16:40:01 [-Aurelia-] Reign Of Fire : Caledon Low Orbit It has been a sight to see no doubt as the bright light had heralded the arrival of another of the massive Lerulian class vessels in orbit above Caledon, although unlike its sister ship the Revelation of Fire the Reign of Fire had for the most part kept silent aside from the standard IFF friend or foe recognition to nearby vessels over the last day or so and had mostly attended to its own affairs leaving the Revelation to do the majority of interaction with the Caledonians as it had settled into low orbit in preparation to dock with one of the many orbital platforms. "You ever get that system figured out?" shed ask as she looked over a small data pad before setting it down on the desk infront of her and looking to the other woman standing infront of her...such was the palace life she always did her best to escape from, reading reports of how her ship was doing instead of being up there with the vessel where in her mind she should be. Word had already reached her of the Reign of Fire's arrival the day prior and shed schedualed it to dock with civilian platform 17 in orbit, given the crew in her mind could no doubt use some rest and relaxation the massive civilian platform would offer after thier most recent tour of duty patrolling the edge of the Lerathan Quarentine zone. What happened next would happen fast and without warning as the Reign Of Fire's systems would momentarily blip for a moment as it approached the docking platform. Without warning 8 of its Quantum torpedo launchers would fire, sending thier payloads streaking towards the planet below followed by 12 of the Chroniton launchers making 20 torpedoes in all hurtling towards the planets surface in a scatter pattern directed at Ptolus, granted there were orbital defenses but with thier speed and the number, not to mention the sheer suprise of the torpedos comming from an a long time ally there would no doubt be at least one make it through to the city. It wasnt over though as at the same time 3 of its Heavy energy beams slammed into the orbital station at near point blank range along with 5 medium beams and 14 of its light beams in what seemed to be an effort to destroy the largely civilian target. Unusual but not suprisingly 3 of its deadly patricle projectors would burst from the ventral side of the vessel, ripping into any sections of the platform below the vessel in thier firing arc. 24 point defense beams would streak out from it, randomly acquiring any smaller civilian craft to destroy that would be within range or fighters should any be near, with that the great vessel would of unloaded a majority of what it could per volley, though not every launcher had fired or beam...and the dreaded omega torpedo had not been fired...What was this unprovoked assualt? Kallean military was within the city, and many at the palace as part of Aurelia's own entourage, was this a takeover!?
17:02:09 [Codex] "We had transports out there," said a voice to the Governor-Ambassador on the bridge of the ship, cutting through the called out and repeated orders. A man in simple black pants, shirt, and jacket stopped nearby, remaining a few respectful paces behind Caedras. Codex was representing one of the Federation's numerous corporations, Provectus Genetics, a lowely secretary they had sent to observe the expansion of their business into the region. The man stood with arms clasped behind his back, pale blue eyes staring out from his tattooed face - tattoos that marked him as property and certainly not one of the Citizens - as he watched the explosions in the distance through the ports. "When you are able to, we would appreciate it if you could ascertain the status of our vessels and cargo, sir. It would be a shame to lose our first shipments of medical supplies and personnel." Codex spoke in that odd way some of the corporation's property did, never with an "I" or "me", a way to show they had no identity beyond what the company gave them. His voice was cold as well, as if he cared as much for the goods as he might for the people dying out there.
17:11:47 -Aurelia- looked up as the shockwaves would no doubt shake the city, given each torpedo's detonation yeild was the atmospheric equivlent of a megaton, though they were capable of much higher yields given they were spatial weaponry and though the city would survive there would be impacts in the areas around it revealing the terrifying nature of spatial weaponry when used in orbit. "Get me a Sit-" shed not have time to finish as the teasm arrival would only see her and the other Kallean women in the palace and city disapear in golden ripples of energy as each teleportation matrix was recalled to thier respective vessel. Hostile fire was repaid in kind by the Reign Of Fire's commander as it began targeting every civilian vessel or softer target in its radius to inflict as many casualties as possible in the moments before the two vessels would be engulfed in bright flashes of light, given the Revelation had been in its standard high orbit at the time. The Reign of Fire wasnt done as it tore into its rift sending subspace shockwaves surging out over the station...such a manuver in such close proximity even the greatest vessels would have thier hulls snapped by such a force and while one could not see the outcome it was likely even the Reign Of Fire as the source vessel had no doubt sustained damaged as it rifted back to Kallean territory. "Evasive Action! Prepare all Centurions for combat and engage rift drive when ready!" shed shout out her order as she made her way to her command chair to sit, always the last vessel out, that was the Revelation's way as it prepared to leave system, no doubt with the bulk of the Caledonian armada heading its way at this point as it sped away from the planet in preparation for rift engagement.
17:29:41 [Ashrienne] [] Things had been very qiuet; up until the moment where everything broke down. The technicians and officers aboard were working frantically, trying to reboot systems ship-wide.. While they had not been targetted for a full out assault by the looks it, the ship had sustained damage due to stray fire " Commander.. We can't remain here.. Many of our systems are still offline due to maintenance.. We're not fit for battle yet.. " Spoke the female at the helm; who despite her words; did not panic " We have to pull out, now.. Get us clear of the fighting.. The last thing we need with the Queen on board is for her to die " After those words were spoken by the commander; the Queen returned to the command deck " Status report " She ordered before the technician upon the command deck spoke " My Queen - Shields are offline - hull damage to approximately twenty percent of the ship has been sustained.. We have some breaches but I'm managed to contain them for now.. Our Drive core is offline, as are our weapon systems.. We need to pull out now, otherwise the next barrage of stray fire could completely cripple us " When the status report was issued; Ashrienne sighed and shook her head slowly " Get us out of here.. We still have Auxillery Systems online yes? " " Yes my Queen.. They will be enough to take us to safety.. But we won't be able to help defend the planet " Passing off a sigh, Ashrienne lowered her head " May the Emperor forgive me for my action... Get us out of here.. NOW! " With that command given; the Ebonith began to turn and move out of range of the fighting; despite the damage suffered []
17:35:03 [CommanderCaedras] "Noted, Adjutant," he called out to Codex, though there was perhaps the slightest of wry tones as he brought up the tactical map on his hud, hand flicking about to move it and interact. "Recall whatever vessels we have to the nearest vessels not engaged with the enemy. The rest should head planetside for the nearest settlement beyond the capitol," he ordered, the words coming from him with casual grace and ease as he observed the battle and the two vessels attempting to depart. Kalleans? What could the Kalleans want with this... Meanwhile, Federation interceptor ships began to chase the torpedoes, one of them firing upon it at a decent distance but underestimating the blast radius. It was consumed, and a few other vessels damaged but the chatter on the comms was quick and the other fighters began to adjust for range as they chased torpedoes. Caedras looked more like a spider, perched upon the command deck, observing his web of information and relaying it to Caledonian commanders and vessels. CommanderCaedras did note upon the radar the nearby cruiser of certain familiarity attempting to return online, despite the sustained damage. It took a few seconds, but hesitation dissipated quickly and he looked to Codex. “The manifests can wait until after the battle. Let the insurance hounds chase the corporations. For the moment, One Flight, with us. We are covering the Ebonith while it prepares for launch. Hail her, and let her know of our intent.” The Federation cruiser shifted and moved to cover the Ebonith's escape from the immediate danger before angling to return back themselves. “Your Eminence, safe journeys,” he called on the comm before saluting and returning his attention to the battle at hand when possible.
17:46:29 Codex remained silent as Caedras spoke to him, with his head slightly bowed in acquiesence. As his corporation's representative, his presence there was an unofficial one, with no real power or influence. Codex merely reminded Caderas of the power and influence that his masters did wield elsewhere, and the money. The attacking Reign of Fire unleashed another wave of death and destruction. Provectus had certainly suffered some losses by this point; their transport ships were minimally shielded and slow, as there had seemed to be no need for more defensive and expensive measures to deliver their goods here. Codex looked pointedly at Caedras as the vessel unleased it's shockwaves, one of his eyebrows raised, "If there is anything remaining of our transports, we would be surprised. And this was a very large shipment, in an attempt to make closer ties with the planet's inhabitants." Then he turned back to the view, memorizing every detail.
18:22:25 [DG_GM] .:To say that the Caledonians were less than pleased was an understatement, the attack had been completely uncalled for, and it was only thanks to the preparations taken after the Viking attack that casualties were low and that Ptolus was kept safe. While High Command and the Emperor were organizing the fleets for pursuit, they were also wondering what had been the motivation for the attack. Some believed that the target had been Aurelia, possibly an attempt to take her out of the line of succession. Others believed that it was a radical sect that believed that alliances with others was heresy. Whatever the case, Aurelia would likely know that retaliation would be swift and brutal, as the attack would have to be answered in kind, unless Aurelia and her closest advisors could placate the growing fury of the Caledonians.:.<E>
18:32:15 -Aurelia- was about to order the rift drive engaged as the Ebonith came up on the view screen, "Scan that vessel and bring us to intercept!" shed order as the massive Revelation of Fire quickly moved in on the seemingly defenless Ebonith and although the Federation vessel would no doubt fire upon them they would be disregarded for the few moments it would take as Aurelia keyed in a few commands...unless she did anything to stop it Ash would find herself feeling rather peculiar as a golden ripple of energy would over take her figure and shed appear moments later on the command bridge of the Revelation of Fire as Aurelia looked down to see her. "Engage Rift!" shed order as moments later the Revelation would vanish in a flash of white light as it appeared in Kallean territory. Word had already spread of what had transpired and although no Kallean vessels had moved into Caledonian space the battle fleets were already being brought to full alert in preparation for a possible Caledonian offensive...or attempt at rather, though with the Kallean tendency to burn entire worlds regardless of population size...She doubted they would risk such possible casualties in favor of an offensive into Kallean space, unless of course they liked loosing planets. "Alright Ash, dont worry. No harm will come to you but I needed some assurance they wont pursue." shed inform her as information begun being passed between the Revelation and Reign.
18:42:03 [Ashrienne] [] Aboard the frigate, Ashrienne was giving commands to her crew; who assessed the damage they had taken and went to work repairing it " Are we out of range? " Spoke the L`Shai`Lae Queen from the command seat " Yes m'lady... We are receiving a message as well " " Alright " With that said, she would see Caedras before a warm smile form upon her face " Caedras, my thanks for the assist.. Apologies from pulling you away from the fight.. I was --- " Ashrienne paused as the message continued " My Queen; there is a strange energy signature resonating from that ship on approach " " What is it doing? All hands prepare for battle.. If we are going to die, then we will die in ---- " Suddenly, and without warning; Ashrienne disappeared and suddenly re-appeared upon another ship " What the? " It was at that moment she heard a familiar voice and turned " Aurelia!!! What's going on? No harm? " For a brief moment she was somewhat confused; until it hit her " I am a prisoner? I demand to know the meaning of this? " She spoke with a tone of command - she was a Queen after all; and as such, she had a right to know why she had been taken by force, if that's what this was. Meanwhile, Caedras could see complete disarray on the command deck of Ashrienne's Frigate, the officers and crew trying to desperately figure out what had just happened to their Queen []
18:50:15 CommanderCaedras chuckled a bit as he turned towards Codex. "I believe our goodwill has been made abundantly clear to the Caledonian's, Adjutant. The companies can take their complaints and damage losses to the Kalleans." The reports were less than uplifting and he reviewed them grimly until Ashrienne's face appeared. The last thing she's have seen was Caedras smile before that golden glow tore Ash away, leaving her crew in disarray. The Federation cruiser fired at the Kalleans, and exchanged volleys but they were gone just as quickly as they'd attacked. But he knew that teleportation technology. "Comm the Emperor. Alert him that the Kalleans have Her Majesty, Ashrienne captive," he said quietly, anger brewing. But he turned his attention to the suriviors. There was work to be done until new orders arrived.
18:56:39 Codex grunted at the comment of taking the company's claims to the Kalleans. The odds were if he tried after this assault and betrayal, that Codex would be destroyed without a second thought. "We will be in communication with the Board to advise them of the situation, sir," Codex said, bowing his head before Caedras once again. And to seek further orders. A simple observation mission had suddenly become far more complex, and given his masters' past efforts towards those who would move against them, he assumed that he would soon be acting as more than a simple adjutant. The Federation's corporations were a conservative lot, slow to change their ways though they had made some efforts in recent years, but they still engaged in their dangerous games against one another and other threats. If he was deployed against Kallean targets, it would not be the first time. Codex retreated from the bridge, eager to make his call and to deliver his report in private.
20:16:40 [Ashrienne] [] The winged female stared almost coldly at Aurelia as the Kallean female advanced towards her. Even as she spoke and kept moving towards Ashrienne; the L`Shai`Lae would stand there in utter silence still; until Aurellia went to take her hand. Ashrienne would grab the Kallean female by the throat and hissed coldly at her " How am I expected to take you at your word you traitor " She mentioned; turning her gaze upon the bridge crew to see if they would react to her outburst.. She hoped they would, so Ashrienne would have a reason to do something she would not regret " Give me a valid reason, Aurelia; why I shouldn't kill you for taking me in such a way? Also explain why I should simply 'play along' with this? And what is stopping me from tearing through this ship and destroying everyone I come across? HOW DARE YOU take me prisoner.. " She leaned closer and stared coldly into Aurelia's eyes " I trusted you " She spoke before tossing the woman away from her " You have one chance to convince me not to destroy you, your crew; and this ship... Do make it good, for in situations such as this, I am not known for my patience " []
20:32:33 -Aurelia- looked almost aprehensive at the woman's gaze towards her as she approached, well at least until she went for her hand only to be grabbed by the throat given she would make no move to counter the woman as she felt the grip tighten on her skin, though in truth that alone should of shown trust given she could of easily of powered up her shield but had not. Her bridge crew did infact react as the metal click of centurions readying thier auto cannons on the woman and the many distinct hisses as energy blades flashed to light from the other women...though none fired given Aurelia had been quick to raise her hand to stay thier protective nature. "If you truly think me your enemy after what we have been through then do it, youd be doing me a favor rather than living with the betrayl of it." shed manage to respond before she would be thrown, landing in a crumple on the floor where she would stay aside from leaning up onto her arms. "Send for the River Otter, should you wish you and I are going back to Caledon and provided they do not destroy us upon entry we shall see just where this goes."
20:39:11 [Ashrienne] [] The seemingly enraged female thought on her words, and then turned her head before sighing.. Something really did not sit right with her, and she knew that. But without information, there was little she could do. Turning upon her heels once again she advanced towards Aurelia and knelt down to her before blinking once again " No.. I will not return " She spoke calmly before sighing and looking dismayed with herself " I know better than to let anger rule my judgement, and for that I apologise.. " Rising to her feet, she would bring Aurelia up with her and shook her head " You say I am your hostage, yet you give me freedom aboard your ship.. That in itself does not make sense.. If I were truely a hostage, then I would be confined... No, there must be another reason.. " gentle, she settled her hands lightly upon Aurelia's shoulders before nodding " I need to know why this happened? What started that fight?" She would approach this carefully of course " I have very little information.. My ship was under maintenance, and there we were fired upon.. " She had every right to be frustrated; but would not take such frustrations out on Aurelia " I dislike not knowing what is going on... " She hoped Aurelia could forgive such an outburst from the usually composed L`Shai`Lae []
20:41:57 Aavis-Jiun Second assault, everyone had got up and realized this woman was not going to go down easy. The one with the somewhat wounded leg, stood back, grabbed another and they strategized. Which gave Aavis a bad feeling, for some reason. The other two just wanted to get in there, and so they did, attempting a tag team again, rushing from either side. Aavis, would wait, it seemed to obvious. They both lunged in at the same time. Dumb move. She threw two lefts in one swing for the one on her left, one to strike, one to grab the blocking arm she already saw at the ready, The other, she was already turning to, her leg hikes up, bringing her shin up next to her face. Impact with the hand, her leg smashed down, catching a dodging man in the collar. She was in mid twist, so the angled swing pushes attacker b to the right, and her grip pulled attacker A right on by her. " NOPE! " She barked, letting go to re-stance he- SHIT, her eyes bought a bright light from the two in the distance. On short notice, she twisted with a tottal loss of footing back to the left, in time to bring three hands up in an act as iff she was going to clap all three from a wide star to the center. However.. The bright light, a ball of pressured flame, of all things.. Was caught between that clap, a force crush of sorts, mashed the air, smothered the fire out, and as she starts to fall, she pushed out, a force push! Chasing a grip, talent there. The heat and the shock both would strike the caster.. Though she over-did it a bit, he flew across the barracks about thirty feet before hitting the ground and sliiiiiiiiiding into a three bump tumble.. stop. " That was cheap! " She stomped her foot. " Serves you right! I don't know magic, but I know the force. I wanted a fair hand to hand so I wouldn't overkill the use of my power, it's a bad habit. But it's yer fault! You could have burned the fuck out of me you ASSHOLE! " She started a pounding march straight for the dudes partner, which until seeing the feral expression on the woman, thought it was kinda funny. He went quickly to try and guard and retreat, but Aavis made a sudden lunge and grabbed him by the head with two hands. The other two, started rapid punching for the face and stomach randomly.. Right up till a more experienced officer rushed in and dominated her with holds, pinned her face into the ground. " Get off! " She struggled. " OOOOOFFFF! " She struggled harder, then a sudden pause. She went all sorts of docile all the sudden. " ... .... . .... Shit.. Ok.. Lemme go I'm fine. ... I have... outbursts. It's a force sensitive thing! I swear. I'm good. " Slowly, she was let up. She breaths heavy, gets up, dusts off. " I think we've all had enough of me. Ahem. " Tugging her clothes straight. " Toodles. " Off she goes.
21:03:01 -Aurelia- nodded as she looked up to Ash, she probably should of known it wouldnt be as easy as just showing up again given probably every gun in the Caledonian home system would no doubt target them on approach. "There is nothing to apologise for, Id of done the same probably had I been where you are now." shed would softly respond as she rose with the woman while using her right hand to fix a strand of hair that had fallen loose when shed been tossed. "In truth you are no more my hostage than I am yours. I just didnt want to face this alone, If you wanted we could send an encrypted coordinates to your vessel for them to redevouse in our own space." shed explain as the Centurions sensing the threat had abaited would return to thier own work along with the women whod been at thier stations. "No one really knows at this point. The Caledonians and sensors insist the Reign Of Fire shot first, though the Reign Of Fire's sensor logs indicated they were fired upon prior to their own firing so something bigger is going on here."shed explain as she moved to a nearby station to activate a holo playback of what had transpired. "Our own sensors were corrupted for the first part of the engagement so our log is incomplete. I dont like being in the dark but until more information can be obtained we are deeming the Caledonian Empire hostile and preparing for a possible incursion should they grow bold enough." shed explain as it ended. "So...you forgive me snatching you up?" shed ask with a soft smirk.
21:06:51 Emperor_Winter-Wolf had retreated deep into the mountains north of Ptolus, where he could let loose his rage without putting anyone in harms way. From the vantage point of the city and even from orbit, a massive pillar of white hot fire could be seen as he transformed into his half-dragon battle form. He was roaring at the sky as he let his rage vent to its fullest extent, and he had made sure that he had sealed his ability to create Rift Gates, since in his enraged state, he would not have the ability to undo the seals until he had calmed down. He had given Ashrienne a necklace, one that allowed her to sense his emotions, so she would feel his rage. This would also serve as a helpful indicator of when Aurelia could return to explain things to him, and find out what had happened.<E>
21:16:29 [Ashrienne] [] The winged female listened very carefully to the words that Aurelia spoke; and as such, Ashrienne did not remain angry any further. In fact, she had returned to her usual level of calm as Aurelia tried to explain the situation to the best of her ability " No.. They are not to get involved.. The Ebonith sustained heavy damage from the stray weapons fire.. Besides.. If you require help, and you don't want to face this alone, then I am the best choice to assist you " She responded before looking at the playback. Ashrienne looked distressed at what she was seeing; and while she only had a small amount of information; she nodded " So, someone is trying to invoke a war between between the Kallean's and the Caledonian's, and both sides fell for it.. Impressive... " Suddenly however her head hurt; and this caused her to lean against the console " I'm sorry I... " She took a few steady breaths, and tried to focus herself, but because of the feeling she was sensing, it was difficult.. So much rage and anger.. Why did she have to feel such things.. Ashrienne closed her eyes and set a hand upon Aurelia's shoulder for support, before collapsing to the ground, having been overwhelmed by the intensity of the feelings she had been flooded with []
21:26:03 -Aurelia- nodded, "Understood, though I hope the Caledonians do not accuse them of being on our side in this conflict, given War at this point seems inevitable." shed sigh as she looked over to the viewscreen. "I cant thank you enough for being with me through this, though I must say there are times I wish wed remained in our home galaxy, though then again I wouldnt say its been all bad." shed smile to her, though her sudden weakness would catch her attention as her eyes scanned over her for anything unsual. "Yes, it would seem that way wouldnt it-" shed observe as she quickly locked onto the necklace...that sure as hell was Caledonian in style and with how she knew Brennus she couldnt help but wonder as she reached out to pluck it from Ash's neck and deposit it on the console. "You alright?" shed ask concerned as she sank with her and moved to cradle her head unless the woman were to rise again. "Prepare a communications drone." shed order as a recording began of her as she was. "Brennus, Havent you caused enough damage on this day already? I would assume this work on Asheriene is Caledonian in nature." shed would end it and a few moments later the drone would leave the ship, rifting into non existence before making its way to Caledon to transmit her messege before it would no doubt be erased from existence via Caledonian weaponry.
21:52:22 [Ashrienne] [] The winged female needed a moment and remained set within Aurelia's lap " Forgive me.. It has been sometime since I felt emotion on that level.. The last time felt it... My entire race was almost destroyed.. So much pain and anguish that day.. And here... So much; unbridled rage.. " She sighed; turning her gaze slowly upon Aurelia " I will be alright in a few moments.. Please, no need to thank me.. Having a level-head with resolve this issue " She spoke after slowly sitting up and shaking her head. The sensation was gone now; and as such, she didn't feel like her skull was going to split. After a minute; Ashrienne managed to get to her feet; though she would accept Aurelia's help in support, considering the L`Shai`Lae was still a little weakened by the sensation " We have more important things to do... We must find the cause; and quickly.. Otherwise this war that you speak of being inevitable will consume more than the Kallean's and the Caldeonian's... And I refuse to let that happen " Despite her words of being alright, it was obvious that she was not; given her fatigue " The question is... Who would benefit from starting a war? The list is perhaps too large.. Everyone has enemies.... " Thinking currently was proving a difficult and tumultuous task []
21:59:32 [-Aurelia-] "There is nothing to forgive." shed smile as she helped to steady Ashrienne once shed moved to sit up, though shed follow her even as she stood incase she should faulter again. "The list is perhaps too long, considering our recent reputation and our tendency to eliminate piracy as well as many other aspects. One this is certain though, at some point one has to show the first step, and soon." she would state as she took in a deep sigh. "We shall set course for Caledon and although I do not hold much hope out for my own safety perhaps it will prevent my people from being lost for a war with the Caledonians would only result in the elimination of both species from this galaxy." shed look down as she hesitated, all shed need do was give the order and that blinding flash would take them to Caledon, though it seemed for once she was visibly nervous as to what might happen should she do so.
22:10:30 [Ashrienne] [] Despite her fatigue; she couldn't help but empathize with Aurelia; as that was her way once she had calmed herself.. She listened to her speak about the matter pertaining to potential enemies, and would have to agree about the probability of their adversary revealing themselves in due time. Ashrienne turned her attention towards Aurelia, and sensed her hesitated. With a reserved nod, Ashrienne took her hands and spoke gently " I will stand by you Aurelia. Don't worry, everything will be sorted out I promise you. Such hesitation is not like you.. If they see their matriarch doubt herself, then your people too will begin to doubt. You must be strong for them " She mentioned; leaning closer to her cheek and setting a soft kiss upon it " Come.. Let us work through this alright.. I will remain at your side until this awful business has been put to grass " She hoped her words would get through the obviously disheartened Kallean Matriarch []
22:25:54 -Aurelia- couldnt help but smile as Ash spoke to her and the bridge crew fell silent, eaglery seeming to await her next orders, though for the moment she simply cupped her hand to the cheek the kiss had been placed on as she seemed to center herself. "Open a channel, fleet wide, as well as any Caledonian frequency." shed order as she moved to her command chair and took a seat and waited as the bridge crew began thier work, opening the hail a short time later where her image would appear on every vessel that would be willing to hear it. "Citizens of this galaxy, as many of you know a short time ago the Kallean and Caledonian forces engaged eachother in orbital warfare over Caledon. While we are not yet aware as to the reasoning behind this it has become apparent that niether side is responsible...-" Shed pause for a second, "It is our belief a third faction quite possibly is attempting to manipulate the two major powers of this galaxy into all out warfare and while this almost happened today I will be travelling to Caledon myself to ensure this is averted...And to those responsible..." shed pause as she rose to stand and ignited her energy blade. "I do not believe in a fate that will fall on us no matter what we do, I do how ever believe in a fate that will fall on us should we do nothing. Our enemies will be reminded that peace is the highest aspiration of our people...We will sacrifice for it, negotiate for it, but we will NOT surrender for it, now...or ever. This is the Kallean Vessel Revelation of Fire, coordinates 546.2, 273.1. All stations all crew....Battle Stations..." shed order, it looked like her bridge crew was about to bust out cheering as the communication ended...
22:36:22 [Ashrienne] [] With the reinvigorated Aurelia taking control, Ashrienne nodded and stood at her side; showing her own support on the matter. As the communication was sent out; Ashrienne would be seen standing at Aurelia's right side; obviously unbound and certainly choosing to stay of her own free will. As Aurelia spoke; the winged female could not help a small smile form as the words and declaration were given. Once it was done, and the crew would begin to cheer; Ashrienne would turn to her and smiled before kneeling before her " Matriarch Aurelia.. I, Ashrienne I`lia`thain`ae - Queen of the L`Shai`Lae pledge my sword to help you track and ultimately obliterate our common enemy.. Myself, my crew, and my ship the Ebonith will fall under your command if you wish it so? Provided the ship is repaired.. I had hoped the maintenance would have been completed but... Our technology is still quite limited since the near extinction of my species.. " She paused a moment; and thusly, offered a proposition " Perhaps.. In the further spirit of cooperation.. You could assist in constructing a ship of Kallean and L`Shai`Lae design.. Crewed by both species of course.. " It was of course, a risky move.. And yet, if Aurelia agreed; then Ashrienne's species would be in a strong position to render better assistance in the future; should this matter be cleared up []
22:46:07 -Aurelia- turned as she faced Ash fully. "If that is what you desire, then it shall be so. Though I in turn also promise my blade to your defense and to your crews." shed respond as she reached out to place her hand gently on her shoulder and although she would hesitate for a moment as she found her wording she couldnt help but feel it was time to reveal something shed almost forgotten. "Then as Matriarch of the Revelation of Fire and Princess to the Kallean Empire, you have my support and agreement. We shall build you and your crew a vessel unlike any other. Perhaps even a first in a series of what will be the shape of things to come." she was smiling though part of her wondered if Ash would pick up on the little detail shed just let slip, perhaps, perhaps not, though it was probably a detail for another time.
