you in anyway. I am sure none of those resources will prove to be problematic beyond the scale of them and the transportation. Depending on the scale and duration of the deal then we may want to look in strengthening the extending the transport infrastructure between our properties and your borders." He got a communication device out, "Mind if I update Pearlman of the current outlines of the deal?" he asked as he began to describe the vague sense of scale and investment of the project. "Now, I think we have managed to come to an amicable agreement. Let us leave this to our bosses to refine, unless there was something else?"<br>
<br>
<b>Ymir, Sedna, Sol<br>
Sedna Trade Security Force HQ</b><br>
"We are being told that this is going to be a grand Undertaking. It seems Millions, if not Billions of tons of resources, some rare. I vote now is the time to seize the location. By the time any of the Other Governments realise what we are up to the plan will have been made official and no one is going to stop the System that is supplying the Femians, to do so would either result in destruction or a deal where they provide what we are offering but cheaper, if not free, and that will cripple their economies." These were the words of Peter Deitrich, Chief of Trade Security, to the other Branch Chiefs.The response was a lot of talking and some of the Regional Chiefs that were in the area even made their voices heard. Eventually they were agreed. The majority of the Houses had already given the Sedna Trade Security Force the OK to enact the Plan but gave them the final say on when and how to achieve the goal. They agreed it was time. It would give them more access to trade Downstream of the Cent Route, give them a foothold and begin the enacting of a much larger plan.<br>
<br>
<i>Later<br>
</i><br>
<b>Ymir, Sedna, Sol<br>
STSF HQ, Cheif of 'Private' Security's Office</b><br>
"I see so there is definately Cryo'd Terrans from before the war at that location? I appreciate you coming to me first. I will need to discuss this with various people, of course. Please ensure you inform your employers but make sure you fix those com issues you just started having first." Came the words of the Chief of Private Security, Marxian Lunic. Marxian was the third son of the current leading house in the 'New Blood' camp of Politics and, like all people who were in positions of power in the STSF, had been given his position, not earned it. Despite that he has worked hard to prove his worth. The Response from the mercenary on the other side was a short chuckle followed by "We must ensure we can repair this new issue so that I can report to my employer" There was a sharp moment of static and then silence as the merc turned of his communication. Both men knew that what had just been agreed was to ensure the Femians were told everything but to delay it just a moment so that the STSF could muster their own people to get a slice of this very valuable pie. Marxian knew that this could strain Femian-Sednian relations but intended for everyone to win out. The Sednians would get one or two, perhaps use them as museum pieces or digitising their experiences to then sell on while the Femians would get the majority to use as they wished. Everyone would win out as far as Lunic was concerned and he felt the Femians would no doubt appreciate the added firepower in the possible conflict considering how he was informed the operation went down. <br>

<b>Luyten IV, Luyten.<br>
Bridge of the TSC Ingstrom</b><br>
"Get those supplies off quickly, the sooner we set up a base of operations the better our leverage politically." Said Security Chief Haines, "We need to rush to set up the mines on this planet and on Luyten II. We want to get a scoop over to Luyten VI and begin mining the belt around Luyten VI and place a simple station over this planet and have one sitting in the system Belt between IV and V. The houses and the STSF are investing a lot into this plan. The larger scale our set up and the more crap we can place in the system the better." That was his address to his crew. He knew what was at stake. The Fact was the Sednian Holdings in and Around Sol were going to run out sooner then ideal and so they needed a new region of influence to strip of resources. That was to be Luyten. Too much Trade passed through Lelande to ensure any meaningful 'entrenchment' but Luyten was merely a station. Ships Jumped through it without a thought. With Tensions between the Institute and the Heirarchy being as they were very few chose to spend too long travelling the road between the two super powers. If they could secure it then they could secure the Femians access to the materials they wanted and influence over the stellar region. They would finally have a place, all be it a small one, on the Galactic Stage as a nation.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Bridge of the HMS <i>Charles Darwin<br>
</i></b>​</div>The Curatorium research vessel had been in orbit over Earth for about twelve Terran days, and had been sending research teams throughout North America to scavenge what were deemed "promising ruins" from the ground. The vessel was a frigate painted grey and black white white and gold-colored trim. On the sidewall was painted the emblem of the Lorekeepers Guild, an opened book with two crossed keys.<br>
<br>
Captain Edward Fischer stood on the bridge, his long leather spacer coat nearly trailing the ground over his black and gold military fatigues. He was part of the <i>Librorum</i>, the Librarians. They were considered the paramilitary arm of the Guild; men and women who devoted their lives to becoming Renaissance people, skilled in art, literature, science, and some mode of combat.<br>
<br>
Fischer looked out from his vantage point to the planet below, watching as another acidic storm of ionized particles danced across the southern half of North America. He had seen pictures of what the world had looked like before the war, blue oceans with powdery white clouds and green land. Now, it was a dull, dirt-colored sphere shrouded in a greenish haze of ionic dust.<br>
<br>
"Captain," chimed one of his subordinates, saluting, "the Florida team reports hostile contact."<br>
<br>
"What?" Fischer asked incredulously, his bow-shaped mouth drawing back in a scowl. "Hostile contact with what?"<br>
<br>
"A spy, sir. An infiltrator was among the party. They suffered two casualties and the interloper was able to steal a piece of highly sensitive intelligence."<br>
<br>
"What intelligence?"<br>
<br>
"The team has discovered the existence of a pre-war sleeper ship, the <i>Agamemnon </i>that departed in 2112 for Procyon. Our records don't indicate the ship has ever been discovered, and the manifest has listed forty-five crew members in cryostasis."<br>
<br>
Fischer looked stunned and amazed. A treasure trove of information could be locked within the brains of those passengers. The Lorekeepers would reward him handsomely, and furthermore he will have secured the testimony of real-life pre-war humans!<br>
<br>
"Of the spy, do we know their origins?"<br>
<br>
"No, but there are theories. Institute is a likely culprit, although this is more brazen than them, generally. There are also the Femians, the Purview, the Tempus,"<br>
<br>
"I suppose it doesn't rightly matter. Whoever it is, we have to beat them to the <i>Agamemnon</i>. There is no telling what will befall of the ship of crew if we were not to secure it."<br>
<br>
"Aye, I have radioed ahead to Philemon on the encrypted channels. They have given us the greenlight for this operation, and the corvette <i>Jekyll </i>and frigate <i>Michael Faraday </i>are set to rendezvous with us in Procyon. I have also been told that the High Curator is especially intrigued by this operation and has specifically requested we take the utmost care with the passengers."<br>
<br>
"Excellent. Let's collect our researchers and then move out. Tell engineering to prepare the craft for warp."<br>
<br>
"Aye aye, sir."<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Aboard the <i>Agamemnon <br>
</i></b>​</div>Pirates in leather coats toting laser rifles was not a scene that any of the designers of the ship would have imagined playing out aboard the <i>Agamemnon. </i>As the craft docked at the Procyon Chopyards, it was boarded by another crew. This one, a group of severe-faced scavengers. One of them, in a Curatorium-made suit, the others in leather coats and combat boots. The man in the suit casually lit a cigarette and let the smoke drift into the metal rafters above his head.<br>
<br>
Coming to meet them, Captain Irons stood with Ophas beside him. The balding old lieutenant was visibly sweating, but the Captain just seemed annoyed. On either side of them were rows of cryogenic freezing banks, each one containing a six hundred year old person in an orange NASA jumpsuit. They had been checked over twice, all forty-five seemed to have made the journey which was unusual for a primitive sleeper ship.<br>
<br>
"Alright, Irons, I'm thinking maybe... 10,000 credits?" Said the man in the suit.<br>
<br>
"10,000 credits!" The pirate barked incredulous. "I wipe my ass with 10,000 credits. The salvage alone is 40,000, plus the popsicles. We're talking somewhere in the neighborhood of six or seven million credits." <br>
<br>
The salvage man just laughed. "Apparently you haven't gotten wise, Irons. Sinjen Drive Yards is out of business. They had a uh, unfortunate incident with an old freighter colliding directly into Old Man Sinjen's office." <br>
<br>
"Never liked that old Chinaman anyway, Rickets, what's your point?" <br>
<br>
The suited man threw down his cigarette and stomped it out. "Nobody calls me fucking Rickets, Irons. Not even your punk ass. The name is Richard Evars. And what it means, smartass, is that there's only these Chopyards and the Golgotha Driveyards, and me and you both know that Golgotha hasn't got the credits for this hulk, and if they did we would be robbing them. The offer is 10,000, take it or leave it." <br>
<br>
"You know, Rickets, I've got half a mind to shove my foot so far up your-" <br>
<br>
"Captain," Olphas broke in, "I might suggest the Calticras Shipyards in Leonia. It's a trip, I don't know if the ship will make it but we could always try." <br>
<br>
"Take a tethered ship through the gate? Fucking suicide. Go ahead and try." Rickets said, grinning with dirty stained teeth. Yet there was something off about his composure. He knew that Irons knew that he was about to outmaneuver him. <br>
<br>
"I could always sell to the Hierarchy, or the Institute." Irons said coolly. <br>
<br>
"The fucking lesbians and the goat fuckers? They'd be more likely to ice you than pay you." <br>
<br>
"Maybe. Maybe not." <br>
<br>
Silence. <br>
<br>
"Okay, how about two million credits?" <br>
<br>
Irons smiled. "Now we're getting somewhere, Dick. Olphas, grab that Indi Chardonay. We'll drink that while we discuss business." <br>
<br>
The salvager was basically fuming. "I will get you one day, Irons. I'll fuck you over so bad---" <br>
<br>
"Hey hey, now." Irons butted in, "I'm flattered, honestly, but my mother didn't raise a queer." <br>
<br>
"She never raised you at all," Olphas whispered laughingly as they all walked back to the bridge to haggle over the price. <br>
<br>
"Quite right, Olphas. Quite right."</div>

<b><u>Location: Near B7R</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"Woah... That is one big ship..." Hammer whistled as the unknown fleet and its large flagship came into view. Lancet carefully steered his fighter about to get a clear view with his targeting scope. The 4 interceptors were clearly outnumbered and outgunned in this situation. To make things worse, the enemy fleet seemed to be steering towards their own fleet. <br>
<br>
"Command this is Warlock 1. We have visual on unknown fleet. And its a big one." Lancet reported as his squadron entered a holding pattern formation. Just skirting out of range of the unknown fleet. As he awaited orders, he kept his eye on the escorting planes and wondered about their capabilities. Will he be able to shoot them down? Are they easy pray or will they actually be a challenge? Even so, are they honorable pilots who value a good fight or bloodthirsty vultures who shoot down anyone without a care? Little things that just fall behind the scenes in the chaos of war. <br>
<br>
"Warlock 1, this is Command. Maintain a holding position and attempt to hail the flagship. Tell them-" The Captain's orders perplexed Lancet and made him chuckle softly. So that's why they were here? An Investigative Force. That term had a nice ring to it. Still, he wonders what sort of Investigative Force that carries nukes have any use here.<br>
<br>
"Copy that, Command. Executing the mission now. Over and out. Warlocks form up on me. We're about to do something crazy." Hammer whistled with joy as the planes entered contact formation. "Isn't crazy what we do best?" <br>
<br>
"Watch that mouth, Hammer. Heh, we might not survive this. Opening communications link with unknown fleet. Here goes.... *Ehem* Attention Unknown Fleet. I am Squadron Leader Davenport of the Atlus RSF's 7th Fleet. We have orders to investigate an unknown energy spike detected within your region and seek your cooperation in our investigation."<br>

Lydia parroted the Sergeant's words as the mech mimicked the confused head tilt she was doing. Still, Lydia was rather impressed by their steadfast attitude. Even if they are surrounded and have a 10 meter tall mech staring down at them.<br>
<br>
"I... Apologize for my rash actions, Sir. I was given orders to check on the status of this craft and its occupants. Had I known you were still able to move I wouldn't have damaged your craft. ...... Or what's left of it." Lydia did a quick check on her biosensor and confirmed that they were still surrounded by the rather angry looking natives. That and they were coming closer.<br>
<br>
"I have thought about the situation and now offer you a choice. Quietly come with me back to the Edelweiss for questioning or.... I simply leave you to the wrath of the natives. I'm sure your weapons are effective but I doubt you have enough ammunition to handle all of them. I'll give you a minute to think before I leave you to them." <br>

<b><u>Location: ???</u></b></span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">"What have I gotten myself into now?" Hans hummed as he checked his situation. He was hoisted up by his leg, a good 2 meters above the ground. Simply put, he was ensnared by a rather active carnivorous plant of a sort. While the Doctor in him wants nothing more than to take a sample, the soldier in him is yelling for the thing's demise. Sadly, the soldier won and he quickly prepped his sole thermite grenade. The top of the cylinder began to spark as he dropped it into the plant's 'mouth'.<br>
<br>
"Such a waste..." Hans grumbled as the thing began to thrash as the thermite ignited and burnt through its digestive sac. In its death throes, the plant threw him a good half meter away into the mud. Groaning slightly, he pushed himself up and watched as the plant became still. A good minute or so passed before he approached the remains, cut off a sample and sealed it in a specimen tube. <br>
<br>
"Now... To find the ship.... Maybe that way?" Hans mused as he heard a distant explosion. Shouldering his rifle, he sighed before trudging his way through the mud. </span></span></div>

Unidentified Vessel, 28th Fleet Blockade<br>
</b><br>
Back on the Varnarmaður, the Captain and the bridge crew were busy listening in on the conversation between their marines and the captain of the unknown intruding vessel. Everything that was happening obviously being recorded both visually and audibly through the helmets of the marines themselves, and as the captain of the unknown vessel spoke in response to the Femian question. The Naval Intelligence officers aboard the Varnarmaður who operated seperately from the main branch of the Navy had immediately gotten down to work trying to discover just who it was that they were talking to, going through their records in the data banks positioned on either side of the bridge's observation deck, black and white uniforms distinguishing them from their enlisted counterparts the FNI agents soon discovered that their records held no collection of the word 'Overlord' as any kind of title for a leader or faction that occupied Civilized Space. Usually the first assumption would be non-Human lifeforms but it had already been established that the men aboard these ships were very much human. So the second assumption had to be made that these humans were not from charted Civilized Space as every other known faction was, but that they must have been from some unknown region that was yet to be discovered by any major Human nation or third party organization. Which would certainly prove to be an interesting development, especially as these men claimed to not know anything about the Hierarchy either. <br>
<br>
Fayte scoffed to herself at the other captain's remarks on the supposed 'thousands of war fleets' though she wasn't sure whether or not that was true she had an inclination to believe that the man's claims were false given the obviously delusional fervour that the people of this faction held for this so called 'Overlord' it gave off a strong indication that the populace was brainwashed and so it had to be assumed that any claims of military strength were either exaggerated or outright lies which the 'Servants' of this 'Overlord' character had been forced into believing. Captain Fayte of the Varnarmaður speaking into her own microphone to the black robed figure leading the Femian marines on-board the unknown vessel. "Call his bluff. And ask what exactly it is that they wish to become of this interaction." The leader of the marines recieving the order and expressing it swiftly. "We would be interested in seeing these thousands of war fleets, military strength is something which our people take great pleasure in witnessing. My superior asks what it is that you wish to become of our interaction. What does your 'Overlord' want."<br>

"Excellent." Was the Sub-Director's first response, an approving nod following afterwards. "Feel free to update your superior, as I shall do the same with mine. I believe all will be arranged shortly as our department is under rather intense pressure to have this deal fulfilled within the coming days, the Board of Naval Superiors is most insistent on this project being completed as soon as physically possible so I suppose we should best get to it." Both subordinates in their respective fields would then proceed to inform their superiors of everything that had been rather informally agreed on and spoken about but that both sides had expressed their eagerness to get along with the deal. In the coming days several meetings would take place between Femian and Sednian representatives from various parties involved, on the Femian side it primarily being the Commerce and Naval Corps alongside the Corps of Engineers and various business and government leaders on the Sednian side. Bethan and Sedna would prove to be the two dominant locations of these meetings.<br>

Karvan, a barely habited forest planet known primarily for its never-ending rain and storms that cover most if not all of the planet at any given time. Populated mostly by aquafarmers, hydrologists and loggers the planet really wasn't anyone's first choice of place to live unless they were either born there or had moved there for work opportunities which there were surprisingly a lot of given how miserable the planet's weather was. However like most scarcely populated outer colonies in Femian space, Karvan was a very suitable planet for both government and corporate interests that were not meant to be seen by the wider public, one prime example being Elysium Genetics' research and development installation, numbered 72. It wasn't their only facility on the planet but it was certainly their largest and most productive, being home to many of the genetic advances which further improved the Femian genome for future generations, of course it was top secret due to its importance, hidden well away as it was built into a mountain range surrounded by some of Karvan's thickest forests. One could only go there if they were invited and given directions needless to say, which the Terror Corps had been, a large jet-black shuttle descending down onto a landing platform that stuck out of the rocky formations of the mountains, it hit the artificial flat ground with a loud thump as the ramp at the front of the shuttle descended downwards just like the ship it belonged to had. A group of specialized looking troopers who's armor shared a similar tone of black to that of their shuttle marching out in formation before taking up positions of security around the ship. <br>
<br>
From there a familiar looking figure would approach from down the ramp, that figure being Grand Admiral Aria, having been dispatched by her peers on the Board of Naval Superiors as she was seen as the right person for the job of supervising this matter of utmost state importance, behind the prestigiously dressed woman followed another one however, with a fully black uniform and cape, having to basically hold her cap on however due to the strong winds of Karvan. This was Grand Marshal Vexia, a member of the Board of Naval Superiors' equivelant in the Femian Terror Corps, the Board of Speciality Superiors given the specialized nature and role of the branch of military that they were in-charge of. She too having been dispatched by her peers of equal rank in her own branch due to her particular skillset and competance. She was smaller than Aria in stature but equally as imposing if not more due to the reputation of her branch and its considerable lack of ethics. The two high-ranking figures stepped off of their shuttle ramp and were almost immediately greeted with the salute of a hundred of more Army troopers who had been positioned at the entrance of the facility as a formal welcoming party, Elysium Genetics due to its importance to the Hierarchy was usually given a military security detail for its many facilities across Femian space. And from the rows of troopers holding their salute a similarly familiar figure would appear. Director Alfaderis, wearing a much more appropriate raincoat over her usual pure white lab one due to conditions as she smiled and nodded towards her military visitors. <br>
<br>
"Grand Admiral. Grand Marshal." She greeted, coat blowing in the wind as the three stood across from one another. "I wasn't expecting the Naval and Terror Corps to take an interest in our work, isn't that usually the Ground Corps' area of responsibility?" She said with an air of confusion though all three women knew why they were all standing here, and so the Grand Admiral was the first to take the initative. "Yes, Director it usually is however you know why me and my friend are here and why it is our two branches and not the Ground Corps handling this... Situation." There was an emphasis on that last word which made the Director freeze momentarily before regaining her ground. "Of course, Grand Admiral. Its just that I'm a little perplexed as to why you're approaching me, I mean--didn't my suggestion work?" She asked, the Grand Marshal now speaking up quickly in response. "It did, the data was retrieved and has been delivered to our personnel on Bethan. However not only did your agent of choice alert House Skyre to the presence of a foreign state taking an interest in ancient NASA operations, losing the element of surprise for us but he also went to his own countrymen before he went to us. Did you really think we would trust a Sednian fully with a task as important as that, and with data as vital to our people as the data he retrieved? Needless to say our companions on the BNS and BSS are very displeased with you, Director." Alfaderis was stuck for words, opening her mouth before swiftly closing it again, only being able to reply with. "My most sincere apologies." She bowed a slight amount. "Whatever I can do to repay you for my mistake I will do, but I did have faith in his abilities to do it both discreetly and with loyalty to us." <br>
<br>
"We're well aware of your naive trust in baselines, Director. But you must remember that they are not like your sisters in the Hierarchy." Alfaderis nodded with a quiet sigh. "Now, our peers expect us to track down the location of the Agamemnon and its passengers. We already know the system but that's about it. We will be able to handle this task, however what we need from you is for you to join the hunt for these Terrans with a team of your best personnel, we have very little time in this endeavor so we expect you to come with us today." Alfaderis nodded, quickly turning around to return back to her facility without another word. Efficient.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b> Procyonia<br>
</b>​</div>The "capital" of the corporate bordello state governed by pirates and robber barons known colloquially as Procyonia Libertalis was a bustling metro of fifteen million people. While the planet itself was an Earthlike world with a slightly higher proportion of ocean, the city itself sat far inland. Hovercars lined the streets and the wealthy inhabitants lined the streets amidst shops selling illicit goods or gaudily-lit whorehouses. <br>
<br>
Far above them, a wide space elevator led up to the Procyon Chopyards, the largest salvage operation in civilized space. A large field of space was bounded off and collected by gravity tethers and the long, thin access tubing of the Chopyards itself, which was a large space station organized around a central, massive scrap compactor and an adjacent fission furnace that melted the scrap down into metal to be separated and recast into new parts. Within the Chopyards rested about a hundred abandoned hulks of ships large and small. And within that cloud of debris, the old, dilapidated <i>Agamemnon</i>.  <br>
<br>
Then, like the flickering of a light, four ships came into view. Three of them, black with the Lorekeeper's livery. One of them, bearing the livery of the Militarium Solaris. <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Aboard the <i>Agamemnon<br>
</i></b>​</div>"So, three million and we keep five of the passengers. You have a deal." Captain Irons said, standing and shaking hands with the salvage merchant. The merchant blew a puff of smoke from his cigarette and grinned. "You drive a hard bargain, Irons. C'mon. Let's go draw up the paperwork." <br>
<br>
Suddenly, a metallic chirp sounded in the bridge. The merchant stuck his hand down in his jacket pocket and found a small metal device that he put to his ear. <br>
<br>
"What? He wants to speak with me? Stall him." <br>
<br>
He closed the communicator and stuck it back in his pockets. "Apparently there's a Captain Fischer of the Curatorium here to talk to me." <br>
<br>
Irons raised a brow. "What are they doing here?" <br>
<br>
"Something tells me," the merchant paused as he turned to the door, "it's something concerning this rustbucket." <br>
<br>
"You're selling to me, Rickets. We had a deal." <br>
<br>
"I don't see any paperwork, Irons. And it is parked in <i>my </i>Chopyards." <br>
<br>
"Fuckin' snake," the pirate snarled as he stepped towards the merchant, only to have the scavengers pull their guns from their holsters. <br>
<br>
"Back off, Irons, if you know what's good for you." <br>
<br>
The pirate captain glanced at his first mate, who sat gobsmacked with his wine goblet still held in his dumpy fingers. He went for his gun. <br>
<br>
The bridge erupted in gunfire, triggering the pirates and scavengers inside the vessel to glance towards the door to the bridge, then at each other, and then fell to fighting one another. The whole ship was filled with fighting men shooting at one another or going hand-to-hand in some instances. <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Chopyards Offices<br>
</b>​</div>"He'll be back soon." Said the secretary obstinately. <br>
<br>
"When is soon?" <br>
<br>
"Soon." <br>
<br>
Captain Fischer crossed his arm in frustration. He, alongside a small squad of soldiers in combat armor were waiting for the junk merchant, to intimidate him into handing over the <i>Agamemnon</i>, which they had seen clearly resting in the confines of the salvage yards. Instead, they got a surly secretary. <br>
<br>
Before long however, a muffled sound came up from the floor. It sounded like... Gunfire. <br>
<br>
Fischer turned back to the secretary and brandished a pistol. "Ma'am, I don't want to shoot you but I need your security codes." <br>
<br>
"Take them," she said, tossing a small laminated card across the desk, "they don't pay me enough." <br>
<br>
Fischer snatched the card and he and his men crashed through the security door, running towards the scaffolding that led out to the <i>Agamemnon</i>. <br>

He paid attention to the words this potential adversary carefully chose to deliver. The offer of sanctuary was quite suspicious given how these people were firing a cascade of bullets at him only moments ago. “Despite my attempts to reframe from being rude, I must decline your offer.” By now, most of the crew was taking up a defensive position with their weapons aimed towards the surrounding natives. “I find little sense in accepting an offer from strangers who almost cost the lives of me and my men.” </span></span><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">The airman took a moment to think whether he had made the right decision to decline.

<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">“Chief, flares.” A member of the crew delivered a device shaped as a pistol, though it had no intention to act like one.

Bailey aimed the device towards the sky, squeezing had on the trigger before it deployed a trail of red travelling upwards with no thought of ever coming down again. “Soon, our men will arrive. I suggest you flee before they do.”<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b>ARK-83-A</b><br>
The laboratory on the planet's surface was silent and hidden, camouflaged into the surrounding marsh. Inside, it was cool but not cold, with microscopic robots working on a DNA strand from some creature. The head scientist looked it over. "It's an intelligent fucker, so uplifting should be done within the month. After that, we just send the template to the orbital bio-manufactory and we'll get a population going. These ones will make excellent soldiers, large and fast and vicious but we can make them quite obedient, Councillor Ajax." The man on the other side of the holocom nodded briefly. "Excellent. The Hierarchy grows hungrier every day. I'd call them wolves, but I've met wolves. Lovely people, these days. But Femians... there's an aggressiveness in them. Their leaders have been inserting it, breeding it in, using the knowledge they stole from us for dark purposes. The Femian people are sick. It is up to us to cure them, or remove the infection upon our world. Ajax out."<br>
<br>
The head scientist, a lioness, looked back at the scan of the DNA of the creature they were working on. So complex, so beautiful. The creature itself was the size of an elephant, with vicious teeth and four eyes. With some graspers and intelligence added, it would become a reckoning on the battlefield. <br>
<br>
<b>Casos, Outer Colonies, Femian Space</b><br>
The spy approached the mountain fortress. She was so conflicted she felt her body would literally rip apart, but as she looked at her companion she knew what had to be done. She had to betray her nation to save her people. She was brought down into the complex. Eventually, she was brought to somebody, a woman with blonde hair and green eyes. "So. I was told you have information that we need to hear." The spy nodded. "Well then? Spit it out, I don't have all day." The spy opened her mouth, but the instant she started to speak her heart felt like it exploded with pain. Her entire body started to feel inflamed and she started to choke and froth at the mouth. She collapsed to the ground, unable to speak or make any noise. Shaking on the ground, she eventually lost consciousness, and died very shortly after. <br>
<br>
Several star systems away, Councillor Ajax noticed a blip on his visor and activated it. "TERMINATION NOTICE: A7FMSI. CODE: 9849304352942." Ajaz had memorized the codes and knew what that meant. A traitor. Fortunately, agents no longer relied on their own weak minds to prevent themselves from giving up valuable data; now, so-called "death packets" were built right in and automatically deployed whenever a betrayal was detected. How unfortunate for her. "May her next life be kind," whispered the general.<br>

<b>Meeting with Sedna</b><br>
"Oh, we are well aware of your business with the Hierarchy. What we are saying is that we can be an even greater customer." She pulled out a small holodoc. "This is what we'd like to buy from you. That's more mercenaries than many colonies have populations. That's enough weaponry bought to fund a small empire. We have a rather great budget, and a not quite as great military. The Femians, while surely good buyers, wouldn't ever purchase amounts like this from any outsider.<br>

</b>​</div>Lady Geleswintha put a hand up to her helmet, "Gwalter, how long until the fleet arrives?" All they had to do was stall long enough for the nearby fleet to arrive, then hopefully all of this will be settled fairly and peacefully. Although she has a sneaking suspicion the old count will have to vacate the planet, after all a high standing count out in the middle of nowhere wasn't exactly the safest thing. "They should be arriving in orbit in a twelve or so hours." Geleswintha gave an affirmative before resuming a defensive stance with the natives, perhaps she could attempt to reason with them?<br>
"Patch me to Ermelandus" Gwalter responded with an Affirmative and soon enough Ermelandus's voice came through.<br>
"Count Ermelandus, this is Geleswintha i need you to give be a brief rundown of gestures the natives might know"<br>
"i'll look into that right away" Ermelandus from back at the research base pulled up his files from various stealth drones labeled 'communication' which showed various gestures the lizardfolk natives used and his interpretations of what they might mean.<br>
"It looks like if you throw your weapon or maybe its supposed to be a ceremonial spear on the ground which apparently means you want to communicate and talk with them?"<br>
"uh... Affirmative my liege"<br>
<br>
She was taken aback by what she had to do, throwing her weapon on the ground would leave her somewhat vulnerable and plus she didn't want to clean the rifle afterwards. "Johannes, give me a stick" one of the knights slowly looked at Geleswintha his face utterly confused face hidden behind his helmet but it was very obvious as to what he was thinking. "Just, do it" He looked over to a tree branch and tore one out and handed it to his commander. Geleswintha looked at it then looked up toward the natives, looking around for a ornately dressed one that stood out in the crowd which would normally signify the chieftain of the group she raised the branch and threw it somewhat near the lizardmans foot about a meter away from him. "Knights lower your weapons." as she said it she did it as well. Hopefully she did what was accordingly lizardfolk culture of "i don't want to fight" It was quite odd to her honestly but with stone aged primitives one cant really predict much.<br>

The knights saw a vast jungle expanse with a few clearings and destroyed trees no doubt from bombardments and warfare. Landing at what was assumed to be some sort of temporary base the commander was met with a man in uniform followed by a few soldiers, "your jungle, seems, lively." he cautiously joked, when the what was assumed some sort of leadership of these people finished talking about their situation all Sir Gaiseric could simply reply with was. "What is your plan to take the city then?" After all he couldnt devise some sort of plan without knowing what his "allies" were going to do.<br>

ISS Dreadnought Crypt | Honor Room<br>
<br>
The Overlord had been listening tentatively while the vermin spoke, its silver tongue was powerful. No doubt that they were a very intelligent strain of vermin, possibility for breeding was noted. When it asked to see the thousands of war fleets the Overlord laughed very hard. His people had been working around the clock ever since his speech but there were not thousands of fleets, an obvious lie from a mortal. As the Overlord scratched his beard he smiled and began typing at his console until a handful of displays came up,"Guess this movie won't be coming out anytime soon. Console, tell the director of propaganda to schedule this movie to come out in few more decades." Billions of chips had been poured into the production of the <u>Burning Candle: The Final War for Our People</u>. A film based around an inter dimensional empire on the verge of destroying the universe.<br>
<br>
The captain heard in his ear the dark tone of the Overlord's words. His formidable look changed instantly, from a stout captain to a terrified man with his base instincts telling him to run and hide. "I understand my lord," the captain whispered as he pressed a button on his wrist console, deploying a holographic screen in front of him. After walking around to the side of the screen he pressed another button that brought up a playing video. "The Overlord will answer you," the captain mumbled as he peered at the screen with a bowed head. Appearing on the screen first was a charred, cracked, and molten planet surrounded by a ring of wreckage made up of ships and the bodies of aliens.<br>
<br>
The image stayed on the screen for a few seconds until it changed to another picture of a charred, cracked, and now molten planet with a similar surrounding ring, this one obviously of children and women instead of ship crews mostly made up of male aliens. The screen changed instantly to another picture of a cracked planet, then to another, and another, the cycle growing faster as the number of destroyed planets grew. The cycle stopped when a planet, undamaged, appeared on the screen. A lush and green planet with blue seas, the planet grew dark as unseen shapes enveloped it. After a second of darkness a bright shine emitted from where the planet once had been, then it was clear that the lively planet had been destroyed in almost an instant. The planet blazed as the core cracked, then a ship of a very alien design, organic in its creation, appeared and destroyed what had been watching it. <br>
<br>
With out pause another lush planet appeared and once more its destruction was brought by the unknown menace. One after another, more beautiful planets were destroyed and alien ships destroyed anything that had been watching the act of genocide. Then an image appeared from the perspective of an alien ship, in front of it was a huge wall of vessels of the same alien design as before. The murderers closed in quickly before the camera changed view to that of a person on the planet that the ship was apparently leaving for dead. Screams could be heard as everyone scrambled into hiding except the person that was watching the soon to begin slaughter, and a few gawking bystanders, the camera changed view once more to the inside of a bunker. In the bunker were thousands of strange but obviously sentient aliens, their language undecipherable, their looks unfamiliar, and their emotions obviously real.<br>
<br>
The camera view changed quickly back to the person videoing the skies. Without any warning the hand full of ships that had been leaving the world disappeared, and in their place was the quickly closing in wall of death. As the alien videoing the scene began running desperately trying to get into the bunker he was stopped by a smaller alien who was pointing straight up at the sky. Turning the camera back towards the sky the screen showed what seemed to be a similar ship to that of the Crypt. Within seconds the screen turned black as more ships of the same design began appearing, blotting out the sky in their volume.<br>
<br>
Changing camera views for the last time to the view of the flag ship, the camera panned left to right showing the hundreds of thousands of ships if not millions surrounding the planet like a shield. "Vah lu, machen teh!" A deep voice yelled, obviously a command to the greatest armada ever seen. Only half of a second spanned between the command and the millions of beams firing toward the wall of genocidal bent ships. After a few seconds of the enemies' vessels being turned to rubble and torn apart came the counter attack, absolute hell fire. A battle raged as thousands of ships on both sides were tuned to dust or blown in half by the pure power of each sides' attack. The battle seemed to drag on for hours until more and more ships resembling the design of the Crypt began appearing all around the enemy fleet, seemingly out of nothing. When the firing stopped on both sides a very small fraction of  the original enemy fleet remained. It was probable that the attacking ships wanted to surrender but before any direct communications could be made, one last ship appeared from nothing above the surviving enemies. Its size easily a hundred times larger than any other ship that had been present, with a single huge beam of green light the huge ship vaporized the last of the fleet.<br>
<br>
"The Overlord wants to protect our galaxy from the likes of those you just saw, they were eradicated by the greatest ship ever made, the Hand of God, for the crimes of mass genocide," the captain declared after the screen disappeared. "Defeating great enemies in the outreaches of our galaxy and even in Andromeda had been his goal, now he wishes to unite us all under a single ruler. That ruler is peace, he has watched the squabbling of a thousand races, and he wishes to see us all serving peace. He knows that many people will refuse him as their one true god, so he has and will never push that agenda. Almighty he is, and all loving, he is the servant of peace. Both he and my people hope to have your great power at his side if another great enemy comes," the captain had been speaking loudly, yet it slowly drifted into a mutter as he turned his eyes to the statue of the Overlord with the flag in hand, tears rolling down his cheeks. He had no idea what the words he spoke meant but the Overlord was great and the Overlord was speaking through him, the greatest privilege that any creature could have. <br>

ISS Frigate Conrad<br>
<br>
"Sir, the ship has just sent us a message in Traitor's Tongue, our translation should be coming to your console now," a young woman said while busily typing at a console. The captain looked at his console and scoffed. "An act of war? What do you call warping into such close proximity, a trade deal? Threatening us in such a way is only reason to call upon the full force of the empire... but the Overlord trusts in us to deal with this situation on our own..... send them this message in text format," the captain ended while he began typing furiously at his console. After finishing the message he pulled up the ship's energy dispersion screen, a few seconds after looking it over he began another command,"I want fifty percent of the power diverted to the forward shields. Auxillary engines are to be halted and their power diverted to the front most guns, I want reactors two and three up to maximized proficiency," the captain paused as he pulled up another screen and grinned. "Tell our gunboats to divert ALL power to their shields and prepare for uncloaking, if the enemy won't attack us unreasonably we have no reason to hide our ships. Also.... tell them to start their auxiliary reactors and funnel ninety percent of that power to their shields and the last ten percent to their largest cannon."<br>
<br>
After giving the order a few minutes passed until the six gunboats that had cloaked reappeared below the Conrad in a circular formation, their guns were not rotated or aimed at the unknown ship and they, like the Conrad, did not move or attempt to turn into an offensive pose towards the ship. <br>
<br>
"Sending the message now sir," the console declared in a monotone and robotic voice. "Unaware we were that warning shots were declarations of war, unaware we are that you do not perceive your actions as hostile, we only meant to give you the benefit of the doubt. Translations are being attempted, please continue direct contact with our command ship, our smaller ships have been uncloaked to show your kind that we mean you no harm. Your ships will not be fired upon unless you force us to protect ourselves......... please do not threaten the safety of our children again."<br>

Peering around him Yeron found that the counter attack had failed, although many enemies lie dead with his own men. A glorious fight for the Overlord is all that can be hoped for when one is approaching death, but it too fast he thought. After smirking at the thought of his brethren venturing into the eternal he found himself confused, why was he here to see this, was he alive? Yeron reached up to his face and felt it, he was alive. He hadn't seen it until now but he was surrounded by the vermin that his men had done battle with, the Overlord had spared him from death, his journey was not over. The vermin spoke in their disgusting language, the thought of their unnatural and taboo ways made his blood boil. To Yeron's dismay he understood nothing that these beasts spoke, uncivilized to the point that they spoke in tongues, until the female among them spoke in the Traitor's Tongue. <br>
<br>
Yeron looked at the hand extended to him and frowned, now that they killed his friends they wanted to help? <i>Strange creatures</i> he thought as he put a hand behind him and pushed himself into a standing position. He towered over the vermin, but as soon as he stood and his blood began pumping he felt wobbly and his vision blurred. Putting his hand on the boarding ship he steadied himself and blinked several times to clear his blurry vision. After he had recomposed himself he sized up the three vermin in front of him, two males one female, medium size, deadly weapons, just before he was going to take a swing at the nearest vermin a thought popped into his mind. <i>Did the Overlord really protect me from death just to die to these hordes of vermin?  </i>Yeron glared at the three vermin and his hot blood began to cool, his once blazing red eyes calmed as he looked down at his planning book that must have fallen out of his pocket. It had fallen to where it opened to the page with the pictures of his sons. With a grin he reached down and picked it up. Then he looked back up at the creatures and smiled, he was meant for more than exterminating a handful of vermin. <br>
<br>
"I would tell your men to get away from the ship, the pilot is armed and has orders to disallow anything to commandeer the vessel, the on board weapons and armor is unusable by your kind so your natural thievery instincts will do no good. Also, before you continue your own initiated hostilities, keep in mind I was sent here to talk, not slaughter. I ordered my men to hold fire until fired upon, that's the only reason you're alive."  Yeron spoke slowly as to make sure the vermin could understand his words, he knew it was harder for low IQ creatures to understand even their own language.<br>

(Continued)<br>​</div>"Yep, good ol' Fort Patriae."<br>
<br>
Molin stared at it in disbelief, it was huge. Most soldiers who were stationed there called it Maginot, after the French fort from the second World War. Two massively gauged AA guns stood at the entrance, and a bulkhead the size of three school buses blocked everything in it's path when closed.<br>
<br>
"Damn... if it were any bigger i would think i was looking at a starship." Molin whistled afterwards, adding a bit of awkwardness to the sight.<br>
<br>
 "C'mon man we have to report." The quilted man was starting to get annoyed, and pretty clearly too.<br>
<br>
Both of them broke off into a brisk jog towards the Fort.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center">☆  ☆  ☆<br>​</div>Once they both reached the Fort's outer bulkhead they witnessed massive amounts of construction equipment, strewn all about the main runway, forklifts, titanium alloy, etcetera.<br>
<br>
"Damn, as if it needs to get bigger, huh?" Molin chuckled, staring up at the already massive building.<br>
<br>
"Ha, lets see the inside then, maybe it does need to get bigger." The man in the quilted helmet took off the cloth on his helmet, revealing a name tag on his squama, mostly scratched out, closer analysis shows that it say 'Becker Spuran'.<br>
<br>
Molin walked up to a microphone on the far side of the door, holding down a red button with a speaker printed on it. <br>
<br>
"Uh, hello, this is Pvt. Reebin, serial number: 46W891 and Pvt. Spuran, serial number: 71F929, we have been stationed here according to one Lieutenant Commander Torris." He counted out the syllables in Torris, a nervous habit. Molin took his hand off of the button.<br>
<br>
"How many additional?" A serious female voice crackled through the speaker next to the microphone.<br>
<br>
Putting his hand back on the button he spoke, "Counted thirteen originally, still being shipped here. Transports being the UCM Belgorad and the UCM Trentino." He waited for the woman to speak.<br>
<br>
"Standby." The door started to open slowly, giving Becker and Molin a strange feeling, like a mouse caught in a trap. As it opened it revealed a long hallway, multiple smaller doorways into barracks and other buildings, and multiple guards.<br>
<br>
Becker decided to lighten the mood, "Comon man, you scared?" He smirked behind his helmet, and walked in.<br>
<br>
"You better believe it, Beck." Saying that, Molin followed him to a nearby Barracks.</div>

We were enroute to the Supercarrier of the Dominion, a massive ship said to house the Elite fighter squadrons of the Dominion.

<br>
But now... its as seems as the Mothership has called its flock to assemble in her resting grounds, B7R. They reported multiple slipspace ruptures, something that the Emperor has feared of happening. Are they friendly? or are they foes ready to invade us? i'd ask the opinions of this ship i was put on to by the Military but they were all on alert.<br>
<br>
Few minutes has gone by and all of the Personel came rushing towards every windows and view ports that the Valais has to offer, managing to get a glimpse, it was what we have feared...<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Casos, Outer Colonies, Femian Space<br>
Federation of the Defiant Headquarters, Ma Turan Territories<br>
</b><br>
Nata Kelvek had seen many things in her time as leader of the Defiant, but an Institute turncoat dying right in-front of her for seemingly no reason and then consequently having her consciousness rescued by what was very clearly government technology was.. Something new to say the least of it. Folding her arms and pacing back and forth worriedly as her best doctors and tech experts worked tirelessly to find out just what had been put inside the spy to cause that reaction upon the reveal of any information. It was a new technology from what she could tell, technology that she hadn't ever seen before--though for all she knew maybe the Hierarchy was already aware of its existence. Not that she could care less at the moment, turning round to face Raych, the woman who had brought the Institute spy to the Defiant headquarters as she was busy speaking to the turncoat herself. Who had now taken on a name that she'd come up of her own intuition, Kara but who was unfortunately for the time being constricted to holographic form whilst a new physical form was grown for her. Nata wished that it wouldn't take as long as it was going to but they were a small rebel movement, it wasn't as if they had access to the same state of the art biotech that the Hierarchy or those that had sent Kara did. So they would have to wait for their new friend to get a body, but that didn't stop them from asking the questions that they needed to ask. And oh had they asked questions--but unfortunately there hadn't been many answers so it had turned out to be fortunate that the two women had chosen to go to the rebels with their information instead of their government counterparts.<br>
<br>
"I never said it before and I was wrong in not saying it, but thank you. Both of you for having the courage to come and tell us about all of this, especially you, Kara. Considering what would've happened if your friend hadn't come prepared." Nata said with a warm and welcoming nod, pulling out a chair and resting down onto it with a sigh, rubbing her forehead. "Fortunately your DNA was half a century out of date by the standards of Femian genetics so that would imply that your former employers do not have up to date information on our people. Which would make sense of why they would be sending you in to learn more. I fear we may have to inform the Hierarchy of this discovery as it concerns all Femians not just us and we hardly have the resources to conduct a hunt across dozens of systems for potentially dangerous spies." It was unfortunately a dark reality that they had to face and not just that but embrace, despite the long list of major greviances that both Nata and her followers had with the Hierarchy, Nata knew that both parties given the right circumstances such as this would put the safety of all Femians above their comparatively petty differences. Though the other two seemed to disagree. Raych being the one to speak up first. "The sole reason that we chose to come here was so that we didn't have to face the Hierarchy. Do you know what they could do to Kara? Or the rest of Civilized Space if they found out that someone was spying on them?" Nata nodded understandingly. "Yes, Ms. Avios I am well aware of the reprecussions of my decision. But rest assured we will keep both you and Kara safe from any potential action on the part of the military. Once Kara is put into her new body we can focus more on finding out what the Institute put into her original one--"<br>
<br>
"And what then? Once all that's said and done, and the Hierarchy knows about the other spies. What happens then?" Nata turned to focus more on Raych, who still seemed to be somewhat cautious and even protective over the whole situation. "What happens then, Ms. Avios is we provide you and Kara with new identities and drop you off on the nearest inhabited world in the outer colonies. Far from all the action, where you can live safely from both the Hierarchy and the Institute. But for now we need to keep our eyes on the ball lest we risk losing it. Now get some rest, I know you've had a long journey here, Kara, your new body should be ready by the end of the week, till then if you can assist us any further that would be wonderful. And again, I thank both of you for coming here in the first place." And with that, Nata stood up, pushed her chair back in and departed from the room. Leaving the two women to their own devices as the communications room of the Defiant HQ begun busying themselves with the task of passing along the information they had learned from Kara to the nearest Hierarchy fleet without alerting them to their presence, which would certainly prove to be a daunting task but one that wasn't entirely impossible given enough time and effort.<br>

"All personnel prepare for immediate deployment. Be advised, target zone is hot. Set weapon safeties off. Be prepared for potential crowd control." A voice from the slim transport vessel's interior speaker called out to the two lines of Ground Corps assault troopers who stood orderly alongside one another, weapons held tightly in their hands as they lightly shook back and forth from the weight of the ship shifting from side to side as it approached its location, two other ships of the same class following closely behind with a small fighter escort keeping close by. Originally this recovery operation had been intended for either the Naval Corps infantry or those of the Terror Corps, however at the last second the Ground Corps had stepped in to claim their jurisdiction over the situation due to the fact that it involved matters important to genetic engineering, the realm of national security that they were responsible for. As such that was how it came to be that the three inbound Hermes-class transport shuttles were carrying their load of assault troopers over marines or their terror counterparts. Praetus. Vessa being one of the troopers on-board those shuttles, though of course Praetus wasn't her first name but her rank, which was the Femian equivelant to a private of other nations. She was a young woman of 5'10 who had only recently joined the Ground Corps as a volunteer over being conscripted for her mandatory two year period and it was safe to say that this was her first operation in foreign space, gripping tightly onto her rifle as her armored feet shifted to the left slightly at a sudden jolt in the shuttle. "All personnel, thirty seconds to deployment." Vessa let out a long, controlled breath, shaking her head momentarily as she felt the shuttle shake.<br>
<br>
They had landed. The ramp at the front of the shuttle lowered and the two rows of troopers begun spilling out in an orderly fashion into one of the many crowded courtyard entrances to the large space station complex known as the Procyon Chopyards, the two additional transport shuttles docking beside the first one as even more troopers loaded off. Marching towards their objective as the crowds of unsavory and lowly characters regardless of how wealthy they were parted for them like the red sea. And those that wouldn't step aside facing the harsh reality of a rough push to the ground or for those that chose to be aggressive even being hit over the head with the butt of a rifle. It had caused a disturbance to be sure and the bystanders clearly weren't very happy with the presence of such a uniformed, organized force in what was usually their mostly lawless playground but what else could they do? A Femian fleet of multiple battlecruisers of varying classes, even more frigates and corvettes and two entire Siege Dreadnoughts had essentially occupied this part of the system, their destructive weapons eyeing up all potential threats with a stone-gaze as squadrons of Nerio fighters screeched back and forth, surrounding the Chopyards. The Hierarchy had never before expressed such a display of military prowess outside of their own territory before and so to any outsider it was clear how valuable whatever was hidden away in those Chopyards was to the Femians. The platoons of troopers that had stormed into the Chopyards being led by a Caeptus by the second name of Handor, her dark green formal uniform distinguishing her quite massively from her fully white-armored subordinates.<br>
<br>
"Troopers, secure all entrances to the Agamemnon, I don't want anything or anyone getting in or out without me knowing about it." She ordered fiercely, a vocoded barrage of "Yes ma'am." being her response as the troopers spread out, pulling large crates and other containers from the side and using them as impromptu cover with some setting up their heavy automated blasters on tripods behind said cover. Ready to ensure that nothing left the vessel without their permission. Fortifying their position at the entrance to the long section of tubing that connected the Agamemnon to the Chopyards, even setting up positions behind them in the event that other potential threats emerged from their rear guard. <br>

<b>Tios, Outer Colonies, Femian Space<br>
Unidentified Vessel, 28th Fleet Blockade</b><br>
<br>
Captain Fayte watched through the live feed of what was going on aboard the unidentified vessel with a look of confusion. The numerous intelligence agents who had formerly been working behind her having stopped their work to view what was being shown to their marines as well, the entire bridge seemingly going quiet as what was very clearly a film was played. Fayte's lips moved but no words were emitted, she was at a loss frankly. In all her years of naval service she had never seen someone try to pose a movie off as a real show of military strength. And it wasn't as if the effects were a give away, no computer generated graphics had universally grown to become virtually indistinguishable from real life unless one used a program to determine the difference, but it was the presentation that was the blatant give away. These cinematic angles and shots being shown made it clear that it was all a movie, one that was very clearly to be used as propaganda for the citizens of whatever this nation was. To undoubtedly further glorify this so-called 'Overlord' that they'd been hearing so much of ever since her marines had come aboard that vessel. Even Femian war movies didn't have this much propaganda in them and that was admittedly saying something.Besides even when they did it wasn't this obviously shown and was hardly this unbelievable. If such a nation of alien life forms existed then surely the Hierarchy would have already found out about them, but no it was staged, faked for dramatic purposes. But now that left her with the burden of finding an appropriate response, how did one respond to such an occurance? She certainly hadn't been taught how to respond to being shown a movie in the academy.<br>
<br>
She sighed, closing her eyes momentarily as her counterpart on the unknown side finished with what he was saying. "Ensaesus. Inform the boarding party I require an open comms link with their captain." She ordered a low-ranking ensaesus, the Femian equivelant of an ensign who was sitting in one of the two data pits on either side of Fayte. The Ensaesus nodding as she went to work with the console in-front of her. Suddenly the black-robe donning figure at the front of the party of marines on-board the unknown vessel felt a buzzing from the closest thing she had to a pocket--Knowing immediately what it was as she pulled out a small circular looking device, holding it up for the captain of the unknown vessel to see as a holographic form of Captain Fayte appeared in-uniform, hands behind her back as she nodded in greeting to her counterpart on the other ship. "Greetings. I am Captain Fayte of the FSV Varnarmaður, flagship of the 28th Fleet of the Femian Naval Corps. And as much of a well-made production that was, I'm afraid we haven't quite exactly fallen for it though I do genuinely appreciate the effort to impress us. Unfortunately I do not have the authority to make official declarations on behalf of the Femian Hierarchy however I do have the authority and the confidence to state that I do not believe the Femian people would be at all interested in being brainwashed by your leader. However if your leader wishes to engage in further diplomacy with us, I can safely assure you that we would be most open to that however a word of note would be not to attempt to push any more propaganda onto us. Now if your Overlord desires to end this conversation then so be it, we would order you to leave our space as soon as possible. However if he does wish to continue then I'm sure we can arrange something more official." <br>

<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">Deep within the darker regions of the city world, Chadwick had just been dispatched by his superiors - along with many other of his follow agents - to investigate the rise of illegal weapon imports. The task itself was withheld from the public authorities. Discretion was essential, and media coverage wouldn’t gift such a necessary tool.<br>
<br>
Chadwick was already trailing a potential suspect. A tall and brooding man, he was. The agent had noticed a series of exchanges concerning a single item of interest. The object itself was a secure case: digital security and all the other goodies. Normal people don’t swap their property around like this, obviously.<br>
<br>
Their little game was approaching an end, as the suspicious figure stopped just before the back door of a tap house. Chadwick soon became cautious as time passed and nothing else happened. He was prepared to engage the target.<br>
<br>
Out of nowhere, the man brought his case around and hurled it straight towards the agent. By instinct, he raised his arms to repel the surprise attack. When he brought his arms to a fighting stance, he noticed he was now looking down the barrel of a pistol of foreign origin. By luck the gap between the two combatants was thankfully short enough for Chadwick to charge and launch his elbow into his opponent’s rib cage. He then brought his attacker’s gun arm over his shoulder and applied an uncomfortable amount of pressure until he could finally hear the sound of bones cracking and a gun smacking the floor. For a finishing move, Chadwick briefly retreated before then sending his elbow directly into the temple of his opponent and acquainting their head with the door.<br>
<br>
The case was free to take, and so the agent took. It was locked. That special kind of touch was needed. “Agent B6. I have acquired something of interest.”<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b>Procyon Space</b><br>
A small group of, what appeared to be, Pirates. They were more orderly and better trained then pirates and seemed to have a military like structure.The Captain picked up the Femians on his sensors as his small fleet settled out of the jump. "Damn it. Our orders are to ensure any conflict with the Femians is, if possible, avoided and, if not, causalities minimised. With that said I want the Valari, the Longbeard and the Silver to fire at the Femian ships once my own ship and the Cutlass have placed ourselves behind a planet. Once they lock on to you and chase you bring them on a goose chase through Luyten to Lelande. If you haven't lost them make your way to Lyra, I doubt they will follow through House Owned Space." He gave the orders to his ships, each named after something that history told them was 'Pirate-y'. With his orders made he placed his own ship, the Sail, alongside the Cutlass behind a nearby large asteroid. "Before you fire, remember we are to keep casualties on all sides to a MINIMUM. Now, fire away." he said as his other two ships turned off all systems outside of basic sensors and life-support to minimise their own visibility.<br>

<b>Luyten IV, Luyten</b><br>
"Gentlemen. We are to go under Gray Operating regulations for the next few hours. Ensure your staff are aware that most work will be halted until further notice. We have reason to believe there are Pirates in large numbers in a nearby System and they may pass back through. The Trade Security have it underhand but they want us to operate under Grey until all non-mission ships leave the system." Came the voice of Security Chief Haines over the various communication systems to the heads of different operations. He then turned off the the transmission and said to those around him "They want us to get this done swiftly because the bigger our footprint the better the claim yet they put us under a damned Grey Order. How long are we going to have to operate without the damned lights on?" Just as he said that the large lights that provided a near daylight warmth shut off to be replaced with a dim blue hue a few seconds later. "It'll be some covert Op I've no doubt" he muttered to himself.<br>
<br>
<b>Lelande, Luyten Jump Station</b><br>
"Ok. Once the Luyten Sensors pick up 'unknown' vessels we are to jump into the system, but we will not give chase. We will fire at them and then continue on to Procyon to capture the Captain of the Sail. He is our prize and his Cargo belongs to us." Said Regional Cheif of Trade Security, Krytiou Ingstrom, the youngest son of the current Trademaster. He knew the gameplan in full. He was to wait so the Captain of the Sail could complete his plan to seize 'the goods' and then Krytiou was to capture the Captain and secure the goods. He was then told he should return to Lelande while the politicians then inform the Femians that they found some goods, stolen, and they wished to return them. The political efforts were a little beyond him but he understood the military operation and planned to execute it perfectly, completely unaware that the Femians had already secured the Cargo.<br>
<br>
<b>Institute</b><br>
Gailian had to bite his tongue as the events that were unfolding in trade with the Femians were being updated to him. "They certainly wont hire quite so many soldiers but they purchase other products in... well larger amounts then you are currently offering. To top it off they dont request we cut deals with other nations. If you are going to insist of this course of action that I will insist we maintain our current relationship and I can only hope you seek to buy from us in the future." he replied with a sigh.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Bridge of the Femian Flagship, Procyon<br>
</b>​</div>Shortly after the Femian ships had come out of their jump, an urgent communique flashed across the bridge of the flagship. The figure that appeared was a grizzled older woman in a navy blue uniform. <br>
<br>
"This is Admiral Kola of the Procyon Provisional Navy. Your ships are in violation of Procyonian Sovereignty and their presence is not appreciated. Where do you get off thinking you can park your dreadnoughts wherever you please? I intend to speak to your commanding officer!"<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>The <i>Agamemnon<br>
</i></b>​</div>The Skyre troops boarded the ancient ship to a chaotic scene. The pirates had mostly won, and driven the scavengers back into the unused medical wing of the ship. The bark of Curatorium combat rifles, however, signalled a turning of the tide as the Lorekeeper troops mercilessly gunned down pirate and salvager alike. Both parties retreated into the recesses of the ship, being slowly hunted down by additional squads of Lorekeepers who were clearing the ship in their heavy combat armor. <br>
<br>
With his vanguard squad, Captain Fischer stormed the bridge. He was first confronted by Rickets the salvager, holding a nine-millimeter pistol. The salvager balked, pointed the gun at him, and fired. Unfortunately, the bullet ricocheted off of the Captain's chestplate and struck the salvager in the stomach, sending him to the floor to be filled with another four or five .45 auto rounds from the next Curatorium trooper. They wiped out the rest of the salvagers, with Captain Irons and Olphas retreating forthwith from the bridge across a raised catwalk stretched over the chamber with the cryogenic pods. From here, they and their pursuers could see Femian troopers entering the ship. <br>
<br>
"Femians!" Fischer shouted to his subordinates. "Order the men to stand their ground, fire if fired upon." He turned back to the catwalk. "I'll take care of the pirates."<br>
<br>
Across the ship, the Femians ran into Curatorium troops holding their weapons at the ready stance but not firing upon them. They were shouting for them to stay back.<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, above the cryostasis pods, Captain Fischer pursued the pirates. He pulled out a plasma revolver and as he did so Olphas turned towards him and quailed as a plasma bolt melted his face and he clattered to the floor between the rows of nervous Curatorium and Femian troops shouting at each other in disjointed attempts at one anothers' languages. Running out of catwalk, Irons turned to face Fischer who had the revolver pointed right at his face. The pirate ducked right and missed the first shot, catching the second shot in the arm with a gasp. He felt his arm go numb as the plasma bolt scorched his skin, gouged his flesh, and burned his nerves to a crisp. He reached with his free hand and took hold of a loose metal bar, flinging it at his attacker and disarming him. While Fischer instinctively grasped his injured right hand, Irons stepped forward and launched a right hook, which Fischer caught with his left arm, flinging the pirate back into the railing. <br>
<br>
With a groan, Irons shook his dead arm and confirmed that he had lost all feeling in it. He launched another punch and caught Fischer this time against the jaw and sent him reeling back. The pirate took this moment to reach to his left and draw his melee weapon, a small, short sword resembling a machete with a serrated blade. He swung, and Fischer turned his blow by grabbing hold of his arm and pulling him through the swing. He swung again, missing entirely and landing his blow against the metal railing that gave way and clattered to the floor below. By then, Fischer had drawn the naval cutlass that was sheathed on his hip. They traded blows, Irons parried, then Fischer, then the pirate again. Fischer broke the cycle by making a quick jab on his assailant and delivering a blow across his mouth with the guarded hilt of his sword. Irons hit the metal floor of the catwalk and spat blood and teeth. He looked up and squinted at the Lorekeeper captain, who had his sword held against the pirate's throat. Slowly, Fischer ordered him to rise. <br>
<br>
"A worthy opponent among Procyon rabble. I have been surprised before." Fischer remarked. "Well, what will it be then, prison or Hell?"<br>
<br>
"With respect," Irons said in his most exaggerated, poshest accent, "I choose Hell."<br>
<br>
"Very well," Fischer remarked. He saluted then ran the sword through the pirate's throat. He died choking on his own blood. Casually, the Curatorium captain wiped the blood on Irons' clothes and sheathed his sword. He could see that the ship was abuzz with activity given the arrival of the Femians. <br>
<br>
When Fischer reached the ground floor, between the cryopods, he went to the front of the Curatorium soldiers that were staring down the Femian troops and called out in an oddly accented, but passable rendition of the Femian language, "This vessel and its occupants are under the protection of the Lorekeeper's Guild, and by extension the House Skyre. Send forth your commanding officer for parlay."<br>

"do as they say, at least until the fleet arrives, keep the torpedoes trained on the main ship and tell those knights to get comfortable" The captain put her hand on her head, she wasnt qualified for diplomatic talks, she was just a captain of a patrol ship. Stalling for her father to get there was her best option really, what else could she do? judging from the silence coming from the curatorium's ship she feared the worst may have happened."send them this transmission\<br>

"If they wish to remain, there's no harm. Though they can not enter the facility." Hand waits at the second set of doors to open with the tube breathing a set of  chemical gases onto everyone inside. The doors open with a gentle voice coming over the speakers within the room. "Decontamination complete. Welcome to Variscite, princess." Two of the droids remain in the tube with the guards while the last one follows close behind the party.<br>
<br>
Hand rounds a corner before stopping, moving an arm in gesture to show the princess the way. Down this path stood a number of less intimidating droids all equipped with fire arms. They stood in front of most of the doorways in the corridor. On the left side of the hall was a large glass wall that revealed a strange floor where two very unique looking droids were engaged in a fight to the death. To the right appeared to be nothing by chambers or sealed off rooms.<br>
<br>
The speakers of the combat unit speak in a similar tone to the voice heard in the tube, "Your gift was thoughtful but we have little use for such a thing. After all, what use is a sword if I have no hands with which to wield it?" As they pass by the glass window two men come into view. They spot the visitors and appear to lose interest in their match. The broader one of the two looks away to hide his face while the thinner framed one turns his head away as he grabbed something off the table before him, only to turn back wearing a rather odd looking facial mask.<br>
<br>
"I'm certain you have a lot of questions regarding this place, our people, us. Even myself. Please follow the corridor. There's a room waiting for you." As they pass by the less intimidating droids their vocal speakers begin to play the same message. "Might I ask how you enjoy your tea, princess?"<br>

"Then it's decided." The droid raises itself out of its chair and places a hand on the table. "We'll make movements into the Victoria system as soon as possible. This threat of yours is more pressing than our payment but we do expect you to help supply us with our ammunition. We'll send the appropriate information when we return." The droid begins towards the exit and looks back at the diplomats. "I pray for both our sakes that these rebels of yours yield quickly."<br>
<br>
The droid is escorted back to its shuttle where it proceeds to meld with ship's interface. The flight back to Venus would be long but with the ship's signal boosting apparatuses, it could relay the message back to the archons with little risk of it being lost due to file corruption or attacks. The shuttle spends two hours or more in the silent zone before messages between the archons and the ambassador could be transmitted.<br>
<br>
They interpret the agreed upon deal finding the negotiations incredibly short but certainly worthy of immediate action. Minerva is instructed by Veneria not to waste time. While defending holy Terra was important they came to the agreement that this rebel subjugation could be dealt with a lot faster if the blue raven was present. They agree and begin the preparations necessary with Dala, Biyu and Dianna all providing reasons why this course of action wasn't the best choice. Veneria over rules their input and follows through with the idea. It'd take some time to load the blue raven up with everything it needed.</span></div>

The captain snarled in disgust as the Overlord translated what the vermin leader had said. "Eow dol−lic nîeten âræfnan nealles forcunnian dôð tôdâl betwêonan sôðsagol verb staðolfæst eft!" the captain had begun yelling in his own tongue before he was stopped by the calm voice of the Overlord. Without warning a shimmering figure appeared behind the captain, placing a hand on his shoulder. "There were errors in translation, or so we believe," said the shimmering figure. After a few seconds of the shimmering growing in color volume it finally ended as the shimmering was revealed to be one of the Chosen, turning off his cloaking device. The Chosen stood a few feet above the captain, his suit making him almost into a tank. The Captain looked back and exchanged a few inaudible words with the Chosen before walking away.<br>
<br>
"Like I stated, before I sent the captain away, there were a few translation errors. What you just saw was the recreation of the battle of Loktahm 7, in the Canis Dwarf Galaxy. The real battle lasted months, we had to fight the demons off the planet but it was still utterly destroyed, and the Hand of God was the only reason we weren't all killed. The real battle is designated to only be used for training purposes, billions of our people from many different races were lost fighting the creatures and many of us still bare the losses of loved ones. The captain did not correctly tell you what this was, he said the Overlord will show you. What he should have said is the Overlord will give you a show. Only a few of us speak your tongue fluently, I apologize for his errors. The captain spoke what he thought was right, I speak what the Overlord wishes to confer..." the Chosen paused as he removed his helmet revealing his pale skin, brown hair, and the same red eyes as the captain. "The Overlord does not want your people, as you say, brainwashed. He only ventures to our ancient home because he thinks more enemies of great magnitude linger here. The Overlord exists to protect us all from those who tread in the void, I know it's strange hearing words that make no sense to outsiders, so let me explain differently. The Overlord wants to make sure you understand that if an enemy comes that we must face, it is an enemy that you can not hide from or run from. We've lost before, and many civilizations were lost as we did." The Chosen had been speaking calmly with his eyes locked on the so called Captain Fayte. <br>

Yeron smiled as the security officer walked away,"A captain? Your kind are more civilized than I thought, I'll make sure to note that in the logs," Yeron said while pressing a few buttons on his wrist,"If you make sure my wounded survive it would be very much in your favor. Also, do you mind if I contact the frigate? I think they'd like to know that things are going.... well." Yeron questioned as he began walking towards the hallway. <br>

"Hah! Their court of law? Send word to the Overlord that we may require assistance." The captain had been very lax on the part of his ship but only realized once he sat at his chair that the boarding party hadn't responded in some time. With a confused look he began looking through his wrist console, seeing that no word had been received from the men he had sent, except that the pilot had set off the emergency door lock to the cockpit. Jumping to attention he began frantically going through the ship screens until he found the boarding ship screen. <br>
<br>
"Command from captain, all ships listen, all ships listen. Prepare for offensive formation against hostile VS-2! All wings mobilize under the veil!" The captain had let the command go through his underlings until the entire ship was ready for combat. "I want all wings under the veil until we can confirm the death of the boarding party, send word to the Overlord that we demand reinforcements, casualties are unknown at this point." The captain commanded hastily as he paced back and forth, on the verge of panicking. <br>
<br>
The fighters, interceptors, gunships, and bombers in the hangar of both the Conrad and the gunboats were on high alert, hovering close to the doors of their own hangars. While wing ships had cloaking devices they weren't able to hold it long enough to be effective in space combat, especially when not accompanied by large flagships like the Crypt. <br>

"Ma'am, incoming communication. Local military forces." A comms specialist down in one of the data pits relayed up to the Sword of Luminara's commanding officer and leader of the 37th Fleet who went by the rank and name of Rear-Admiral Prie, the uniformed woman nodding as she quickly responds. "Let it through." The message plays, the angered older woman saying what she said to the Captain as the younger woman nodded understandingly. "Of course, Admiral. We meant no disrespect, our diplomats would be more than willing to explain our situation to your civilian counterparts in a more formal setting. However as of now it is a need to know basis and you, no offense intended, do not need to know. What you can know however is that our operation will not last long and our ships shall be out of your hair before you know it. I would highly recommend not engaging in any aggressive or provocational actions when in the presence of our fleet as it will needlessly complicate things. Thank you for your time, now if you don't mind--" Rear-Admiral Prie had been about to finish off her response with before being interrupted by one of her subordinates in the data pits on either side of her. Calling up in a rather surprised and urgent manner, "Ma'am. A group of unknown vessels in attack formation have just engaged the Trident of Pelissia. Her Captain is requesting orders." Prie's once formal and unfazed look turned to one of near-shock, some random group of ships had just fired on a Femian dreadnought? It was like something out of a movie, shaking her private thoughts off as she sternly gazed to the comms specialist and replied. "Put the Captain through to me, and I want a BDA on the Trident immediately." Prie demanded harshly, the anger now setting in of such an unprovoked and cowardly attack on her fleet. "Yes, ma'am. And the Trident has already sent their BDA, no damage recieved. They were able to reinforce their shields in-time for the initial assault." At least that was good news, but now she had to make a decision.<br>
<br>
"Rear-Admiral." Captain Alkera of the Trident of Pelissia greeted her superior respectfully, though there was a look of some concern written across her expression. "Captain. I understand your ship recieved no damage?" The Captain nodded. "Fortunately. What are your orders, our dreadnought, the Kalava, Tasamore and Arrisian have all moved into attack formation and are ready to fire on your word. The enemy vessels are fast but they aren't out of range just yet." Prie smiled knowingly. "I believe you know my answer, Captain. Fire at will. I want those vessels turned to scrap. Chase them out of the system if you can't destroy them but don't follow them, we may need you here." Alkera nodded. "Of course, ma'am." Before her hologram faded away from the front of the command bridge. Turning now to face the windows as a section of her fleet was dispatched in the direction of the unknown vessels, pursuing fast enough to not catch them but to keep them in range so that their weapons would remain effective without the need to dispatch fighters and bombers--which would be needlessly putting pilots' lives in danger just for a couple of worthless pirates. Of course however the Captain of the Trident of Pelissia could be trusted to follow her Rear-Admiral's instructions in not pursuing the attackers out of system range, sure they had committed a crime against the Hierarchy but the current objective was much too valuable to the Hierarchy to warrant such a pursuit, every ship in the 37th was required even if not needed to secure the area around the Chopyards for the extraction of personnel with their cargo and to fend off any potential threats to the acquiring of said cargo. The Rear-Admiral had been put in a very fragile position, if she was successful in this operation then it was essentially guaranteed that a promotion would come up relatively soon, however if she wasn't--well Prie would've rather not busied her mind with such impossibilities.<br>

"Caeptus. Handor, this best be important, I have other matters to attend to right now." Rear-Admiral Prie spoke impatiently as she held her hands behind her back, looking towards the Caeptus with an expecting gaze, her holographic form overall seemingly displeased with the interruption as the Ground Corps NCO tried her best not to glare at her superior though given how angry she was this was becoming more and more of a feat to master. "It is, Rear-Admiral. My women have ran into soldiers belonging to House Skyre. They're claiming that the ship is theirs." The Rear-Admiral, who had previously been somewhat disinterested in her subordinate of another branch's update was immediately brought back into the conversation at that information. Pinching the bridge of her nose as she withheld a groan of irritation. "What are our orders, Rear-Admiral." Handor asked, clearly impatient though trying her best to remain professional. It wasn't as if she had the time to wait for a response, and it wasn't as if the Rear-Admiral had that time either. "Do you know what it is that they want?" Prie finally asked, Handor shaking her head. "Not entirely no, however we can assume that they want the ship given that they have claimed it. More importantly given the profile we have on them, it would appear that they're more interested in the passengers." Prie's hands tightened their grip over one another as her facial features grew closer in a similar fashion. "Caeptus, you are not to allow those passengers into Skyre hands under any circumstances. Retrieve the females and extract your troops, Skyre may have the males if they so wish. But we require at the very least half of those passengers." Handor nodded with a glimmer of determination in her eye. "Of course, ma'am." Though just as she thought their conversation had ended, Prie put in a last word. "If you fail, you will have to answer to a far less patient audience. Do not." <br>
<br>
Prie's physically transparent form then disappeared, indicating that she had ended their conversation first. Handor taking a second to regain her composure after the threat of the unknown if she were to fail in her mission. She couldn't, it was of the utmost importance to the Hierarchy, to her sisters--Being taken out of her thoughts by the appearance of one of her troopers, she turned to face the white armored figure and bowed her head once in acknowledgement. "What is it?" She asked, the trooper replying through her helmet. "Their commanding officer wishes to speak with you." Handor again bowed her head, gesturing with her arm wide open for the trooper to lead the way as the two women disappeared into the tubing that led them to the ship, this Agamemnon as it had been named all those centuries ago. Soon entering the ship itself to the rather unsavory sight of a number of baseline troops and their leader, Handor held back her look of disgust at the thought of such primitive hands laying claim to such valuable genetic information. Her people had spent centuries improving themselves with information such as this and here these baselines were desiring to waste such great potential for advancement in their own genome because of some ancient book. It made the hairs on her arm stand up in discomfort at the concept of how such a large number of individuals could hold such a deluded belief. Shaking it off however as she approached the men, taking a look over at them in almost childlike curiosity as she.. Hadn't really seen a man before, only in pictures and videos, keeping her hands behind her back in a professional manner, she looks up at the face of their leader. The one who had called for her presence, her troops standing in an ordered row behind her, weapons at the ready, in-case they were needed to be used against those of House Skyre in justifiable caution. <br>
<br>
"I am Caeptus. Handor of the Femian Ground Corps, a representative on behalf of the Femian Hierarchy and commanding officer of the ground element of this operation. I regret to inform you that the female passengers of this vessel are to be turned over to Femian supervision so that we may acquire genetic samples for potential advances in our genome. I am required on the grounds of ethics to inform you that these passengers will not be harmed and will be rewarded greatly under our care for their invaluable service to the Hierarchy and her people. I must also inform you out of necessity that my troops and the fleet overhead are not to leave this system until those female passengers are in our custody. So, to save time for both of our peoples. I would humbly suggest that you hand them over and we shall be on our way."<br>

<b>Tios, Outer Colonies, Femian Space<br>
Unidentified Vessel, 28th Fleet Blockade<br>
</b><br>
The unknown commanding officer that stood across from the Femian troops snarled and began yelling in a tongue that none of the women understood or even had heard before, instinctively causing many--if not all of them to tighten their grips around their weapons and raise them only slightly, not knowing just how unhinged these people were when confronted with something such as this. It didn't take a FTL scientist to figure out that their people probably didn't take well to disrespect especially given how indoctrinated they seemed to be, the only thing having stopped this encounter from turning potentially violent having been the arrival of another figure, one who had drawn the Femians' attention from the more aggressive-acting captain of the vessel. Particularly the attention of Captain Fayte who had looked over to this new figure as he said that there had been some errors in translation. Causing the Captain to raise a holographic brow in curiosity. "And what sort of error might that have been." She asked, her tone indicating disinterest though her intent something more. Her foreign counterpart speaking briefly with this unnaturally sized man before leaving his presence. It appears as if the unknown party had changed the welcoming party.<br>
<br>
And now there seemed to be a second rendition of the story, however this time being told solely by the man's voice instead of the elaborate CGI and cinematic shots of the movie they had just been shown. Fayte folding her arms on the bridge of her battlecruiser and her holographic representation following suite as she watched the armored man speak. A battle that took place in another galaxy? With billions of casualities on either side? She shook her head with disapproval, suspecting that her counterparts in the Diplomacy Corps also wouldn't be open to this kind of nonsense without some solid, undeniable evidence. The man removed his helmet and although clearly Human underneath it, there were some telltale hints of possibly extensive genetic modification, if one couldn't already tell from his sheer body mass alone that is, but he continued with his story--the one that had apparently been sanctioned by their leader himself, potentially one that they would repeat to any other foreigners that they encountered. And Fayte paid close attention, it wasn't as if she had any other choice, it was her duty and she needed all the facts available when she next spoke to her superiors, anything else would be negligance in the field. Though it did pain her to listen admittedly, she would never actually admit it to anyone other than herself out of courtesy and professionalism. "Though your story of intergalactic travel and battling demons with billions of casualities on either side was undoubtedly interesting, without hard, undeniable evidence I'm afraid our people will still choose the road of not believing you, my most sincere apologies for that." She said meaningfully before continuing. "I am curious as to what you mean by your ancient home, and I can say with confidence that there is no enemy, real or fictional that our people would flee from though our refusal to flee is not because of your apparent Overlord."<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>The Agamemnon<br>
</b>​</div>Captain Fischer watched uncomfortably as their commanding officer appeared, an NCO in a cloth uniform as opposed to soldiers in armored suits. He studied the lines of her face and noted the perfection of the geometry honed through dozens of generations of genetic engineering. She was unnerving in Fischer's eyes, human but not quite right. He backpedaled a halfstep with a mixture of fear and curiosity evident on his face. <br>
<br>
"Well then, Caeptus, I'm afraid I cannot simply give you the passengers." He said after a few seconds of this silent interchange. "My orders are the retrieval of these people for safe conduct and interview in the Curatorium. We do not deal in horsetrading people." <br>
<br>
He stiffened his chin. "Perhaps you would prefer to take the vessel by force. I assure you, my men will prevent you from doing so. My men have control of the ship's computer systems. They could easily open the radiation seals on the fusion reactor. Its an older model, leaks radiation everywhere. Even if you did extract the passengers, their DNA would already be exposed to unrecoverable levels of ionizing radiation." <br>
<br>
He paused. "So here is my solution. You take a few blood samples, and you leave. That's why you're here right? For the precious DNA," there was an anger rising in his voice, "you want these people for their genetic code because your people have polluted their own with redundancies and missing genes after centuries of playing God? And you want to steal these people to keep making Frankenstein monsters like yourself? Why should I allow it?" The Captain balled up his fists in anger, knowing that what he had said would be provocative in the extreme. He could not help himself. He couldn't stand before Christ on Judgement Day and admit that he traded away people for political expediency. <br>
<br>
Some of the Curatorium soldiers looked towards their commanding officer with worried expressions. They were much less invested than Fischer, a man who had spent his life in pursuit of history. Did he really plan to flood the ship with radiation? Was he bluffing? <br>

A pleasure to see a face behind that nice ship of yours." Astolfo softly chuckled as he studied the aged face of the Dominion Captain, noting the name of the fleet and his ship. "And to answer your request, I do indeed have orders to make peaceful contact with your fleet. Just give me a moment to patch you over to our Captain and hopefully you two may-"<br>
<br>
"What's that?!" <br>
"Lancet, we got fast movers opening fire on the unknown fleet!" <br>
<br>
"Damn... Its one thing after the other! Command, this is Warlock 1! What are our orders?!" Lancet quickly requested as he piloted his plane into formation, skimming the edge of the battlefield. After a few tense minutes, there was a crackle on the radio.<br>
<br>
"Warlock Flight, you are free to assist the Kestrel Fleet. Your planes are the only ones that will reach the unknown force in time. Good luck and Godspeed, pilots." <br>
<br>
"So just like that we're gonna help them? Talk about lucky..." Hammer chuckled on the radio as Warlock Flight entered interception formation. Lancet himself barely hid a small smirk of anticipation. Finally, they get to test their skill with unknown fighters. The 4 planes increased their relative altitude to the Dominion Fleet as Lancet reopened his communication channel with the Dominion flagship.<br>
<br>
"Worry not Captain Anderson. On our honor as RSF pilots, we shall assist you in dealing with these scum. Warlock 1 to all units, confirmed 10 hostiles." <br>
"Let's have some fun then~" <br>

Glancing over at her biosensor, it was clear that they were surrounded and there was a small voice telling her to not leave them there. Yet they seemed adamant on her leaving so... Flipping a switch, the cockpit of her Strider opened with a soft hiss.<br>
<br>
"Your choice. But if you ever change your mind..." Lydia lobbed a handheld communicator through the hole she made in the craft. "Contact us using that. We'll send you aid or whatever you need." <br>
<br>
Satisfied with pleasing her conscience, the Strider's cockpit locked shut and she began piloting it away. Stopping to glance at the Tempus Knights who seemed to be doing... something with the native lizard people. Stopping her Strider, she decided to watch the exchange happen. It doesn't hurt to be a little cautious for an ally after all.<br>

<b><b>Captain Amalindis Radegonda, <b>Admiral Sunericus Radegonda</b><br>
Javian Prime <br>
</b></b></b>​</div>Amalindis was sitting on her chair sighing while watching over her bridge crew operating the ship, her little break of relaxation was broken however as one of the sensor operating officers reported the defense fleet FTL-ing nearby. "finally" Amalindis smiled, "Open up communications to the admiral" <br>
The officer nodded and did so and quickly the screen went from a live feed of the unknown ship to the bridge of the Alluvial Faith, it was much more spacious than her smaller frigate which was expected and held more personel controling dozens more sensors equipment's and logistics. But in the middle of it all sitting in his admirals chair, Admiral Sunericus Radegonda, her father.<br>
"I am glad you are well captain Radegonda" <br>
Amalindis nodded "The unknown ship appeared near my ship and the curatorium's, they did an unauthorized boarding action and the curatorium ship has not attempted to communicate back to us." <br>
The Admiral was about to speak before Amalindis spoke up again. "The unknown ship and its escorting vessels have prevented us from boarding the ship to see what has transpired or if the crew is safe, it started making demands but we settled for a peaceful ceasefire, i waited until proper support came." She gestured to her father.<br>
Sunericus put a hand to his chin and rubbed it, "i see... Contact the unknown ships!"<br>
<br>
With a flick of the switch Amalindis's face disappeared and a screen showing the strange ship appeared, hailing them for a conversation on why they were doing here and what are they doing. "Unknown ship, you are within Concordat space, comply with your instructions and we will not fire upon you." The hail went through with instructions for a peaceful boarding action, their captain would have to board a transport vessel and come to his ship where the two leaders will meet.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><b>Sol System</b><br>
<b>Larissa Von Reichenau</b></b><br>
<b><b><b><b>Venus</b></b></b></b><br>​</div>Larissa watched as the Argents were slightly uneasy letting their princess go inside with only two of them and felt somehow guilty, of course all this was hidden under their helmets, they kept a posture that would only be seen as discipline. The Princess walked inside only to be showered in some sort of chemical gas, the two argents accompanying her flinched but Larissa herself stayed calm until the robot voice came over her ears telling her decontamination was complete. She wondered if the Human in this planet, if there were any could inhabit anywhere else, it seemed they lived in a sterile environment where these robots did everything. She followed the hand which led her around the building which seemed pristine with more robots everywhere, it was very clear she was getting a special treatment as most of the droids she had seen seemed armed in one way or another. Her train of thought was broken however as a droid spoke up asking about the gift. <br>
<br>
"It is only a customary gift, not used for any practical means. It is to signify and show that our nations will hopefully get along and become allies sometime in the future." Smiling at the droid before she went into another room where there were, suprisingly. Humans beyond some sort of glass. It was very apparent to her that she had interrupted something of theirs and judging by their actions when they saw her that the humans in this world were rather inclusive. <br>
<br>
Opening her mouth and about to ask a few questions about the two she was interrupted by the droid telling her to go to a set of doors into a room. Sighing she did as she was told, eyeing the not very threatening droids, the design was utilitarian at best, silly at worst. Sitting down in the room she was allowed a few seconds for her thoughts to be clear. If the humans were indeed inclusive that would make most communication with them a chore, the heavy use of robotics would indeed be a boon for the concordat but she doubt they'd simply lend their research in the matter. <br>
"Might I ask how you enjoy your tea, princess?" <br>
Her mind came back to reality as she looked up to where the voice came from, a droid. The two Argents slightly fidgeted as they knew Larissa didn't like her thoughts to be interrupted, remembering one time where an adept tried to get her attention when she was still sleepy and trying to wake up much to his, unfortunate incident. <br>
"I'd like my tea smooth, please"<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 22px"><span style="color: #bfbfbf">Mercury, Day Side</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #bfbfbf">Concilii Civitatem, Casterlands' Apartment</span><br>
<br>
<span class="horizontal-rule bbcode-horizontal-rule bbcode-horizontal-rule- ">Spokesman Quril Casterland</span></span>​</div>"Mr. Premier I kindly ask- no, that doesn't sound very good."<br>
<br>
"Oh great Premier Ostedt...! What am I, an Aztec sacrifice?"<br>
<div style="text-align: center">​</div>"Mr. Ostedt, tear down that wall!" Quril chuckled to himself wholeheartedly, staring into his bathroom mirror, the vote was in three hours, and he still had no idea as to what he was going to say.<br>
<br>
"Maybe humour? Look, i know they could probably end our planet in point five seconds but hey, think of all the new tie patterns they could have! I know you guys w- oh fuck that. Why did i think that would work."<br>
<br>
Quril left the bathroom and walked into his bedroom, putting on his jacket and moving to his kitchen he opened his refrigerator and grabbed a bottle of water, then walked into his living room, a very large television playing a documentary that is seemingly centered on Mercurian wildlife, a small swath of grass showing a little brown rodent with a strange elephant-like snout appearing on the screen.<br>
<br>
"<i>The Tesca is a small rat with a distinctive trunk hanging from it's snout. Mainly known for it's rather annoying squeal of alarm.</i>"<br>
<br>
The Tesca then made a noise much like a panthers meow, but with a strange guttural sound to it. Like a car starting almost.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center">☆  ☆  ☆​</div><br>
Quril was hoping that the government would fund contact with the Venusians, something that has been debated for quite awhile. Although, it would be tough. Very tough to get the majority vote, impossible to get a unanimous one. Nonetheless, the day was here.<br>
<br>
Checking his television's interface he noticed the time, 10:12 PM, eighteen minutes until the gathering, Quril got up and quickly ran to his car, the Parliament hall was atleast fifteen minutes away, he would have to be just on time.<br>
<br>
He opened his car door and spoke into the steering wheel as quickly as possible. "Hey Zyntha, how long will it take for me to get to the Parliament hall?" After a moment of the car starting a female voice spoke to him.<br>
<br>
"About ten minutes if you were to take the express way, six or seven if you went right now and took the tollway." Zyntha spoke in a secretary-like voice, with an Irish tinge to it. Comforting.<br>
<br>
"Doing it now." Quril drove out of his driveway as quickly as possible, making sure not to skip any stop signs, then merged onto the tollway towards the downtown part of Concilii Civitatem.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center">☆  ☆  ☆<br>​</div>As Quril pulled into the parking lot of the Parliament hall he was greeted by a security checkpoint, letting him through automatically, and a large crowd of reporters from which he automatically pulled into a parking spot and tried to walk away from as quickly as possible, he didn't want to be caught in a crowd right now, he'd be the laughing stock of politics if he showed up late to such an important vote.<br>
<br>
Checking his watch he noticed that he had five minutes spare and quickly speed walked to his seat towards the front of the Jury.<br>
<br>
"Ahem..." The room fell quiet instantly as the Parliament representative spoke. "The vote is now in session. The topic is whether or not to establish contact with our Venusian neighbors. All choices are final, any complaint filed will be ignored and the vote must not have specifications. The Jury will stay on topic or face ejection. The Jury will introduce their party and reason for their opinion, thank you."<br>
<br>
"Thank you representative Eisen." A blonde woman with thin lips and rather serious looking eyes got up four seats away from Quril, he recognized her as the Economists and Merchants Union spokesman, "I am the spokesman for the EMU, and as it has been for the past ten years, the EMU believes that it would be very profitable, trade could be opened up, we could buy much needed resources, and we could have a longstanding ally to protect us."<br>
<br>
After the next two representatives who were highly against communication, (And rather vocal about it.), came Quril.<br>
<br>
"Uh... I represent the Democratic Federation of Mercury, and we call for the communication of the UCSM with the Venusians. We feel that the UCSM cannot survive without the interference of another nation, we are running out of gunpowder to fight far off terrorist organisations, our firemen cannot save the people they love because we need to buy fuel for firetrucks, we are having trouble finding porcelain for sparkplugs for our own cars, and we can only get so many materials for car batteries for our own transportation, and how will Mercury survive without our strives in terraforming, we cannot self sustain ourselves this way." He was surprised in himself, he had not even practiced any lines before. Quril mentally gave himself a pat on the back knowing that he had to have made some sway. "Mercury begs of you to make contact. We need this. It's the only way to survive." Quril sat back down, he'd even worked himself up, he put his head down onto his desk and realised how dramatic that must have looked, sneering at how stupid and sappy he must has sounded.<br>
<br>
After everyone had given their opinion the Parliament got up and typed their votes into a large machine in the middle of them, a projector above them turning on with a vote counter, one for, one abstain, one for, one abstain, and after five minutes of waiting and praying the last vote had finally come in at 39 - 21, the UCSM was going to contact Venus, hopefully bringing years of prosperity and mutual aid. Quril was amazed, the fact that anyone was even voting for this was a one in a lifetime accomplishment. He smiled, looking down at the rest of the jury, multiple angry faces mixed with a few relieved ones here and there, this was a hallmark in Mercurian history. His children's children would teach their kids about this part of history, if Mercury survived that long while being stranded out in interplanetary politics.<br>
<br>
The spokesman of the EMU shook his hand out of nowwhere and he mumbled an ensnared: "Thank you, well done." While thinking about what this could do. After about twenty minutes of formalities Quril drove home, and went to bed, he was going to have many different things to do by the time it was morning, and it was going to be an extremely busy day for him.<br>
<br>

"Navigation, we are authorized, cruise towards Venus and fire an unarmed probe, equip it with a voice recorder and record a friendly greeting, weapons will not be authorized unless fired upon, no matter what."<br>
<br>
Henefur was terrified of anything that could happen here, sitting on the chair within his cabin. He took his hand off of the intercom.<br>
<br>
"This better go well." He took a sip of his coffee and walked out onto the bridge, a hopeful looking guard smiling at him.<br>
<br>
"Are you ready Captain?" He looked at a Communications Officer to his left, "Is the message ready?"<br>
<br>
"Yes, sir." Henefur was stuck contemplating this, but he knew his job.<br>
<br>
"Make contact." He automatically noticed the two and a half meter long probe drifting towards Venus.<br>
<br>
"What does the probe say?" Henefur hoped it wasn't corny.<br>
<br>
"Hello, this is Captain Henefur Monagen of the UCM Hessen, Mercury is making contact at this point to ask that our leaders contact eachother, we do not wish to attack, but would love to know more about your society." The young woman smiled at him afterwards, trying to push him into getting ready.<br>
<br>
"Okay. Sounds good, let's go home."<br>
<br>
"Yes sir, spooling engines." He heard the familiar blare of the engines and hoped he had a quiet warm bed waiting for him when he got back to base.<br>

</b>​</div>The two guild men were tall, swarthy gentlemen in modern-cut suits in the popular Curatorium style one in a burgundy coat with an upswinging double-breast, khaki slacks, and a charcoal grey fedora. The other wore a long sport coat with a grey waistcoat and tie, matching slacks, and a black fedora. Each carried a metal briefcase handcuffed to their left wrist. Inside were manufacturing schematics both for the weapons they wanted manufactured and the machines that would be needed to mass produce them. <br>
<br>
"Interesting place," one mused as he took in the planet's sights and sounds. "Now where is our contact?" <br>
<br>
"Relax, Thomas. He's running a tad late is all." Replied the other in a lilted, Indi accent. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Bridge of the <i>Chalcedon<br>
</i></b>​</div>Yeron was led under armed guard down a hallway and up an elevator. While walking past, he would have noted the numerous freight containers, and the omnipresent symbol of a three-masted sailing ship superimposed over a set of trade scales. It was evident that the <i>Chalcedon </i>was indeed a freighter and not a warship. After a short walk, they arrived at the bridge. Yeron beheld a large room with two raised platforms to the left and right with computer monitors and in the center a control pit with several more consoles and a large starmap on a holotable. At the far end of the room was what looked to be a large window but was actually a holoscreen displaying the space outside the ship, as the bridge was located deep in the ship's interior.<br>
<br>
He was brought before the captain, a tall and lanky older man with white hair and mustache that wore a red utility jumpsuit with a long black leather coat adorned with epaulets. His nameplate designated him: Captain Otto Vinver.<br>
<br>
"What is the meaning of this unprovoked attack on a vessel of the Curatorium?" The Captain demanded of him sternly. <br>

The Chosen who had taken the reins of speaking with vermin listened carefully as the creatures spoke, of course they would not believe anything that he said, they did not know the power of the almighty Overlord for they had yet to be eradicated. While it spoke he looked the soldiers up and down, they were definitely more organized that most of the simulations but he was more than confident that they were simply canon fodder. When the creature finished speaking he had to snap himself out of a trance.<br>
<br>
"And you are right to be wary of strangers giving claim to intergalactic war, I understand that most species are held within the tight grasps of their own galaxy. As for the hard evidence you seek, it will be presented to you when an enemy comes forth threatening the life of this galaxy's inhabitants." The man paused as he looked back at the statue of the Overlord then looked back at the hologram,"He tells us that centuries ago he came to us and offered our people a place at his side for the battles to come, we took the offer and left this galaxy for some time. While none of us that were originally born here still live, it is our ancient home." once more the man paused as he pointed to himself and to the people in front of him. "I can see that the Overlord was telling the truth when he said that we would be different after so many years apart, but nonetheless you are our blood. Now that its been explained as best as I can do so, can you tell me about the recent history? Have there been any mass disappearances in colonies or outposts, are their any hostile forces to be feared..... What's the state of our race in whole?" <br>

Yeron had been smiling the entire time as he walked through the ship, it was true that the standards for a vermin's ship were far under the basic standard for his people's ships. When Yeron came into the large room he looked around like a child in a playground, so much to look at. While Yeron noted that the creatures used some sort of hierarchy, obviously throwing anarchy and barbarism out the window. When the white haired man spoke Yeron snapped to attention, staring at the man like a beast seeing injured prey. <br>

"Unprovoked attack? What attack actually are you talking about? I know for a fact that I did not initiate hostilities, maybe you should take that up with who ever gave the order to open fire on neutral forces. Then again.... I do believe that there may have been an error in our communication's translators.... still, when you see a ship that is not responding to communications and seemingly dead in space, you board it for survivors. I honestly expected dead bodies." <br>

"So.... they have more ships.... that makes things interesting. Open the hangars at once, we have three Chosen onboard, yes?" the captain looked over and questioned a woman manning a console,"Yes sir, what orders do they have?" The captain smiled before typing at his wrist console, issuing direct commands.<br>
<br>
With out a reply to the unknown ships another boarding ship left the hangar as it opened. This time the boarding ship was going at an obviously reduced speed, slowly approaching the leading ship. As the boarding ship would come into visual distance five different shimmering shapes would come into existence, after a second of glistening the shapes turned out to be wing craft of a strange design. As the wing craft tightened a trianglular formation around the boarding vessel a message was sent to the ship it approached. "Preparing for landing, please lower any shields you might have and open your hangar." The message had been a robotic voice over, for translation purposes. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b>Endless Perplexity, Solar Administrative Division of Therek</b><br>
Endless Perplexity was a gigantic space station where every component possible was alive. Air filters, buildings, even transportation were all living beings made from advanced engineering. Igulan hated it. A bunch of nature goddess assbackwards hippies. Fortunately, he didn't have to spend long here: he was only waiting for the greatest ship in the Solar Forces to arrive: the Silver Lining. As he looked out the window, he saw it: a behemoth almost the size of the station itself. Armed with literally thousands of weapons, the inside was as large or larger than a city, every aspect tuned perfectly to bring ruin to all its foes.<br>
<br>
It was also basically the only major flagship controlled by the Solar Forces.<br>
<br>
Now, that wasn't to say there weren't other deadly and massive ships fighting for the Institute. The Queen of Snakes, the Goldjack, the Cortez, and the Axe of God all were forces to be reckoned with. However, they were all members of mercenary fleets and not actually controlled by the Institute itself. These mercenaries had been loyal for centuries, and it was Igulan's job to keep them in line. He needed to bring the Silver Lining to Salvador Dali and unite the mercenary fleets. Councillor-Admiral Ajax was going above the authority of the rest of the council, stating that the escalation with the Femians was getting to a state of emergency and that something had to be done. The Solar Forces had prevailed and so the military and all  its followers were gathering around the holy planet of Salvador Dali. Igulan only hoped that Ajax wasn't too late in forcing action.<br>

<b>Solar Forces Special Administration Colony, Coordinates: [REDACTED]</b><br>
The creature twisted around to look at Ajax. It gurgled something out of its mouth, totally incomprehensible, but the translator did its job. "What... what am I? Where is this? Who am I?" Ajax smiled ever so slightly. "That will be clear in a moment." A device extended from the ceiling and stabbed into the creature's head. It let out a bloodcurdling scream and collapsed to the ground, the device not letting go. This went on for a few seconds until the device retracted. For almost half a minute the creature layed on the ground until it finally got up. It was more stable, and there was something colder to it. It did not speak, but the translator began talking anyways. "What is my objective, Councillor Ajax?" Ajax's tiny smile grew into a full grin. "Kill them all." A door in the back of the creature's chamber opened to reveal several Femians chained up and screaming. The elephant-sized monster advanced towards them and followed his orders.<br>
<br>
<b>Meeting with Sedna</b><br>
The ambassador sighed, also rather dissappointed. "Very well. We will not require any cut in trade with the Hierarchy. However, we'd like everything ordered to be delivered in as timely a manner as possible. Sol may be in danger. Mars and Venus are united against this threat to everything that our ancient system stands for. We hope that when the time comes, your people will be with us and preserve Sol."<br>

"They ain't chasin' us, damnit" said 'captain Jazz' of the Longbeard as the burning wreck of the Valari appeared in the system. They nearly made it with their full number but one was critically hit just as it was jumping out, took it a couple more seconds to jump and, just as it did the Femians wrecked it. "Alright, orders is orders. We need to get into a small scuffle with some Sednian vessels and allow them to capture us. No one here wants to kill anyone so lets just ensure that we don't. Brass will be upset with events as they are, lets not elevate that." Just as he finished saying that the Sednian fleet jumped in to meet them. "Alright. Theres a colony down there, they don't know whats going on but lets make this believable. SHOW TIME!" Just as he said it a communique asking them to surrender sounded over their comms systems and in response his two ships open fired. The firefight was breif and the Longbeard was nearly scuppered by the time they actually surrendered. One of the soldiers remarked "I don't like all this deliberate losing" under his breath as they were brought in. They might have been able to take on a good portion of the hunter fleet provided they were actually trying. It wasn't exactly a fleet designed to take on highly trained covert troops. <br>
<br>
<i>Later<br>

On the bridge of Kryton, Krytiou's ship, "The fish didn't bite Chief. I think Cheif Jowls is going to remain dark in the system and see if he can pick up any information as to what is happening and report back once he can get out. Thats what I would do at any rate." The young Ingstrom was annoyed but he understood, plans like this were chaotic and couldn't be expected to proceed as planned. "Alright. We have organised your transport back to Sol, fairly usual prison ship. Your going to be operating in Sol, possibly taking a tactical position with the Institute. Looks like they are actually going to make good on their deal to buy soldiers." <br>

<b>Meeting with Institute</b><br>
"Alright. I am going to lay down the deal right now. We supplement 10% of your forces, you pay us the normal fee, we retain neutrality. You want us on your side in a Galactic war I am going to need more then a deal to buy Mercenaries and weapons. If we are, and as a historically neutral nation I cannot promise anything, but if we are to side with you we are going to want access to some of your tech and we would need to see it begin arriving before any such war. Its clear, not just to us but to most of the galaxy, that you and the Hierarchy want a war. A war like that, with the deals we have, may result in us needing to invest in a victor. But an investment like that requires big returns, I hope you understand." <a href="/members/fishman-lord.13266/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="13266" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId140">

"Looks like they are done with their problems, back to normal operation. We need to get these mining facilities up to peak A.S.A.P. Is that understood? Once we are being as productive as possible here and have the majority of the 'cultural colonies' set up to claim the system then I want us to start digging our claws into the less valuable surrounding systems. We are going to need them all to sate the Hierarchy's deal. That said, start collecting the first shipment, the rest of what we can spare of our other stockpiles will arrive soon and once we suppliment it we can assure the Femians that we intend to pay out." Said Haines as the entire system lit up with activity again now that the big wigs had completed their intrigue. "LETS GET THIS DONE TO SCHEDULE PEOPLE." he screamed over the system wide intercom. These people were being paid fairly well, they had to be to encourage them to leave the ease of life on Sedna, sure it was monotonous, but so was their new job, only this time they had the risk shut down and, if that happened, docked pay.

<br>
The invasion had begun. Years of preparation and over-militarization and months of endless planning and replanning had all led up to this. A clear provocation and act of aggression on the Solar Institute's part, a largescale mobilization of naval forces to their sacred colony of Salvador Dali, the closest Institute world to Femian space had alerted the Board of Naval Superiors and with a swift signature from the Caesar herself, the grand forces of the Femian Naval Corps had been deployed at once. Not until now had any noteable Femian display of strength been shown to the rest of Civilized Space and for many foreigners from all spectrums of Humanity and animal scum this would be the first time they had ever encountered a Femian ship any larger than a corvette or freighter or more likely one at all. The 10th Fleet was to lead the initial charge into Institute space, with the 8th and 9th fleets in close pursuit. One might have wondered why the more superior fleets of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd hadn't been sent first but they were to be kept in reserve if the dogs proved too much of a nuissance for the first three fleets to handle, which most of the Femian admirality doubted sincerely given their subpar military capabilities. Of the three fleets that had been deployed, they each boasted a numerous number of ship types, with the most impressive of course being their assortment of Dreadnoughts and Super Battledestroyers which both dwarved even the most impressive of ships in sheer scale and firepower, though the Dreadnought model was considerably smaller in size when compared to the Super Battledestroyer, it boasted nearly an equal amount of firepower when one included its Siege Cannons which were designed to suppress entire planets if need be and had been given the nickname 'Fleet Killers' though whether or not that was translatable into reality was yet to be proven.<br>
<br>
"Admiral, ma'am, Grand Admiral Kren is requesting a communication link." A young officer said to her superior, the older woman nodding a single time to indicate her response without words. Moments later a holographic projection of Kren appearing on the deck of the Super Battledestroyer FSV Battlehammer. "Admiral Yali, how goes your invasion?" She asks though in a greatly impatient tone, it wasn't clearly evident to the untrained ear but any high-ranking Femian naval officer could hear it. "We haven't encountered any resistance as of yet, Grand Admiral and our ships are quickly approaching their sacred world. Though Naval Intelligence has picked up large Institute signatures elsewhere in the system, they're attempting to mask their presence but we'll find them." Kren nodded, folding her arms and looking out over the bridge as other naval personnel worked quicker than they usually would, they had to given the circumstances. One of the perks of Femian communications being the ability to see the surroundings of the person one was talking to. "I would congratulate you, Admiral but until their fleets are drifting lifelessly through their own territory I do not deem this invasion worthy of my praise. Now to the reason for my request to speak with you, as much as I would prefer to just wipe their pitiful little planet out of existence, my peers on the Board have instead chosen to occupy the planet given its immense religious and cultural value to the people of the Institute, if you can call them that. We shall hold it hostage and demand that their fleets stand down, if they decline then that gives us the excuse we desire to escalate our approach to the war. You have been put in-charge of this spearhead for a reason, Admiral Yuli, do not fail us." And with that the holographic figure of the Grand Admiral disappeared and Yuli let out a tense breath that she hadn't been aware she was holding until now.<br>
<br>
"Vervitor on deck!" An unknown voice calls out, all of the not immediately occupied bridge crew members standing to attention as a black-robed and masked figure made their way down the main slice of elevated deck between the two submerged data pits where communications and surveillance crew worked constantly. Some of them only stopping momentarily to look up at this rare sight in the Femian armed forces, a Vervitor. One of many mysterious servants to the Caesar, an order of unquestioningly loyal and highly-trained agents that were dispatched to oversee military operations when need be or to conduct their own more covert missions. Regardless, this Vervitor in-particular's stride alone was enough to intimidate all of the bridge, Admiral Yuli included who was well aware that Vervitors had the authority to do whatever they pleased regardless of the rank of anyone else around them with the sole exceptions being members of any of the military branches Board of Superiors and the Caesar. "Admiral." The masked figure spoke, her natural voice hidden away with a deep vocoder. Yuli stood at attention with her hands behind her back. "Yes, Vervitor?" She questioned curiously. "The sacred world is within range, your women have targeted the orbital shielding systems and defense platforms." Yuli nodded, turning around to face the data pits. "Open fire on all orbital defenses!" A gathering of yes ma'ams being her response as not even a minute later the numerous Dreadnoughts of each fleet fired their goliath-sized siege cannons, destroying the orbital defenses of the planet that were currently facing the fleet's direction, huge balls of burning bright light flaming through the vaccum of space before hitting their targets. "Admiral, position your fleets in defensive formation around the world. General Vaar, prepare your troops for a surface attack." The Vervitor turned and said to a Ground Corps officer who now stood a short distance away, having arrived moments prior. The Veritor turning around and taking off in the direction she had come in as the General turned to face Admiral Yuli. "Admiral." The two nodded politely as Vaar departed also.<br>
<br>
Down in the deeper reaches of the Battlehammer however, the General's order had already come through and a massive invasion force was being prepared. A similar sight of mobilization and preparation taking place on many of the other ships of the three fleets as transports picked up countless hundreds of thousands of ground troopers and navy troopers alike alongside their heavy-duty ground equipment. Whilst their space and air cover/superiority would be handed out both by the fleets in orbit themself and the fighter, attacker and bomber squadrons they had hiding within their hangar bays. With no orbital defenses to resist their initial push towards the planet, the first bulk of the invasion force arrived on the ground with light resistance, establishing beach heads all across the planet, most noteably on the outskirts of major population centers where they would then push inwards, with the plan being to surround them and force them into surrendering via siege tactics, if any cities refused to surrender then orbital bombardment would be the next solution, the Board of Ground Superiors much preferring the civilian collateral damage of destroying an Institute city as compared to risking dozens of Femian lives when it was unnecessary. With the three fleets in orbit any additional support would now be provided by them and all along CentRoute a supply line had been established by dozens of other fleets to ensure a steady flow of reinforcements and supplies if needbe though the already present Femian forces were more than equipped for a war of attrition, not that they expected to be having one. On the ground Femian forces advanced steadily, their superior numbers, equipment and readiness prevailing in conventional warfare though the Terror Corps back in Femian space had been ordered on high alert in the event that unconventional warfare was required though even the Femian admirality was iffy on that order given the sheer brutality of those within the psychopathic little sister of the main branches of military.<br>

"I'm afraid you don't have much of a choice. My orders were to acquire the females aboard this vessel, I am not to return without them. A fellow soldier and patriot like yourself surely must understand the impossibility of one returning from a mission as a failure. I can most assure you that the Hierarchy does not deal in horsetrading people either and we have no reason nor desire to cause any harm to these individuals, in-fact quite the opposite."<br>
<br>
The expression on the Caeptus' face was one of contemplation, serious contemplation. Keeping her hands in an ordered fashion behind her, she looked around the ship and bobbed her head up and down once, the thoughtful look on her face holding up without fault. "If you did that you and all of your men would die, I too would most likely die before aid could be given but my troopers are protected from such dangers, at least for some period of time depending on the severity. So essentially you would be failing your mission, killing yourself and all of your men in exchange for what.. My death and to deny vital advancements to the field of genetics?"<br>
<br>
Anger, that was amusing. Not to imply that Femians didn't feel emotions--but in the Caeptus' own opinion her people were far less likely to let it intrude on their professional business, and by that she essentially meant that Femians were better at hiding their emotions which proved little advantage in most cases but gave them a more.. Formal air around them. Though admittedly Handor was feeling her own blood rise in temperature as the baseline continued with his decadent ranting. The ranting that was to be expected from a religious nutjob. "We have not polluted anything, we are better than you. Our people are cleaner, purer, we do not suffer from the same genetic defects as your own corrupted and imperfect cavemen that you call countrymen. We have improved on your God's design because his design was a failure. And you should allow it because I suspect your superiors would have your head for destroying relations with another galactic power over your own pride and ego, I want to speak to your superior. To someone more... Levelheaded." There was a slight smugness in her tone when she said that last part, a clear insult wrapped in a diplomatic dressing.<br>

<br>
The Captain withheld a sigh into herself, knowing that further visible skeptism would no doubt sour relations between their two nations, something that although of little value to herself personally she suspected would be of great value to her superiors. Despite the differing levels of isolationism that the Hierarchy practiced over the course of its history, it did not actively seek to worsen its relationship with the baseline sections of Humanity, knowing that it would be of no use for anyone. So Fayte held back any further negative comments and simply nodded, albeit reluctantly. "Fine." Was her only reply to the topic of requiring hard evidence, their conversation thankfully moving onwards after that.<br>
<br>
Fayte had been at least somewhat listening to the man's continued story of the fables of his people and their beloved Overlord when she had been interrupted by a voice 'off-screen' of her holographic projection to the Femians and unknown man alike on board the dreadnought, it was a communications specialist informing her that the invasion of the Institute had begun and that first contact between Femian ground troops and Institute planetary defenders had occured. Finally, they would put those animals in their place and repay them for the humiliation her people had suffered at the inception of their existence. The failure of their coup de tat centuries ago. "Yes, it would seem we <i>are </i>both of Human descent. And no I cannot say there have been any mass disappearances, not in our territory at least otherwise we would have addressed the issue." She paused momentarily. "As for hostile forces.. There is one--not to be feared, at least not by my people but a hostile force indeed. One that represents a threat to our collective species, they go by the name of the Solar Institute and meddle in changing themselves and uplifting animals to Human like intelligences. They have provoked my people into a war we cannot ignore, very recently in-fact. As for our species, we have expanded far and wide and divided into many differing nations."<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b>Stapledon Cluster, Sol</b><br>
The council convened in their chambers, all in a dark mood. "Ajax, you fucking moron, we all knew this would happen!" Shouted Akiki. Ajax shook his head. "It would have happened either way. At least with my order we're actually prepared for it." Tagisor, always the voice of reason, stood up slowly. "It no longer matters. It has happened. We must make an announcement to our people. The only one of us who can break this news is Ojahn." The deer's translator let out a sigh. "Tagisor is correct. We are at war. I will make the address if I must." The council quickly agreed and made their way to the Mind of Bvalltu, equipped with one of the most powerful transmitters in the galaxy, able to reach the entirety of known space instantly.<br>
<br>
Ojahn faced the recorder, took a breath, and began to speak. The studio translated it into thousands of languages as it went out live. "People of the Institute, Children of Mind. The Council of Five of the Solar Institute has dreaded this moment since the day the militarist coup of a century ago failed and its architects fled across space to form what they called the 'Hierarchy'. For decades, we have tried to teach them the way, show them the beauty of Mind and the potential of the power they misused. Today, they showed us that they could not learn. The Femian race is sick, bred to kill and to be ruthless. We must cure them and show them all that is in the universe. We must respond to hatred with serenity. If the Femian Hierarchy will retreat from the holy world of Salvador Dali and pay reparations for all innocents slaughtered, there can be peace. If the sickness in their minds prevails, and they continue this folly..." Ojahn paused before speaking. "There will not be war. There will be obliteration of any trace of the Hierarchy from the universe, so that a wiser and kinder successor can guide the Femian people into the world they deserve and the darkness bred into them by their overlords can be removed." Ojahn finished with the motto of the Institiute in the Holy Tongue. "Darnekodum. Agracelsum. Ascensium."<br>

<b>Meeting with Sedna</b><br>
Something came through the ambassador's earpiece. She remained calm on the outside, but on the inside she was screaming. "Well, the time for those negotiations seems to be now. The Femian Hierarchy has attacked in an unprovoked act of aggression. We have little time to lose, so here's our offer. We can offer our uplifting tech and the templates to two viruses known as 'Zachary' and 'Madman'. If you agree to the deal, the basic uplift tech for advanced creatures will be provided instantly. As soon as you commit actual troops and ships, the rest will be delivered." <br>

<b>The Oort Cloud near Salvador Dali</b><br>
The majority of the fleet of the Solar Forces had been gathered in the system. They were awaiting further orders, to see if the Femians would stand down or if war had truly began. If it really was time for conflict, all that remained to do was to wait for the ships purchased from Sedna to arrive and for potential reinforcement from Venus, who had been called into the war. If Sedna chose to fully commit itself to the war, the fleet would wait for their ships as well. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b>Luyten IV, Luyten System</b><br>
The first shipment to the Femians had been sent by the time the war broke out. It had already jumped into Femian space. Sure they could wait and see if it returned before committing to anything but the deal they were being offered was good so the order 'Silent' was sent to Luyten IV. Based on its proximity to Femian space and its role to steathily set up operations to support the Femian trade deal it was to be scaled down to a more manageable level and also run silently so as to not risk any unforseen attention. Mining would continue but all windows were shut, all sources of light that could been seen shut off and all large heat-signatures deactivated in the hopes that they will be ignored by passing vessels. As this was happening the fleet that was out 'hunting' pirates leapt back toward Sol to regroup. Their orders were currently 'Defend Sol' and they would carry that out. <a href="/members/ripsaidcone.14333/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="14333" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId165">

Sedna Prime, Sedna, Sol</b><br>
"We have to step carefully gentlemen. Two of the largest nations in the galaxy look to be at war and we are right in the middle of it. We must step carefully and look to defend our own assets. You have been briefed on the Ingstrom Plan and I expect you to ensure it is successful. This is war. I am sure both sides will dance around each other for a few hours, perhaps even a few days, but it is clear, at-least I hope it is, to all here that War is inevitable. We are to take the path of least cost and greatest profit. With the return of the Institutes deal we have sent off the 'Private' Security Forces they paid for to join their fleet. For now we are going to keep the rest of our fleet in reserve in case this is a diversion. The Institute seem willing to put their entire fleet into the battle and so someone must look after our Assets and ensure the system is kept safe. With that said, once battle has commenced, and I have informed the Institute of this, and no attack is made on Sol we will quickly jump the remainder of our spare forces, those not engaged in defending vital trade, to reinforce the battle. The Ingstrom Plan is currently on track and we can look at playing with this new Uplift technology we have been given. I am sure the Muds will find some profit in its usage. Only those willing to follow my plan and allow me to co-ordinate our forces will be given the technology freely, let that incetivise you to win a war!" Was the end of the speach given by Trade Master Ingstrom after he had agreed to the Institutes deal and sent off the required troops to support and take up roughly 10% of the Institutes fleet.<br>
<br>
<b>Oort Cloud, Salvador Dali</b><br>
"Alright, here we are. We will respect the Institute chain of command, I am Regional Chief Jowls, I have been tasked with overseeing the Mercs you requested and ensuring seamless integration. Tell me where you want us and who each group will report to. Once this is undertaken and our troops integrated with yours I will offer my services as a tactician and strategist." At this point he stifles a laugh "I can't tell you how many successful missions I have had profiting off your mistakes. However we are on the same side now so lets keep this professional. My job is to win a war so point me in the right direction." <a href="/members/fishman-lord.13266/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="13266" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId167">

"Attention!" The Templar all stood straight up with their heads held high, the admiral walked over to the front of the large unit. "This is a previously unknown civillization we are coming into contact with! i trust you all to act with digression and caution. Any sign of trouble and you shoot." Turning around just in time to see the unknown ship fly through the atmospheric shielding and landing onto the hanger floor he waited for their first move.<br>

There was a period of an awkward stare between the two before she looked over to her fellow knights. "i think we're done here?"

(Guys, let's tie this plot up here, kay?)<br>
<br>
<b>The Agamemnon<br>
</b>​</div>Captain Fischer screwed up his face. He balled up his fists as if to strike the Femian officer, but paused. Perhaps it was the chivalry and the resemblance of the officer to a woman he knew, perhaps it was just better judgement. But as he lowered his fists, a private came up behind him. <br>
<br>
"Navicularis, an urgent communique."<br>
<br>
"Not now, soldier."<br>
<br>
"No, sir. From the High Curator himself."<br>
<br>
There was a round of looks from all the soldiers about him. Was the situation so important as to attract the attention of the High Curator himself? He turned and looked towards the Femian officer. "Here's your chance to talk to my superior." Was all he said in a cold, harsh tone.<br>
<br>
The soldier threw a small object on the floor and a holographic message popped up. It was a very lifelike image that blanketed the hole of a small, round area around the object and had a very odd, unnatural feel to it. The image was very lifelike and existed in three dimensions. In the center sat a middle aged man in a brown tweed suit, green waistcoat, and a red tie with a gold pattern on the front. He had a kindly, wisened face with a handlebar mustache and a well-trimmed beard. He sat in a classically-designed, stiff-backed armchair holding a cup of tea on a saucer. Behind him was an open set of french doors which led out to a balcony. Outside in the blue sky was the towering spires of the Cathedral of Light in Canticle, and in the air the gold and silver ornithopters flew past with a buzzing that sounded much like bumblebees in a garden. Away off to the left was a desk with an old fashioned oil lamp and to the right was a lit fireplace. The old man stood, holding the tea saucer and swishing a bit of the liquid around in it to cool. He turned promptly to Fischer and then glanced in the Femians' direction with the calm and calculated air of the wise king Solomon. He turned to Fischer first. <br>
<br>
"Navicularis, you have served your nation admirably, yet when I was informed of your handling of the situation I grew immediately concerned."<br>
<br>
"Yes, your grace." Fischer crossed his right arm over his heart and rested it on his shoulder, bowing at the waist ever so slightly as he spoke. "We came to recover these Earth people, but these Femians have ambushed us and demanded that we turn the female passengers into their custody."<br>
<br>
The High Curator threw a wary glance at the Femian officer, knowing for what purpose this had been done. "And so," he came back to Fischer, "you decided to bluff, I see." He tutted and poured the tea back from the saucer and into the cup. "An admirable strategy, but a failed one. I admire your tenacity, Mr. Fischer but you are no negotiator." He smiled a bit. "We can't all have every in great supply. I commend you for your duty, Navicularis." He turned back to the Femian. "If I may propose a solution; surely some of these passengers are married to one another, this being the right and natural state of things, especially for a colony ship such as the <i>Agamemnon</i>." He looked up, seemingly admiring the rafters and tech of the ship. "Therefore I propose my men take you to the ship's computer, we locate the female passengers who are not married, and they may be turned over into your custody. Is this a fair agreement?"<br>
<br>
"But sir," Fischer began to opine.<br>
<br>
"My captain, your spirit is most appreciated, but the issue is done and settled. I have done all I can do. Human lives are more valuable than history." The Curator turned back to the officer. "Well, is it a deal?"<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b>Militarium Solaris High Command, Rosso, Philemon<br>
</b>​</div>"Signs of Femian military aggression towards the Institute are confirmed. We have an entire Heirarchy armada coming down on them." Shouted out a yeoman on the switchboards.<br>
<br>
"How many ships?"<br>
<br>
"At least a hundred. Dreadnoughts, cruisers, siege capitals. Everything. It's a full-scale assault." The yeoman yanked a printed radar report sheet out of the machine and handed it to his superior, Praefectus Rold Lorrison, as he walked past on his way to the main server bank for the hyperlight observatories. He read over the radar reports and confirmed it with the optical data they had back. A large Femian fleet had been assembled, likely for the purposes of waging war on the Institute.<br>
<br>
"We must contact the High Curator."<br>
<br>
"I will get him on the phone. In the meantime, ready the navy for defensive protocol 4 and would someone please get me a bloody bottle of gin!"<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>The HMS London<br>
</b>​</div>The <i>HMS London</i> was the oldest and most storied battleship in the Curatorium's fleet. It lay in port above Philemon taking on food and fuel when the raise in defensive protocol came across her bow and reached the instrumentation cluster. Ensign Emily Boggs was sitting cross-legged on the observation deck with her boots off eating a corned beef sandwich. When the ship was on the move, they would lower the blast doors over the windows, but right now she could see the beauty and majesty of the planet below. <br>
<br>
"Oi, Em." Came a voice from behind her. She turned and it was her friend Benjamin in engineering fatigues carrying a toolbox. "What are you doing?"<br>
<br>
"Eating my lunch." She muttered through a mouthfull. <br>
<br>
"Blimey, don't you know that there's a war on and high command is itching to drag us in it?"<br>
<br>
She swallowed hard. "What?"<br>
<br>
"Yeah, bleeding lesbians are gonna overrun the 'Verse. We're to report to stations, Captain's orders!"<br>
<br>
She frowned and put her lunch away. "I'll be with you, Ben. Don't wait up." She said, struggling into her boots and slipping her engineering coveralls back over her arms, joining the flow of engineers down into the engine levels.</div>

"Why of course, your highness. Please sit and we'll have a droid deliver it to you shortly." The doors to a rather secluded room open wide revealing a wall of couches and a floor covered in cushions both large and small. Though such a room wasn't designed for ambassadors it was designed as a recreation room and one of comfort. The need for an embassy or official meeting room seemed unnecessary to the original founders of the facility and thus Variscite never obtained such facilities.<br>
Waiting for the princess and her compatriots to be seated, Veneria picks up where she left off with them. When the princess had first entered the planet's atmosphere she expected her to be more talkative than she was. If not for the sake of small talk for the sake of diplomacy and understanding. Be it from awe, confusion, disdain or habit that the princess had been rendered relatively mute she couldn't say. Though she didn't wish to risk disdain being the cause. Once they'd grown comfortable one of the less intimidating droid models enters the room carrying a tray in front of it with three cups, a bowl of sugar cubes, and a tea pot.<br>
<br>
The droid makes a beeline for the centre of the room where there appeared to be a glass table. The table appeared to be made out of a thick glass with the bottom exposing the surface beneath them and its many smaller plants. Upon closer inspection it would seem that the table itself was nothing more than a sealed off glass cylinder and that the world below them was exactly that. Veneria begins to talk once more, confirming the comfort of her guests.<br>
"How do you like your tea, princess. Is it satisfactory?" A small brown lizard crawls its way along the bottom of the glass table on the outside of the facility looking up at the room of people with its four green eyes, blinking out of sync from one another. "If it's not too great a hassle, your highness, I wish to know the intentions of why you came. I believe establishing a diplomatic foothold within our foundling is a likely answer but I doubt it to be the case as you could just have easily requested a diplomatic passage of establishment through the institute's avenues. It would have saved you the trouble of arriving to our planet and sacred system with so little protection. Non?"<br>

Bursting through a ring of bright energy the Venerian fleet drifts into the scene. A total of twelve battleships, their Blue Raven, and countless fighters prepared to engage at a moments notice. It was clear from the moment they arrived they hadn't planned on taking the distant cannons approach but instead would prefer an intimate dog fight between woman and machine. Minerva would personally oversee this confrontation as if there was any chance they could capture or even salvage a femian ship it would prove instrumental in their understanding of ship AI and future AI based attacks on the ship systems. The Venerian foundling still had ships at its disposal but they were located elsewhere either to keep peace on foreign worlds, support the FUS in their civil war, or to protect holy Terra in case of a deeper assault.<br>
Minerva was quick to contact the Institute commander in charge of this conflict. The Venerian foundling had no experience with the femians and any form of military knowledge regarding them came directly from the Institute itself. The archon wasn't prepared to lose these ships out of foolishness but losing them for the greater good of Sol and humanity was a different story entirely. "Attention commander of the Solar institute forces, this is the Venerian Archon Minerva reporting in. Our forces are at your disposal and our guns tracked and ready. In the name of our union and holy Terra, we await your orders. Don't make us regret our contributions."</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">The very fabric of time and space was warped and contorted, as dozens upon dozens of naval ships soon appeared within the proximity of Institute territory. Their distinct architecture swiftly gave away their identity. They were ships of Purview origin, no doubt. With word of the Femian Hierarchy actually launching an assault spreading across the galaxy like a wildfire, Central Command saw no better opportunity to reclaim the home system of humanity than now. Aligning themselves with a force equal in power would only heighten their chances. Besides, their mutual resent of the Institute would surely bolster a temporary alliance between them.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">Leading the attacking assembly of vessels was the Grimshaw herself: the personal ship of Captain Matthew Lodge. The marvel of naval engineering was a typical carrier by appearance, but its years of service have surely seasoned the crew into skilled individuals, ready to carry out their mission on behalf of the greater good for their countrymen. Accompanying the Grimshaw was a diverse cast of alternating warships. Destroyers, frigates, assault carriers, and the odd battleship that stood out and presented itself now and then. Hopefully a large enough force to take on the forces of the Institute and its potential allies. The Captain was confident that he could win over the Femians this day, and that their combined might would surely wipe out the Uplifted and their ilk that dared pollute the surface of Mars.</span><br>

<span style="font-size: 26px"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><b><u>P.N.V. Borrowsworth</u></b><br>
<b><u><span style="font-size: 22px">Private William York, 22nd Air Assault Division</span></u></b></span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">York had just finished emptying his personal locker of what he deemed valuable for the mission. Operation: Homebound, as the higher-ups deemed it. York thought it fitting. It was practically the first time in Purview history since citizens of such a fine nation returned to the home system that saw the development of their species. An honour only a few would experience this day.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">Once done, the rifleman regrouped with the rest of his unit. He kept his helmet close to his waist and pressed against his armour. The exoskeleton fused to their suits lightened the burden of carrying such vast amounts of equipment, and thus York could dive into battle without the fear of a survival pack weighing him down like a paper weight against freshly filed reports. The private travelled alongside his fellow soldiers until they arrived in the main staging area for their attack. An assortment of tanks, AFVs, MWPs, aircraft, and other personnel were scattered throughout the open space. The sight was something to truly be proud of. A parade of the technical might of the Purview, assembled in a single room.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'">The unit of men took up position within the vast metallic cavern, patiently awaiting for the go-ahead from those high up in the chain of command. The soldiers were already excited to see combat. To see a world that their ancestors wished to walk upon.</span>​</div></div>

Scout Shuttle 5537<br>
<br>
"Agent Rolf to alpha fleet, we have warped into Sol and have initiated cloak sequence. As of now we have pinged a handful of large population centers including SOL 4, 1, and for some reason we've pinged a population center outside Sol, we're testing for errors as we speak. Another ping has come from SOL 2 but we believe it to be an error, not enough life too much metal." The agent relayed while going over a few lines of data being given to him. "Deploying warp probes to all four locations with possibility of mass population centers in 3...2...1. Warp probes away."<br>
<br>
Four probes were ejected from the ship and after a single second they disappeared and reappeared five hundred thousand kilometers away from their designated warp points: Sedna, Mars, Mercury, and Venus. After appearing near these planetary bodies a message began relay in a loop of english. "Hello interstellar peoples of Sector: SOL(&lt;--- Insert robot voice), it has come to our attention that we have not met. Please transmit cultural data to this drone so that the respective protocols can made for first contact. Long live peace!" The voice came along with the picture of a flower. <br>
<br>
The agent looked over the probes and watched as they took hundreds of photos of each planet and relayed it back to the ship. The probes were meant for scouting possibly habitable planets but they worked perfectly for establishing whether or not a certain planet was a threat. The agent was taken back when he saw that SOL 2 was apparently a literal planetary factory, a disgusting use for what could have been a prosperous world. He then moved to SOL 1, it seemed to be well taken care of and moderately militarized, not a huge threat but not an ant either. Moving on the agent found himself staring at the picture of Sol 0, the object with a population OUTSIDE of Sol. Sol 0 was expertly industrialized and had a few unnatural satellites, of what purpose they served he did not know, yet. With a smile and a quick complimentary note he flipped to the last probe scan.<br>
<br>
"INFIDEL DEFILERS! Console, transmit all data directly to the Citadel of Heroes, I am making a formal request that the Overlord himself sees this immediately!" The agent had grown angry as he looked over the feed. Thousands of animals made to be near human level intelligence and walking with humans in society? All creatures not based off of Marintothian design were declared to be vermin, but making your own sentient beasts?  The codex of forbidden sciences declared it to be the highest level of heresy making a non-human, that is not sanctioned by the Overlord, equal and not putting them into their place of servitude.<br>

The Chosen speaking to the hologram slowly began to frown as the hologram explained the situation. Looking at his wrist console he saw that there had been a full recall to Marintoth VIA direct command from the Overlord, but he swiped it away and looked back at the hologram. "Uplifting simple animals is one of the highest crimes that can be committed, while the Overlord has given special permission to certain species who were on the verge of higher thinking, this is simply...... Our ship will have to leave now, but the Overlord will hear of this. If there is anyway we can contact you for further diplomatic actions, please present it now." The man speaking had been sweating profusely, attempting to keep his cool in the wake of such actions by this <i>Solar Institute. </i>With out a pause the doors to the Honor Room opened and the dozens of Chosen that had escorted the creatures inside marched into the same escorting positions as before. The Chosens' faces could be seen under their helmets but the towering figures were tearing at their insides to resist the urge drilled into their minds to gun down the vermin, they had heard the whole conversation. <br>

Yeron looked at his wrist console as an alert came up in a flashing and beeping. While those around him could  see it, it was in his language so reading it from a glance was nigh impossible. The alert was a complete recall of all ships and personnel, directly from the Overlord. Yeron looked at the captain with a confused look and shook his hand and said,"What you've done can be forgiven, the Overlord is merciful, but I need to leave.... now." <br>

"Stay relaxed, do not fire unless fired upon." An unseen man said aloud into the darkness. With a few clicks and pops a spec of light appeared where there had once been darkness. As the landing platform slowly dropped to the ground more light showered the inside of the dark boarding craft. Once the platform hit the ground with a loud <b>cling </b>a single figure stepped out of the ship. He was a tall, medium weight, middle aged man wearing a military uniform with a small flag of the Dark Star Empire pinned to his chest along with several other unknown ribbons. His eyes were a dull red that didn't blaze like some of his fellow clones but he it was still very apparent from his stature and eyes that he was not a normal human. <br>
<br>
A few seconds after the man emerged from the craft two more figures appeared behind him, this time the figures had to duck under the door frame of the ship because they were too tall. The figures were heavily armored and seemed more like walking tanks than men. Their weapons were the size of their huge arms and were obviously made to be mounted on a stand rather than be carried like an assault rifle. While their faces couldn't be seen their helmet's eye holes gave off a bright and distinct red glow, each figure scanned a different direction as they stepped behind the officer. After the two large figures left the craft the platform raised back up into its frame.<br>
<br>
The man that had stepped out of the craft first greeted those in front of him with a wave. After waving at the crowd he whispered into his wrist console then put his hand out as if to offer a hand shake,"Hello, I am Major Terald, I do not speak your language so this [UNKNOWN DESCRIPTIVE WORD] translator will have to suffice. Our small scouting fleet must leave, there is an emergency but I have been given special permission to stay."  <br>

Close to Mercury, The UCM Cantabria<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px">Captain Quen Likoe</span><br>
_________________________________________<br>​</div>"Captain! Transmission from afar!"<br>
<br>
Quen moved away from the NavBoard to look towards his Communications Officer,<br>
<br>
"What is it?"<br>
<br>
The Officer gave him a clipboard with the transcript on it, Quen noticed his nametag, A. Ferreir.<br>
<br>
"Uh, cultural data... comes to our knowledge that we have not met... Hey Bixby!"<br>
<br>
"Yes, sir?" The young marine walked up to him.<br>
<br>
"We have anything for 'cultural data', books or something? A transcription of humanity?" Quen was already eager, think of the pay raise he could get for this! A new civilization speaking to him.<br>
<br>
"I'll check the onboard library, we may have a few biographies and such." Bixby immediately ran out the door towards the library.<br>
<br>
"Also, Ferreir, send a message to Civitatem that we're in contact with someone or something."<br>
<br>
"Yes, sir." Ferreir walked to his desk and started typing in a message.<br>
<br>
Quen started to pace around in glee, this was revolutionary!<br>
<br>
"Here you go sir." Bixby handed Quen a couple of books, The History of the Human Race, volume one to four.<br>
<br>
"Perfect, thank you Bixby."<br>
<br>
"Anytime, sir."<br>
<br>
Quen immediately ran to Ferreir and set the books on his table, "Send these in a probe also containing a gracious message."<br>
<br>
Ferreir nodded and walked to the Comms bay, a probe almost immediately firing towards the initial transmission.<br>
<br>
"What'd it say?" Quen was filled with anticipation.<br>
<br>
"This is Admiral Quen Likoe of the UCM Cantabria, we have received your transmission and have sent four books that should sum up our culture. Thank you."<br>
<br>
Quen jogged to the windows and watched into space, waiting for something, anything, to send a message.<br>
