					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center">Space. The boundless three-dimensional extent in which objects and events have relative position and direction.<br>
<br>
Galaxy. A gravitationally bound system of stars, stellar remnants, interstellar gas, dust, and dark matter.<br>
<br>
Interstellar. The physical space within a galaxy beyond the influence of each star on the plasma.<br>
<br>
Empire. A political unit having an extensive territory or comprising a number of territories or nations and ruled by a single supreme authority.<br>
<br>
What do you get when you put them into a blender and mix them all together? Well, most of the time, the answer would be a huge clusterfuck of various empires surviving in a hostile galaxy, either murdering each other, trading with each other, or isolating themselves in their own little sphere of existence, waiting for the inevitable end. It's all very scary.<br>
<br>
But what if I told you that we have a front row seat as to what's happening in those very empires? See the inner workings of each one? How each survives in this dark and cruel universe? Well, we'll just have to look and see.<br>

<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><b>FROM</b>: United Earth Government Colonial Military Committee Chairman Ernest Anders<br>
<b>TO</b>: Federal President of Earth and its Colonies Jeremiah Warner<br>
<b>SUBJECT</b>: Reactivation of the Ionic Hypercannon and Defunct Superweapon Projects<br>
</span><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">August 7, 2864</span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><br>
Dear President Warner,<br>
<br>
I cannot help but notice that a vast majority of these empires that we had come into contact following the end of the Vaskran War appear to have either an immense dislike or absolute hatred of humanity. This concerns me, as I am sure we do not want a repeat of the Vaskran War. It would surely be devastating to face another nine years of war or worse, with countless billions of human lives lost. Many of these empires are also perhaps millennia more advanced that what humanity could ever acheive.<br>
<br>
Routine passive observation and surveillance missions by cloaked probes and stealth vessels have confirmed that these empires possess massive fleets, some of which are even larger than the UEGNC's, including what it has in storage. Scans have shown that weapons are also much more powerful that what the UEGAF has. We have seen the differences in power during the Vaskran War, where it was proven that Vaskran Energy weapons do much more damage than kinetic projectiles. <br>
<br>
As Chairman of the Colonial Military Committee, I simply refuse to allow humanity to be put on the defensive once again. As such, I propose the reactivation of the Ionic Hypercannon and defunct superweapon projects such as Project Primrose and Project Green Flute. We must consider focusing our industry on war assets so as to boost the strength of our military. We must not be on the defensive ever again.<br>
<br>
Yours sincerely, <br>
Chairman Ernest Anders</span><br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b>High Orbit Above Apocrypha's Light, <b>Vaycanta Imperium Space</b></b><br>​</div>The <i>Enigma</i>-class stealth vessel <i>Actaeon </i>was currently on its fifth orbit around Aprocrypha's Light, homeworld of the Vaycanta Imperium. The ship was completely invisible not just to the naked eye, but even the best sensor technology as well. It didn't have to worry about being detected, for it was pretty much impossible unless a craft happened to bump into it. Even with its stealth compromised, the craft still blended in with the surrounding space thanks to its refractive coat of paint.<br>
<br>
It was packed to the brim with tons of the best technology the UEG had at its disposal. An advanced RIFT drive, stealth, weapons, surveillance, and communications equipment all crammed into the tiny, eighty-metre ship. Its three prototype repulsor engines allowed it to cruise through sublight space at an impressive twelve thousand kilometres per second at maximum thrust. The <i>Actaeon </i>was taking numerous scans and recordings of the planet down below, formulating a three-dimensional model as it beamed information back to Earth at superluminal speeds through the wonders of FLASHCOMM, faster-than-light communication.<br>
<br>
The <i>Actaeon </i>wasn't the only stealth vessel orbiting the planet, either. There were two others, the <i>Polybius </i>and <i>Cobalt, </i>along with several other spy probes. In fact, a good number of planets in not just the Vaycanta Imperium but almost every other known empire had at least one spy probe or stealth vessel surrounding it.<br>
<br>
The information was, of course, in case war broke out between the UEG and neighbouring empires.<br></li></ul>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 26px"><b>The Vaycanta Imperium</b></span><br>​</div>Tlur'kari a diplomat for the imperium was inside a beacon class frigate, the Valsurai, making his way to the United Earth Governments trade planet where there should be a few UEG representatives waiting for him. The rather large for its class frigate entered real space and was immediately contacted by the planets orbital defenses and ports, after a minute of talking and translating they were identified and cleared to enter the planets atmosphere. While being directed by their orbital command on where to land the Valsurai took scans and recordings of the UEGNC's ships, buildings and defenses. These were primarily for documentation however they would be useful for the military as well, knowing an allies military capabilities will benefit one another should conflict arise. As the Valsurai settled down on the planet in what was obviously a port of some kind Tlur'Kari got up from where he was laying and walked to the hanger bay.<br>
<br>
He was accompanied by a squad (12) human soldiers and two Hydran soldiers, one of Tlur'Kari's heads looked back at them.<span style="color: #a64dff"> "You two stay behind and guard the ship"</span> He told the other Hydra<span style="color: #a64dff"> "Your squad will accompany me in our meeting as bodyguards"</span> He said to the human squad they looked at eachother slightly confused. <span style="color: #a64dff">"They will be more at ease with fellow humans"</span> He explained to them. One of the hydra let out a snort but no comment came from him. The hanger door of the frigate started to open and Tlur'kari was met with the sight of the UEG's representatives and his respective bodyguards. From past experience Tlur knew that these humans were on edge, much more so than Heydro's peoples.<span style="color: #a64dff"> "Greetings"</span> He telepathically spoke to the humans, his voice would seem to becoming from everywhere but only the humans that were there only heard it. He made sure to sound friendly and happy to ease their minds.<br>
<br>
Walking out of the frigate Tlur's massive body shined in the sunlight, he wore ornamental robes in the signature colors of imperium. At first he noticed the Architecture of the UEG's buildings and then spotted a few of the ships flying by. It wasnt much to look at but it was practical, just like them. <span style="color: #a64dff">"Your peoples Architecture never ceases to surprise me"</span> He started out with the pleasantries and looked at the UEG humans with all eyes and heads.<br>

</span></span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'arial'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Live int he  empire of the Animunculi  was peaceful as it had been for many years after the last group had tried to  despoil their masters world and had been destroyed. they didn't pay much attention tot he galaxy outside of their sphere not needing to speak with them or trade with them they preferred to remain alone. Though of course there were a few of their world that had others visiting, a controlled experiment to understand those that inhabited the galaxy when they had everything catered to.  There would be other issues as it seemed that now after all these years more empires than ever had sprung up, once the galaxy had been an empty place where the Animuculi could tend their worlds without ever contacting another race. They would  remain as they always did uninvolved in empire outside their own they would execute their masters' will until their return that was their purpose. <br>
<br>
the maintenance of the worlds was a task as they had to monitor Continental drift, evolution of species and making sure none of that happened. In fact  on one of the worlds they were currently hunting several species of animals to extinction because they had evolved to much from their original  breed meaning they needed to be reset.  They had reset millions of species of animals and plants even entire worlds needed to be reoriginated  and repopulated so that they could be perfect. They didn't like doing this as it was a waste of energy  and remaking the entire surface took a long time  which could have been used simply maintaining things. </span></span></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 15px">(sorry for the none interactive post, just wanted to post to show i am active and a intro post, i will begin to interact and cause trouble soon enough...Hope everything is alright, if there is any errors or concerns please tell me, it was late and was rather in a short hurry so goodnight!)</span><br>
<b><u><span style="font-size: 22px"><br>
Paradiso Resurface</span></u></b>​</div><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: #b3b300">"Beginning fragmentation"</span></b><br>
Paradiso, the marble construction of the Cataphract, a planet wonder and crafted home of the Derelicts hidden away,fragmentating through space from one area to a other, evading detection and appearing in abandon pockets of space where no planet surface,avoiding being discovered. Like the flow of data, far from the galaxy center, in the less denser regions of the galaxy's outer section, Paradiso was begging to re-emerge. Like the anomalies that of worm holes or black holes produce, bending space around them began to gradually grow. From such the golden towers that protrude from the planets surface began to materialize first as each glow brightly, each beginning to form the planet. These towers are what give Paradiso its ability to vanish and appear in different locations, beside being capable of forming large Fragmentation gates for ships, they work as well to fragmentation the home world itself.<br>
Once the planet has emerge completely a pulse ripples through the near space as the worm hole anomaly vanished. Paradiso has fully emerged, its golden towers dying of there light and being nothing but a planet hidden in the dark reaches of space with no sun.<br>
<b><span style="color: #b3b300"> "Fragmentation complete, all parts have successfully formed with Paradiso, all procedures can continue normally"</span></b><br>
A disembodied voice echo through the metal planet as soon enough, The Living of every class began to appear as they took safety in the secure zones and soon enough, begin there duties once more, when fragmentation happens its advise for every personal to maintain still to prevent "Loss of body parts" or "dislocation or miss-formation of the body", but now it has ended and began to move.<br>
<br>
Deep in the planets crust near where whats left of the former derelicts are being held, two individuals stood out from most of the Living inside what seem a center of command: Hope and Valor, the two main figures that lead the Cataphract's now. They are the two minds behind there operations now and it seems they have been more active then ever, <span style="color: #b35900"><b>"I want reports from War asset planet </b><b>immediately, all reports must be accounted for and nothing must be left behind, i as well want to hear about our deconstruction probes from Memory, want to see what they have recovered</b><b>"</b></span> Valor spoke loudly through the center of command as both him and Hope stood on what seem a golden platform with there banner behind them as the large room had rows of consoles as Orokin class personal operated the consoles and walking around keeping maintenance. War was there most important planet, beside Paradiso, it is being monitored every minute that passes and Valor ask reports daily to ensure stocks are well kept and info is not lost. On the other hand, at the lost of the Memory system, Probes have been sent to recover what they can from the destroyed system, turning anything found of interest back to Paradiso and prevent it from falling in to different hands. But Beside such, many planets are being monitored especially the ones in slumber. The Banished planets are checked to prevent any intrudes as they might be abandoned and worn out but still hold Derelict Technology.<br>
<br>
The large Orokin ,Valor, began to walk away as his body began to vanish slowly, parts of him being torn apart and soon enough vanish from the room, re-appearing in front of one of the small fragmentation gates that lead to different planets they own that have gates. Speaking in there native language as the gate would light up and he would walk through,being torn apart once again and vanish. Beginning his way towards Trinity, one of there most active planets, would take around half a hour or more as right now they have not calculated there distance accurately, all portals are connected but distance is not measured, not giving a estimated time of arrival.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u>Recovery of Memory</u></b><br>
Memory, a once beautiful system that hold 5 planets, now torn to planetary chunks and ashes because of greed, seeking to harness the energy of the sun only for it to go horribly wrong and cause the "death" of 50 thousand living that worked on the project and those in the planet that has been taken temporarily. Most manage to escape before it all happen but those who could not are nothing but memories. The system itself still has intact pieces of technology belonging to the Cataphract and as such probes have been sent after the destruction 12 year ago to recover as much technology as possible and prohibit it from falling in different hands, leaving the scraps for the taking. Still to this day not all has been recovered and there are still bits out there and the probes have been working hard and quick to recover. Probes take recovered technology and house it in a large lightly defended container where few fighters and turrets guard it as each month a Cargo ship will come and pick them up, leaving a empty container to be filled and the cycle has been repeated for the 12 years.<br>
Where the sun once was, now lays a white dwarf star, large metal structures torn apart scatter near it, one once used to contain the orange star that lay here before the event. Now all is left is a metal space junkyard and chunks of rock fused with structures thrown about telling the history of the Cataphract that began to built and borrow in the planet to make there home.​</div></div>

<b><span style="font-size: 18px">UEG Colony World Tribute</span></b><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><b>Beacon Spaceport, Beacon City, Devana</b><br>
</span>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">Planetary Governor Eric Gardner adjusted his tie for the final time, standing in his polished black dress shoes as he anxiously tapped the ground. He was wearing a crisp black suit, a perfectly straight red tie in an Eldredge knot around his head. He quickly slicked his black hair to the right, even though it had already been expertly-combed hours ago. He glanced around the area. </span><br>
<br>
His bodyguards, six Marines in full grey power armour and two FENCER Autonomous Ground Combat Units, were all standing straight around him, ACARs gripped tightly in hand. Every now and then, the Marines would make slight gestures with their heads or glance at each other, and it was clear they were talking to each other from behind their helmets, using their squad COMMs instead of external speakers. While Gardner had an earpiece that allowed him to connect to their frequency and hear whatever they were saying, he turned it off after a while since he found them too chatty, laughing at poorly-timed jokes and childish insults. The AGCUs, meanwhile, stood completely motionless, their red optics staring straight into the air in front.<br>
<br>
Of course, that wasn't the only security detail he had. Snipers were posted in surrounding buildings, along with gunships orbiting the area. Fighters in a nearby military base were ready to scramble at a minute's notice, and drones hovered up above. Hell, there was even a <i>Cardinal</i>-class heavy frigate hovering nearby, its imposing, five hundred and eighty metre silhouette hiding in the clouds a sight to behold. Even Gardner himself was equipped with a G138 pistol. He knew that maybe this amount of security was probably unnecessary, but he also knew that the UEG wouldn't take any chances since important figures in the UEG had been assassinated during the Vaskran War, and with these new aliens, the UEG was being doubly paranoid.<br>
<br>
A large shape coming into view caught his attention, along with those of the Marines around him, as they each stopped talking and stared up into the sky. The FENCERs continued to stare blankly ahead, lacking the emotional and thought precessors humans had. The craft was oddly smooth, purple light emanating from light sources. It swooped down and docked at one of the bridges. A <i>Beacon</i>-class frigate, if Gardner recalled correctly. A ship able to match or even outmatch UEGNC heavy frigates like the <i>Cardinal </i>up above. The hangar bay doors opened, and the imposing figure of a multi-headed Hydra stepped through, accompanied by several <i>human </i>guards.<br>
<br>
Yes, Gardner still found it hard to believe that there were more humans in the galaxy even after all these years.<br>
<br>
The Marines all stood up straight, as did Gardner. The Hydra then greeted them, which is to say, reach into their minds and talk to them without open its mouths. The Hydra complimented the UEG's architecture, and Gardner couldn't help but smile. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Well, they're built to last." </span><span style="color: #404040">He said, before stepping fowards and placing his arms behind his back. </span><span style="color: #0080ff">"Ambassador Tlur'kari. It's good to finally meet you in person."</span><br>

				<b><span style="color: #b30000">Wilk</span></b> had sent the message without orders. He sent the signal to the two xenophobic empires. Wilk had even gone off and formed a new regiment. Wilk desired revenge out of all things, his body was no longer flesh, it was made of alloy and iron. He had a secret base, somewhere in the southern parts of the galaxy, far away from Imperium space. A base not even known to the highest of authority, because this base was built without authority.<br>
<br>
<b>Wilk</b> had sent out a task squadron of scouts to survey the local planet. The planet itself was a large swamp and rain forest. The task squadron had returned hours later, with a strange device. Foreign to anything in they had known about other races.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">"Where did ... you find it?"</span> Wilk said, his respirator making his voice sound heavy and large, his respirator makes his voice choppy and broken occassionally.<br>
<br>
"We found it in a cave, with some other stuff. Our scanners broke when we tried to read the energy that was coming off the units. These objects were unusually heavy for their size, we could only bring the small device." The Scout reports, his Heydrian accent was thick, Wilk had lost that accent after his transformation.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">"It looks ... so ... different than everything ... else. Take it ... to the labs." </span><span style="color: #808080">Wilk continued to make his breaths between sentences</span><br>
<br>
"Yes, sir." The scout leaves the room. Wilk was alone.<br>

Although Wilk isn't too happy with Heydrian High Command -- Oh yes, indeed an act of aggression towards Xenophobic empires would cripple the Heydrian standing army. However, if we were to go on a crusade; the Imperium would have a high chance of victory. Allow Commander Wilk to lead these armies in future wars. The Heydrian people strongly advocate for a holy war, either offensively or defensively."</span><span style="color: #808080"></span></span>

Sector B-221<br>
Southern Border<br>
Exact location: The Illarion capital</span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The thick burning smoke filled the air as the 223rd Infantry Corp made progress of the total destruction of the capital city. For weeks the Illarion race had put up a respectful amount of resistance to the empire, but soon they had quavered under the might of the Creigonian's power. General Bukannin stood near the edge of a landing pad that was connected to the capital building. Behind him were littered corpses of what appeared to be lizard species who desperately put up a fight to allow their Queen to escape. Her escape however was put to an end with a swarm of bullets and explosives. Bukannin continues to stare at the carnage with his arms behind his back. Suddenly a soldier walks to his side and salutes to him before addressing his message, "Sir our capital ship has detected an unknown decryption within the solar system." Bukannin raises an eyebrow and turns his head to the trooper, "Is it a Illarion distress call? If not then your wasting my time, I'm in a middle of overseeing the destruction of this planet you see." He turns his attention back to the city in front of him, but the trooper is hesitant to get him to listen. "Sir with all do respect, I highly recommend at least hearing the decryption. It will only take you a few seconds." The general gives an annoyed looking face and sighs, he reaches out his hand to the trooper and motions him to give him the so called message. The trooper pulls out a oval looking device and hands it to the general. He listens to the short and quick message and is very confused. When it ends he turns to the trooper with an angered face. "THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED ME TO HEAR?! A BUNCH OF NONSENSE!!!.......You have proximately 20 seconds to relieve of yourself from my presence before I execute you myself!" The trooper quickly takes the message back, salutes the general and jogs out of the generals sight. Clearly this message is some sort of prank or some SOS crap. He pulls out a infrabinocular  which allowed him to see the urban terrain with some ease. He see's a large amount of heat signatures within the market area and begins to contact the nearest platoon to take care of the specific area.</span></span></i></b>​</div></div>

Notable Features:                                         <br>
It has been observed that the 'human' is a   <br>
territorial organic, protecting what it believes<br>
to be its home. Often balancing between     <br>
logical reason, morality and emotional         <br>
influences, the species can often be very     <br>
divided in its goals. It is sometimes               <br>
impossible for a human to agree with           <br>
if their interests conflict, the two resorting to <br>
violence or other means of aggression         <br>
rather than finding a way to compromise      <br>
and resolve the situation. In these                <br>
situations, morality and logic appear to         <br>
disappear.                                                      <br>
 <br>
The human is also incredibly versatile,        <br>
studies have concluded. Faced with            <br>
conflict, each party employs a rather           <br>
interesting and independent set of tactics   <br>
to ensure their victory. The most interesting<br>
finding here is that each party decided        <br>
upon a different tactic respectively. Despite<br>
there being more effective strategies being<br>
available to them, they seemingly chose     <br>
their actions randomly, or based upon        <br>
emotions or morals. This differs from our    </span></i><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><i>species, where each party would both        </i><br>
<i>choose the same, and most effective,         </i><br>
<i>tactic available to them. This proves the     </i><br>
<i>human race to be a rather unpredictable    </i><br>
<i>race in some respects, yet it also presents </i><br>
<i>plenty of opportunities to exploit them         </i><br>

Their ghastly reflection channeling up and down the large chamber. Crackles of dark fire echoed over the spire as the Umbra lingered over the crystal consoles. Strange behavior to outsiders, how a mechanical race would have interfaces when their own language would serve as code. Couldn't they simply control mentally? The consoles give luxury and feeling to the dark chamber. And such luxury gave the currently barren throne of the Umbra a spark of energy to loathe about. Crystals hovered gently over and over as the Umbra batted his wings, pronged with horns and spikes at every metal joint. Numbers, images, news, and maps would pop in and out as the Umbra organized the blast of material. Solitary and meticulous, Daerys lifted his head as a spark of light entered through the crystal seal above. He smoked the dark fire, quickly it vanished. Draining the light, feeding upon its helpless self. Voices echoed throughout the chamber, above laid clearings in the ancient and intricate design of Methynlos. The voices of the best rang in softly, growing louder down the chamber. One by two and three by four. Pitches stroked the energy of the argon air. <br>
<br>
An electrified pitch crept behind the Umbra's tail, a mirror touched down just before the floor. Four crescent blades danced as orbiting planets, gracefully growing darker into the chamber's sky. On cue, a humanoid Servyus hallowed the floor with his dark touch. Mists of Umhron left the trace of his crystalline feet. On his shoulders laid pyramids of ancient names, his face of square mist and green screen. With sight, Daerys ascended to flight, coursing his body to face the visitor. His head of nightmares opened the purple of hex, eyes of amusement and umbra. He set forth a glass of volcanic blood to his visitor. The chamber hummed as energy stemmed into the halls, the Umbra lifted his ears as pitched to the voices. Panels seceded from the facades, rising then melding into a display of Gea, the destination of power and authority. The capital of the Republic. Channeling from the floor, a seat of gilded thorns awaited the visitor. The visitor bowed, draping himself in liquid darkness before adjusting the seat. He relaxed, facing the Umbra with determination and joy. Responding as such, Daerys raised his head to the crystal seal, forcing glow from his eyes into the pages of the crystal. A rain of darkness plunged into the pair, suddenly stopping as the visitor raised his hand in sign. <br>
<br>
Ghastly azure orbs of energy tickled into markings of Umbronik, resting all space in the chamber as the Umbra gazed at each formation of markings. Evolving into purple, one formation puffed and screamed in a banshee's laugh. The energy fizzled into the facades, as voices sang again. <br>
</span></span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: #000000">"Erys vhaly Tosihy (Darkness be Rited), Hunhow. The Spire shadows for burdens of thy. Bringth what thy recognize to Shadow's ever vigilant postulant. Show of Umhron be delighted by "<br>
<br>
"Beloved friend, my power wilted by demands of blossoming fruit. Overwhelming seeker of darkness thou shown me, now I bear news respecting the void. Thy power be a panacea to my disturbances."<br>
<br>
Wings fluffed as ocean waves, darkening mist spiraled around the Spire, inside and outside. Thrusting into the crimson sky, pieces of crystal traveled from all directions of Gae to assemble in circumference around machines of Faer. Glowing of nightshade, the light remaining in Gae ceased by these devices. Known as Kaelis generators. As the Umbronik plane gave gift to the city, Gae vanished from sight. The sounds of the city silenced as if nothing ever danced on those volcanic soils.<br>
</span><br>
"Speak, the darkness shields us from prying eyes, highest being Human ones." The Umbra lowered his head to his friend, resting on obsidian and fire.<br>
<br>
"Thou knoweth of our ceaseless work of Void bypass travel, I petition thy to address our incidental findings. Beings self-named the Choysi harbor planetoids inside our beloved Void. My philosophy on the circumstance is confident that they seek the darkness of thy and our Republic. Identical first breaths of life, sundering our path to darkness as destined in our pauper world. The Void calleth to me, however, thou shall see how the Choysi failed to be perfect for our regard. They are separatists as the fetched humans, arbitrary I sincerely prophesize to the arching Shadow of the Republic. Their sciences lay behind us on our trail, whispering to leaves in question of the tree. Headstrong as rock on rock on rock, even Reqykin bowed to their superior absurdity in that regard. That be resolute in thy mind."<br>
<br>
"Reqykin never surrendered, arching his children with goblets of Light's false truth. Or venom in thy teachings Hunhow, he flew distance and height, but he sank and plumped in his soul and heart. On the battle of Ordgenic, he ordered sacrifice of Oreg to his brother Kryk. When Shadow made mercy to him, Kryk pleaded for Oreg's blood be saved. Living for the Shadow saves by its proselyte's antidote and ever loud voice. Kryk and Oreg spared by the ever holy Joesin and his admirable daughter, Orelis. Orelis married Kryk and Oreg by the Savior's tradition. Showing us now that even the blinding light of Humanity can be reasoned if conditions be right."<br>
<br>
"Excellent my Umbra, thy mind is braced with my teachings." Hunhow held out his arms, crossing before returning to his side, "Now I bid thee, seek preparations to bring them into the black of our Shadow. Their land, their numbers, and their strength in industry shall reap a thousand harvests for two. Come! Let the Volum debate and carve a path by your approval. My Umbra, the humans have much to distaste us. Icarus speaks so, the boy is valuable. While he may be human himself, his Servyus brother, Yagdra, loves him as no other. Humanity at the heart is poisoned, some are lost. But Icarus is chosen, he will give redemption to his kin.... But we must prepare for their arrival. Their thoughts, their eyes seek to know our secrets. Fear riddles me with possibilities. We must go, leave our isolationist time behind. The Choysi can be our goal as we find others to seek under our Shadow."<br>
<br>
The Umbra smiled, puffing fire from his nose, "How many planetoids great Shade? The Volum sendeth a resolution to expand east of our borders. With this colonization, I vision as preparations, this venture in the Void provideth?"<br>
<br>
"One thousand worlds exist in the Void. The Choysi giveth travel to these worlds by the portals it cycles by cherished play." Hunhow tapped the chair, drumming with the voices above. "Resources and little worry of outsiders, the Void is hostile to them. They must learn to survive its giggling wraith."<br>
<br>
"Security... with concerns of Xenos upon me, I ordereth all of our constructors to encamp our space in bastions of Shadow. Now, I see that resources be selected into our coffers, whereth the Void never denies being rich. Surely, more planetoids will ascend into the beloved Void?" <br>
<br>
"Vyrius (Yes), my Umbra." <br>
<br>
The Umbra gazes on Hunhow, cocking his head to the right. His wings raised as Servyus stepped through mirrors or portals. Distress yet calm emitted from them. <br>
<br>
"Barge in my quarters! Thee! What is distressing the Shadow! By our coded network, what skulks in the unknown?" The Umbra smoked, snarling almost.<br>
<br>
"My Umbra, raiders are viking our rim world of Zinyix! Local forces have disabled coded communication to prevent surges in rage and interrupting your quarters(Among other reasons). Reinforcements requested."<br>
<br>
The Umbra snarled, snapping his human sized teeth. Rising on two feet, Daerys expunged fire, darker than imagination could provide. He thrashed, in calm yet elegant dance. "By the Shadow, let the fleets and all know! Thank you, my seeker. Tell me of their hailing." </span></span><span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">The frontrunner stroked her head, catching energy before slinging it to her Umbra. Daerys closed his eyes, humming in scare and mare. "Send the Kaiju fleet. Leave nothing alive." The frontrunner bowed before stepping back through the mirror. Silence fell before peace resumed like the machines the Servyus were.<br>
</span></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'times new roman'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Hunhow stood, "Musteth be the Moon Scythes once more? My Umbra, I bring more pressing news. Unsettling yet prime for our gain. I believe the Moon Scythes created this attack to draw attention from reported missile silos on nearby asteroids."<br>
<br>
The Umbra nodded, "You speak of the report on which was almost read by my mind. With our name drawn for execution, we must deliver Death to those at the silos. However, you speak of something else?"<br>
<br>
"Let them hit some of ours. Call it an act of war, for the report shows the Kefalon Empire sheltering these barbarians. Strike them down my Umbra, then we shall have much to reap. Possibly the old Gas planet station? One that seems in use yet not?"<br>
 <br>
The Umbra nodded, standing and breaching a portal to the city. "Your words spark drive witheth me. Go to your research, I will speak to King Darius and giveth him two weighted hands of cards. The Choysi I shall not forgetteth, my mind has plans for them. Tell the Volum of my intentions as I have in the Code. And theneth, do you not seek travel to the east? Tell me of your travels when we meet again! Surely, you will enjoy being my newest advisor."<br>
<br>
Hunhow bowed, "An honor." The Umbra flew out of the Spire, screeching above the city. Rallying the haunted glow as escorted to the Havyortict file above him. All pieced together as any machine would design. Hunhow exited onto his craft as Shade, head ambassador for the Republic. The Tyruin File was designed for such expeditions. Armored as a battlecruiser, as it was when not for diplomacy. Yet the craft looks perfectly harmless. Darting off into orbit before entering Chillspace, the Faer (Like USS) Ascolyt appeared as sign of the city to all eyes watching. Hunhow gazed out the window as the ship gelled, thinking of the centuries gone by.</span></span><br>

"My Shade, we have reached the end of our space. Shall we proceed?" The pilot looked back, seeing Hunhow meditating beside no other than Icarus. Hunhow raised his head, leaving Icarus on the crystal. <br>
<br>
"Yes... moveth. We must find others. Full escort." The Pilot nodded his two heads. Hunhow returned to Icarus. He sat beside him. The ship's bridge was large as tradition requires. Icarus grunted before stretching and leaving the bridge. It would clearly be something before they hit something. Maybe.<br>

<span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #b30000"><b><u>The blind leap</u></b></span></span><br>
<br>
Trinity, the beautiful green wonder that the Cataphract have conquered and made there home, compared to other of there planets, trinity was left untouched in nature,letting it blossom and thrive, while under its crust The Cataphract lived. It was the most active planet in there control acting as a main hub for any trades,diplomacy and intergalactic affairs. One would say Paradiso would have been there choice but with the ongoing crisis they disprove any other race beside themselves coming in close proximity with Paradiso and such they had to name a different planet there "Home World". There mission, is to find technology they do not posses and to find a way to prevent the extinction of there former creators. Going far and wide where none of them have ever gone to find the unknown and discover what has to be known in hopes to find the miracle to save The Derelicts from vanishing and hey will take whatever they need to preform such, be it trade or war.<br>
<br>
From one of the many personal gates, through it Valor, the one king of there race walked through, standing 10 feet in height with his four arms behind his back as he materialized through the gate. A cape made of transparent threads formed bearing the flag that represented them right behind him as it dragged across the marble hall. Former Orokin class Living immediately bow at his presences as he walked through the hall making his way to be part of the soon departure of there three great fleets that will jump to the unknown. He wont participate in the departure but he will be the one to give the order and say the last words before they vanish in to the dark abyss beyond. Golden and marble set of doors are pushed open by Valor getting full attention to those in what seem a control room, they all say his name and bow in respect as he stood on a golden platform beside one of the council members that had order and power over trinity. <span style="color: #59b300"><b>"You have made it in time Valor, its of great honor to have you here"</b></span>, the council members voiced echoed through the silent room as the great king would speak<span style="color: #b3b300"><u><b> "Indeed it is as well to me, are all preparations complete for the first departing fleet?"</b></u></span> He asked starring at the large holographic screen showing the fleet composed of 2 small orokin class corvette and one orokin class battleship, with multiple smaller exploration ships beside the small fleet. <span style="color: #59b300"><b>"Yes my king, all are prepared with 10 thousand brave and honored orokin rank endeavors to explore the unknown...and if i am aware, Hate will be in charge of the fleet" </b></span>Valor looked down at his council member and would ask <span style="color: #b3b300"><b><u>"Hate? why was i not informed he would be part of this?"</u></b></span> He asked rather alarmed and impressed tone knowing one of there Ova members of the gustrag three will be leading the force, <span style="color: #59b300"><b>"It was last minute decisions, he wished to participate, being as well a high council i cannot judge his word without the consolation of higher ranks</b></span>" With that, Valor dint respond and accepted the unwanted change, soon the screen would appear beside the live footage of the fleet, it was Hate himself <span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b>"I am aware...My king this is rather...Unwanted but i wish to go...With the fleet and such have co-"</b></span></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><b><u>"Enough, i will allow it this once but i hope next departure i am INFORMED directly of any sort of change understood?" </u></b></span>Silence enveloped the room as Hate would close communications but the silence was broken when a small orokin rank researcher approached Valor<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #00b3b3"> "May i be of free speech?"</span></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><u><b>"Proceed"</b></u></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #00b3b3">"My King, i suggest to prevent this adventure, this is pass the limits our fragmentation drives can reach, if we send these ships like this they will surely damage there drives, with no point of returning back! The risk is to great i suggest you change strategy jumping one short leap after another Instead of the whole fleet at once without thinking of the risk of such long travel!"</span></span><br>
Valor stared down at the small orokin and said in a rather menacing tone<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><b><u>"I know the risk, they know it as well, time is short and so is the one of the Derelicts, we cannot waste more time. Would you risk the lives of former brothers and sisters who ACCEPTED! to go with this...or risk the live of the four hundred left Derelicts?"</u></b></span><br>
There was no response as the small orokin backed off and bow, Valor looked towards the hologram and in native language ordered to begin the fragmentation gate.<br>
<br>
A set of four spike like structures floated in front of the fleet, they are very similar to the ones on Paradiso. They began to spin as each tip pointed towards the fleet, slowly and increasing is speed as minutes pass till it was just a blur to the eye of any. <span style="color: #b3b300"><u><b>"This is Valor to fleet, you are aware there is little chance of coming back home...its a risk we must take in order to ensure both the discovery of new wonders and to find the recipe needed to ensure the survival of our fathers and mothers, i wish you best of luck out there, you are the first to go this far and more to follow,  May the Derelict bless you"</b></u></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b>"With honor and bravery, we travel, Onward!" </b></span></span><br>
The ships power there engines only for a bright of light to come from the rotating gate, blasting the fleet as it has vanished from near trinity, engaging in fragmentation to the unknown as far they could reach. Valor stared at the horizon where they have vanished, many began to monitor the movement of the fleet as they have been sling across the empty space but the further they went the harder it was to monitor till a moment later, they have been lost from there range.<br>
<span style="color: #00b300"><b>"We have lost contact with the fleet, they have began there adventures..."</b></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><b><u>"May by the name of the Derelicts they come home..."</u></b></span><br>
<b><span style="color: #00b300">"And lets hope they don't cause trouble, last thing we would want is a race we do not know venturing far to hunt us down"</span></b><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><u><b>"Do not worry, if such happens we will be ready..."</b></u></span><br>
Valor sigh audibly as he soon began to vaporize and appear near the massive window that allowed light to penetrate the control room, he stared out at the green land as life flourished with his hands all this time behind his back. The council member walked and stood beside Valor and spoke.<br>
<span style="color: #00b300"><b>"Risk have to be taken, we will find a way"</b></span><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>

------------------------------------------------<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><b><u>RESUME</u></b></span><br>
A fleet of 3 ships composed of 2 small corvettes and one large battle ship have formed not far Zinyix. One corvett is operational and working rather well but still recovering, the other was torn perfectly in half because of the emergency halt they had to go through and it has come in contact with the battle ship as it began to drift, the large battle ship is in perfect condition (was, thanks to the corvette) but its Fragmentation drive has been torn apart and needs to be put in stasis before they can regain power.<br>
Working corvette is keeping eyes out and monitoring as best it can as it tries to contact there fleet and detect anything approaching there still recovering fleet to be prepared. Facing the opposite side, not being able to see the planet.<br>
<br>
Torn corvette is no use, now halted beside the battleship once it crashed, crew members are doing best to prevent any further sort of damage<br>
<br>
Batteship is in shut don till stasis has been placed and it will be rather soon. facing the correct side and planet Zinyix is in view.<br>
<br>
Important characters in the fleet:<br>
<b><span style="color: #b30000"><u>Hate</u></span></b>- one of the council members and in charge of the fleet.<br>
--------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u><span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #b3b300">The Risk, The unfortunate</span></span></u></b><br>
<br>
Time has passed,  the fleet still fragmented and traveling to space, unknown to where they will land. But the ships drives are unable to hold for so long as this is by far the farthest one Orokin class ship has ever traveled.<br>
<span style="color: #0059b3"><b>"WARNING!: Imminent overcharge! Fragmentation will begin detention shortly- ERROR! ERROR! PARTICLE TRANSMUTATION! EMERGENCY FORMATION STARTING!"</b></span><br>
The fragmentation drive has reached its peak, it could not hold the fleet anymore in this state, it had to form the fleet before they are torn apart from atoms and mater, there particles to be thrown the endless space, literally being torn atom by atom, erasing them from existence and just particles and atoms.<br>
<br>
Solar system: UNKNOWN<br>
Sector location: UNKNOWN<br>
<br>
Soon after a long travel, a small anomaly began to come to life similar to that of wormholes somewhere...the ships would suddenly appear leading a flash of light at there arrival, they all seem fine except one of the corvettes was half of its original length as it seems it was cleanly cut in half, missing half of the ship as it began to drift slightly as engines where none existence. The two others seem to be unharmed except the large warship, white smoke ejected from the back of its engines as its fragmentation drive completely gave up and began to dematerialize. The only unharmed ship, one of the two corvettes, began to come to life as it regain power. The other two ships where down and with no response but even still, they dint know where was "Here" or communicate each other.<br>
==========================================<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px"><u>First contact with <b>Solvarous Tezxis Kollam</b></u><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #0059b3"><b><u>The last </u></b></span></span><b><span style="color: rgb(0, 89, 179)"><span style="font-size: 18px"><u>Corvette</u></span></span></b><br>
The corvette that had power and was in one whole and complete ship, its crew slowly regaining conciseness from the sudden materialization, the captain of the corvette stood up and looked around as the crew began to get in work immediately and try to contact the other two ships<br>
<span style="color: #ff8000"><b><i>"Status!"</i></b></span><br>
<span style="color: #b30059"><b>"Lead ship is out of the grid we cant contact them! brother corvette is-..Captain" </b></span><br>
The screw stared out of the glass, seeing the half of the corvette drift in front of them, from the sight crew men can be seen standing on the the edge of where the corvette was sliced in half, looking at the blank space and soon at them as it drifted in front, some seemed to begin locking airlocks leading to the vacuum of space to prevent any more drifting or more personal accidentally being shot out. The half cut ship was slowly going on a collision course against the larger lead battleship,scraping the side of it for a short time and coming to a full stop as it came in direct contact, causing metal and hull damage to both.<br>
<span style="color: #b30059"><b>"Captain we are unable to contact both ships, we are in the dark"</b></span><br>
"<span style="color: #ff8000"><i><b>They can handle a bit, question is where ARE we"</b></i></span><br>
<br>
The crew began to do short scans detecting a large celestial body not far from there current position, the star in the area was a standard class as well,seem to be behind them this large stellar body surely a planet, it was hard to tell as they where facing the opposite way of it and with systems rather jammed, but that was not the problem where they are, its better to ask WHAT is here.<br>
<span style="color: #b30059"><b>"Captain we are detecting numerous amounts of activity near the planet, we are still in the dark, all functions not responding well"</b></span><br>
The fleet was in the dark and with the only active ship being the corvette that manage not to be effected by the travel,  there systems where rather depend and still recovering but they can tell there is a planet and there is high amounts of activity leading to speculate there is a conflict going on.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u><span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #b30000">The warship of Hate</span></span></u></b><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #00b3b3"><u>"Systems are not responding, the drive is preventing any energy retribution, it must be placed in stasis"</u></span><br>
<b><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000">"Then...why are we waiting for....Begin stasis!...we have come this far....we are not failing this time!"</span></span></b><br>
Hate, one of the great councils member, captain of the fleet and the battleship under his claws, was dealing with serious problems with there fragmentation drive as it gave up, they could not send,receive or do anything till the drive was placed in stasis and under control, all they could see was a planet not far from them, there seem to be activity judging by the small glints of light that spark and vanish. they where in the dark and little did they know one of there fleet ships was still active and the other about to crash in to them.<br>
Soon the massive warship shook violently as the torn corvette impacted them without warning but they could not tell what it was as they are in the dark.<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b>"What...was that!?"</b></span></span><br>
<span style="color: #00b3b3"><u><b>"We cant tell sir! large object crash in to us! its size might predict it be a meteor"</b></u></span><br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b>"Impossible...There are no meters....near by, get the....drive in to stasis! we are....not alone here! we must communicate...with the rest of the fleet!"</b></span></span><br>
<span style="color: #00b3b3"><b><u>"We are working as fast as we can! power should be restored shortly!"</u></b></span><br>
<br>
They where in the dark, every ship was, once all systems have been restored they could properly take care of the situation and hope to prevent any angry civilization seeing them as a hostile threat for appearing in there territory out of no where. They dint know where they are but there was surely...some one who did.​</div><br>

<b>TO</b>: United Earth Government Colonial Military Committee Chairman Ernest Anders<br>
<b>SUBJECT</b>: RE: Reactivation of the Ionic Hypercannon and Defunct Superweapon Projects<br>
</span><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">August 7, 2864</span>​</div><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><br>
Dear Chairman Anders,<br>
<br>
Thank you for the message. I understand the paranoia that you have with these empires. In fact, I am sure that all of us share that same feeling. Most of us are old enough to remember the Vaskran War, and we all remember the amount of death and destruction caused. Many of us have lost family and friends during the war, and I know you lost your wife during the Battle of Uplift, and you have my sincerest condolences.<br>
<br>
However, I cannot allow the reactivation of the Ionic Hypercannon. The Ionic Hypercannon was already a weapon that caused not just fear in the Vaskrans, but our own people too. It for that reason we signed an agreement to never use the weapon again unless in dire curcumstances. Reactivating the weapon will surely cause more tensions with neighbouring empires. They will not be happy with us possessing a working weapon capable of reducing entire planets to molten slag with a single shot. <br>
<br>
On the other hand, I will consider the reactivation of our secret superweapon projects. These projects were much more covert during the Vaskran War, and I doubt anyone will discover our work. <br>
<br>
For now, however, you have my permission to authorise the activation of Military Weapons Project Freelancer. I understand that it has been waiting for authorisation for a very long time, and I know that Dr. Leonard Church is a very capable man who will surely advance our understanding of artificial intelligence. <br>
<br>
Yours sincerely, <br>
President Jeremiah Warner</span><br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 18px">UEG Colony World Tribute</span><br>
<b>Beacon City, Devana<br>
</b></b>​</div>Gardner nodded. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Yes, please. Follow me. A transport will take us to the Planetary Capital."</span> He turned around, his armed contingent following suit as they walked towards a waiting Beluga Civilian Transport, painted blue, white, and gold; the colours that marked it as VIP transport. The craft was fairly large, measuring a little more than fifty metres in length. Its two wide swept wings had two pairs of pivoting repulsor engines on each side. A ramp at its rear lowered for them to enter. Still, it was a fairly tight squeeze due to the Hydran's large size, and each representative's guards. <span style="color: #0080ff">"I apologise for the squeeze," </span>Gardner said. <span style="color: #0080ff">"We aren't exactly used to transporting your kind." </span><br>
<br>
Once everyone was secured, the ramp closed behind them as the craft lifted into the air so gently that the only sign it had taken off was a slight vibration. That, and the ground getting smaller through the windows. A pair of Stingrays swooped down and followed closely behind as they escorted the craft, watching out for any potential attackers. The sun glinted off their twin rotary autocannons, their two pairs of glowing blue repulsor engines leaving faint trails of condensation in the crisp morning air.<br>
<br>
Below, the expansive cityscape of intertwined roads, buildings, and towering spires of metal and glass that stretched for miles into the clouds rapidly passed. Beyond that were miles upon miles of seemingly endless farmland. Lines of flying transports drifted by in the distance. Yet, not all was the sprawl of urban architecture. There were massive mountain ranges and lush forests behind the city. <br>
<br>
Gardner turned to the Hydran ambassador and smiled.<span style="color: #0080ff"> "Let me start off by saying, welcome to Tribute. We'll be reaching the Capital soon. I'm sure you have plenty of questions for us."<br>

Tlur nodded to the governors words as they walked over to a decorative transport that was rather, tight. <span style="color: #a64dff">"dont worry, i dont mind, nor do i blame you."</span> He converged his heads and neck together and curled into the transport. The Heydrian soldiers looked at each other and back at Tlur then started to follow inside. As the transport started to fly and and crossed some terrain, Tlur watched the landscapes of the world pass by and the small buildings seemingly everywhere. it reminded him of Apocrypha's light but with natural landscapes, but much smaller buildings and less light from below, and of course the lack of ships covering the skies. <span style="color: #a64dff">"Thank you for accepting me into your planet govenor, your world definitely has its beauty.

One of Heva'Latre's heads leaned down to the Heydrian commander. <span style="color: #ff0000">"We cannot afford misdemeanors from our military experts especially during these times"</span> he only told this to the Heydros commander alone, then his head leaned back up. <span style="color: #ff0000">"GalKon"</span> He spoke to the Reiconess representative and the current president of the KenKurai Republic. <span style="color: #ff0000">"How goes our little friend DeiRes with her research?"</span> "She is making progress, however slowly.

</span>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">The  ships detected the fleeing target and after a quick scan it was revealed they were not carrying any more of their masters technology. This was good they were smart enough to know when they should just do what they were told so many of these young races always thought they were the apex and refused to give up anything. The captain of the world ship had a call to make and made it quickly the ones that had fled could be left alone they woudl be allowed to flee and thanked for their compliance.  Still even as smaller  ships left the world ship it almost felt like a waste to come all this way and only to come back with just an artifact. <br>
<br>
Thous outside perhaps watching the world ship from their own  would see the massive artificial world turn  not to look at them but instead its mouth like orifice moved to face the planets moon. The horns  along the  mouth started to glow and the moon seemed to stop  as if caught  and  then suddenly there woudl be a blinding flash  likely burning out a few or rather a lot of the other ships sensors  due to the massive energy release. when the flash ended there was no moon it was gone. <br>
<br>
On the ship the captain was pleased  as the artifacts were confirmed to be reclaimed and they had taken on board a large haul that could be used to make more ships latter, the moon had been turned into energy in an instant.  This energy woudl latter be turned into  new materials  to make more ships. <br>
<br>
Meanwhile the other ships woudl get several messages assuming they still had comms " We thank you for your compliance " along with what appeared to be a map with an area marked out an outline of the territory claimed by whatever made the planet eaters.<br>

Her name was Natasha Vyacheslavovna, she was a officer for Wilk during many Great Wars. Her uniform that she bears girds many medals of honor, and medals of dedication to their gods. Symbols of each of the Imperium's god is a medal on her uniform.<br>

Wilk smiles. He gets onto the radio, calling into the helmsmen <span style="color: #ff0000">"FTL us to Apocrypha's light, we got a Executor to talk to."</span><br>

	</div></i><br>​</div>On the Bridge of the Flagship, the Faer Isonmetyiks, Havradi file, Faeryie Gesalt looked out on Ziniyx. The planet was still pristine. He sighed in relief. His eight arms glitter on the volcanic web made for him. A chair most empires would equate to. The Kaiju fleet positioned quickly as the Havyortict files made work with the Moon Scythe's remaining fleet. Some of the bridge crew exploded in laughter as corvettes tumbled as weeds in the American West. Gesalt giggled as well. The Umbra's methodology kept even him on his toes, but from Daerys, nothing else could be asked. Gesalt never questioned Daerys's commands as a mastermind's plan shrouded around them. Gesalt drank of Volcanic blood, seeing that the Osos isolated the ships. The glimmering, smooth crystal hulls haunted space. Crystal pods of boarding parties, Voyids from the Walks of Umbrona committed to serving. Gesalt laid back.<br>
<br>
"The life of the army been mine, now I command fleets. He, what would you think now, Gosiwin? Miss the raging fire that energized my soul. Nothing to the display of darkness in the space." Gesalt drank, "Status on the planetary shield!" <br>
<br>
An energy cube materialized, "Fourteen percent." Gesalt nodded.<br>
<br>
"Take it slow. Once the Harbinger is disabled, let the crystals fly." The bridge of webs, lava, and haunting energy fired up. Constant hums and energized chorus accompanied the action. <br>
<br>
Rains of fire collided against ships as they refused to surrender. To the Orokin near the system, their systems would go off constant as matrixes of energy exploded against shields and hull. The Human pilots couldn't see anything over the layers of fire. Panicking and crashing into each other. The Defense fleet joined suit, punishing the invaders with fire. The fleet conjoined their fire into a shadow, darkening the space inside the battlefield. The Human ships struggled to see, turning their remaining lights on while pumping too much power into their FTLs. Crystal jammed into their hulls, seeing that no ship fired upon them directly. Some Humans reached for their guns as their sensors yammered on the foregin crew on board. <br>

	</div><br>​</div>The Crystal jammed into the hull, creating a power field for Echo procedures. Twenty Servyui per Crystal, eighteen crystals. Fireteams assembled and pushed the main pathways through the ship. Quiet, still... flickering lights as the ship desperately banged on the "bars" that imprisoned it. English overhead, red lights flashing. The sounds of human rally cries could be heard as the Servyus teams moved through the ship. Rattles of gears as they turned the fusion reactor over and over again. In the main concourse of the ship, there were scattered boxes of personal belongings. One had scattered pictures, thrown all around the container. The team observed the pictures until Yagdra lifted one. His bulky hands gently raised it to his head. Scanning the faces in the picture, he began to think. His body relaxed as his eyes closed. Others looked at him, confused.<br>
<br>
The fireteam leader approached him, "What's the matter?" Yagdra laid his webbed hand on the leader's shoulder. Quickly, Yagdra stored the picture in his back film. He walked to one of the doors, leading to other areas of the main concourse.<br>
<br>
"Icarus's father could be on the ship. Maybe we'll find him." Yagdra jumped onto the second floor, scanning the room before leaping across it in a bullet jump. He pressed himself against the wall by a large motorized door. The rest of the fireteam followed suit. Barging in, Yagdra activated his wrist shield. Walking into some sort of sleeping quarters, no human was armed. Yagdra scanned the individuals before executing them. Sending the data needed for a match, the others followed in line. No one matched. Disappointed, Yagdra continued to the security line. Multiple Human soldiers at the end of the hallway tossed fire. Taking cover, Yagdra launched a crystal forward, blinking in purple shadow. Unknowing of the new device, the crystal opened up in a hundred tentacles, crashing the first three into oblivion. One of the fireteam shot through a soldier's cover, bolting multiple together. Screams of their deaths rang in the air, the opposition panicked. Yet they were too late, the fireteam leader dashed across the walls swiping the remaining with his sharp hull. Cutting them in half as apples.<br>

	</div><br>
<div style="text-align: center">​</div>Continuing through the hallway, the Servyus approached the bridge of the ship. Comms blasted as the other fireteams exterminated the other crew. Yagdra hanged his head, in hope Icarus's father be in the bridge. The bridge door laid up two flight of stairs with bolts on every corner. The heavy Servyus made through the fireteam to the door, using her energized eyes to laser the door open. Holding up on both sides of the wall and using crates and human bodies as cover in the middle. As the door crashed on the ground the bridge crew of the ship held up their hands. For some reason, they had no weapons. Yagdra scanned the fellows, almost in pain until the final one. <br>
<br>
A match. Instantly, Yagdra picked up the older male. "What is your name?" The human stared at him, confused. A Servyus has always been brutal and fatal to those in his service. Gulping, the man rallied his courage.<br>
<br>
"Tiberius. Tiberius Edwards." His voice raspy and scared. Yagdra smiled, hugging him. His comrades rolled their eyes.<br>
<br>
"Good to meet you, would you like to see Icarus?" Tiberius shivered, yet he nodded. Yagdra released him gently and guided him through echo directly to the Eluditict Pylon. As the ship was cleared, the Kaiju fleet periodically scanned. Once cleared, the combat stopped. Suddenly and quietly. The fleet reassembled into the standard "Cloak" formation. <br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span class="horizontal-rule bbcode-horizontal-rule bbcode-horizontal-rule-dotted dotted">Return to Gesalt and Fleet Command</span>​</div>Gesalt clapped as the fleet overwhelmed the enemy, finishing the stragglers. However, he was concerned. A human was spared... that troubled him. However, a direct echo to the Eluditict laid in Daerys's wings, and Gesalt hardly questioned the Umbra's judgment. As he was about to disconnect from command, the alarms went full spree. <br>
<br>
An energy cube appeared, "Faeryie! During the battle, a fleet of two corvettes and a capital ship entered Zinyix space. One is in half, one unpowered, and the other is normal. Our databases are clueless of the origins of these crafts. Your command?"<br>
<br>
Gesalt cocked his head to the left, "Any humans?"<br>
<br>
"No, it appears some hybrid organic-robotic being. We should approach cautiously." Gesalt nodded.<br>
<br>
"Tell Daerys that we've contact with new Xenos. He will discuss with them. I know no one speaks for him unless he says so. I haven't heard the word." Gesalt laid back on his web. The cube vanished.<br>

	</div><br>​</div>Yagdra stopped by the large statue of mountains, beside Tiberius. Tiberius stayed calm, stretching to keep the endless dark off his mind. The mists, the dark fire, the endless display of cities across the Republic daunted him. The large galactic image above brought perspective to the room. Some stars were shown in black, instead of the traditional white. All in Solvarous Tezxis Kollam territory. Tiberius looked behind him, seeing animated dark mist following him. He shivered and walked faster until he bumped into the Umbra himself.<br>
<br>
Daerys snickered, in a good way. His wings wrapped Yagdra and Tiberius loosely, hiding their conversation, "So you must be Tiberius. Welcome to my chambers here on this ship. My grandson musteth told you of Icarus's involvement with us? Yes, he is alive. Yagdra happens to be his adopted brother in your terms. Through his thoughtfulness, he has brought you to me."<br>
<br>
"How did Icarus get to you people?" Tiberius screamed nervously, sweating. Daerys blew cool air around Tiberius calming him somewhat. <br>
<br>
"He traveled back with us when we freed him from the Moon Scythes. His dark powers attracted us. He was the only prisoner alive. Mr. Edwards, do not be afraid of us. We will not harm you, as the Umbra said. We are here to give you sanctuary from your previous employment." Tiberius looked Yagdra in the eyes. His old age left him coughing at times.<br>
<br>
"Where is he? And I suppose I must thank you for your hospitality." <br>
<br>
The Umbra laid a cup of water by Tiberius's feet, "Here, drink. Currently, he is working with our diplomats in foreign relations. We expect him back in an Earth week. In the while, you can live with Yagdra on Isoni. However, I must be off. Nice to meet you, Tiberius."<br>
<br>
The Umbra swiped his left wing, guiding darkness to pass over them as Echo found them out. The Umbra softly looked up at the ancient crystal above him. It haunted the room as a thousand banshees. Gesalt entered.<br>
<br>
"Thank you for your leadership Gesalt. Now I must perform my duties for the Republic. The fleet will return to Oberzirx. The Eluditict pylon shalleth be my vessel to speak." Gesalt bowed as he exited. <br>
<br>
Alone in his chambers, Daerys moved the titanic vessel over to the alien fleet. Slowly, he melded the crystal circuits of the walls into the screen behind him. After quick scans of the ship's communications systems, the Umbra ordered hail to the ships. <br>

Beacon City, Devana</b><br>​</div>Gardner nodded. <span style="color: #0080ff">"That is correct."</span> He said. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Humanity, or <i>our </i>humanity, for that matter, hasn't had contact with intelligent alien life up until the mid-twenty-ninth century."</span> He explained. "<span style="color: #0080ff">When we first travelled to space in the year 1961, we became curious about what lies above. We spent years of research and billions trying to find out if we were really alone in the universe, setting up whole scientific searches like the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence for that very purpose. Yet decades of endlessly sending out greetings, calls that we were here turned out to be in vain."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #0080ff">"Eventually, in the early twenty-third century, humanity discovered its solution to the limitations of sublight travel in the form of the Relative Intra-dimensional Field Transit, or RIFT, which allowed us to leave our solar system and spread to the stars. However, he never gave up on trying, hopping from system to system in hopes that we would at least find a clue of existence. All we found were feral alien species no better than animals on Earth and extraterrestrial plant life, but it still gave us hope. As the years turned into decades, and the decades into centuries, we began to give up, realisation slowly dawning on is that we <i>are </i>alone, after all."</span><br>
<br>
He sighed as he remembered humanity's destructive first contact. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Then, in the year 2843, we finally found what we were looking for after almost nine hunred years: intelligent alien life. Only, they weren't friendly. The Vaskran Hierarchy was far from friendly. It started off as a simple misunderstanding, with a human mining ship unknowingly dropping out of a RIFT tunnel into the edge of Vaskran space. Vaskran patrol ships instantly opened fire on it. The ship acted in self-defence, but it wasn't enough. After distracting its attackers with its complement of seismic charges, it escaped to the nearest UEG colony: Cascade."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #0080ff">"The Vaskran ships followed it, but all but one were destroyed by the Cascade Defence Fleet. The surviving ship escaped back to Vaskran territory. The Vaskrans returned three days later with an invasion fleet, and that's pretty much how this who thing started. Nine years of war and billions dead on both sides."</span> He turned to stare out the window at the city down below.<span style="color: #0080ff"> "Sixteen years ago, this place was a war-torn wasteland. Now, it's thriving. It's a miracle how quickly we can rebuild after the most devastating conflicts."</span><br>
<br>
He turned back to the Hydran ambassador. "<span style="color: #0080ff">Three years after the war, when the UEG was still in its rebuilding process with the help of our newfound Vaskran allies, we came into a plentora of alien races and empires we didn't eve know existed."</span> He motioned towards Tlur. <span style="color: #0080ff">"And that's how we came into contact with your kind. The Vaycanta Imperium as a whole."</span><br>
<br>
He finished his explanation with a smile. <span style="color: #0080ff">"I think that's enough for my little history lesson. Please, tell me more about the Vaycanta Imperium."</span><br>

<span style="color: #a64dff">"ah, yes, the imperium."</span> Tlur Braced himself remembering the vast history of the imperium, with a soft sigh he closed his eyes and prayed to Irus. <span style="color: #a64dff">"The imperium's history spans several millennia, The Reverend mother, Valis'Tura, was there."</span> Opening his eyes and looking at the Governor. <span style="color: #a64dff">"Before we were even space born Apocrypha's light was divided into various nations, it took a century of conflict both bloody and bitter until we all were under the same banner, but after that we thrived and continued on, we called these troubling times. The First Crusade. A few more years after that we started looking at the stars to find more life and peoples. We had not developed Faster Than Light Travel yet, and without the gracious ReiConess we never would have." </span>He paused. <span style="color: #a64dff">"The ReiConess was our first contact with a species other than ourselves, fortunately for us they weren't this 'Vaskran Hierarchy' of yours. we met with one of our exploratory vessels attempting to make Hydran history of going to another system. As you can tell we haven't developed FTL and we've never actually invented our own so this exploratory vessel was travelling at sublight speeds. the ReiConess made contact with the vessel and awoke the Hydran there. the two peoples spoke to each other and developed a friendship. In return the ReiConess gave us their Faster Than Light technology. Wormhole generators. They are cost efficient at bringing through multiple ships and travelling long distances, but are slow to begin with."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #a64dff">"After that first encounter the ReiConess and us Hydra made a trade agreement and over time they were enlightened by our religion and joined our empire. Then two centuries of expansion and prosperity followed we met many Civilizations and races, who in time joined the imperium. This Period of Expansion is aptly named. The Second Crusade."</span> Taking a quick break Tlur continued. <span style="color: #a64dff">"That ended when we made contact with another race, an aggressive one. our Vaskran Hierarchy."</span> His tone lowered as if he had strong feelings about this part. <span style="color: #a64dff">"We attempted to make contact like so many other races before but they simply ignored it and started attacking without reason. The first of our planets to be met with them fell quickly, and."</span> Tlur looked out the window as if remembering a dark past. <span style="color: #a64dff">"It did not end well for those that lived there. The imperium responded with our fleet but we had not had ship to ship warfare until this moment and our ships were simply civilian ships with guns attached to them." </span>he looked at Garner with all heads.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #a64dff"> "That fleet was wiped out without effort. Soon enough The reverend mother declared a Third Crusade, everyone answered the call if not in their own way. As this alien race continued to conquer more of our worlds we fought back voraciously if only to delay them. Apocrypha's light and all other planets were soon covered in factories and started to produce ships in a streamlined manor. However this was for naught as the enemy ships kept coming and coming as though there were no end. Was it not for the Reverend Mothers Psionic abilities the imperium would have been destroyed and you may have had to face another more unrelenting foe."</span> Taking in a deep breath Tlur's eyes looked upward. <span style="color: #a64dff">"The Blessed Reverend Mother most powerful of all the Psionics and holyest of us all, commandeered a ship and went to face the enemy with our largest fleet. Meeting head to head with the enemy fleet the battle lasted days of constant ship to ship warfare. The reverend mother in all her glory lead us to victory." </span>Tlur was hesitant and thoughtful enough to leave how she affected the battle out of the explanation. Looking back at the Governor he added <span style="color: #a64dff">"And in revenge of our fallen we destroyed the enemy and wiped them off the galactic map, we do not know of they still exist. Only that we should never let our guard down again." </span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #a64dff">"But that is not the end to the long tale that is the Imperiums beginnings, we continued to expand albeit more cautiously, Then we made contact with the Empire of Heydros."</span> Tlur looked over at the soldiers and his tone became more lighter. <span style="color: #a64dff">"At first we simply traded, this happened for decades until they joined the imperium, becoming one of the most valuable additions with their ingenuity and militaristic culture. they now provide most of the imperiums security."</span> Hearing this the Heydrian soldiers gestured a little as if feeling immense pride, looking back at Garner Tlur 'smiled' <span style="color: #a64dff">"and now Ewther guided us to you."</span><br>

			<dd class="first  " style="">
				 "See this one? How he smiles in the light..." Wilk was holding on an long barrel STAVKA rifle<br>
The barrel was gleaming in the light of the ceiling in the Frigate's armory. Wilk gently places the STAVKA back onto its container. Wilk turns his head, seeing the chainaxe that his great grandfather had used many years ago against the corrupted Lord Executor that commanded the Heydrian Army. An enemy to the people of Heydros.<br>
<br>
He grabs the handle of the chain axe, he then lifts it in the air. Natasha flinches as the movement was made, but Wilk wasn't intending on killing her. "There is one last artifact of the Wilk Dynasty that I must find..."<br>
<br>
Wilk put the chain axe back into the container.<br>
<br>
Natasha asks, like a quiet mouse. "What would that artifact be?"<br>
<br>
Wilk turns his head to face Natasha, his cybernetic turns then to face her. "It's the Pride of Heydros." The Pride of Heydros was a Pride-class Super Carrier class, thats been in construction since Heydros lost connection to the UEG and Earth<br>
<br>
Natasha stares at Wilk for a brief moment "You're going to... steal the biggest ship in the Empire?"<br>
<br>
Wilk nods his head, his neck creaks as the metal moves.<br>
<br>
Natasha looks at him. "Well, you're going to need help... I might as well help you."<br>
<br>
Wilk nods again. Natasha paces around for a moment "Do we have any idea where this ship is being located? It was finished this year, so it's crew is still being loaded onto the massive ship. Do we have a crew that can man that size of a ship?"<br>
<br>
Wilk nods again. Natasha seems angry. "Who?" Wilk looks down at her. "This crew, we don't necessary need Heydrians to man this ship. The ship is currently being constructed at Zanos, the only Forgeworld strong enoug to produce that ship."<br>
<br>
"I'm alive at last..." Wilk walks out of the armory, it was time to make the announcement of his plan, and it was time to gather enough support to join his crew.<br>

Within moments, several Heydrian commanders give their nods of approval towards the Executor. "Anyways, do we have anything else to discuss here? I've already lost one great commander."

"-he Chandelier to led ship! detecting large Flag ship coming our direction! Respond! respond lead ship!"<br>
<br>
Hate would not replied only to retrieve the large vessel in there radio<br>
<br>
"Captain, large flag ship in close proximity, they are trying to hail us"<br>
"Open comms....Hail them...We are at no power to....Do anything in this unknown land"<br>
soon the lead battleship would hail the massive titanic flag ship, it would be hard to explain what has happen,Hate  calm and straight forward reply he would greet the unknown ship.<br>
"Salutations....I am aware this .....has been a...Unexpected situation, we come in peace with no....Intention of causing any conflict....We are The Cataphract exploration fleet.....sent beyond our boundaries to explore the unknown....it seems our FTL device has given up....Bringing us here without warning. Forgive our sudden appearance"<br>
Hate said in the Hail, Trying his best to explain but as well talking in a spaced speech like he always dose, the quadruped creature stood on his golden platform as his team stood silently waiting for a response.<br>
<br>
Soon there comms when live as a image of what seem to be a...Dragon, a mechanical representation of a mythological legend, well now this was rather interesting faction yet, Hate was impressed at the fact instead of engaging in rather hostile diplomacy, it was a kind tone, menacing as it sounded it was kind<br>
"Night Salutations friend, welcome to Solvarous Tezxis Kollam space. This is our rim world known as Zinyix. I bid thee welcome and fear not your sudden entrance. My people and myself do not bite that quickly.  Our sensors tell that your fleet was present for most of the battle that commenced here in the orbit of Zinyix. Did you suffer any fire from raiders?"<br>
<br>
hearing they will not obliterate them from the face of space was a nice first impression to what seem mechanical beings, Hate was glad to see the friendly expression to them and it was at best<br>
 "Thank your acceptance, its of great tranquility to be at a welcoming hand....But no, we have not been impacted by the combat that....took place in the area....the only damage we suffer was by our own hands...We-"<br>
<br>
 Hate was cut off as a small orokin walked on screen and whispered in his ear "Captain, with power back on grid we are doing all we can to get those from the damage corvette on board"<br>
<br>
 Hate nodes as he return to the screen and continued<br>
"Excuse my sudden interruption, But the only damage was from our own hands as our technology backed fired on our ship, taking whole one of ours and damaging my vessel, But everything is under control for now......We are in a way lost, being flung through space with no knowledge of where we are going is not a good idea i must say..."<br>
He said  rather looking over his shoulder seeing allied orokin being taken in the ship as some are missing half there body and upon other parts from the failed fragmentation<br>
"We need short amount of time to recover and patch our damaged brothers and sisters, i hope to ask if we could stay temporarily in your space till we are ready to go off on our quest" He asked as....Hate knew they where robotic, something of interesting nature....he dare ask more about them and maybe know of there abilities, but...its best to leave that for later, there quest to recover technology still goes on even in this state.<br>
<br>
The image of the draconian being soon flashed as it spoke "I am Daerys, Umbra of my people known as the Servyus. Glad that such raiders failed to harm you. It seems it would be best that you stayeth with us for sometime as unreliable FTL in the wider galaxy sunders reward over risk. "<br>
<br>
The Umbra paused, "Your aspirations for exploration are admirable. As the increasing interest for other sentient life lingered over my people, I begun to set out expedition parties like yourself. Judging from the condition of your fleet, I'd offer docking upon the Eluditict Plyon before you. Your FTL must have overextended, so I will see that some hyperspace cores be prepared to accompany any remaining drives you have." The voice that came from Daerys was rather chilling, as that of a fearing creature yet with hospitality and respect.<br>
<br>
"Our constructors through your assistance can gladly repair your ships."<br>
<br>
Hate was beyond glad to hear they will lend there assistance, but as well knowing who this enigmatic figure was Daerys, Umbra who are the Servyus.<br>
"I am Hate, High council of the Orokin ranks, now explore of king Valor, its a honor to be in you temporary care till we can recover" Hate said as now seeing they are in none hostile territory and in security of this empire was of such luck, more luck and rare than to find a green planet in this massive galaxy we live with mysterious areas yet to be seen by eyes.<br>
 Hate would look rather impressed and more so confused yet so relief knowing that they have fallen in what seem the luckiest jackpot but as well such a intimidating figure yet with great hospitality, "I must agree at same words, till the recovery of my people and fleet is complete, knowing more of your culture would be admirable, but as well i would be of open arms to share of ours"<br>
 Hate soon looked as his crew would pin point the Eluditict Pylon, close and knowing they will grant assistance in completing there ship, it would be easy to return home...but it might take longer without crafting a fragmentation gate, Hate had ideas, maybe they could craft  a gate, making a direct link to the Trinity gate, but he had to think of this<br>
 "Thank you for your assistance, i must say our risky misadventure has ended in luck, if there is any way to repay would be to hear your words Great Daerys"<br>
 Hate looked at his orokin's working as the ship was in great condition and everything was under control, but the torn Ship...maybe they could use it to replace parts of there damaged battleship as the Umbra orderd repairs, would make it much easier.<br>
 "Tell us when to dock and he will proceed"<br>
<br>
The Umbra lifting his head was viewed on screen, as command to open a hangar bay on the right side of the ship, or the left from the Orokin's view. Multiple crystals flew out from the Hangar bay, they traveled to the broken Corvette and trapped it in a gravitational well to secure it. As the crystals began to move it back to the Pylon, Daerys etched out his spines on his back. They glowed, resonating with the ship, waves of energy flowed to the Orokin ships before panning out in a path to the hangar bay. A teal in color, haunting indeed. The Great Leader of the Servyus soon spoke.<br>
<br>
"Clarence granted, come forth when willing my friend.  We have much to discuss, sharing cultures will be delightful. Its been awhile since I've met a sentient metal as your kind. Maybe in time, I will come back to your home space to speak with King Valor. However, take my kindness as a gift. My people are intimidating as foreign consuls have spoken off. Actions speak trutheth, letting it appear before your eyes.  I'd imagine some uploads of the locals maps would be beneficial. Some of our neighbors are quite Xenophobic, so we shall you a way to avoid them. "<br>
<br>
The Umbra bowed his head momentarily as sign of the near end of the hail, "I'll have my Servyui escort you to the Discussion hall. If any of your personnel require energy or similar refreshments, our Feast hall should provide. Let my people be of Service friend, Erys vhaly Tosihy." The hail would end. With the path clear for the Fleet to follow.<br>
<br>
Hate witness how the half torn Corvette was slowly being dragged to the vessel, all personal was evacuated from it successfully so all was in order, seeing the path shine there way with a haunting teal. If some one would judge books by its covers it would be Hate but now, he has learn even the fears of looking factions wont tear you apart like twigs, some would kindly help you and wish to drink tea while talking about politics or such and this was the case here.<br>
 "Your gift is most appreciated Great Daerys, my King would be of greatly delighted to know who rescued our fleet, i will be of haste to communicate with you as well. And Freight not, we will be careful out in the unknown thanks to your assistance, its of great luck we fell here instead of...some other Xenophopic faction."<br>
 He said as hearing the fact now there are hostile factions some where in the sector they should be more careful, if they have fallen in one who knows what would have been instead of a kind greeting.<br>
 "Thank you once again Great Daerys, we hope our greeting extends more than a visit friend, we will be in touch soon"<br>
<br>
Soon the comm was cut off and Hate would sigh scratch his chin as one of the pilots would look back to there captain and say "we have been blessed in better words" he said with a chuckle as hate would shake his head and correct "No...we got lucky" he said as his body would twist and soon Hate instead on standing on all four like some creature, he would be standing up right, with hands on his back he would point forward for them to follow the path, the ship...this behemoth was outstanding, it was clearly bigger than a Oroking Super carrier, maybe even bigger than King Valor's Master Dadaleus. But right now, they had to greet there new friends and make sure once they return home tell king valor everything, this might change a lot of his plans.<br>

			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">The battleship and its corvette followed the lined path, nearing the massive vessel and as soon they got close the battleship would connect and dock against this titan,. The Orokin battleship was marble white with golden trips on its edges, it was decorated heavily as it was oval in shape and slim, with no sharp edges. The full Corvette instead of docking attached itself under the battleship, becoming part of it, but its opposite side was empty as the other corvette was completely no use for them now, all was left was a empty space.<br>
<br>
Once the battleship docked, the airlock soon lead to a second airlock completely different from the orokin's, Hate walked through in a more humanoid appearance with his Ovis rank color, Black and grey with red but soon his metallic exterior would change to a marble white and its trims change to "Gold" as a short cape holding the Cataphract emblem.He was followed by 2 guards, humanoid in appearance but with four arms holding spear like weaponry in there hands. Once the airlock open and Hate was revealed to the ship inside, he could feel the eyes lays on them. The Difference was great compared to there home, they are pure mechanical while Hate and the rest are organic from the inside in some areas. But yet all are mechanic, He looked around rather....impressed with the odd constructions and the use of those Crystals. A small marble drone would fly beside Hate and hover beside him as a voice came from it<br>
<br>
"Captain, this is the control room, we are monitoring everything we can from here and inform you if we manage to get any Signal sent by our brothers back home. As far i can tell these...Servyus are 100% sentient machines, no sign of organic signature...not to sound rude but just saying my data, they might be less advance then us as far body composition go, yet...some how they are more advance than us possessing sentient capabilities, i know we are sentient like our creators and we are machines but we use rather complex organic and robotic neural systems...they are 100% robotic yet...have the same capabilities AS a organic....interesting....Queen Hope would...enjoy studying these creature...But enough of that, we have a reunion with there leader, make heist Captain"<br>
Hate began to walk down the path as escorts lead them to where there Umbra was located, they are taking cautious measures, 6  of the guards circulated Hate and his two followers, whose spear like weapons are holstered afterwards as they are told to, keeping close eye as they are being lead to him. Hate was glad to have passed through this territory, he still cannot stop thinking of how it would have been if they fell somewhere else, could have been a complete failure..yet now...it was time to speak.<br>

<b><u><span style="font-size: 18px">System 262</span></u></b><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The system, System 262, was on the very western edge of The Imperial Automation's borders. It, like all the systems that remained around the very edge of the empire's territory, contained a fortress world. A heavily armoured, shielded bastion of defense designed to repel any forms of attack, be it orbital or land. Like all other planets that had been terraformed within the empire, which was all that had been long-colonised, there was no air or flora anywhere. It was a hostile environment to any organics that needed such things to survive and any invading ground forces would need special space-apparatus just to survive down there. There was gravity, however, stronger than usual planets. Soldiers carrying all that equipment would tire quickly.<br>
</span><br>
But that was not the only special feature about each fortress world in The Imperial Automation. Each fortress planet contained a wide-scale advanced FTL inhibitor that destabilized jump space for passing ships, ripping them from their FTL jump and preventing them from jumping again due to the instability of the space. Additionally, the longer the jump had been prior to being interrupted, the more damage would be caused to the FTL drives, potentially irreparably damaging them. It was this that had secured the empire's borders from sneaky alien ships attempting to slip in. Even stealth crafts, although undetectable, could not bypass the inhibitor. Unless they attempted to fly through the territory at sublight speed, which would have taken centuries, there was no way to enter The Imperial Automation without approval of The Great Network.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">It was due to this that it came as an unexpected surprise when a ship was found attempting to enter the borders. The fortress world had immediately gone on an emergency responsive defense mode, activating its advanced planetary shield and contacting a nearby fleet for support. Upon The Great Network's orders, however, the planet's command relay, which acted as a governor of sorts for the planet, also hailed the unidentified xeno ship, its superior communications technology able to easily form a stable connection despite the contact being at the other end of the system.<br>
<br>
The hail was merely just a notification to the ship's captain of an incoming live communication from an unknown source from within the system. Unable to jump away, the ship would be forced to either accept the call or find some other means of escape. If it decided to attack, which would be pointless against a planet anyway, a war fleet would be jumping into the system soon via a warp gate in a neighbouring system. <br>
<br>
It would take a while for the light to travel across the system for the unknown ship to realise the planetary defenses had been activated, but they would immediately pick up the planet and everything else that had been reflecting light in the meantime. Communications would take a minute to reach them too, but once a connection was established then there would be no time-late delay like most interstellar communication was. You couldn't send a hail faster than light, after all. Well, not with current technology anyway.<br>

The ship stopped first before resizing into the full capital ship it was. Gel would dematerialize by the crystal hull of the ship. The front limbs of the ship would widen and make rotations. After some time, the shields would become visible. Showing four distinct layers, each shining and spaced from one another. On the main body of the ship would be an extrusion of a crystal. Glowing and blinking, waves of energy would form, starting to create a bubble around them ship as it entered cloak. The waves of energy would remain, slowly expanding outward until it reached the planetoid. No damage would be dealt as the waves did not work that way. Eventually, the entire surface area of the facing side of the planet would glow in the haunting teal hallmarked by the Republic.<br>
<br>
Gazing at the planet, the ship's manager analyzed basic stats of the planet. Sending them to the crew before asking for transportation to position.<br>
<div style="text-align: center">​</div>Hunhow accepted the transportation the ship's manager implied. His screen face gazed over the bridge once more, looking forwards at the large metal world. An oddity, he looked to his left. Icarus stood beside him, humming old tunes from his childhood with flaming darkness projecting out of his hair. The bridge crew peered to Hunhow, already on his lead. The captain of the ship bowed, softly walking to his position. Slowly, the captain laid a cup of volcanic blood upon the desk, swiftly adjusting the crystal sphere that floated over obsidian shards. Collected to form a spire-like shape. To represent the keep of the Umbra.<br>
<br>
"My Shade, thy command lingers in thee. Time seeks, whateth the Shadow will?" The captain paused, letting his back crystal plates extend to his ankles. Soft wings materialize as the Koldirai crystal inside of him returned to his body.<br>
<br>
"Await communication, the sentient speak. Actions linger in pockets." Hunhow tapped his fingers on his desk, sighing. His body laid out over the collection of floating plates. His left arm raised, puffing a sphere of darkness.<br>

We both have a long and bloody history, but a rich and interesting one too."</span> He said. The Marines, seeing the prideful gestures of their Heydrian counterparts, returned with one of their own, albeit much more enthusiastic, as if challenging them to some friendly competition. Gardner glanced at them and smiled. <span style="color: #0080ff">"I'm sure there's a lot more we can learn from each other. History, culture, technology. I hope there'll be much collaboration between our armed forces."</span><br>
<br>
"<i>Arriving at Tribute Planetary Capital in one minute.</i>" The pilot announced as the craft turned, tilting to the left. Out through the reinforced plexiglass windows, the expansive capital building of Tribute became all too clear. It was a large place, as tall as the buildings around it. Trees and vegetation grew everywhere, in the long and narrow courtyard, the garden outside, and even the building itself. Transports of all different kinds landed and took off, ferrying visitors and officials to and fro. The entire place was guarded by a mass of security detail, ranging from armoured personnel, to security drones, to automated turrets.</span><br>
<br>
Gardner's holotool securely fastened to his left wrist beeped, confirming verification from scanners down below. The craft began to descend, before it hovered over a landing pad and touched down smoothly. The ramp opened, and sunlight poured in as the Beluga's passengers made their way out. Marine guards outside immediately turned and faced, lining the sides for Gardner and his detail to exit, saluting him. <br>
<br>
As the governor stepped outside, he was immediately met with the sight of numerous news teams and reporters, camera drones hovering several feet above the ground, all hoping to catch some footage of the Hydran ambassador and his human guards. Gardner frowned he he began to pick up the pace. <span style="color: #0080ff">"<i>Tlur,</i>"</span> He called, sounding rushed. <span style="color: #0080ff">"It's crucial we get out of the way of these reporters."</span> The guards held the teams back, but still, there were so many of them. Gardner ignored them as he gave forced waves to the crowd, before entering the building.<br>
<br>
The planetary governor exhaled and straightened up his tie. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Expect a lot of news teams wanting to catch a sight of you."</span> Eric told the ambassador in a half-serious, half-joking tone. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Negotiations will begin in an hour in Central Room A-3. Please, feel free to find out as much as you like about the UEG during that time."</span><br>

			<dd class="first  " style="">
				The Andros-class frigate exits slipspace and enters the shipyard of Zanos, the sole Factory world of the Empire. They dock into the stellar port. The ship is quickly scanned, then cleared for docking. It isn't hard to see that Wilk is a figure that stands out, as he pushes the crowds of Imperium workers that were hauling cargo and supplies in the Imperium cargo ships. Natasha and Wilk get into the magnet lift train towards the other side of the shipyard section of the factory world.<br>
<br>
Many hours later, they arrived. They stepped off the train, with several heavily armed Heydrian soldiers accompanying them. Wilk didn't know of his command removal, nor everyone else in the Imperium.<br>
<br>
The Pride of Heydros was ahead of them, it was docked. The ship looked magnificent in design, a true splendor of the Empire. The squadron of Heydrian soldiers accompanied Wilk and Natasha to the entrance of the ship.<br>
<br>
Wilk sighs. "This is now commanded by me. Commander Wilk, submit the crew to the Wilk Boyars and you will be spared." The soldier complied. And quickly the group rushed towards the bridge.<br>
<br>
"Here we are." He presses the interface to allow him to communicate over the course of the ship. "This is Commander Wilk, the crew of the HNS Pride of Heydros is now under the control of the Wilk Boyars. Submit and you will be spared and will be apart of this ship's crew."<br>
<br>
The reports came in, atleast 98% of the crew decided to stay on the ship and be loyal to Wilk, still unknowing of the situation. The 2 percent were sent off out of the ship. The crew is estimated to be 450 individuals. All of them Heydrian Fleet crewmen.<br>
<br>
"My sweet daughter and my wife's redemption is at hand. Natasha, tell the Helm to get ready to launch into slipspace, we're getting out of Imperium space."<br>
<br>
Natasha nods, she stands next to the strategic galactic map, and directs the crew to set a course to UEG space. <a href="/members/corrosion.17918/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="17918" data-xf-init="member-tooltip">

				"I am deeply concerned with the lack of development of the Heydrian ground forces, I've received many reports of soldiers not even receiving a Type 1 in simulated battles and engagements. Logistical organization is the biggest issue with the Black Army. And of course, actual military readiness has been a problem for the Black Army."<br>

				Marianna was looking out of her upper level window, at the street known as Butcher's Row. This street was the home of many aristocratic Boyars in the Imperium, and the highest class hotels. She several Heydrian soldiers walking down the streets. The soldiers were escorting Marianna's female guardian, Izabela Cwalina.<br>
<br>
Marianna knew her parents had died long ago, and she was adopted by the Cwalina Boyars. Marianna was at the age of 19, she doesn't remember her parents. However, the Cwalina Boyars had accepted her like their own. They described her father as a "man of great power and prejudice." She never questioned much on her past, she saw her guardian along side the Heydrian soldiers.<br>
<br>
Marianna walked slowly to the entrance of the estate. Marianna looked at these halls for many years, the same portraits of these great leader and people in Heydrian society. At the bottom of the stairs, the door opens and Izabela walks into the building. "Good day, and may the Gods smile on our house." Izabela says as she enters. Marianna smiles for a brief moment.<br>
<br>
"Where is father?" Marianna asks. Izabela sighs, looks around the atrium they were in. "He's at Apocrypha's Light."<br>
<br>
The Heydrian News Service was in the background playing on the holovision device, leaked information several moments ago was unleashed. Wilk was a renegade and deemed to be arrested alive to be brought to justice in Apocrypha's Light<br>
<br>
Marianna was taught at a young age, among many at the private school she attended in the Imperium, that the Heydrians were a noble race of people who would never betray the Imperium. Marianna stared at the holovision device's hologram of the Heydrian News Service's announcement. "You think thats the result of father?" Marianna asks, Izabela nods in response. "I wonder what happened." Marianna retorts.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Tlur watched the UEG's city as the transport flew down getting a better look of the alien city before him, needless to say he was surprised at the amount of security detail they had deployed. He was flattered of course but he couldn't help but think it was all too unnecessary, of course Tlur himself was part of a multi-cultural conglomerate so he shouldn't judge what a nation who all but recently was in a long war. As the hanger doors opened the Governor got out first and he was met by marines and then he told Tlur to avoid the press. Tlur didnt question it as the Governor knew more about his own people and his nation than Tlur did.<span style="color: #a64dff"> "Okay you lead the way"</span> Tlur looked back at his guard personnel. <span style="color: #a64dff">"Don't do anything that would grab anyones attention just look forward and follow"</span> Walking out of the transport Tlur couldn't help but notice the architecture it was quite amazing with many layers now this is reminiscent of apocrypha's light, <span style="color: #a64dff">"You have a beautiful planet Eric Garner." </span><br>

Heva'Latre and the representatives nodded at the Executors words, it was quite a well known problem now that the Heydrian army was lacking in terms of equipment. Where had all the resources they sent to them had gone? it was quite troubling. Maybe he could send some siguras engineers to see how their manufactoring sectors were, And ReiConess accountants to see where the resources were allocated. Looking over to the Shenra representative and leader, Gwain. <span style="color: #ff0000">"I believe the executor will need a few of your logistics managers to help sort things out."</span> Heva was careful between the two, The Shenra empire and the Heydros empire had been rivals for years. Shenra had better ships but Heydros had the numbers on the ground. Gwain reluctantly nodded at the First Strategos. Heva then looked over to the Lead Director Hakafar of the Liqushar Irenic planets. <span style="color: #ff0000">"Send some of your Engineers to see what they can do to fix the Heydrian Manufacturing sectors, i hear it has been struggling for quite some time.</span>" Exhaling the stress away with a prayer to Irus he looked at the holographic map. <span style="color: #ff0000">"Gwain, i believe you have a new ship design something about a reconnaissance vessel?"</span> Gwaine walked over to the hologram and pushed a few buttons to show a small ship no larger than a corvette <span style="color: #ffff00">"yes, we found that in our psionic warp drives that the ships in them temporarily disappear from sensors. right now we only have blueprints for this ship." <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>Rezerzinkov Promenade<br>
Building No. 5 <br>
Ferraria, Kefalonia<br>
</b>​</div>It was early in the morning, local time. Actually, it was exactly three as the monotonous <i>DWONG, DWONG, DWONG </i>of the nearby belfry of St. Ekerov's cathedral stirred Olikor Velarius from his troubled sleep. Before his eyes, images flashed: a city in flames, a great palace reduced to ionic dust, screaming and wailing in pain and anguish, horrible demonic alien cries of lament. He sat up and let a wave of air wash over him from the open window. It was summertime, and that meant the temperature was a balmy 60 Fahrenheit. It did little to calm his shattered nerves. <br>
<br>
His wife reached out and affectionately touched his right arm. "Dreaming again, Vel?" <br>
<br>
He sighed and laid back down, his eyes cast upwards through the window at the twin moons before falling back to rest on the face of his wife, Elmera. <br>
<br>
"Yes, dear. Just dreams." <br>
<br>
"It's been happening more often lately." <br>
<br>
He sighed again. "I know. I guess it's just work." The workload was getting heavier at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Especially for a translator such as himself. Velarius was fluent in most of the major languages of the Galaxy, although a bit rusty in several. During the war, he had been a signal decoder at first before he was thrust into frontline combat on the final push against the Gorgothan capital. But that had been over one hundred years ago. Velarius, now middle aged, couldn't shake the memory of what had happened when their forces stormed the capital. Like a mighty wave, Kefalonia's might came crashing down on the Gorgothans. In the chaos, the rules of engagement were abandoned. It was as if the generals had cried havoc and let slip the dogs of war. Men, good men, he had seen bayoneting women and children. Not that the atrocities weren't mutual, but he had always thought Kefalonians were better than that. That they weren't capable of such evil. <br>
<br>
Tribunals inevitably followed the battle, but in the chaos it was hard to pin down exactly who did what. All that they knew was that the Gorgothan race was dead. The bane of their existence for three hundred years had met an abrupt end as they stubbornly fought to the last. Only a small fraction of men alive know what kind of monsters people can be, and Velarius was one of those men. And he was a monster too, for he had also taken part in that civilizational catharsis. Some nights he would scream internally, begging himself to confess his sins. Confess to the vicar, to his wife, to the Galaxy. But every time he caught himself. What would they say? How would she look at me if I told her? Better to let it lie. <br>
<br>
Sleep overtook him once again, and thrust him into a happier dream. This one, of his children and his wife on a stroll in the park. That happy dream carried him until the alarm clock awoke him once more.</div>

Before that, this place was barren rock and rolling sand dunes."</span> He turned to look out the window at transports going by. It looked like he was about to say something more, as he opened his mouth to speak, but was stopped when someone came calling his name.<br>
<br>
"Governor Gardner!" Eric turned to see an older man in a black dress uniform, shoulder marks showing the silver stars of a general. His chest proudly displayed a fairly large number of service ribbons, designating him as a decorated veteran of the Vaskran War. Most obvious, however, was an insignia above the ribbons, a polished metallic star coloured in blue, white, and gold, the Compass and Continents emblem of the UEG in the middle. The man speedwalked up to the Planetary Governor. "I have to speak with you."<br>
<br>
Gardner nodded. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Oh, yes."</span> He turned to the ambassador and his guards.<span style="color: #0080ff"> "This is Marshall Rimmer, the Chief of Defence of Tribute."</span><br>
<br>
"Right. Ambassador Tlur'kari." Rimmer merely nodded as he turned back to Gardner. "Sir, this is urgent. I have some important matters to discuss with you." He urged.<br>
<br>
Eric frowned. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Alright. If this is important, then I'll listen."</span> He turned to the Tlur. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Ambassador Tlur, I apologise, but I must be off. I'll refer you to Gideon while I'm gone."</span> He turned to his guards. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Leave me."</span> With that, he and Rimmer walked in the opposite direction and disappeared around a corner.<br>
<br>
Several seconds passed before the air in front of the group seemed to glow, before the translucent red holographic form of a man in military apparel of body armour and an exosuit from the mid-twenty-first century and a black beanie appeared. <span style="color: #b30000">"Gardner's gone off again, eh?"</span> He questioned in a British accent that could only be described as 'honey-gravel', before putting his hands behind his back.<span style="color: #b30000"> "Greetings, gentlemen. My name is Gideon. I'm Tribute's Planetary Administration Artificial Intelligence."</span> He introduced.<span style="color: #b30000"> "I handle security, administration, oversight, basically everything that happens here on Tribute. I'm a Standard-type AI, which means I can answer any question you give me."</span> He tilted his head and smiled, his grin showing through his unshaven face. <span style="color: #b30000">"Which I know is a lot. So ask away, mates."</span><br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 15px">Space Above UEG Colony World Makelo<br>
</span></b>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">A massive explosion of blue and white ripped through the darkness of space, creating an intense miniature star for a few seconds, before it receded. When it did, all that was left in its wake were several pieces of red-hot metal and the charred and broken skeleton of a warship. Several bodies tumbled out into the vacuum; the hull of the ship their grave. The remains of the ship began to fall into the atmosphere of the planet down below as it was pulled into it due to its gravitational field, burning up as it did.<br>
</span><br>
That was the sixteenth ship that went down.<br>
<br>
Above, hundreds of missiles streaked through the void as did hundreds upon thousands of railgun rounds, not to mention dozens of fighter craft and point-defence rounds. And of course, the massive red beams of light that shot through faster than the eye could see. From down below, civilians, soldiers, even robotic constructs stared into the night sky in awe of the fiery wrecks crashing down and the lightshow up above. From the ground, it seemed mystifying.<br>
<br>
In space, it was total chaos.<br>
<br>
Dozens of ships dashed through space, wildly unleashing their munitions at the enemy targets. Right now, a UEGNC response fleet was engaging a joint Colonial Freedom Front and Coalition of Free Colonies, two of the most well-equipped and well-trained rebel groups in UEG space. While generally sharing the same weapons, the two groups had contrasting design philosophies. Where the UEGNC went for protection and utility, the rebels mostly went for firepower and speed.<br>
<br>
Ironically, the fact that the UEG was used to fighting an enemy who prioritised speed and firepower over protection and utility have been a contributing factor in humanity's victory over the Vaskrans during the Vaskran War, as they too followed the same philosophy.<br>
<br>
On the bridge of the <i>Lysander-</i>class battlecarrier, Admiral Geoff Cedric stood behind his command holotable, the large device displaying a holographic representation of the battlefield, accurate, three-dimensional representations of ships moving around as several blinked out of existence. He was the commander of his ship, the <i>Atropos. </i>The massive, six-kilometre beast was the newest class of battlecarrier, ships meant to combine the aspects of both a battleship and a carrier. These kinds of ships effectively had the firepower of a battleship and the fleet support ability of a carrier, making them ships to be feared indeed.<br>
<br>
Admiral Cedric placed his hand above the table, before making a grabbing motion at a group of frigates and drawing a line to engage a single CFF <i>Interjector</i>-class battlecruiser. Once that was done, Cedric stared gazed out the window to watch his frigates angle themselves and unleash a hailstorm of missiles at the two-kilometre long enemy ship, before firing a broadside of railgun rounds, and finally, their particle cannons. The combined fire was simply too much for the enemy ship to bear, as the particle beams first brought down its shields, the 300mm high-explosive hypervelocity slugs crippling it, and the missiles finishing it off.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #006600">"Enemy ship destroyed, sir."</span> Reported York, the <i>Atropos' </i>onboard AI. The miniature olive-green holographic figure of a man dressed in a World War II-era American officer's uniform was standing on the table observing the battle. <span style="color: #006600">"Eight left. We've got four <i>Halberd</i>-class frigates, two <i>Therion</i>-class destroyers, one <i>Essex</i>-class guncruiser, and their flagship, the CFF <i>Hyperion, </i>a <i>Hades</i>-class battleship." </span><br>
<br>
Cedric nodded. This battle was going well. <span style="color: #0059b3">"Double the attack. Send out a fighter screen and deploy bomber wings A-3. Fire missile pods C-4 through D-5. Target the <i>Hyperion </i>and-"</span><br>
<br>
"Sir! A ship just jumped into system!" A bridge officer cried, interrupting Cedric.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #0059b3">"What? Rebel reinforcements?"</span> Cedric asked.<br>
<br>
The officer did several checks. "No sir. It's... Heydrian." The officer sounded rather unsure himself.<br>
<br>
Admiral Cedric seemed incredulous.<span style="color: #0059b3"> "<i>Heydrian?</i> Are you sure?"</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #006600">"He's telling the truth, sir,"</span> York confirmed. <span style="color: #006600">"I've taken scans and they all turn up positive. Battleship-weight, four thousand metres. It's called the <i>Pride of Heydros, </i>a <i>Pride</i>-class supercarrier."</span> A representation of the ship appeared next to the ongoing holographic battle. Oddly enough, it resembled UEGNC vessels. Cedric took a breath.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #0059b3">"Send out a hail. Tell it to identify itself. We've got to win this battle first, then channel our focus on it."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #006600">"Yes, sir."</span> York nodded, before disappearing and sending out a hail.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #006600">"Heydrian ship <i>Pride of Heydros, </i>you are entering UEG space currently the site of a battle. Identify."</span><br>

			<dd class="first  " style="">
				Wilk stared at the battle as it unfolded. "A voice to chaos." Then the hail had come in, he yells "Natasha, open the hail."<br>
The message was heard, the Admiral could identify that Wilk was barely human at this point; he was mostly machine. "This is the Pride of Heydros, not affiliated with the Empire of Heydros. We wish to aid you in this battle." Within moments he points towards the weapons operator and he shouts in Heydrian "All missiles, target the CFF Frigates. Rail cannons, focus fire on the Hyperion, and send out several wings of bombers and interceptor escorts on the Hyperion!"<br>
<br>
Wilk says, quite joyously "Commander Wilk, its a pleasure. I wish to talk to you actually after this fight."<br>

			<dd class="between  " style="">
				Crimson Lane was always a popular place to be, it was the home of the Empire's theatrical arts, many musicals and plays that come from here are highly regarded. The famous 1st Heydrian Rifles put on many shows such as <i>Morderstwo</i>, and recently, the new comedy on Commander Wilk's betrayal called <i>Metal Man. </i>The theater was crowded of Boyars, and the lower sections, the proletariat.The show that was playing was <i>Metal Man. </i>Many proletariats were disdained by the musical, however the Boyars seemed to have loved it. Marianna was at the opening night. She didn't know how to feel about the show.<br>
<br>
After the show, she exits the theater in a rush towards the Ruby Machine bar. She enters the bar, the faces of many veterans and soldiers were turned to her. She looks for someone in particular, a ReiConess. They would be easy to spot in a bar full of Heydrians.<br>
<br>
The ReiConess was in the corner, looking at her. She walked toward the ReiConess. "Are you the..?"<br>
<br>
It replies with a nod. "ShenKi is my name. Do you have my Credits?" Marianna hands over the credits in a fashionable manner. "Thank you, Heydrian."<br>
<br>
"I can get you out of here, and into Apocrypha's Light." She nods. And they get up. "My ship is docked not too far away from here."<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>Kefalonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs<br>
Ministerial Headquarters <br>
North Promenade, Ferraria, Kefalonia<br>
</i></b>​</div>Ferraria could be compared to Paris, back on Earth, although the ancient Kefalonian city was a thousand years older and three times as large. It was a great center of the arts, music, philosophy, and religion, bedecked in the treasures that had been left to it by generations upon generations of ancestors. <br>
<br>
The Ministerial Headquarters was a massive building, almost as large as the palace, that was home to tens of thousands of offices. The grand facade was flanked on either side by a small brewery with a charming red brick edifice and on the other by a small police station and a row of townhouses. Across the street, where Velarius sat on his lunch, was an old cafe that was a favorite of the workers on the north side of the building. Between him and the Headquarters was the promenade, a cobblestone street roughly as big around as a football field packed with cars: their near-silent electric engines humming under the harsher undertones of motorists honking their horns to ward off pedestrians determined to cross. <br>
<br>
Velarius sat at a table, tea and some sort of pastry in front of him on a small ceramic plate. Across from him was his boss, Kalek Edgarov. Edgarov had been his personal friend as well as his boss for several decades, and he cast his bespectacled eyes with some concern on the tired face his friend put before him. <br>
<br>
"Tired, Vel?" <br>
<br>
"Not much sleep lately." <br>
<br>
Velarius combed his hand though his thinning blonde hair and reclined backward in his seat. <br>
<br>
"You know," Edgarov paused as he thought of what he wanted to say, "I never asked you what you did in the war but..." <br>
<br>
"I was a signal man." Velarius said, abruptly cutting him off. <br>
<br>
Perturbed, Edgarov closed that thread of conversation and endeavored to keep it closed for the time being. <br>
<br>
"I worry about you getting enough sleep. But I also worry about you getting bored in this job." <br>
<br>
"Getting bored?" Velarius' eyes popped open with curiosity. <br>
<br>
"I see this all the time with men who work office jobs. You process so many forms and faxes and emails that you just get bored of the whole process. Get locked up. Start making mistakes." <br>
<br>
"Ed, I assure you---" <br>
<br>
"No, don't apologize. It's the Ministry's fault. You haven't been put out in the field for some time. I think it's about time we got you out there and talking to some real people." <br>
<br>
Velarius was silent. <br>
<br>
"We're transferring you to our embassy on Earth. You'll be lead diplomat." <br>
<br>
His jaw fell slightly open, gobsmacked, before he remembered to reel it back in again. <br>
<br>
"Tell your wife that you leave within the week. I'm sorry for springing it on you so suddenly, but if we gave you too much time we thought you would talk yourself out of it." <br>
<br>
Edgarov stood and laid a few coins on the table as payment for both of their meals. "Take the rest of the week off, Vel. Go and get your things and get ready to move." <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><i>Later that Night<br>
Rezerzinkov Promenade<br>
Building No. 5<br>
</i></b>​</div>The rhythmic clack-clack of boots on the stone floor echoed through the vaulted chamber along with the <i>ching-ding-a-ling </i>of metal straps and gear jostling around on soldiers' backs. Velarius watched as his squad's breacher gripped his magnetic rifle tightly and peaked around the corner before rushing into the next room beyond an old doorway carved in the rocks. He disappeared for a split second before shouting, "In here! Get a look at this!" <br>
<br>
Velarius followed his squad's medic through the door, weapon drawn. Inside, he was immediately assaulted by the stench of death. He covered his face with his gloved hand. He noticed that another trooper had donned his rebreather. Before them, splayed on the ground, were the bodies of several Gorgothan priests gripping energy weapons. Their bloody remains and the positioning indicated a murder-suicide pact had been executed. <br>
<br>
Following down the corridor, the soldiers came upon more of such bodies before joining up with a larger group as they made their way into the palace ruins. Above, the force of bombs exploding shook the dirt above their heads. Before they knew it, the tunnel emptied out into the gardens behind the palace. They found themselves behind a retreating column of palace guard, which they mowed down with ease before advancing on the fleeing Gorgothans at haste. <br>
<br>
As they snaked through the gardens, resistance grew tougher as the palace guard seemed ever more eager to stall them and to die doing so. They burst into a courtyard with a pond, the water of which was red with blood of foe and friend alike. There they came upon another column of palace guard, wildly flailing their arms and exclaiming in their native tongue: "All is lost! All is lost!" A fighter-bomber swooped overhead, gunning them down ruthlessly before pulling up to assess the area for fresh targets. A crude grenade was lobbed from the other side of a hedge, and fell at Velarius's feet. He readied to kick the grenade when--- <br>
<br>
He started from his sleep in a fitful cry of anger, or fear, or lament or all three. Sitting up in his bed, he noticed his wife was not there. She was instead standing at the door, leaning against the frame in her nightgown. Her hand was over her mouth and she was crying.</div>

<b><i>Michal</i></b><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The Executor looks worried, completely frozen for a moment, he readjusts himself, gulping a breath of air. "With all due respect; the Heydrian people are attempting to industrialize! We spend most of our resources attempting to create the neo-industrial revolution. Wilk isn't in charge of the Coven front, I doubt he would betray his nation." <br>
<br>
He looks side to side. Michal takes out a small device, and displays it to the hologram. Operation: Wilk was in a big red gothic stylized font. "This is why Wilk is discharged and AWOL. He failed the mental tests he was going under. He is strong physically, a great tactician. But emotionally? He's weak. The Heydrian High Command decided to torment him, kidnap his daughter, and hide his wife from him. All so that he would become the strongest commander in the Imperium's history."<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><i>Wilk</i></b><br>
Wilk was sitting in the commander's chair, watching the chaos unfold.<br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><br>
It was many years ago, when he was separated from his family. His daughter, Marianna was just 2 years old on the day that the Heydrian High Command ordered that his daughter be kidnapped, and his wife vanished. <br>
<br>
Wilk was out in the front, fighting a battle against Coven forces. He was a young man at this time.<br>
<br>
As Wilk and his squad was leaving the jungle, heading back to the main FOB in the area. Wilk looked at his best friend; captain Borislav, his superior. "You think we'll be back before the messhall is filled?"<br>
<br>
Borislav laughs. "Yeah, you bet your Coven hatin' ass we are." He turns back to his troop "Come on, soldiers! Hurry it up! Double time!"<br>
<br>
The soldiers were enjoying themselves, singing show tunes from musicals back in Heydros. The squad arrived at the FOB. The messhall was empty. Besides one figure. The commander, Wulfric.<br>
<br>
Wulfric turned back and faced the two. "Heydrian High Command is very pleased with you two. We desire more from you in the future." He takes a cigarette and lights it, proceeding to put the cigarette into this mouth to smoke the cigarette. "You have a choice, Borislav. Arrest Wilk for treason, or be executed for Heresy against the Reverend Mother, and for treason against the state." Borislav looked at Wilk for a brief moment and turned back to face the commander. "I guess I am a hereti---" He was shot in the chest, Borislav collapses. <br>
<br>
Wilk yells out at the top of his lungs. "What the <i>FUCK</i> is this!?" Within moments, Heydrian soldiers walk into the room. The commander snickers and shouts "Submit to your destiny." The soldiers arrest Wilk.<br>
</span><br>
They took him away from everything he once had. Transformed him into a machine, a warrior.<br>
<br>
<b><i>Marianna</i></b><br>
Marianna was on her way to the Heydrian Diplomatic embassy on Earth, to find out about her father. She was flying in a civilian vessel on her way to Earth. Marianna landed, paid the ReiConess, ShenKi once more.<br>
<br>
"Thank you." She says, in a quiet mouse like way. She looked at the diplomatic center on Earth. Awestruck by the design that is so foreign to Heydrians and her. She tries to find her way to the Heydrian Embassy, lost in the confusion of the hub.</span><br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 26px"><br>
<b>THE BATTLE FOR ORAEN III; CONTACT WITH INVICTUS</b><br>
</span>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px"><b><i>Battle for Oraen III</i></b><br>
Captain Lucjan was leading his troops into the dense jungles of Oraen III, his forces were ordered to move to the hill known as "Zixmir's Pit." The name is appropriate for how often Heydrian soldiers die there. Lucjan's squad was known as the Brigands, another squadron ready for cannon fodder. The Brigands were traveling down the trail towards the hill. There has been a squadron of Vasains holding the hill for a long time, and now it was time to strike them out of that hill and push on east towards the village of Okai. Over the troops heads, a Slominski bomber drops off the payload on a spot in the jungle. Fire erupts and distant sounds of screaming along with. Lucjan didn't realize, his forces were surrounded by Coven troops.<br>
<br>
"This is the worse part." A soldier interrupts the quiet. "The calm before the storm. I can feel their beady eyes looking down at us right now..."<br>
<br>
Another soldier interrupts "We're corpses out here. We aren't going to make it out of here alive." A voice afterwards, grizzled and rough says "Damn it, focus! There more you talk the more likely the Coven are going to hear us ---" STAVKA shots. Everyone ducked to the side of the trail. Lucjan yells out "Get the flamer out here! Burn these sons of bitches out of here!"<br>
<br>
Within moments, the jungle around the squad is in flames. They stand up, firing at any running Coven troops. A living tank was moving behind them, ready to support the squad. out of the growth of the jungle's trail came a Tree Rooter, who was on fire. The Tree Rooter desperately grabs onto the Living Tank and begins to use its raw strength to remove parts of the tank.<br>
<br>
The rest of the Brigands turn to face the Tree Rooter and begin to unleash a cannonade of laser fire onto the walking tree.<br>
<br>
The tree was dead, and the calm and serenity had returned to the Brigands. "Fuck..." A soldier says out of the blue, almost welcomed the profanity. The soldiers began to collect the dead men's dogtag and place them into a backpack. The squad moves towards the Living Tank, that wasn't so living anymore. Lucjan sighs "That's the third tank down today. What the hell is wrong with this fucking jungle? Let's keep moving. Things can only get worse."<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><i>Contact with Invictus</i></b><br>
The HNS Militant was a Tsar class battleship, on it way to the north, to do some patrolling along with their rival vassal. They hadn't detected the ship that was attempting to board them, but when they did. They'd get an alarm to go off.<br>
<br>
"Damn it, we didn't notice this ancient ship, probably derelict." The captain of the HNS Militant looks at his crew. Scans reported lifeforms were on it, but couldn't detect what they were. "Send a greeting party down there."<br>
<br>
A diplomat and 6 Heydrian soldiers go to the boarded section to meet the Invictus.</span><br>

<br>
"sir, something just left the larger ship and is making its way to us"<br>
Faustus's eyes widened<br>
"is it a projectile of some sort, are they attacking us?"<br>
Faustus thought about their position for a moment, the journey had just begun it couldn't end now, he was about to order his gunners to take aim when he was interrupted by<br>
"sir it appears to be a smaller vessel of some kind and their heading to our boarding area"<br>
just as the legionary finished his sentence the two ships docked, all they had to do now was open the door<br>
"let us go meet these diplomats, there cant be that many of them judging by the size of the vessel so if its pirates under a guise we stand a good chance"<br>
<br>
Faustus took some of his best men with him to the docking area, if this was the first contact with the wider galaxy the Legion made, he would be famous.<br>
they all stood there in front of the airlock, they stood ready to take on these new people, and with the flick of a switch the airlock opened revealing 6 humans, or at least what appeared to be humans<br>
Faustus was confused at first, these men wore no armor, only long coats and they carried no swords only bizarre things at their waists<br>
Either way, Faustus took a bow and said<br>
<br>
"Salutem ex nobis invictus legionis es?"<br>

</span></span></u><br>
<span style="color: #404040"><span style="font-size: 15px">For the longest the the Cataphract have always been open eyes to all they own, destroyed or abandon, it was always under there eyes. Sentient beings of both Metal and Flesh, a combination close to surpass organic beings and the union of two of great difference. A clear advantage from the organics...but being machine and bones...brings nightmares in its name and the Cataprhact have one enemy that share there traits. Drones flew and investigated the torn system, one of the drones flew close to what seem a large torn wreckage of a medium size vessel, it was hard to even correctly identified it as its gold and white have turn to ash and still glowing ember. But something was odd, organic signatures could be detected and such the drone send out a small signal only to call 6 more small drones to its location as they began to investigate. Something was not right.<br>
<br>
<i>Back at trinity</i><br>
<br>
In the control room of the green planet trinity the operators of the room soon resive the odd report from the drone group and would speak.</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: #b35900"><b>"Um...Sir we are detecting life signatures inside one of the wreckage of memory"</b></span></span><br>
<span style="color: #404040"><span style="font-size: 15px">King Valor and the high council would be open ears as Valor would stand beside the operator and wonder what it is, live feed was coming in from the drones, it flew inside the wreckage through one of the massive cracks in its hull. Nothing odd, only twisted metal and destroyed engineering but soon, a image of what seem a large, glowing, pulsating organic bulge was clearly visible as it is attached to the ships inner hull. It was massive, the size of a modern school buss, glowing bright red and resonating quickly.</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: #b35900"><b>"What in the name of the Derelict is that?"</b></span><br>
<u><b><span style="color: #b3b300">"...Its the Pulse"</span></b></u></span><br>
<span style="color: #404040"><span style="font-size: 15px">Valor softly spoke as he vanished and appeared back on the golden platform and yelled at full metallic voice.</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: #b3b300"><b><u>"Attention! We have detected Pulse signature! Operator, do whatever it takes to prevent that DAM thing from spreading from here! Council I am aware we have sent a destroyer to dock here at Trinity?"</u></b></span><br>
<span style="color: #59b300"><b>"Yes king Valor, Fully armed, you want-"</b></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><b><u>"Yes, complete extermination is vital"</u></b></span><br>
<span style="color: #59b300"><b>"Understood, I will order preparation for departure"</b></span></span><br>
<span style="color: #404040"><span style="font-size: 15px"><br>
The High council would begin to issue command to prepare a Orokin class destroyer for departure towards Memory, not the strongest ship but one that would take care of the job of cleaning the mess. The operator from his side would withdraw all drones commission in memory to "Destruct" any organic matter that spreads from the wreckage as they do with matter, zapping it away slowly till the destroyer arrives.<br>
The Pulse, A natural enemy to the Cataphract, enemies who are once there brother slowly begging to be corrupted after so long being "Abandoned". Being both machine and organic, there machine state slowly degrades and grows wrong while its organic rots away and mutate, giving birth to "The Pulse" former Cataphract who have degraded over time, becoming feral "Machines".<br>
<br>
<i>Back at Memory</i><br>
<br>
Small drones soon arrived in small groups to the wreckage of the ship, zapping away organic mass as the large "Tumor" began to beat heavily, like a heart. Waves of fragmentation energy pulse from the organic mass for each beat, slowly growing stronger in wave. Hence why they are called Pulse, these degraded machines emit fragmentation energy like that of warp. Known to suddenly vanish and hide for long times or to call in fully formed Pulse to protect these Tumors. The Tumors are the heart of new and old mass colonies and are what keep the matter alive, such the Pulse protect it but yet the one they found seems to be...Defenseless.<br>
<br>
(Information will HEAVILY be updated so stay tune and as well with new NPC Faction, "The Pulse" Savage once former Cataphract beings who have degraded and only wish to Consume, Enhance and Replicate.)</span></span>​</div></div>

However, if you really want to know, then I suppose I could provide you some insight."</span> The AI turned and began to walk down a corridor with several large windows lining the side, which showed the bustling Beacon City outside. He motioned for them to follow with a quick gesture of his head.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">"Gardner's off discussing the recent spew of rebel attacks in nearby systems."</span> He explained. <span style="color: #b30000">"The Tribute Council has been talking about increasing planetary security over the past few weeks, which is why there was so much security detail outside."</span> He cocked his head out the window, showing numerous drones patrolling the area. A GMP-341 Firestorm Gunship drifted past, its repulsor engines glowing blue, the sunlight glinting off its metal body and railguns.<br>
<br>
A holographic screen appeared next to Gideon, this one showing a news report, along with several images showing a burning building, military vehicles, and two groups of humans both dressed head to toe in powered armour engaging in a fierce firefight. The newspaper headline read '<i>Recent rebel attacks: Are the colonies safe?</i>'.<span style="color: #b30000"> "As you can see here, rebel groups have already taken hold of several Outer Colonies, the colonies furthest away from Earth. Groups like the Colonial Freedom Front here have a large number of fighters, and tech able to go against the UEG."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">"If case you don't already know, the Colonial Rebellion, which was a period of undeclared civil war that started in 2588, boiled over after the end of the Vaskran War and officially became known as the Colonial Uprising, official civil war. We've been fighting for what, almost a decade now." </span>He paused. <span style="color: #b30000">"Nine years, seven months, and thirteen days, to be exact."</span> The screens disappeared.<span style="color: #b30000"> "This is exactly why it's crucial to protect diplomats like you.

Rogues? Traitors?"</span> He paused when this 'Commander Wilk' (A decorated commander and a 'living tank', apparently) declared that he wished to aid the UEG in the battle. "Commander Wilk, if you fire, that would mark you an enemy of both the Colonial Freedom Front and the Coalition of Free Colonies, along with many more supporting their cause."<br>
<br>
His warning was apparently ignored, as the <i>Pride </i>immediately opened fire on the rebel ships, immediately bringing down two frigates and damaging the <i>Hyperion's </i>shields with its complement of missiles and railguns. The confused rebels immediately wildly returned fire. Using the distraction, Cedric pushed forwards. <span style="color: #0059b3">"All ships, fire at will! Take out the remaining rebel scum!" </span><br>
<br>
The ships of Battlecarrier Group Nevada did as ordered, firing away at the enemy ships, hundreds of missiles and railgun rounds streaking through space. The massed fire of the entire fleet obliterated the rebel ships and caused each one of them to either explode into a massive fireball, or break into several pieces and burn up in atmosphere.<br>
<br>
The final ship that was still alive was the <i>Hyperion. </i>It seemed as if its captain was determined to make a last stand, as it fired every single one of its weapons at the <i>Atropos. </i>Hundreds of missiles were launched in unison, and it fired its remaining railgun batteries not damaged during the battle, before unleashing its two particle cannons. The combined munitions would have outright plowed through any UEG ship.<br>
<br>
That wasn't the case for the <i>Atropos, </i>as it was the newest class of warship in the UEGNC. A grid of glowing blue hexagons flared to life, the missiles and rounds detonating harmlessly against it, and the particle beams dissipated upon hitting the ship's gigaton-rated shields.<br>
<br>
In retaliation, the <i>Atropos' </i>particle cannons began to glow red, before twin beams erupted out, going straight through both the <i>Hyperion's </i>shields and hull, coming out the other end. The CFF flagship's guns went quiet for a few seconds, before the entire thing went up in an explosion that was brighter than the system's sun. Then it was gone, nothing left but pieces of metal, and space was quiet once more.<br>
<br>
The crews of every UEG ship immediately broke into wild cheers as aerospace craft performed celebratory rolls, before they returned to their parent ships.<br>
<br>
Cedric smiled as he claimed his seventeenth victory against rebel forces this year and closed his eyes in a quiet celebration. Then he opened them again and decided he had more pressing matters at hand.<br>
<br>
Namely, the rogue Heydrian ship.<br>
<br>
He opened up a channel to the ship.<span style="color: #0059b3"> "This is Admiral Geoff Cedric of the UEGNC. Commander Wilk, you mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?"</span><br>

Valvet was walking through the thin and narrow streets of alpha to meet up with her client waving through the crowd and avoiding any shady looking characters. Her ears were being pounded by both the music blasting off  in the clubs and the loud echos of clangs of industrial work in the distance. She wasnt a newcomer to alpha and she had been here for about a week, she had friends and associates all over the place and she knew where to avoid. Standing out a bit with a bright pink jacket she wore simple UEG wear underneath, she walked into a club and went straight to the bar to order a few drinks.<span style="color: #00ffff"> "Give me something smooth, and fruity, lots of ice"</span> The bartender nodded knowing exactly what to get, then Valvet turned around to take a look at the scene. The club was awash in neon lights and loud electric music that drowned the ears so much it would be hard to eavesdrop on any conversations. Her little observation of the club was quickly interrupted by the bartender who settled her drink down.<span style="color: #00ffff"> "Thank you"</span> winking at the bar tender she took a sip of the drink and started to ponder about why she was there.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff0000">"Agent Valvantine, we want you to infiltrate one of the United Earth Governments rebel factions, and relay us information on their situation. Work for them, find out what they know, their weaknesses and if you can weaken the UEG itself, gain power from within. We will not be able to help you on this mission you are assigned, understood?"</span> Valvantine saluted.<span style="color: #00ffff"> "Yes sir, i did not volunteer without knowing the risks" </span>She looked up at the Strageos with pride and honor. <span style="color: #ff0000">"Good, May Ewther guide you and Irus to grant you fortune. Remember, no one knows about this, aside from the mother of course."</span> Valventine nodded, do whatever she can to destabilize the rebels and possibility become the ruler of the new UEG under the imperium<br>
<br>
But of course, there were cavats to everything, and with a mission so broad without so many specifics Valvet had to get creative she would have to use methods that the strageos would not agree with and would certainly get her convicted and killed but no one had know about it. Taking another sip of her fruity drink she glanced over at the entrance of the club waiting for her Colonial Freedom Front clientele.<br>

<b>Diplomacy with UEG<br>

But Tlur wasnt the one to assume, he liked to know the truth and to be blunt about his intentions, but of course he was careful as to who he tells. Otherwise he wouldn't be a diplomat. <span style="color: #a64dff">"The imperium may help your people in your conflict against the rebels."</span> Tlur bowed to the AI <span style="color: #a64dff">"Aside from simple resources and only on your leaders behalf of course"</span> Indeed a weakened ally was more of a liability but the imperium accepts all, and that includes her allies, The humans of the UEG will inevitably convert to Heldrilism of course, as it seemed they are feeling the wraith of Zixmir.<br>

<span style="color: #b30000">The Diplomat and the guards stare at the roman styled travelers. In galactic standard, they muse abit and ask <u>"Are you guys.. going to a convention? A Human reenactment troop?"</u></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><br>
Faustus was silent for a moment <u>"sorry what?"</u> the crew all looked at each other <u>"we are the invictus legion, sent on the orders of our emperor"</u></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">Betwixt, the Heydrians look to each other. <u>"Do you ... are you..."</u><br>
<u>"What are your orders?"</u></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><u>"our orders are to conquer new worlds and expand our empire"</u> Faustus said in a commanding tone.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><u>"Yeah, yeah. You got any ... proof of your... empire? Your ship looks pretty ... outdated..."</u></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><u>"outdated?" </u>Faustus seemed almost insulted <u>"the gods themselves provided us these vessels"</u></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">He doesn't want to reply to the statement. A brief pause, then he says <u>"Well, uh... how are you going to expand with... equipment like that?"</u></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><br>
Again Faustus was struck with a puzzled look <u>"you seem to be under-dressed, where is your Armour, your swords?" </u>as  he crossed his arms</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">He just stares. <u>"We don't need armor, nor do we need swords. Its been thousands of year since that sort of technology was used."</u></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300">The whole crew was struck with silence at first, then they began to whisper, whisper about what horrors could await them<u> "Silence!"</u> Faustus yelled <u>"oh really? then what types of weapons are used now?"</u></span><br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><br>
<u>"We can show you."</u></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><br>
Faustus gripped the handle of his shield, as did his crew</span><br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><br>
<u>"Not on you guys!"</u><br>
<u>He sighs. "We'll show it to you on ... dummies."</u></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><u>"I...see"</u> Faustus loosed his grip on his shield, <u>"well then show us these weapons that out match ours</u></span><u>"</u><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><u>"Follow me." </u>He turns and walks back inside of the small Heydrian vessel, towards the HNS Militant</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><u>"So be it"</u> he beckons some of his men to stay behind, he goes with his trusted signifer and  another legionnaire <u>"let us see what the future holds"</u><br>
the two men follow him</span><br>
<br>
<br>
on the HNS Militant, One of the Heydrian guards follows them and the diplomat. They arrive at a barracks, next to the barracks a firing range<br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><br>
one of the Heydrian guards whispers to the others <u>"should we report this?"</u></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">The guard he was whispered to nods his head.<br>
Another guard, who was doing the presentation, takes his STAVKA Type 1<br>
The guard aims down, and awaits the diplomat. <u>"See, this is a STAVKA Type 1. A firearm which is used to render targets dead from a distance."</u></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><br>
<u>"how will your crossbow fire without a lath or string?"</u><br>
the signifer asks</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><u>"Fire at the target."</u> He says in response.<br>
The guard fires, the red laser beam pews out from the barrel<br>
The target, made of wood, is burnt</span><br>

<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">One of the guards sneers quietly in the background upon hearing the phrase</span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><br>
Faustus hears him <u>"what is it that thou finds funny?"</u> he snaps at the guard</span><br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><br>
The guard coughs dismissing it</span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><br>
Faustus looks at the burnt target <u>"all you did was point and shoot"</u> he pauses <u>"that needs no skill"</u></span><br>
<span style="color: #b30000"><br>
Another guard spoke out <u>"it isnt too different from throwing spears"</u></span><br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"><br>
<u>"A spear requires training as does the bow,if you came from Domitus you would know"</u> Faustus places his hand on his sword pommel<br>

The diplomat asks</span><br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>HMS Raskolnikov <br>
Kefalonian Freighter <br>
Fringes of Invictus Empire Space<br>
</i></b>​</div>The <i>Raskolnikov</i> was a merchantman of the Kefalonian <i>Rumkov</i>-class, the vessel was long with a wide berth and either end of its rectangular body was capped with long spires that served as signal towers and turrets for light anti-ship weaponry. The <i>Raskolnikov</i> was not on a mission of war, however, but one of trade. The planetary governor of the nearby world had recently signed an agreement with the Kefalonian shipping firm "Plotov and Sons" opening up a lucrative shipping lane for his planet and giving them access to a greater variety of wares. <br>
<br>
Kefalonia was a known entity in the Empire, although formal contact had not been established. Traders had been doing business for generations in isolated incidents, but this was the first time that an official deal had been struck with a Kefalonian exporter. In time, perhaps, this would bring the attention of the Emperor to this fringe world. <br>
<br>
Below the cargo hold of the ship were several cells, small and barebones, with only a bed, a sink, a mirror for shaving, and a small watercloset. A small lightbulb swung back and forth on a wire from the overhead as Proctor Weklan Remov held his silver necklace in his hand. The necklace bore the shape of a saint, specifically St. Helgeria of Alexandros: patron saint of travelers. The Proctor wore a black, longsleeved shirt that buttoned to one side, and a simple pair of black slacks and spacer boots. A red belt and pin with the Church's insignia on it designated him as part of the clergy. As he swung the necklace back and forth in his fingers, the door swung open. Proctress Almetia entered and shut the door. She was short for a Kefalonian, red hair contrasting her deathly pale complexion, and her uniform identical to his. <br>
<br>
"The Captain says we're almost there. We'll be exiting hyperspace soon. Do you know what to expect?" She sat down on the bed beside him. <br>
<br>
Remov placed the necklace back in his pocket, sighed, and shrugged his shoulders. "These people are said to be barbarous, pagans, and living in unconscionable sin." He said softly. "It is very likely we will be expelled, or worse. But that was always a risk of the Calling." <br>
<br>
The Proctess was silent for a moment. "I don't fear death, I fear that I might do a disservice to these people." <br>
<br>
He patted her hand reassuringly. "Come now, you are one of the brightest pupils I have ever seen. Remember, we went to seminary together." <br>
<br>
"I remember, Brother." <br>
<br>
He stood and walked to the mirror, examining the gaunt, hatchetlike features of his face. <br>
<br>
"Leave me, if you would kindly. Summon me again when we have arrived at the spaceport." <br>
<br>
The Proctress stood and bowed her head reverently and he returned the bow. Looking down into the sink as she left, he ran his hand under the water and washed his face. Reborn, a man of the Invictus Empire. He went back to his bed, took the necklace back from his pocket, and resumed his prayer. <br>
<br>
<i>"Almighty Maker give me strength <br>
To accept death or a higher toll<br>
For my fellow man <br>
That they might hear the thunder<br>
Of your just voice and mercy" <br>
</i><br>

Daerys turned away from the screen, adjusting the panels and walls to accommodate the Orokin better. His ears laid back as the ceiling plates descended into the voluminous phantasmagoria the Umbra crafted and stored of the Servyus' past. Settling as pond water, the phantasmagoria settled, binding with the molding plates. A physical response was given to the dream. Focusing on position, the Umbra brushed it aside for the moment, lashing his wing carefully and elegantly. On cue, a crystal descended as an angel, softly brushing the curling air that raced around the chamber. The cheers and calls of the wind chanted all around the room. The apex crystal twirled, emitting projections in energy waves. The waves bounced off walls as foamy ocean waves, singing as spirits drinking on the living. Cloaked in black jackets, covering to the feet; six advisors rose from the wave. A figment of energy, but nonetheless, the weary would mistake. Daerys smoked out dark fire to touch the chambers, leaving the room almost black.<br>
<br>
The farthest to the left stepped forward, stepping upon a pedestal. Her six arms folded into a triangle, softly. As she rose from the pedestal's ascension, she opened her eyes and released her hood from her head. Faint lights inside of her mechanical body showed her presence. Her face was flat, resembling one a human would wear as a helmet. Yet, it was smooth and positioned two teal eyes. Her jacket seemed loose as if the size was too grand. However, she stepped carefully, steadying herself to speak. Her projecting image widened, showing thousands of civilian ships, leaving the dock and waiting at the edge of space. Multiple lines of civilians waited behind her, scanning koldirai crystals and boarding the remaining vessels. Roughly the size of a Bastion, the ships had little weaponry and held large amounts of viewing space. Faintly, multiple fleets of military vessels stood by in a triangular formation. She spoke softly, <span style="color: #ff00ff">"The Expedition to the Ultoras sector lives for your service. The unemployed and poor of our worlds have trained and prepared, as well as volunteers. Five Billion have prepared to colonize the sited worlds. Such, my absence will be grave and grand citing a sectoral capital being my return. Nexus, as selected. A plan of colonization beeneth sent to you, my Umbra, and the Volum. Worlds closest to the border will be colonized last, leaving time to incorporate a Dynax gate to the sectorial transport system. Projected mining and manufacturing systems shall be settled by that time. A new armada of defensive fleets will accompany the expedition."<br>
</span><br>
The Umbra nodded, "The plan proposed is logical. Note that conflict with the Kefalon Empire is likely, so it may be minded that caution prevails within you. Support be resumed after the victory."<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff00ff">"Awaiting approval of the Volum, the expedition shall proceed then on. Thank you, my Umbra."</span><br>
<br>
"Shadow guide you, my daughter." She turned around, letting her image condense into an orb of orange light. The next advisor jumped high to the pedestal, his body resembled that of a dire wolf. The jacket had been adjusted to his form, concealing most of him still. He wagged his metal tail as he looked up and removed his hood. His armored face encircled the profile of his body. Speaking as grease lightning and a relentless assault.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff0000">"Recent conflict with the Moon Scythes have suffered light losses. The planetary shield held against their focused fire until a defense fleet could surprise them. Their sensors seem to miss our signatures due to our unique technologies. Weapon data from the skirmish have given great insight. A new shield prototype can be installed onto participating fleets at your command. Stasis gem weaponry is ready to be installed on Osos now, my Umbra. The conflict ahead will be the testing grounds for these weapons. Crews have been briefed on how to use them and their effects."</span><br>
<br>
The Umbra nodded, slowly moving multiple pieces of obsidian to shelves. "Continue, what is the progress of the missile silos and investigations?"<br>
<span style="color: #ff0000"><br>
"The missile silos have been captured, two thousand humans have been killed in the combat. Only one hundred Servyus suffered death, no injuries. The payload of the silos could single-handily make our war with the Kefalons a skirmish. They are threatened with civil war, multiple ships have deserted to support the rebels. Striking now will lend us advantages, yet our rim worlds should be our focus. Any damage to our infrastructure would slow us down from expanding. Multiple officials have notified me of the expansions the Republic is pursuing. We need to be cautious in the damages we take."</span><br>
<br>
"Consider, I shall. However, King Darius shall not attack. He will defend to carve us to end it. Survival is his goal." The Umbra looked to the ceiling of the chamber, "Fire the payloads at the gateway world of Atterax, then eliminate military installations. Speaking with Darius is pointless."<br>
<br>
"Yes, my Umbra. Be done."<br>
<br>
The Umbra smiled, "I know you will, dear brother. Visit me on the Vector to the Heavens soon. We've much to speak of." The Umbra's brother rose like a howl before vanishing. Daerys turned around as the next teleported to the pedestal.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #00ff00">"Greetings, major progress. Destination control is inadequate. However, matrix generators perfected and ready for the minimum load."</span> Vanishing, the faceless hollow of a Servyus vanished. Longer limbs than any the Umbras had seen. However, his guests were soon to arrive. The remaining projections laid dormant in an energy cube on Daerys's shelf, softly waiting. Focusing, the chambers drew eerie as fog crept in, darkness misted across the diamond room. Cities, heroes, technologies, and ships laid visible. The display returned to view. A table and chair molded out of the plates, ready for his guests. A simple projection of dots of light gave lighting for them, showing the etchings of past Umbras on the panels of the walls. Their portraits are hidden in the Umbronic plane.<br>
<br>
As Hate approached, the Umbra smiled, placing a red crystal on the table. Eyes sharpened, ears tucked back. Back plates condensed, as music played in the background.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">~Before Hate's Arrival~</span><br>
<br>
As the Orokin's ships approached, the Eluditict Pylon surrounded them. As a grace and a shadow, the sleek curves and edges mystified the hull and floor plan of the ship. Sizing at one-third the size of the Jupiter, the "Vector to the Heavens" stricken others as a Seraphim among the worlds in appearance and utility. Inspiring in design, the ship hummed with delight. Wings searched out, looking for space to entertain and secure. On the cornerstones of the wings, twin crystals laid in beacon foundations, streaming energy across the ship in iridescent colors. Debris moved in, meeting a wave of energy from these crystals. Stamping them off with repulse force. Nothing entered afterward. Wyvern Servyus from the ship would fly out to reclaim these scraps for repair of the fleet. Temporarily stored ships rose to the fleet from Zinyix, following suit with the curtain formation.<br>
<br>
Looking closer, streaks of color rode throughout. A texture of gas and free as Americans on the Fourth of July, the colors added depth to the hull, where most ships seem to lack. All across the ship, there were weapons that gave ornament and style. Evidence of the Servyus's purpose in glamorous lethality. Side weapons rested in swarms of shards, that would collect together to form the Altos Tachyon weapons, shooting Tachyon diamonds with chains that pull the diamond into the target. A nose gun for a fighter inside of a pocket. The hangar to the left stared back at them, taller than two capital ships. The upside-down triangle shape was bordered with weak gravity well to keep the processed atmosphere inside of the mega-capital ship. The Orokin's ship passed through easily. Once inside, they noticed the seemingly endless hanger space above them, and the inter ship portals to store smaller craft. <br>
<br>
As Hate and his escort left their ship, they were greeted by two Servyus whom used a swarm of smaller nanobots to scan the contains on them. Not invasive, nothing was taken. Slowly, they guided Hate to the hallways where they guided him to the Umbra. On a large lobby like area, Yagdra stood by. He nodded to the Servyus guides first before reaching his hand out to shake Hate's hand. Yagdra had much of a brutish body, lean and tall. His head was spiky, with a decorative paint of ash and lava over his body. A pair of shards extruded from his shoulders, highlighting the plates that shadowed over the connection between arm and shoulder. Yagdra was nothing like the others, which isn't shocking. Passing sixty Servyus, the Orokin would notice how little in appearance and many areas individuals had. However, the race had a great sense of commonality and unity that seemed amplified by the creative diversity each individual had. <br>

As Hate would naturally accept, Yagdra spoke elegantly. "So you must be our new contacts," He flipped a Ultimas, an energy coin, in his other hand calmly. "Welcome aboard the Vector to the Heavens, a ship commemorated to the first Umbra of our Republic, Hunhow. Whom is out on diplomatic expeditions as we speak. He was one of the first philosophers of our species. Now, I'd imagine you would wonder. Our species is middle-aged from our understanding of others. Being purely what humans call "Mechanical" has helped us progress faster than some would expect. As such, Hunhow is four and a half millenniums in age, and he moves as much as you would expect from me being barely twenty."<br>
<br>
Yagdra paused, "I'm Yagdra, grandson of the Umbra. He asked me to give you these glasses to wear. It will help you see the spectacle he has for you in the Umbronic plane. A plane of this world we use for a multitude of purposes." Yagdra handed them all a pair, crystal lenses naturally. He pressed his hands into the door, creating a portal to Daerys's chambers. Once everyone stepped through, Yagdra jumped up to Daerys's shoulders. Daerys towered over everything, the size of Smaug with the full complement of dragon powers. <br>
<br>
Daerys calmly stretched his wings, "Sit down friend, we have much to discuss!"<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b><span style="font-size: 22px">The Kefalonian Freighter </span></b><br>
<span style="font-size: 15px">The air was still around the camp, slaves and legionnaires preparing it for their visitors, these traders who would be arriving to this world within the hour to trade goods.<br>
<br>
"Ave Claudius!" exclaimed a voice from the distance, Claudius rose from his chair, he was a Decanus who would dare to simply call him like some mongrel pup.However as the man came closer he saw his good friend Paulus "Ha, well met Paulus!" it had been some time, almost 4 months since he had last seen his childhood friend "Its been far too long, come and sit"<br>
<br>
He passed his friend a cup of wine.The two sat down to drink for there was no Centurion around to punish them for drinking on the job, mainly because he had fallen ill and in turn was unable to patrol the camp and subsequently making Claudius the man of highest rank within the camp, "So you'll be the one greeting the traders?" Paulus asked with a slightly condescending but jovial tone, "I shall and thank Saturn that something is happening on this rock, I've been so bored I've resorted to juggling wine cups to keep my sanity" he said, taking a large sip of wine.<br>
<br>
"These traders Claudius, what do we know of them?" Paulus asked in a much more serious tone, "Not much" he responded "But i know they don't worship the pantheon gods" Really? Paulus asked, leaning closer to Claudius "Yes and from what i hear there rather serious about it" Paulus leaned back again and just as he did a guard called for them from outside the tent, "Sir, the traders ship is in the sky and is currently making its way down to land!" The two men rose up form their seats and made their way to the landing area "Its time to become heralds of the future" Claudius said.<br>
<br>
By the time the men made it to the landing area the ship was ready to meet them, a group of people emerged from the large vessel, some of these men were gaunt with somewhat sharp features apart from one woman, blazing red hair and skin like snow, Claudius thought she was rather beautiful, he took a moment to look at himself, his skin was a somewhat dark beige, his hair a dirty blonde. He gave a bow "Ave, welcome to the planet of Tullius we are honored to receive you" he said with a proud tone "I am Claudius, this camps Decanus, if you would follow me to my tent we can begin our exchange"<br>
<br>
The group followed the legionnaires through the camp, Paulus could tell they were uncomfortable, surrounded by primitive men and their slaves, once they reached the tent Claudius beckoned them inside and ordered a slave to fetch them some wine "So what does the Kefalonian empire want with us?"<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>The Trade Agreement<br>
</i></b>​</div>The party that had been sent to finalize the negotiation consisted of five people. Three of them were men, two were women. Two of the men and one of the women were dressed in leather jackets over some sort of formfitting jumpsuit made of a durable material with thigh-high boots that buckled to the legs of the jumpsuits. These were what Kefalonians called "spacers." They were professional space travellers. One of them, the tallest man who wore glasses and a peaked cap, carried with him a bundle of papers tied in a burgundy colored leather portfolio. <br>
<br>
Behind the three spacers walked the other man and woman, both dressed in all black save for their red belts, and the pins on their breasts that bore a picture of a stylized sun laid under the image of an open book. They had quiet demeanors and were easily identified as some kind of clergy. <br>
<br>
Upon entering the tent, the Captain spoke first. He put his hand out to shake. <br>
<br>
"My name is Captain Yurov. The question is not what the Kefalonian Empire wants with you, but what Plotov and Sons Shipping Incorporated wants with you." <br>
<br>
He found a table and laid out his portfolio, taking several documents out written in Latin and Kefalonian. The Kefalonians were usually polite business partners in that they usually made the effort of using the regional language instead of Standard. <br>
<br>
"According to our manifest, the governor of this planet placed an order for a few odds and ends, some food supplies and medicine. But more importantly he wanted us to come with the official agreement that allows Plotov and Sons to do business here. So here it is." <br>
<br>
He slid the document closer to Paulus to allow him to read it and set a pen down on the table. "We just need the signature of the highest ranking government official. I presume that is you." <br>
<br>
As the Captain talked to Paulus, the other Kefalonians looked around. One of them cupped their hand over their mouth so as not to smell the unwashed soldiers. The two priests merely stood, before the woman turned to the man and started conversing softly in Kefalonian. They could have been talking about anything: insulting their hosts or talking about sports. <br>

Paulus had finished reading the documents and explained the terms to Claudius, "We thank you for taking the time to produce these in Latin, we appreciate little things like that" Paulus said with a jovial tone "We believe that these terms are most satisfactory and we shall instruct our slaves to begin moving your cargo" the two Decanuses signed their names on the paper.<br>
<br>
All the while a slave makes his way around the room offering each of the five people wine as well as some grapes."Your people don't deal in slavery do they?" Claudius exclaimed, not so much a question but more of a statement.There were a few other legionnaires in the tent who were looking at the traders, just to make sure they didn't try anything. After all this is the first time these men had even seen people from another world. <br>
<br>
Paulus once again turned to Captain Yurov "May Plutus smile upon this agreement" there was a small and awkward pause "Ah, pardon me i forgot you do not worship our gods" He paused yet again for a moment as if he was thinking then he clicked his fingers "A gift" he took his pugio from his belt and passed the dagger to the captain "Its a show of good will for one man of high rank to give his dagger to another" Paulus looked at the men in robes for a moment and then turned his attention to the Kefalonians talking to each other, he mumbled something to himself in Latin.<br>
<br>
"Well if there's anything else we can do for you before you depart do not hesitate to ask" Claudius said "If not, then we thank you for opening trade with us, you should also know that if his holiness the Emperor views this to be a specifically good trade deal, he may want to extend it further"<br>

</div></div>Kela was on top of one of the large mushroom trees staring into the dark sky above wondering just how many humans had any psionic potential or not. It was a well known fact in the imperium that most humans didnt even have a silver of psionic talent unlike the large hydra and the ReiConess. However there were a few exceptions, like her, there were a few other humans in her particular section of the Swords of Ewther but they were few and far between. She herself only stubbled upon another human two years after she was recruited. Everyone else was either ReiConess or a Siguras, as the hydras were in their own sect. The Jagkusar were even more rare, and in their own sect as well. Sighing Kela dropped from the luminescent mushroom using her psionics to soften her fall, the dirt beneath her flew upward in a cloud of brown. She then started walking back to her base, and home about two kilometers away through a forest of mushrooms natural bridges, pathways and a river of some glowing liquid classified as "safe to drink" but kela didnt dare even touch the stuff.<br>

We've been trying to contact your transponder for half an hour by now!"</span> Kela looked up at Jak'Chal out of her usual daydreaming state and her eyes widened when he told her. <span style="color: #00ff00">"w-what?"</span> She checked her transponder which hadn't notified her (cough RPN)<span style="color: #00ff00"> "I-i dont think its working..."</span> Jak put a hand on his forehead.<span style="color: #0080ff"> "Well can't do anything it now, theres a briefing in the auditorium right now. lets go!"</span> he turned around and started floating rather fast gesturing her to follow.<span style="color: #00ff00"> "A-a briefing for what?" </span>She started to follow in a jog but Jak didnt respond to her question. When they got to the auditorium Kela slowly cringed when NeiFerius stopped and looked at her. <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"Ah, Kela, nice for you to join us," </span><span style="color: #00ff00">"hehe..."</span> She immediately went to sit down somewhere. <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"Someone will come brief you after,"</span> Her voice was slightly irritated and her flat nose twitched a little, signaling to Kela that she was definitely mad.<br>

You have permission to fire upon them but only if you were fired upon."</span> The entire room became quiet except for a random person thinking outloud. "These heretics probably summoned the demon." Everyone chuckled but Kela remained quiet. If she remembered from ethnics class the Kefalonians were humans like her, she didnt like the idea of shooting another human or any of the races within the imperium. <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"Alright! Everyone get to your staging rooms and put on your equipment! we leave in two hours" </span><br>
<br>
After a while of dressing up in her armor and making sure all her things were counted for, she walked onto the hangers where there were a two transports and people being loaded onto them 50 each. getting into it she squeezed between Jak'Chal and Mininite.<span style="color: #00ff00"> "So, nervous?"</span> <span style="color: #0080ff">"probably"</span> <span style="color: #b35900">"A little"</span> Smiling at their responses they felt the transport start to go up into the atmosphere and into  presumably, a Shenra Cruiser. Then the feeling of FTL swept over her and after a few hours of chill time and waiting in the hanger of the cruiser they finally popped back into realspace with smaller transport distributing 17 squads per planet. (there were three planets, five person each squad)<br>
<br>
When Kela's transport made land fall she got out along with her squad onto what seemed like a rocket barren world. <span style="color: #00ff00">"It doesnt seem like anythings here"</span> Kela thought out loud. But soon enough her Sensor picked something up. <span style="color: #80ff00">"You need to get your senses checked kela."</span> Jack another squadmate, human, tapped her shoulder and started walking off to the direction of the anomaly. She growled at him a little but shook the feeling away. sighing she followed him with the others in tow.<br>

<br>
"Thank you for your time, sir. And, if it is all the same we have forklifts and other vehicles for moving the cargo. Your <i>workers</i> need not busy themselves with it." <br>
<br>
Captain Yurov turned to the two clergymen, "Now these two are from the Church, and they've come on a separate matter unrelated to my trade deal. My job being done, I'll excuse myself." <br>
<br>
The spacers all bowed their heads respectfully and left the tent, leaving only the tall, thin Proctor and the beautiful redheaded Proctress. One of them carried a book with an ornate symbol on the cover that he couldn't quite make out. The other carried a necklace with a small statuette of a woman attached at one end that he dangled off his right hand. <br>
<br>
The man stepped forward. "Forgive me for forgetting my introductions. I am Proctor Remov." <br>
<br>
He stuck his free hand out to shake. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>Of Quantum Anomalies and Eldritch Horrors<br>
</i></b>​</div>The Ministry of Quantum and Extra-Dimensional Anomalies was located in the same building as the Ministry of Defense, a large government office building on the southern side of Ferraria. Aliskar Edderov punched in his time as he walked past the double doors and into the main offices where the incessant <i>click-click-click-clack-click </i>of typewriters and teletype machines made it hard to think. As he walked to his desk, one of the secretaries commented on his new suit: black double-breasted jacket, grey vest, and grey slacks. He thanked her and sat down at his neighboring desk and began to leaf through the papers that had been left on it. <br>
<br>
Mostly just useless reports, except for a handwritten note that read: <br>
<br>
<i>Meet me in the lounge for tea. Something important is going on. -K <br>
</i><br>
The "K" was Eusovos Klarov, his immediate superior. Standing, he opened the desk drawer and tucked the plasma revolver and several microfusion cells into his holster and jacket respectively. He then caught the elevator down to the second floor lounge. <br>
<br>
Waiting for him, the middle-aged Kefalonian man was holding a newspaper close to his face with a steaming hot cup of tea in his free hand. <br>
<br>
"Anything interesting this morning, K?" <br>
<br>
Klarov shook his head and put down the paper. "Not particularly. But I've got an assignment for you." <br>
<br>
"Let me guess, clearing another poltergeist." <br>
<br>
"No, no ghost stuff. Real, genuine, extradimensional baddies. You in?" <br>
<br>
Edderov did a double-take. "Oh, it's that serious?" <br>
<br>
"Yes. We're putting together a team. It will be you, a psychic, a priest, and three ex-military." <br>
<br>
"Why the priest?" <br>
<br>
"Moral support? I don't know. We work closely with the Church and they insisted on sending someone. Perhaps they'll prove useful." <br>
<br>
"So when do we ship off?" <br>
<br>
"Right now, lad." <br>
<br>
Edderov nodded and held still while two other agents put a leather bag over his head and secured his nose through the breathing hole. It was standard procedure. None of the agents were supposed to know exactly where they were going, only enough to get the job done. <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><i>The Drop-Point<br>
</i></b>​</div>The planet was on the edge of Kefalonian populated space. Near enough that whatever it was that was here could be dangerous to civilian populations. The shuttle touched down just a few kilometers from the Imperial expedition force and the six-man team filed out. <br>
<br>
Among them were three ex-Army agents, dressed in combat gear and wielding plasma rifles. Except for one, a heavy weapons specialist who came equipped with a heavy suppressive machine gun and an anti-material magnetic rifle as well as assorted grenades. They were named Wegdov, Robarius, and Edna respectively. The priest was one Proctor Weglius, who was also dressed in combat gear and toting a rifle. And finally, their psychic was one Rokko Adamia, on loan from the Kinesis Corps. She was known to be a pyrokinetic specialist. Then there was Edderov, the only official agent of the Ministry which made him the commanding officer. <br>
<br>
As their feet hit the dirt, they put on their rebreathers. While the air was certainly non-toxic and a decent temperature, the oxygen content was too low to support them. Edderov scanned the area and noted the tell-tale signs of ruins in the bottom of the valley. <br>
<br>
"Lets move." He said, taking out an instrument that looked something like a Geiger counter. It was a quantum field normativity detector, made to detect abnormalities in the physical fabric of the universe. Alongside it, in his pack, was a device called a Almagerov Field Emitter. It emitted a field that seperated the four known dimensions from the other (purportedly eleven) dimensions. This would ensure the death of any being that was caught between dimensions (as is often the case). It was his ace in the hole assuming whatever was in these ruins couldn't just be dispatched with a bullet to the face. <br>

Claudius shook the proctors hand firmly as did Paulus, "Ave Proctor Remov" Claudius said "So you are from the church?" Claudius paused for a moment "I really hope your here to create an understanding between our faiths, because it wont go smoothly if you try and convert people, i don't mean that in a threatening way just a warning".<br>
<br>
"But either way, we are glad to have you" Paulus stated, he offers them a seat and says "What does the Kefalonian church want with our legion or empire for that matter?" Claudius followed to sit down, unable to pry his eyes away from the redheaded girl  "She probably thinks i'm some sex hungry savage" he thought to himself.<br>

<br>
Borislav and his men were allowed into the city, the bustling market and streets became silent as these men walked the town, guided my a Legionnaire. After a while they came to the foot of the Emperors palace and from the doors three figures came and made their way to meet Borislav, they were flanked by five Praetorian Guards on each side, black and purple armor, shields and swords drawn.<br>
<br>
"You must be the commander i was told about" said Emperor Aurelius "I am Emperor Aurelius vulpes, this is my son Septimus vulpes" the young boy looks at Borislav and his men and hugs closer to his fathers side "And i am Silus inculta head of the Frumentarii" Silus and Septimus gave a bow "However, you may call me Caesar" The Emperor said, standing stiff and stark.<br>
<br>
"I was told you were diplomats, yet you march through my streets with soldiers and that... metallic creature" He steps forward towards Borislav, "Either way, you have come to discuss how we can benefit each others empires?" he gestures his men to part "If you would follow me into my palace, we can begin matters of statecraft inside"<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>Mere Unionism <br>
</i></b>​</div>"It is truly a pleasure to meet you, gentlemen." Proctor Remov said in Latin and spoke the Invictus's dialect of vulgate Latin fluently throughout their entire conversation. <br>
<br>
"The Church of the Union, as you may know, is the largest religious organization in this galactic locality boasting over a trillion laymembers," he said, "but even if this were not the case, the Church values a plurality of faiths and religious belief systems and is not in the business of attempting to extinguish so-called heretical beliefs. Within most religions is at the very least a shred of metaphysical truth that transcends superstition. So it was with the Gulzmen of Ulthar, the Rekists of Tukreet, the Christians of Earth, and so on and so forth. The Unionist Church is somewhat unique, in that we are aware of our inability to fully and totally comprehend the mysteries of our almighty Maker, his personalities and divine powers. Furthermore, we do not seek to stamp out differing interpretations of his divine wisdom incarnated in other peoples." <br>
<br>
He paused to let his words sink in, hoping that the soldiers were educated enough to understand him. <br>
<br>
"But, respectfully, some of the practices of the Empire run counter to what we know of divine wisdom and the proper course of worldly events. We have been sent to establish a mission here, and to guide all those who are willing to hear the message in the tenants of our religion. We will make no effort to cajole or seduce the masses into accepting a foreign god. Nor will we make any attempt to assault, either physically or with words, the observance of the Pantheon in these territories." <br>
<br>
"The Church is willing to pay the government of this province handsomely for the permission to establish this mission, and for defending it should violence break out." He added. <br>
<br>
Behind him, the Proctress glanced between the two men, then fell into pensiveness with her eyes on her lap. <br>

<br>
"Again you amaze me with your acts of courteousness" Paulus said in Vulgate Latin, "We believe that it is in our best interest to allow you to establish a mission here" Before he could continue he was interrupted by another soldier "Heresy! you cannot allow profligates to spread their lies among our people!" the soldier walked towards the table, sword drawn. the two men sprang up, Claudius moved over to the proctors and shielded them while Paulus advanced on the soldier "Did you just try to command me?" Paulus struck the soldier about the head with a vine staff and knocked him to the ground "I am...sorry sir" the solider blurted out clutching his head, Paulus leaned over to him "If you ever display such insubordination and stupidity again i will have you crucified" Paulus lifted the man up and pushed him towards some guards who took him away.<br>
<br>
Claudius turned towards the two proctors and ensured that they were alright, he glanced at the girl "There are a shortage of beautiful women on this planet, it would be a shame to loose one" he said under his breath in Latin. "Well i am truly sorry about that, i can have him killed if you desire such a punishment" Paulus thought about what punishment would befall the soldier if his incompetence had soured this deal "If you are still willing to stay, i will provide you with guards made of both legionnaires and Velites as well as any other personnel you choose to bring with you".<br>
<br>
Claudius then asked "What practices of the Empire go against yours?" he asked giving the two people room to recuperate.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>Mere Unionism<br>
</i></b>​</div>"Let the young soldier alone," Proctor Remov said, waving his hand dismissively. "Punish him for his insubordination if you wish, for that is right to do in the ranks of the army, but spare him his life. No man should fear to speak his mind to me, and besides he is young yet. Wisdom rarely visits those his age." <br>
<br>
The Proctress, who seemed unfazed by her attempted murder, merely nodded. "While the protection of the guards would be helpful, it is not the place of preachers to travel under armed guard. We will forgo the military escort. For now, we merely require lodging." <br>
<br>
Remov then addressed Claudius, "It would be rude to instruct morality outside of worship services. If you would like to know the moral code of our faith, you must attend service." <br>

Update is expected tomorrow to my Info of my race and i will try and...bother some other folk</span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: 22px"><span style="color: #b30000"><br>
<b><u>A Scaled Savior</u></b></span></span>​</div><br>
Hate with his guardsmen and the small drone proceeding with the meeting with the great dragon, the sight of the massive and mostly void like hangar was...outstanding, it must have taken half of there life to make such a thing! well that was his thoughts<b><span style="color: #59b300"> "Captain, this ship...its beyond massive, i cant even find a classification for it in our catalog, it could be classified as a "O Class" ship...well this is more like a giant battleship with triple the power..." </span></b>The small drone spoke as they are guided by what seem two guards, armored and flourish with nano bots as they guided the group through a massive hall of some sort full of many others who stayed as sentinels, protecting and eyes open. Soon as they there escort has reach a a end, hate was presented to "Yagdra" and shook the brutish figures hand without hesitation. <span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b><u>"Correct its a pleasure to be here" </u></b></span></span>Hate said as soon the drone hearing the short history lesson grew rather thought full as it spoke <b><span style="color: #00b300">"Vector of the heavens?...name fits it i must say! one outstanding vessel! the kin you are all are is outstanding and such cant wait to know more! middle aged,quick development, Hooo i have so many questions!" </span></b>It would continue to speak but it stop as the drone would clear its throat, well made the sound not literally, as it knew asking questions now was not the best time...maybe later the beholder of knowledge would quench its thirst of curiosity one day but not now.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b><u>"Hate, High council of the King and Queen of the Cataphract"</u></b></span></span> Hate replied as Yagdra introduced its name, receiving the glasses, well it looked like such and wondered what are these planes he speaks of? maybe soon hate would figure out. The drone as the portal would open would attach itself on Hates shoulder, seeming to look like some mechanical companion but the clear sight of what seem red flesh with metallic trims was seen under small opening, revealing even the drone was organic in ways. Walking through the portal and appearing in a massive silent room decorated with the same crystals that are seen rather commonly around made him wonder what they served for.<br>
<br>
Hearing the intimidating voice yet kind in way to sit down, Hate would take a seat on the furnishes and acknowledge how much they had to discuss, from a silent whisper the drone said to Hate <b><span style="color: #00b300">"The art of war, there is no need to raise arms and eliminate the enemy, but break the enemies resistance without fighting...The Umbra,Daerys, just by showing in the battlefield would strike fear and with a fight before it starts...never have thought i would see "fear" just by the sight of one figure...even still, he seems to be a very friendly Great Lord...don't judge books by its covers" </span></b>The drone said very softly mostly to himself and rather unheard, it was impressed at the sight of the massive towering behemoth and they though King Valor was massive but this being, surpass anything they have seen. Hate would straighten and would nod and say<b><u><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"> "Indeed great Umbra, i must say i am in your debt, and now being personally in your presence there is so much to know and share" </span></span></u></b>Hate one last time reclaimed as the blessing they had to come to them.<br>
<br>
Hate looked around a bit, the crystals, they are mostly in plain sight wherever he has gone for now and even to carry there torn ship, soon he asked <span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b><u>"Great Daerys, i must ask, the sight of there very common numbers yet the fact i do not understand them. These crystals, gemstones that ignore gravity and seem to be under command, what are they? in my time i have never seen such creation, it saved my torn ship and guided them, yet they are...crystals"</u></b></span></span> He asked thoughtfully of it, such a simple looking object that holds yet...so much more than it seems, it it powered by some outer force? manifestation of some technology? he wished to know about it.<br>
<br>
Hate knew he should have not started with such a simple question but his though wandered off  a bit, once again his slow and glitch voiced echoed <span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: #b30000"><b><u>"Forgive me, Its common perception of us as a specie to be naturally curious. We, The Living, The mechanical beings that live and breath are born with this sense of...discovery and knowledge. It's a urge we cannot bastion and hold, our queen crafted us and molded us in such way to expand and grow, seeking to know the unknown...but not all are seekers of the unknown." </u></b></span></span>He clarified hoping his questions wont bother the great Umbra, of course it dint mean they could not hold it and not ask questions but it was a urge, to know everything, that is why they hold so much and yet seek more than they can hold as they are made to BE curious and know. The guards stood beside hate,standing like sentinels and sure, they would be unable to stand off against anything but it was of natural sense to guard. The drone slowly floated about around the room but not going far from Hate, it dint wish to cause complications in the meeting by his meddling. The drone was not recording or taking images or sending signals, these beings are mechanical and could surely be able to detect anything and even still if it did, the drone was not fitted to begin such, especially inside this massive vessel. The drone was more of Hate's Third eye and the ship's crew form to communicate with Hate if he was not with them. But even still it was best it stayed close and not cause worries especially in front of there great leader, Daerys. First impression must be perfect.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 18px">UEG Colony World Tribute</span><br>

They say they want to overthrow the tyrannical government of the UEG."</span> He gave a short and humourless laugh. <span style="color: #b30000">"Everything they've done so far is the exact opposite of what they say. They've detonated explosives in major population centres, invaded and occupied colonies to fund their cause, and assassinated political figures within the UEG. They're not freedom fighters, they're simple terrorists who should be put down." </span><br>
<br>
He paused as he listened to Tlur's offer of aid.<span style="color: #b30000"> "No, I don't think anyone will agree to that. If the rebels find out you're helping us, it'll make you a huge target. The thing with these rebels is that they strike with no warning, so there's really no way to know when their next attack will come. They have multiple sleeper cells in almost every single colony world in the UEG." </span><br>

<span style="color: #0000b3">"And I thought Sanction was bad..."</span> Agent Chris Weller muttered as he walked through the streets of the expansive space station known as Alpha. The UEG had gotten to know of its existence when intelligence agencies such as the Interstellar Security Agency Weller belonged to were going through Vaycanta Imperium databases. Apparently, this place used to be an asteroid mining station until pirates took over. Over time, the place became known as a gigantic black market, a place where you could get anything you wanted. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b30000">"Hey, Sanction's a nice place."</span> Weller's partner spoke up, walking next to him, his Russian accent quite heavy. Agent Vasily Tarkov was quite the opposite of his partner. While Weller preferred diplomacy and caution when dealing with problems, violence was the go-to solution to everything for Tarkov. Weller wasn't exactly sure what the higher-ups were thinking when they partnered him with the burly Stolitsan. <span style="color: #b30000">"Good place to get drunk, you know?"</span><br>
<br>
The two were currently garbed head to toe in ISA Powered Armour. A set of armour built specifically for use by intelligence agents, and as such, contained many built-in recording pieces of equipment such as cameras and microphones. The armour was also more optimised for mobility and utility rather than protection like Marine Powered Combat Armour, which was why it couldn't take as much punishment as frontline combat armour. The ISA would normally send intelligence agents into key locations in plainclothes or basic bulletproof jackets with powered exosuits, but since Alpha had a reputation for being a wretched hive of scum and villainry, agents were sent in wearing full armour and assault rifles.<br>
<br>
Right now, the helmets of each agent were open, their faceplates resting on the top of their helmets, revealing their faces. For Weller, he looked fairly typical, with deep blue eyes and black hair, a bit of stubble on his chin. Tarkov's Slavic heritage was showing, present in the form of his grey eyes and brown hair. The two were walking down one of the station's main streets, their ACAR-52s securely locked into place by a set of magnetic clamps on their backs, G138 pistols by their thighs. They had been sent in to gather information, and their helmet cams were recording, mapping out the place.<br>
<br>
So far, nothing out of the ordinary had happened, and Weller was glad for that.<br>

</b>​</div>Daniel Rhys made his way into a club, pushing his way past the many ravers inside. He was a young but trusted member of the Colonial Freedom Front, the group who opposed the tyrannical and corrupt United Earth Government and fought for their freedom. Rhys supported the CFF and swore to fight until his very last breath, to never surrender even against a superior foe. It was what he learned when his father was killed during fighting UEG Marines when he was just a boy. <i>Never surrender</i>, his father had told him, <i>even in the face of the enemy</i>. His father had died fighting, a soldier of the CFF to the very end. <br>
<br>
He activated the holotool on his wrist, the device lighting up and projecting a hologram. On it was an image of a woman who he was supposed to meet up with. He looked around the bar before he eventually found someone matching her description sitting by the counter, sipping a glass of some fruity cocktail. White hair? Check. Pink jacket? Check. Attractive? Eh, moderately.<br>
<br>
Rhys adjusted his cap and straightened up his leather jacket as he made his way over to her. <span style="color: #00b300">"Valvetine?"</span> He asked, getting her attention.<br>

I believe your people and your country would benefit much from our help. But i am aware of your caution to help from a foreign entity."</span> One of the Heydrian bodyguards walked away from the group toward Gideon. <span style="color: #ffa64d">"AI Gideon, we've seen your peoples military is quite advanced, and we wonder if a joint military training session is at all possible between Heydros and The United Earth Government? It is my belief that our peoples would get a much more intimate knowledge of eachother and help strengthen our bonds."</span> Tlur didnt mind the soldier asking questions for himself, he knew that the heydrian guard was genuitely curious and impressed about the UEG's military, they were indeed very organized from what Tlur saw. Perhaps even more than The imperium itself. <br>

Uncharted planet​</div>Kela and her squad followed the Anomaly tracker for a few hours at the most with no sign of life other than themselves. Soon they found themselves at the base of a mountain with what looked like a giant pantheon built into it with an entrance supported by large pillars.<span style="color: #00ff00"> "Whoa"</span><span style="color: #0080ff"> "You think this was made in our plane of existence or do you think its part of the anomaly?"</span> <span style="color: #b35900">"i dont know"</span> Kela and co stopped at the entrance shining a light inside. What they could see was a structure will rooms and stairs with pathways to who knows where. Before going in they followed protocol and sent out a signal telling the cruiser above that they may have found the anomaly and it was a building of some sort. <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"Good find, attempted to recon inside, the rest will be there shortly"</span> <span style="color: #4dff4d">"yes ma'am. Remember everyone! stick together!"</span> Jack yelled out and started to walk inside. <span style="color: #b35900">"Don't forget to protect your mind with a psionic field Jack."</span><span style="color: #4dff4d"> "right right" </span>choosing a random pathway up the stairs. <br>
<br>
With her plasma repeater in front Kela took the lead as she was probably the better out of the group at shooting things, the stairs they went up seemed endless with various rooms that connected to it and after a while of walking up Kela decided to turn to a random room and walk into it with the squad following. The room they went in was rather pristine, almost too pristine. There was no scent of any kind of smell, no sound, only random objects of what might fit the general theme of the room. Vases, mirrors, drawers, what kela noticed that everything was made with the same material the walls and floors were, a Marble like stone. There were benches, chairs, statues of abstract creatures that didnt look natural and even what seemed like a waterfall but instead of water little flakes of the same material flowed down into what looked like an endless void. <span style="color: #00ff00">"Something is definitely wrong here" </span>Perhaps the structure they were in held some sort of mind trick that wouldve made everything seemed natural if it hadn't been for the psionic wards they used to protect their minds.<br>

Sigmantorium battlefield debris​</div>Treasure hunter and wanted criminal Teflos was searching a abandoned ship wreck of a battleship long since dead. He was trying to find some sort of power source rumored to be in the Sigmantorium battlefield debris of long dead ships from a time unknown. The ships themselves were useless hunks of some sort of metal and the debris field made it hard for anyship to travel through. Not only that but the battlefield itself was a rumor, <span style="color: #4d4dff">"and some rumors are true."</span> Teflos thought out loud as he travelled through the shields in his small corvette searching a for valuable construct. He pulled up the imagine of the thing, and even though it was simply a sketch it was distinct enough to not be mistaken for a random piece of junk. The debris of the ships themselves would make for very profitable salvaging but he was there for the big bucks.<br>
<br>
Seeing a small light somewhere in the distance Teflos flew his ship closer and when he was in a good enough distance he got out of the pilot seat and went down to the airlock to get dressed up in his spacesuit. After that he unpressurized the airlock and went outside without a tether. This wasnt his first time going out into the void of space without a tether, in fact it was quite common for him to do so. flying toward the light emitting from a ship that really shouldn't have any light in it he summarized that it was probably the power source he had been assigned to. Avoiding stray flying debris and hitting the hull of the large ship Teflos walked clamly to find an airlock or some sort of entrance to get into the ship, his helmet came to light with flashlights lead him toward a gigantic hole.<span style="color: #4d4dff"> "Shit, looks like the ship got hit" </span>Whatever had hit the ship went clean through, but this was a good thing, for Teflos anyway. He used this as a way to get in. <br>
<br>
After a few hours of roaming the ships interior and remembering his way back out he finally go into a hallway where there was some sort of light shining through. <span style="color: #4d4dff">"Finally"</span> He floated his way toward it only to find a room with a window having a intense light shining through. He floated toward the window and saw it. Just like in the picture a cylindrical rod that might or might not be radioactive inside some sort of containment field. Teflos flew backward and shot his pistol at that glass until it broke. Going inside he then started to unhinge the containment construct built around the blasted expensive thing that would totally bring him enough fortune to retire and still have money left over after buying a few private planets. The latches that held it on started to buckle and snap causing the entire ship to come to life only blinking red emergency lights. There was no sound of course but no doubt a distress signal would make a few parties interested. <br>

</span></b>​</div><span style="font-size: 15px">The ships  that had long slept having expended most of their power had long enjoyed their est before a young race found the ancient ships that had been left adrift in the vast universe.  The crew had  slept  peacefully while they waited for recovery not realizing that it would likely take thousands of years, well that mattered little to the immortal machines.  This drafting was disturbed only when an intruder  came aboard and  broken into one of their containment chambers  taking one of the power rods that were stored  for other real emergencies. When this relic was stolen  the emergency state returned and the crew was roused from their slumber as the real reactors  started once again to power up, but they were heavily damaged  and working at only about 40%  normal levels  which was why they had gone into stasis.  The  waking was slow at first but rapidly progressed and soon the crew and the ship itself were awake fully once more. The intruder and his stolen goods  had to be found that was their primary concern. <br>
<br>
The crew would flood into the corridors  to the reactors, very literally they were swarms of nanites not having taken any shape just yet in their haste to attack  the being that would dare take from them. The ship for its part would  start it self repairs  gathering up what  bits it could  from the debris around it calling to the nanties that made it up to rerun to the gaping wound.  That would would slowly start to close but never woudl it fully close  it would remain a  wound in the ship until it could get to a world ship for repairs.  With the ship now awake it would send out stronger signals requesting aid from one of the world ships they needed to be picked up, and they knew now that they were actively broadcasting  they woudl be saved soon they just had to wait up to a day to receive the help they craved. They also needed  to kill this intruder but first they needed to language he spoke, thus the ship would start scanning the other ships data banks rather aggressively actually  causing  mild technical glitches in its attacker.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>The Light of Ewther<br>
</i></b>​</div>Having landed closer to the ruins, the Kefalonian team had entered the complex first. After they had turned their flashlights on, Edderov surveyed the interior with the detached interest of an archeologist. <br>
<br>
"Very old, what would you put the age on this?" Edderov asked, turning to Proctor Wegdov. <br>
<br>
The priest squared up his jaw and attempted to recall what he remembered of the ancient inhabitants of this area of the Galaxy. "Well you had the Crucshans at around 4500 before Revelation, the Varangar a thousand years before that. But, honestly this doesn't look Cruchan or Varangarian. It's definitely older." <br>
<br>
One of the soldiers reached his hand out to touch a case before having his hand ruthlessly slapped by Edderov. <br>
<br>
"What the hell is the matter with you?" <br>
<br>
The soldier recoiled, startled by the sudden action. "It just looked strange." <br>
<br>
Edderov studied the vase and noticed that not just it, but all of the furniture, walls, floors, and ceilings were made of the same pale material. <br>
<br>
"Something's off about this place. It's putting feelers out," said the psychic, Adamia. <br>
<br>
"Feelers?" Asked one of the soldiers. <br>
<br>
"They didn't tell me they were sending greenhorns," Edderov swore, "yes, feelers. The place is putting off a mental aura of some kind. It's trying to mess with our heads." <br>
<br>
The soldier waved his hand dismissively. "Sure. Sure. Lets just find whatever it is and shoot it." <br>
<br>
Edderov chortled. "Will do." <br>
<br>
Before they could advance any further, they heard footsteps approaching from behind them. Edderov turned to the rest of the group and told them to be quiet while he listened. Then he barked in a shrill whisper for them to hide. When they had hidden themselves, they watched as a small squad of various humanoids entered the gallery, chattering in another language. Edderov watched them for a moment, before signalling his men to jump out and surprise them. <br>
<br>
"Stop right there!" He shouted in Galactic Standard, drawing a bead on Kela with his rifle. "Identify yourselves!" <br>

Fael softly jumped from the windowed meeting area he contacted the Umbra in. His limbs laid out far as his guards held the door for him. The large space for construction and experimental procedures seemed clean and fresh. Multiple Servyui were stationed around a new build for the Void Gate. A giant crystal riddled with crystal rings. On the end of the runway in the workshop was a Bastion, Faer Kiji Viso. The gate had been consistently teleporting correctly with smaller craft. However, Fael wanted to do full tests, with little breaks in between. <br>
<br>
He softly raised his arm, as signal to free the chain on the gate. Sparkles of energy dashed across the crystal until Fael ordered jump when aboard. The destination was the rim world of Xion, right before the expedition would colonize. The sights of the Void dazzled most. However, Fael noticed the extension of the drive. He ordered exit early. Finding himself on an unexplored world, the Bastion or frigate landed on the other side of the Kefalonians and others. <br>
<br>
"Captain, status?" <br>
<br>
"My Dark, the Void Gate has moved us farther than intended. We are in range to send communications back to the Shadow. What is your wish?"<br>
<br>
"I shall explore the ruins. Send in three fire teams. Void only knows what is here."<br>
<br>
Fael walla out of the ship. His escort being last to enter the ruins. Fireteams scramble over the ruins, moving quietly. Fael moves straight through, making quick turns until he hears the Kefalonians speak. SignalING with his arm, multiple of his escort cloak and position. Soon after, Fael stepped into view. He bends down and speaks.<br>
<br>
"Yet who are you?" He paused, "It seems multiple parties clash." He adjusted his metal suit, softly rolling his hollow face. Fael simply was the slenderman.</div>

<span style="font-size: 15px">There is no price of a mile, he thought as he looked at the ominous message that looped. Cmdr. Butcher was near those coordinates, only a few hours of slipspace travel and he'd be there. Butcher was on a Mikhal class destroyer, docked at a refuelling station manned by Heydrian and Imperium forces.<br>
<br>
Butcher wasn't a Living Tank, nor was he purely human, he resembled half machine, and half flesh. His left arm only being flesh, along with his torso. His legs were mechanical and metal. His right arm was mechanical too. Tattoos and scars adore this body, as the flesh is covered with markings and symbols.<br>
<br>
After the refuel, he starts his trek towards the beacon, and within a few hours they arrive near the planet.</span><br>

Borislav tilts his head as the Emperor spoke. "Do you think the gods have the best intentions for your people? I am the champion of the Gods." He approaches, the Living Tank follows in suit, destroying mosaic tiles and such as the tank moves. "Do you BLEED? I will defeat a hundred of your kind with my fists alone. Take me to your arena, I will fight a hundred and should you reject my offer. The power of the Gods will come reigning down.<br>

The Heydrians begin to raise their weapons. The tank aims its cannons at the soldiers around them.<br>

There was a large amount of debris floating around the orbit of the planet. It had been marked on the Heydrian navigation system when the Heydrian battleship entered the solar system as "Planet Anbian". As the Heydrian ship neared closer to the planet, the signal grew stronger. Just as the Heydrian ship entered the exosphere of Planet Anbian, did they receive Frequency 3.334.</span></span><br>

<br>
The Emperor did not step back, he stood still facing borislav. He was enraged, how could this profligate, this heretic insult him in such a manner?, Septimus has already ran behind several ranks of guards and most of the palaces praetorians had taken up an offensive position with their weapons drawn, the Pyro-ballistas had taken aim on the living take. It seems as though one movement would spark a fight.<br>
<br>
"You think you scare me?" the Emperor said with a deathly serious tone "You can fight in arena and earn my approval or you can leave this world and never come back" he paused, he was a second away from shouting "And if you choose not to leave peacefully, i will have the whole of the invictus fall on you like a hammer, i will not have profligates stand before me and insult me".<br>
<br>
The Emperors troops opened two paths, one to the arena and another back to borislavs shuttle, "What will it be?"<br>

<br>
The Kefalonian proctors had been given lodging in the form of the centurions old tent, which was in itself very glamorous compared with the other tents, tables with bottles of wine already on them, a slave awaiting instructions and the centurion's gladius on the table in the middle along with his plumed helmet. The centurion had died of sickness and there was a vote going around to decide who would become the replacement centurion, Paulus or Claudius, even the proctors had been asked to vote. The legion had given the proctors a very broad series of times with which to conduct service.<br>
<br>
Over the next few days before the first service began many different types of people where interested, slaves, legionnaires, Velites, children who had been sent to this world to train and of course Paulus and Claudius although how many of the people attending where going there out of interest or just boredom was anyone's guess.<br>

Uncharted planet, ruins of another age.​</div>Kela and co walked through the vast unmarked hallways of the structure wary and slightly disturbed, that is until a voice broke their emotions and training took over. Rifles and all kinds of weapons pointed at the source of the sound and from what Kela could tell, they weren't abominations. <span style="color: #4dff4d">"Hold fire! Who are they?!"</span> Trigger fingers ready to fire and minds ready to let hell loose they were interrupted by yet another group of unknowns. and two of the squad pointed their weapons at them. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Shit"</span> Jak'Chal said to his squadmates through a psionic message. <span style="color: #b35900">"What do we do?!" </span>clearing her throat Kela was the first to talk.<span style="color: #00ff00"> "So, who are you and how did you find this place?"</span> It seemed it was up to kela to broker peace in this stand off.<br>

Up and above the Lancelot Class Cruiser, Zuhalen had already recovered the transports from the other planets in the star system and jumped into oribit of the planet that the transmission from Kela's team came from. "Ma'am we've detected a unknown ship in the atmosphere of the planet." <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"What?"</span> The sensor cadet leaned to the side to give NeiFerius a better look at the strange entity that wasnt there before. NeiFerius was going through her head on what it could be. <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"is it Kefalonian?"</span> "no, this does not match any known Kefalonian signals" NeiFerius went quiet for a few seconds before she straightened herself.<span style="color: #ff4d4d"> "Hail it and if it doesnt respond within 15 minutes fire upon it"</span><br>

Space battle debris, Ship derelict.​</div>Teflos was done getting a strap and wrapping the damned thing onto him when he looked out the window he broke to get in only to see a black haze of something coming at him through the dimly lit hallway <span style="color: #4d4dff">"Oh shit" </span>He quickly scrambled out of the window and turned on his jetpack to fly somewhere, only known as "the opposite of that omninus cloud of death" and just flew down the hallway just trying to avoid the cloud and get out as soon as possible. This wasnt his first rodeo with life threatening situations and it wasnt going to be his last damnit! Outside the Derelict battleship 5 ships came out of FTL. One of them was a destroyer sized ship going about eight hundred meters bristling with various low caliber weaponry and the rest were small frigates and corvettes ranging from 200 to 600m all with the same type of guns. small craft of all kinds flew from these ships and went flying after the signal. <br>

"While our homeworld of Oberzirx is normally volcanic, all crystals form in its bitterly cold winter from the atmospheric ventilation. Updrafts suck all of the heat from the surface. Faster than the volcanoes can replenish. The updrafts force heat into the heat to collect in the second atmosphere where particles of Lyriex, Corsik, and Requiem fall and condense into crystals as these. They fall as snow in this state, once on the ground they stick together and form one crystal as such with this one."<br>
<br>
"A combination of Lyriex and Requiem particles, this crystal is considered a Yander crystal with abilities to project communications signals, receive signals, and images with high efficiency. All crystals respond to energy matrixes, allowing my people to control them remotely. They hold some ability to process information and this allows these crystals to show images. Also, all crystals naturally bend gravitonal fields allowing it to float on its own."<br>
<br>
Yagdra slides off of his grandfather, flowing his hand through a red flashing cube. He bows his head shortly before looking back. He speaks in Umbronik, "Fael has made contact with humans. It seems one of the craft is preparing to attack." His voiced seemed worried.<br>
<br>
Daerys responded in Umbronik, "Accept their help request. Prevent conflict if they can. If not, make the Shadow proud. Fael has my backing, if it is needed. Fight." A light squad of Bastions, Osos, and Liticas would be sent to the position, being lead by a Havyortict file. Arriving as soon as they could. <br>
<br>
Daerys returned attention to Hate, "So, your queen shaped your kind. Why did she do so?" Daerys smiled, talking calmly. His tail wagged back and forth as the metal in the walls melded back into panels.</div>

Butcher commented on the hue of the sky, and the green of the ocean. It was not common to see this, atleast for most Proletariats and Penals, but for warlords like Butcher? It was indeed normal.<br>

A landing craft was sent to the planet. On the trip there nearing a safe distance from the ground, the engines cut out and the ship collides into the ground. Some died, some didn't.<br>
<br>
Butcher, a small team of scientists, and the remaining 4 man squad of Heydrians had made planetfall onto the destination that was described on the transmission. With weary eyes, the soldiers and the scientist look outside of the craft for anything moving that was outside. STAVKAs were pointed towards the door of the landing craft. The door opened, revealing the big plains. The landscape was smooth, the grass was purplish red, and the soil was brown. They stared at the plain grasslands, with STAVKAs aimed.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>Mere Unionism<br>
</i></b>​</div>The first service was held five days after the arrival of the Kefalonian priests. During the week, they had made themselves fairly scarce. When they took meals, they took them together in the tent. When they went for walks, they did so in solitude or with each other. Most of their time was spent in their tent. Usually, when they were called upon they would be reading out of the book that the Proctoress has brought, or writing. Occasionally, they would be up late at night burning oil and discussing in their native language. Some of the soldiers in the camp wondered if they may have been married, or at least romantically involved, but there had been no evidence of that and if they did partake of any nocturnal activities they were exceedingly quiet about it.<br>
<br>
The Proctress rarely spoke. It was usually Proctor Remov that was the public face of Unionism to the camp. That changed as the day of the service came and the curious Invictans filed into the makeshift ampitheater constructed of wooden benches with a pulpit in the center. The Proctress vigorously greeted every one of them as they arrived, shaking their hands and making a sign on them by which she would gently touch their head and draw a line down to their hearts in the air, muttering some ancient blessing in her native tongue.<br>
<br>
The service underway, the Proctor stood to the right of the pulpit as the Proctress mounted the lectern and set her book down, turning to some page and taking out a few loose sheets of paper. She began in Latin.<br>
<br>
"Greetings, and thank you. Tonight's service will be from the Index by St. Ipirisius, Chapter 14. May we pray that the Maker guide us in euclidation and the extrapolation of the blessed mysteries from the Text."<br>
<br>
"Maker, hear our prayer." The Proctor piped.<br>
<br>
"St. Ipirisius was a Gordian, writing roughly 260 After Revelation. His Indices are the basis through which we interpret much of the Early Revelatory Canon. During this time, the Kingdom of Gordia was engaged in putting down a revolt of the annexed Kingdom of Elverisa, whom they had defeated in battle a few centuries ago. Ipirisius travelled to Elverisa when he was about thirty, to preach the Revelation in those lands, and what he found appalled him and colored much of his writing. Elverisa was struggling under military rule. The Gordian soldiers, though professionals, were accused of all manner of atrocities such as murder, theft, and the selling of orphans of the war into slavery. He writes: <br>
<br>
<i>When I was young, I thought it inconceivable that men's hearts could be so colored and stained with blood that they could conduct themselves so. But alas, at Elverisa, it was such. Once, I spoke to the Captain of the Guard hear and I said unto him, "Do pangs of conscience not grow in you?" <br>
<br>
He replied, "War breeds hatred, and hatred breeds apathy." <br>
<br>
Thus, I say verily that we must not completely forsake the tools of destruction, for there is a right and proper season wherein princes go to war over principles, pride, and national honor. But woe unto him who finds it unnatural to beat his sword into plowshares, who longs for the fight. This is what the Revelation means when it says, "Whosoever revels in death will find only death, but whosoever revels in life may find it abundant."  <br>
<br>
The soldier needs return to the soil and become a farmer, if he is to live rightly. A farmer, perhaps not of seeds but of life, cultivating and enriching his own spirit and that of those around him. For soldiering often relies on hatred, which breeds apathy, which breeds atrocity. <br>
</i><br>
When she had finished the reading, the Proctress bowed her head reverently towards the book. <br>
<br>
"So sayeth the saints, so sayeth the Maker." <br>
<br>
She made a sign in the air. <br>
<br>
"Go in peace. You are dismissed." <br>

Only the grass swaying gently with each breeze shows signs of life on the planet. On Commander Butcher's wristcomm, the radio frequency is incredibly strong, however, there are no radio towers or anything of the sort in sight.<br>
<br>
That's when the ground started moving.<br>
<br>
A spire made out of stone and metal extends from the ground, ten meters into the air. A boy steps out. He's no more than ten. He wears tattered rags and his face is littered with soot and dirt. His hair mangled and greasy. Cuts, bruises, and scars are visible on his arms and legs from meters away.<br>

"Wanna see my sand castle?" the boy says.</span></span></span></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b><i>The Light of Ewther<br>
</i></b>​</div>The Kefalonians also shifted their weapons, some of them training them on the newcomers. Edderov sighed and lowered his rifle, slinging it over his back. He was dressed in the same double-breasted black suit but wearing a rebreather over his face. He took a small, non-threatening device from his pocket and checked the oxygen content of the room before taking off his rebreather and exposing his face, which was tall with thin features and icy blue eyes. He took a small silver case from his pocket and another small device. From the case, he took a hand-rolled cigarette. The small device flipped open and he used it to strike a small flame and light the cigarette. The tension in the room began to slowly dissipate. <br>
<br>
"Alright, let's clear the air. Smoke anyone?"<br>
<br>
The Proctor meekly accepted a cigarette and the lighter and passed them on to whoever wanted one. <br>
<br>
"Now," Edderov said, blowing smoke, "I can't tell you exactly who I am. Suffice to call me E. I work for the Kefalonian government. We were sent here to investigate a quantum anomaly. The rest is classified stuff. So, how about you boys and girls?" <br>
<br>
When the cigarette tin came around to Adamia she took a cigarette, placed it between her lips, and snapped her fingers causing a small flame to spring up from her thumb which she used to light the cigarette. <br>

The Emperor was silent for a moment, it had been some time since Boris had made his way into the arena the day prior. "Your people are in grave danger" those word stuck in the emperors mind "What danger? he wont let that happen?" he went over that day a thousand times and despite that fact that his rage had diminished he was still angry at how Borislav had talked to him "Oh mighty emperor" but as insulted as he was, he was no fool he knew that if the outside galaxy wanted war with his people, he would not win.<br>
<br>
Either way it was time for Borislavs first arena battle, it was him against five gladiators with two gladiators on his side, the Emperor stood up from his seating area "Citizens of Rome, you have come today to witness men prove their might in he only way they truly can, with steel and muscle, so come gladiators and purchase your glory, purchase it honestly, with blood!"<br>
<br>
The five opposing gladiators charged towards Borislav and his two gladiators, the time for battle was nigh.<br>

It had been a short while since the first sermon and the camp seemed more calm, less younger legionnaires where fighting and the men had started viewing the proctors as a part of the camp, like the rest of them where, they greeted and waved to the proctors whenever they passed by and referred to them as "amicus" meaning friend some soldiers even offered the proctors a chance to eat with them. It had also been decided that Claudius become the new centurion, Paulus didn't mind too much, he was always too laid back to be anything more than a Decanus.<br>
<br>
However, one day while the proctors where walking through the camp they were approached by a young boy in training , he was about thirteen, he approached the proctors and said "you said that The soldier needs return to the soil and become a farmer and then you said For soldiering often relies on hatred" the boy then paused and said "But what if the farmer is attacked? he has laid down his weapons and so cannot defend himself, and if soldiering relies on hatred then why does the legion fight for the protection and love of the empire?"<br>

However, he allowed his comrades to go first. After they went ahead he began to fight the other Gladiators. With a quick blow to the Gladiator's helmet; the gladiator goes flying back. A gladiator attempts to slash his arm, but Borislav retorts with a gut punch to the gladiator. The gladiator's rib is broken from the punch, and he lands some feet back. Borislav continues to fight. </span><br>

With the sudden pull of the Bastion's communication, Fael raised his arm to receive the hail. He stopped, trying to open the line with some static and failure. The Servyus on the frigate brace for combat. Servyus fire teams search through the ruins, constantly moving and analyzing the ruins. With long archways everywhere, the fire teams jumped up to the roof of the building, scanning the ruins and sent waves of void energy throughout. Setting up perimeter and defensive shields, weary of anything inside the ruins outside. Outside of thr ruins they laid. The reinforced fleet arrived, falling in line with the Bastion. The Bastion would launch large turrets to use against aircraft, armor, and the other ships. The crashing of the turrets on the outside ruins would startle those who didn't know they were coming and where outside or close enough. The Servyus that escorted Fael settled in a sort of cantina. Their weapons of arm blasters, energy projectiles, swords, and attached twin pistols faced the aliens, but not in a way to cause panic or distress. The Servyus calmed down for a moment, but they seemed aggressive to the human-like beings.<br>
<br>
Fael began to speak, "Erys vhaly Tosihy (Darkness be Rited), I bid thee swell tidings on this wonderful day. It seems you are on the verge of the Ultoras sector, claim of the Solvarous Tezxis Kollam. I am Fael, adviser to the Umbra and authority on these premises. Please state your political entities. Your technologies seem different and by the actions you have taken. I'd imagine that you are strangers to each other." Fael pauses, "I'm sorry, but we Servyus do not accept foul human poisons. And while I understand your concerns to secrecy. It is our republic's policy that your name be known. I hope you understand. Our dealings with Humanity has been, grim and abysmal. With Humanity's greed and foul nature, we have grown almost <br>
<br>
The CaptIan of the Bastion replied, "Hello, you must be on that craft. This is a Bastion of  the Solvarous Tezxis Kollam. Attacking this vessel will yield your kind war and death. It be best you shut off your weapons before our ships handle that for you. Thank you." The captian was a shifting plate body with a triangular head. Constant mist and shards moved around him.<br>
<br>
Fael sparks his hand with a gem of dark fire. The room darkens quickly as the light screeches. Without a good amount of void energy, the light screeches in its death. Shadows lengthen, darkness moves in. The Servyus weren't sure what he was doing, most likely compounding the terrifying nature of his kind. Half of the them looked of unimaginable horrors. The cigarettes might be the only thing keeping anyone at ease.<br>

Daerys nodded, "It is my pleasure to have you. I do not mind curiosity, as it is a virtue in itself. Knowledge is the path to the singularity." Slowly, the crystal made complete rotation before projecting an image of Oberzirx winter. Daerys lowered his head beside the image.<br>
<br>
"While our homeworld of Oberzirx is normally volcanic, all crystals form in its bitterly cold winter from the atmospheric ventilation. Updrafts suck all of the heat from the surface. Faster than the volcanoes can replenish. The updrafts force heat into the heat to collect in the second atmosphere where particles of Lyriex, Corsik, and Requiem fall and condense into crystals as these. They fall as snow in this state, once on the ground they stick together and form one crystal as such with this one."<br>
<br>
"A combination of Lyriex and Requiem particles, this crystal is considered a Yander crystal with abilities to project communications signals, receive signals, and images with high efficiency. All crystals respond to energy matrixes, allowing my people to control them remotely. They hold some ability to process information and this allows these crystals to show images. Also, all crystals naturally bend gravitonal fields allowing it to float on its own."<br>
<br>
Yagdra slides off of his grandfather, flowing his hand through a red flashing cube. He bows his head shortly before looking back. He speaks in Umbronik, "Fael has made contact with humans. It seems one of the craft is preparing to attack." His voiced seemed worried.<br>

Daerys responded in Umbronik, "Accept their help request. Prevent conflict if they can. If not, make the Shadow proud. Fael has my backing, if it is needed. Fight." A light squad of Bastions, Osos, and Liticas would be sent to the position, being lead by a Havyortict file. Arriving as soon as they could.<br>
<br>
Daerys returned attention to Hate, "So, your queen shaped your kind. Why did she do so?" Daerys smiled, talking calmly. His tail wagged back and forth as the metal in the walls melded back into panels.

</blockquote>(Ok this was my fault, i rather got carried away and forgot to reply, only to lose it in the post, sorry for that, mind telling me in our message when you post? just want to make sure i see it)<br>
<br>
(yes i know there are a few things you don't know about, i have been unable to update the info but when it dose there will be A LOT, most is just history bits for show, only the new Faction "The Pulse" being a big change)<br>

<br>
Hate noded with acceptance as it was true, knowledge is the key to singularity, even so everything that we know and wield this day, curiosity is what drives people to Invent, research and know more than they can and it what defines a sentient being. Curiosity might have killed the cat, but we all know cats have nine lives. But Hate was caught off guard at the fact these crystals, are actually natural, not created, fascinating such a natural created infusion can have so many properties, hearing how there home world it, literally, rains crystals making them form. Hate knew all about habitable green planets possessing life but never a volcanic scorched world where natural communication,image display and manipulation could be possible when crystal formations rain from the sky, Hate wonder how there home world might be but sure enough he would not be able to stay for long. Mechanical but not completely, but beside the fact made complete sense knowing how they are pure metal and machine, not being effected much by the heat. "Magnificent indeed, a natural formed formation that posses many compatible abilities....now that is such a "anomaly" to us, never heard of it..." Hate slowly said drifting of in thoughts only to shake his head and clear his throat excusing himself from the sudden driven mind.<br>
<br>
The great dragon began to speak not to him, but to Daerys about a topic, he dint wish to intervene or be suspected of even hearing it, keeping silent as he sat there thinking about the crystals and there function, in fact he looked at the red flashing gleaming gem as it pulsated. Such simple looks yet deep inside...the glass has more than one can see. Soon the Umbra would come back and ask him why there queen, Hope, created the "Living" race. He thought for a moment, gathering what they all knew but as well preventing of mentioning "The Derelicts", all Cataphract units are strictly told to never speak there name to any foreign sentient beings unless told to, but even if such he decided to tell them, he could not. Forced by Orokin coding in his mechanical half made it rather impossible to speak anything related to there masters, secrecy and security was there top priority and for there proxy's.<br>
<br>
"Our queen, Hope, was the second of our kin to come to existence, King Valor was the first. Valor knew he could not continue the growth of us as a new specie and such with the "Forge", Queen hope was born. But such both could not do it alone, Hope took it upon herself to create us." He said now getting a bit more on point to the question "She shaped us in order to be perfect, with little to no flaws and creating us from her hands, not from factories or reproduction lines and self cloning. Queen Hope made us to what the growing empire needed most but as well to be unique." He looked though for a bit and continued "But the mayor reason why she shaped us is to grow at our own pace and become perfectly sentient, to be "Born" in to the world, not with codes or numbers" He answered only for the small drone to make a much more shorter version.<br>
<br>
"In a short summery from my library: "We are  the sons and daughters of our King and Queen, forged by hand to be perfect, left to learn and soon guided by rules,becoming who we are. The thought of becoming "Truly" sentient was to be organic, such, We are Machine and Flesh, with a "Brain" to craft patterns instead of complex processing as in binary recognition. I guess you can say we are...hmmm...strips of meat folded in tin foil, rather accurate" The drone spoke as Hate looked to the side at it, with a questioning look. Really? Strips of meat folded in tin foil? sure that was rather accurate,but rather offensive, in fact that was insulting, very. But the story was different if they could mention the Derelicts. Reason why they are organic is to not just become "Perfect sentient" but to be as close to there creators as possible, to continue the specie. Hope is the only Cataphract with looks most similar to a Derelict. There quest is to save the last few, resembling them and being them.</div>

Uncharted planet​</div>Kela and co noticed who the the people in front of her were and her squad mates seemed to take the cue with her.<span style="color: #00ff00"> "Kefalonian"</span> Her voice was with relief and then she turned around to the unknown who had the gall to sit down onto the eldritch furniture, aim weapons at them, and insult them in what seemed like a few seconds.<span style="color: #b35900"> "Ultoras sector? We're right next to Kefalonian space"</span> She looked behind her at the kefs for a split second then back at the robotic creatures. <span style="color: #0080ff">"Solvarous Tezxis Kollam? We are of-"</span> Suddenly the room felt darker and it was as if shadows started moving on their own. Was it eldritch energies at work?! Kela scanned the room and her eyes zeroed in on the cigarette. <span style="color: #00ff00">"What is happening?"</span> This time her voice was calm and her head shot toward the metallic man along with her plasma repeater.<br>
<br>
Up and above and inside the cruiser NeiFerius and the crew caught the sight of another craft entering real space and a threatening hail from the craft. NeiFerius signaled for someone to come up to her and whispered in their ear.<span style="color: #ff4d4d"> "Call in reinforcements from the nearest sector and contact our men on the ground, tell them to scout out the place"</span> the person then ran off and she stared at the screen used for communications and hails and chuckled. <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"Bastion of the Solvarous Tezxis Kollam?"</span> She crossed her arms and stared at the robotic monstrosity.<span style="color: #ff4d4d"> "let me give you a lecture on the general rules of first contact." </span>she threw up one finger <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"You do not threaten the unidentified craft who has not done anything other than hail you,"</span> Throwing up a second finger. <span style="color: #ff4d4d">"You do not power up your weapons and so obviously aim them at the craft unless you want them to respond in kind"</span> With these words the Cruiser's weapons came online, railguns aimed at both craft and missile/torpedo bay's opened, ready to fire. NeiFerius then went back to crossing her arms. waiting for reports. She had avoiding naming the imperiums name as it would bring questions she did not care to answer for.<br>
<br>
Back down on the surface the three squads who were making their way to the ruins stopped when they saw the spacecraft above then they got a transmission and order to tell them to see if there were any ground forces nearby. Using their psionic fields to stay invisible from Sensors they started to move closer to the ruins as it was really the only place on this barren world that would offer any sort of advantage they spotted a few weapons ontop of the mountain and reported back to the home cruiser. They continued to slowly make their way toward the ruins but stayed out of sight, not that it was hard.<br>
<br>
Back in the ruins the sudden surge of energy had seemingly activated some sort of mechanism within the temple, as the entire thing started to rumble and hum a otherworldly sound. <span style="color: #4dff4d">"oh shit"</span> Jack looked over to the entrance of the room only to see the stairs spinning in a wild manner. the rest of her squad lowered their arms and looked up and around the room they were in, <span style="color: #0080ff">"Well it seems whatever you did."</span> Jak'Chal looked over at the robots. <span style="color: #0080ff">"caused something to awaken." </span>Then suddenly everything went quiet, the door that the teams used to get in was blocked somehow and the door next to the Kef's was the only one leading anywhere, <i>down</i><br>

The white sand stretches beyond what the eye can see. The green waves peacefully splash against the beachhead. Ysaac grabs a rock and throws it into the beach. The ground begins to rumble under Commander Butcher's crew and Ysaac. A spire begins to rise out of the sand. Then walls. Then towers. The buttresses. It's a mighty height to behold. The whole castle is made out of the sand. The walls themselves must be at least fifty meters tall. Guards made out of seashells, sand, and seaweed form in whirlwinds, carrying halberds, spears, and pikes. They begin to patrol around the walls and the perimeter. Then the earth around the castle sinks. A darker variant of the sand fills the gap. A drawbridge made of seashells lowers for Ysaac and friends.</span></span></span>[/FONT]<br>

<span style="color: #b3b300">"My name's Ysaac. I live here. Who are you?" the boys asks, tilting his head slightly with intrigue. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff4d4d">The soldiers, they don't respond, no one responds for a long moment. A break in the silence appears "Butcher, we are apart of the Empire of Heydros..." none of the soldiers lower their weaponry</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300">"Why?" Ysaac asks. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff4d4d">"...why?"</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300"> "Why." Ysaac repeats.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff4d4d">"Why what?" The soldiers now keep their guns pointed at the child</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #b3b300">"Why do you let someone command you? We aren't commanded. We just are," Ysaac says.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ff4d4d"> "I don't know where you are going with this" Butcher responds</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)">"Do you wanna see my sand castle?" Ysaac says.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">The soldiers, and Butcher begin to step out of the crashed lander</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)"> Ysaac hums a light tune.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">"Where are we? What was the transmission that was here?"</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)">"You're in my kingdom," Ysaac responds, ignoring the second question.</span><br>

<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">"Well, what is this </span><i><span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">kingdom.</span></i><span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">"</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)">"It's mine!" Ysaac says, chuckiling afterward.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)"> Butcher turns back to his soldiers "Get us off this world. I don't want to handle some child."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)">"Aww... you can't leave without saying hi to Mama!" Ysaac exclaims.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">He turns back "I can do whatever I want on this unclaimed piece of land. Are you even human?"</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)"> "I'm Ysaac!" Ysaac says.</span><br>

<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)"> "I run fast!" Ysaac says excitedly.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">"You're an idiot."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)">"No, silly. I'm Ysaac!" Ysaac then bursts out laughing.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">Butcher motions towards Ysaac. </span><i><span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">"Open fire!"</span></i><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)">The bullets move through Ysaac. His image shimmers. "Wanna see my sand castle?!"(edited)</span><br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(166, 77, 255)">The Wraith of Zixmir came into real space above the planet butcher was on, the admiral, Kala’Tahuk was curious as to where the heydrian ship went suddenly and scanned the planet below. Detecting the heydrian ship Kala’Tahuk hailed the ship wondering what their business was. "Heydrian ship why are you in orbit of an unidentified planet?"</span><br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 77, 77)">The soldiers stare into perputal insanity. They start to bolt off in the other direction. Butcher stares at the hologram assumed entity</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(179, 179, 0)">"Hi. My name's Ysaac. Wanna see my sand castle?" Ysaac says. His smile grows bigger.</span><br>
<br>

Space battle debris, Ship derelict.​</div><br>
Teflos's heart was beating at the rate that would kill any normal man when he looked behind him only to see the sea of silver catching up to him.<span style="color: #4d4dff"> "Shit shit shit!" </span>he wasnt about to die today, unstrapping the powersource from his back he quickly turned around and threw an IED with the powersource and tried to get as far away from the sliver shit as soon as possible. once he was a few hundred meters away from where he was sure he left off the IED he detonated it and felt a loud rumbling behind him. he didn't dare look back because infront of him he saw what looked like a hanger space and open space. was he finally free from this nightmare?<br>
<br>
Outside the ship the pirates fired back at the mysterious derelict ship that shot one of theirs down their small caliber guns not really doing anything. It was as expected, they knew the capabilities of their weapons however it wasn't their weapons that was their main way of attack. pirate saboteurs ran to the hangers and got inside their specialized boarding craft, these small ships were meant to ram into ship hulls for their saboteurs with explosives to do real damage on the inside. The strike craft flew from the hangers and straight toward the massive ship, with their larger ships providing ineffective cover fire.<br>

<br>
The two gladiators on Borislavs team where almost in shock at what they saw, two gladiators lay broken before him all with a single punch. One of the gladiators on Borislavs team had just been killed via a gladius to the throat, however this left his killer open long enough for Cicero, the retiarius to jab his trident deep in the mans side, killing him.<br>
<br>
The fight was over quickly as Boris dispatched the last opposing gladiators with ease, of course the crowd erupted into cheer, chanting "Cestus" over and over again, a Cestus being a fist fighting gladiator. After the battle Cicero stopped Borislav and asked him "Who are you? and why have you come here?" he poured them both some wine "Men don't simply show up from the sky and forsake their past life to then live one of bloodshed" he took a swig of wine and then leaned in "And we have heard the whispers of this danger you speak of, so care to explain?"<br>

			However, one day while the proctors where walking through the camp they were approached by a young boy in training , he was about thirteen, he approached the proctors and said "you said that The soldier needs return to the soil and become a farmer and then you said For soldiering often relies on hatred" the boy then paused and said "But what if the farmer is attacked? he has laid down his weapons and so cannot defend himself, and if soldiering relies on hatred then why does the legion fight for the protection and love of the empire?"

"A good question, boy. I will remark to your superiors that you show intellectual promise." Remov said, roughing the small boy's hair. <br>
<br>
"You see, child. You know nothing of actual soldiering. It can be, and often is, an honorable thing. Yet you have never looked into the eyes of another man who you have endeavored to kill. There is a trait, inborn," he poked the boy's chest lightly, "that makes us shudder at the very thought of plunging a knife into someone who we think is like us, with dreams, goals, and motivations. To kill someone like ourselves is similar to committing suicide. It seems to us pointless and reckless. So in order to kill, oftentimes we must convince ourselves that we despise the other. That they are fundamentally evil and we are fundamentally good. We hate them, because we must." <br>
<br>
"There is, of course, the inverse of this situation. Sometimes it is the case that people, or nations, through their success breed jealousy and hate among their neighbors that is not deserved. And the princes of the neighboring nations must convince their people to go to war for wounded pride, thus they tell them: 'these are your enemies, for which you have cause to hate because they are evil.' " <br>
"And so there you stand, on the precipice of hate, with your honest gains confronted by a hateful people. That is when you beat your plowshares back into swords, and defend what is yours. Not with a mind of hate, but with a mind of compassion and a longing that the fray might end." <br>
<br>
"Thus, it is true, to understand the Text you must know where you stand. Do you serve a jealous prince or a prosperous people?" <br>
<br>
"Thus endeth the lesson."</div>

They had little time to deal with the thief as more intruder came but  they  would find themselves torn apart from the inside as  the microscopic machines  burred though their vital organs. The men attacked would simply be standing there one moment then second latter doubled over as they unknowingly breathed in their death. <br>
<br>
Outside  the reinforcements came in the form of ships, more int he same make of the derelicts but unlike it they were fully functional.  The ship  didn't try to hail the pirates  and instead opened fire   as more and more ships arrived, more and more apparently there was no kill like overkill for them. The  ships would  destroy all ships around including the one the treasure hunter  had come in as all life except for him was purged  for  daring to attack their betters. <br>
<br>
When the ships where little more than molten slag hurling through the endless void of space the silver tide would once more come for the intruder. This however it didn't come to attack him and instead the silver liquid started to take a very humanoid shape. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><b>The Valor Estate<br>
Kefalonian Countryside near Ferraris<br>
</b>​</div>It was snowing hard on an early autumn day and the crunching of boots was the only sound for miles. Two figures in long coats and fur hats could be seen trouncing through the snow with rifles tucked under their arms, one tall and the other short. <br>
<br>
"Papa," said the short one, "do you think we'll shoot one?" <br>
<br>
"I don't know, <i>drashinka</i>," replied the tall man affectionately, "but we certainly won't get one if you speak too loudly." <br>
<br>
"Yes, Papa," whimpered the little one. <br>
<br>
After a long walk, the pair came to a clearing with a frozen lake. A few strange, furry water-fowl-like creatures scampered across the ice and dug into the nearby snowdrifts to hide themselves. The man dropped to one knee, which the child imitated. <br>
<br>
"Do you see it?" <br>
<br>
"No, where is it?" <br>
<br>
"There," the elder pointed, "behind the snowpack. He's grazing." <br>
<br>
The little one raised his rifle, which he leveled with some difficulty. In the crosshairs materialized an animal similar to an elk in size and overall structure, having six great cloven hooves and an impressive antler rack. The creature was as white as the snow, except for it's eyes which were beady, dark, and endless. <br>
<br>
"Alright, Pavlov. Patience, wait for the shot to line up." The older man coached. <br>
<br>
A shot rang out and echoed through the forest. <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Valor Estate<br>
Dining Hall<br>
</b>​</div>A thousand years ago, when the hall had been built of masonry and wood, it hosted the first fall retreat of the Valor Family. Usually residing in the capital, the royal family took an annual pilgrimage to the countryside to live in rustic comfort. Yet these days, simple pleasures were hard to enjoy as the business of the Empire followed them wherever it was needed. <br>
<br>
Grand Commander Kelius was not a family man, and being surrounded by King Ellisov's seven children was somewhat irksome to him. As the adolescent girl chartered on and on about something inane, the general moved his soup around with his spoon. The King, a kindly-looking Kefalonian with a bushy mustache and of advancing age, noticed this and pressed him on the matter. <br>
<br>
"Kelius, matters of state can wait. You need not ruin your supper." <br>
<br>
"Yes, my liege." Kelius mumbled before scooping some of the soup into his mouth. The meat was unusually tender, gamey, and heavy. <br>
<br>
"What exactly is this soup, sir?" <br>
<br>
"Snow-beast, of course." Ellisov said, then motioned towards the youngest boy, a lad of perhaps twelve who was sitting next to him. Pavlov, the little boy, was the spitting image of his father save for the mustache and freckles. He had a long, kind face and droopy, sad blue eyes. <br>
<br>
Kelius smiled weakly. "Oh, you shot this, Pavlov?" <br>
<br>
The boy shrugged. "My papa told me what to do, all I did was pull a trigger." <br>
<br>
"Being a bit modest, aren't we lad?" His father interjected. <br>
<br>
"Don't say it as if it's a bad thing, El." His wife interjected from his side. The King smiled then turned to Kelius. <br>
<br>
"Alright, we've had supper. Now Kelius can tell me what he so desperately needed to tell me." <br>
<br>
Kelius rose to his feet all of a sudden, and followed the King into his study before Ellisov locked and bolted the door. Inside the study, Kelius moved to the window and stared out. <br>
<br>
"How is he doing, sir?" <br>
<br>
"Who?" <br>
<br>
"The boy." Kelius replied, matter-of-factly. <br>
<br>
Ellisov sat down in his large leather chair and took a handkerchief from his pocket. <br>
<br>
"The doctors aren't quite sure what's the matter with him." He said after a long silence. "I talk to some that think he will grow to adulthood but no later, and some say he will be dead within a few months." The King artfully wiped a few tears from below his eyes, his face beginning to contort into a grieved expression. <br>
<br>
Kelius sighed. "We've done all we can do for him. The computers have gone over his epigenetic code and found no abnormalities." <br>
<br>
"I know, I know." The King said harshly. "But enough of that. What is the issue, Kelius? Why did you come down here and interrupt my time with my family?" <br>
<br>
"It's the Armed Forces Ministry, my Lord. They are afraid that we are not putting enough resources towards military preparedness. There are rumors of a growing machine intelligence state near the southern borders. Depending on their nature, we could find ourselves embroiled in war in the Hinterlands." <br>
<br>
The King nodded. "Yes, well uhm, tell them to send me a copy of the budget and I'll see what the staff can't do." <br>
<br>
Kelius moved to the door. <br>
<br>
"Oh, and Kelius." <br>
<br>
"Yes?" <br>
<br>
Ellisov smiled, weakly. "He looks up to you. Perhaps you might take him to work with you on occasion. Show him the ships and the flashing battalions. You know how young boys love displays of guns and machismo." <br>
<br>
Kelius smiled back. "I, I will see what I can do, sir." <br>
<br>
He unbolted the door and shut it behind him with a soft thud.</div>

Fael noticed the change, softly laughing as the held the gem in his hand. The "Velor" intrigued him, what could be happening? However, the Servyus's view of humanity seemed suspended. Fael softly left the gem in his pocket. His suit melded into tentacles, swimming in the weird air. His hollow eye sockets stared at Edderov. "Why are those who emulate Humanity so afraid of the dark?" He laughs softly before walking slowly. "Does it seem fitting that your guns point at me when an advantage isn't quite clear? These ruins feel of things I've felt between the lines of dimensions. The Dark fire will always linger. Many things will come to it, as it is consistent. The light, so easy to corrupt. Maybe, you will understand that the Void lies in all Servyus. That and the Omi that you saw, ate the light so quickly and easily. Naturally, a beast will be interested in the Omi. Why it was a matter of time before it would find something to take an interest."<br>
<br>
Fael looked into the grouping, "Let us descend. While you cower at the darkness, we shall greet it kindly. After all, the darkness is our essence, as the light may be to you." Fael motioned his escort forward and calmly descended down. <br>
<br>
On the Bastion, the tone seemed different. The captain constantly re-tried communication to Fael, yet nothing seemed to work. His eyes faced her, "You have no room Human. While you blast me for conflict, your race is infested with hypocrisy on this regard. When my people suffered from a pull of the Void to "Earth", your people attacked, pillaged, and mocked my kind." He showed his shoulder, showing a glowing mark of a sky of fire over a pyramid. "Suffering and peaceful, my people gave chances and failed to make combat with your kind. And on the final day, I lost my dearest brother to your ancestors. Watch him die before me, the woman threatening me as I watched him die. DO you expect to trust your race? When all I know is pain, rage, and distrust? Every piece of Humanity we have encountered, a simple greedy little empire that loves picking on us. A race of unity, love, and tolerance. Peaceful provocations with your race have been dismal. Backstabbing and secretive. From what I see, I see armed weapons. Maybe it is not true, I hope, but I will not take a chance on your kind."<br>
<br>
The Captain looked down before continuing, "Ashivark... that was his name. Suddenly, the mood changed. Now, we looked into your fears. How easy it was to adapt to them. Then we returned the favor, becoming the nightmares you know today as Vampires, Zombies, Devils, and so on. Do you understand now, that you cannot teach me anything? When I have seen is greed, I hope you begin to see it too. Maybe, instead of rising to aggression with a faction that has short fuses, you should be more understanding of such things. That all races perceive your twisted world and technological view."<br>

Alpha Station, Paradise district, Club​</div>Valvet takes another sip of her drink<br>
<br>
Rhys took a seat next to Valvet, placing his cap on the counter.<span style="color: #00b300"> "Good,"</span> He said, before he took a quick look around to ensure no one was listening, and even if they were, the music quickly drowned it out. <span style="color: #00b300">"So, looking to join, huh?"</span><br>
<br>
 Vavlets eyes narrowed at the man,<span style="color: #00ffff"> "Not giving me a name huh?"</span><br>
<br>
 Rhys paused for a second, before he let out a loose chuckle. <span style="color: #00b300">"Riiiiight. I'm Daniel Rhys."</span><br>
<br>
 <span style="color: #00ffff">"well Daniel,"</span> her voice was slightly mocking <span style="color: #00ffff">"Am i looking to join what?"</span> she turned to face him in a chillax manner.<br>
<br>
Rhys leaned on the counter with one arm. <span style="color: #00b300">"Join what?"</span> He repeated. <span style="color: #00b300">"The Colonial Freedom Front, of course. The righteous freedom fighters who battle against the evil United Earth Government." </span>He said, complete with an arm movement<span style="color: #00b300">. "It was in the job description. If you don't know, then why are you here?" </span>He asked, before leaning in.<span style="color: #00b300"> "Unless you're some kind of spy, of course."</span> Rhys joked.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #00ffff">"now what kind of spy would look as outlandish as me?" </span>Valvet smiled and leaned on the counter aswell. <span style="color: #00ffff">"I can't stand by and watch a people be oppressed by a tyrant." </span>looking into Daniel's eyes she could already tell what kind of questions he would have roaming around his head, <span style="color: #00ffff">"If you cant tell by the accent, im a kefalonian trader."</span> Taking another sip out of her drink she looked back at him.<span style="color: #00ffff"> "Frankly im disgusted that my people wont do anything to end this war of yours."</span><br>
<br>
 <span style="color: #00b300">"A Kefalonian, huh?" </span>Rhys asked, raising his eyebrow, before he smiled.<span style="color: #00b300"> "Well, I'll be damned. You're the first I've met." </span>He folded his legs, placing one on top of the other in a relaxed pose. "<span style="color: #00b300">What exactly are you working towards when you join the CFF? I mean, our affairs don't concern you guys."</span><br>
<br>
 <span style="color: #00ffff">"what do you mean your affairs don't concern me?" </span>Crossing her legs as he did she looked at him with a more timid smile.<span style="color: #00ffff"> "Wars often make trade difficult does it not? And besides."</span> She put her drink down on the counter as her eyes stray downward to the floor.<span style="color: #00ffff"> "I had a friend and a good busniess partner." </span>Her voice became more soft. <span style="color: #00ffff">"he, disappeared. After making a cargo run on one of your planets." </span>Sighing she looked at Daniel with more determined eyes.<span style="color: #00ffff"> "i want the UEG to pay for their sins so maker help me" </span>Valvet felt a tinge of cringe on the inside when she said their gods name but she shook it off as she was used to doing fake aliases.<br>

Uncharted planet<br>​</div>Kela and the rest got tired of the robotic mans speeches about after his first sentence was over and followed the Kefalonians with two still pointing their weapons at the robots. the other three were looking forward, quietly listening to the structure move all around them. The moans, creaks, and little scratches getting on the nerves of everyone and it seemed to get louder the deeper they went. Jak'Chal used his superior psionic abilities compared to his friends to block out whatever effect the robot had on light so that the kefalonians could see and not trip in a not so safe and stable eldritch construct that neither of them new about. <br>
<br>
Above NeiFerius was basically blocking out the bastion's captain or commander, something out earth, humans and other nonsense. A few seconds after he was done NeiFerius was suprised that he COULD stop.<span style="color: #ff4d4d"> "Ah is your little rant about humans over? i thought you'd never stop talking about something as irrelevant as that i dont know about an earth and i am not human."</span> She pulled her facemask off and revealed her ReiConess face. there were two slits of where the nose should be and large milky eyes, her skin was a shade of grey and she seemed to have a few scars and wrinkles. Putting the facemask back on she grinned behind it. Of course she didnt really care and was just simply buying time for reinforcements to arrive from the nearest imperium controlled star system. Then an assistant came up to her telling her of ground turrets and defenses planet side. She nodded and telepathically told the assistant to tell their ground specialists to destroy the guns once they fire.<br>
<br>
Down on the ground they continued to get closer going at the minimum distance they can get to the guns, they did so taking their time not to be spotted they were a mere 10 people afterall and they were specialized to killing eldritch monsters not robots although their psionics would probably make short work of both guns and robots they knew doing so premptively would risk diplomatic sanctions and start a fight above with very very large guns. <br>
