Griasfrask

He swallowed, sitting down on the bench in the park, eying up the ladies; like every other man did. He leaned back as he produced the military newspaper, of which he was a regular customer of the local newsagents near his home on the outskirts of the city. His cobalt eyes looking down at the paper and he ran hand through his hair, the intense feeling that something was wrong somewhere was starting to worry him but he shook it off.

The usual hum of star ships landing in the space port could still be heard even though he was somewhat ten miles away. It did have an area of outskirts where nothing stood due to the noise, every much like a airport but bigger. The Military ships slowly entered the orbit, creating a bright light in the sky, but Alexander Wulan thought nothing of it. He was in matter of the fact uncaring for the Military, wanting them to disarm but with the mass of local sightings of new nations appearing at the borders of the Cybran Nation, maybe now was not a good time for him to start anything but a debate. But was there really a point? Not really, the people to his knowledge were now happy with the increased military tension, stopping the criminals from shipping in illegal goods into the nearby systems, and creating an overall drop in crime.

He looked up, watching the streets carefully for her. The Senior MP for the Casgrax system, Lillian Eitoph. They needed to talk, in his opinion about the words the Military officers were using within the Hiscotts Military tower, words of mass conscription and new warships with all the new technology but still using the same ships that were outdated, that was a risk... A very big one.

Alexander smiled, getting to his feet and shook her hand, "Miss Eitoph." He galnced her up and down before pulling back and put the newspaper in his bag, his eyes watching the small group of off duty Navy personnel going to the local bar. Military bastards...

He swallowed before sitting back down calmly, "Have you had any news about the Military plans of a civil war?" It was the only real way to put it, and he had the funny feeling that if the Military got its way, like it did most of the time, they could start a mass killing to get rid of populations for most testings grounds, saying they did contaminate all the over grounds with their Nuclear and SoloNuclear weaponry. "Oh. I got a message containing the reports from a close encounter with four other nations in another Galaxy, and I need your opinion if it could erupt into a war. Knowing the Military, they will likely press us into a war, promising new lands and all that bull..."

Alex glanced up at the public transporter moving away from the stop outside the park grounds, robotic drivers were the safest.

Lillian frowned. The last thing she wanted to hear about was encounters in other galaxies, regardless of how far away the danger was. Descending to the seat next to him, she began.

"Business is booming," She said grimly on the nature of the civil war, "Many wish to see guns down but more seek profits and political growth ah... It's all very sensitive, which says just as much."

From her purse she pulled a small folder. It wasn't much larger than a hand held notebook, but it was thick with compressed paper files. Not many people dealt in the physical anymore, Lillian was one of them.

Alexander sighed, pulling a small PDA from his bag, opening a few files and placed it on her lap. His hand going for the hot drink on the ground just below him. "The industries seem to be doing well, a lot more investment into the Shoe industry especially. I am very surprised at what you can do to it within a matter of weeks. There was a vast plague of new investment wanting factories on Casgrax III." He smiled happily, watching the people walk by, all finely dressed. "And the records show no homeless people too, which is a vast improvement compared to the other nearby systems."

He stretched his legs out and sipped the hot drink slowly, watching for her reaction slowly. His mind started to cause pain so he placed the drink down and reached for his bag again, pulling out painkillers.

"Yes," Lillian smiled, tapping her shoes on the ground. The shoe trade was helping rise the economy. She had nothing to complain about there, loving shoes as much as she did. Factories giving out jobs, homeless no longer on the streets.

"They've opened shelters?" She had to raise a brow. It was proposed a while back to open shelters in factories and manufacturing facilities, offering employment for living quarters. Not an awful arrangement for someone with nothing better or for business owners. She reviewed the data on the PDA.

"Should cut back," Lillian noted on the pills and caffeine combination, clicking through to another graph.

He shook his head softly, "No, the rent is low and their is so many jobs now that people are using the transports more and have homes, the shelters are running but from what I've seen myself, there is very few people in them. I have the feeling that we have completed our mission."

He swallowed the pill and placed the tray back into the box, and the box into the bag. He looked at her, biting his bottom lip before shaking his head softly, "I can't I need to see the doctor at some point, but he'll just put me onto the pills again. And I am not going through that again."

His eyes glanced around, "What are you going to say to the Parliament? You know I will back you all the way? Right?"

They had gotten a message a few weeks ago and now here they were after being passed through security a diplomatic party of the Talus Ordo Confederation had arrived In the Casgrax system. They seemed to be whisked to the university to meet with the leadership. The group consisted of Three main diplomats along with some of the higher TOC military officals including the Former Zar Commandants Maxwell Mattran and Will Zarhara.

The most defining thing about the group was their diversity. The humans but also the other race that appeared to mix of Humans and a strange grey alien race. They were a bit smaller than the average humanoid and their eyes were bright blue. There were the Talus. For years they had lived peacefully and integrated with humanoid colonists. Both the humanoids and the Talus were the largest races in the TOC.

High Cleric Til'Da was leading the diplomatic mission. He wore his finest robes to the event. Around the part Mattrans best Guards wore their shining armor all armed with ceremonial pistols imbued with the finest minerals. "We are most humbled by your invitation, I know Grand Admiral Zarhara and Major General Mattran have met with your officials in the past.

The Supreme Commander nodded, softly. "Yes, I think my friends in the Navy have done so. But we will need to move to a military base called Los Vantues, It is unsafe to be around here right now my friends. We are at a state of war with your enemy, and personally, I have the feeling they will come after you next, which is why we need to form an alliance in order to defeat your enemy. The SEC have brought two allies with them to try and take Cybran lands, our allies have joined us in an assault. We hope to be able to bring the attack back onto their homelands."

The diplomatic party was a bit taken aback they had already received reports from Captain Malcolm concerning events on Terra but this invasion was news to the party. Finally the high Cleric spoke.

"The Sullen Enterprise is Enemies to the ZAR, we have attempted contact to no avail. We will meet where you suggest but I expect a full briefing on these events before we make a thoughtful decision...." The High Cleric said. It was clear the that two military commanders were not in control here but the Talus native was taking command of the negotiations.

"The events near the planet known to most as Terra, was first us then the Old Order, which is criminals that will kill everything made." The Commander sighed as the Cybran Diplomat looked at the Talus Native.

"We have made a number of mistakes over the last few years, and we wish to fix that." Sighed the Diplomat, rubbing his face.

"I am aware of the events on Terra, but I am more concerned with the events regarding the SEC. Let us go to this new location. Give Admiral Zarhara the coordinates and we will take our Diplomatic Vessel." The cleric stated normally the Talus male would have wanted to conduct negotiations in one place but he wanted to get back to his ship to learn of these recent events before he came to a decision.

The diplomat swallowed, "Los Vantues, it is a clear area saying you can see the vast dome from space. We will have some Interceptors escort you there."

Meteor has arrived, coming from Germi.

Meteor vanishes into nothingness, but you get the feeling they are heading somewhere else.

Meteor has arrived, coming from Griasfrask Spaceport.

In a cacophony of obliteration, everything to the east vanishes.

In a cacophony of obliteration, everything to the south vanishes.

Meteor has left the area, heading east into Germi.
