[b] Krugor 4 (part of the Krugor Project: 7 new government-colonized planets for economic and population growth)____(formerly known as C-434/PS-434)[/b] Asteroids around these systems in space were much more common that usual. They once belonged to planets, they were once homes for individuals. Now, however, they stand as remnants of something else, something..darker. Planets are harder to come by for the remnants of Zonan, or any planet near Zonan for that matter. What remains of the Zonanese territory is a litter of rock, gas giants, a rarity of Zonanese States, and a scarce amount of new planets. What lays inside of each remnant planet is always a mystery, but always fun to uncover. Sometimes, they would find a library, full of data that they could use to uncover the mysterious language that Zonan held. Other times, they might just find natives who the military keeps their distance from. For when the natives get their hands on the military's weapons, they turn into more than just a bunch of savages. They turn into a threat, a threat that can be overpopulated, overpowering, and now extremely dangerous with just a handful of explosives or munitions. Krugor 4 was no different. It was a humid and hot planet, swarming with intelligent life that was the guardians. These creatures, however, were far more dangerous than the last few guardians. These creatures had harnessed their weapons before the Castu arrived, and were more than prepared to fight back with what they had. The only thing that held them from reentering the stars was the other guardians fighting in the area, who had hold of thousands of explosives from the past. Krugor 4 was the most dangerous colony in the Oligarchy for that reason, and colonials were not permitted to enter the planet until the danger was put to a minimal. However, this did not stop scientists to be escorted there and uncover the planet's secrets. Research Team 12 was tasked of exploring a valley inside the western equator of the planet. It was hot, and it rained almost every day.The jungles swarmed with wild life, but also something else. While they could not find anything enormous, they did find something else. It was a building carved into a hill. From there it went deep underground to the abyss of Krugor 4. The entrance was guarded with numerous, yet dilapidated and useless, defenses, and inside the hill laid what seemed to be a command room. As the team and soldiers began to fiddle with the room, they did something so stupid that it worse than the incident on Research Center 4. One of the scientists pressed something wrong on one of the computers, which also, for some reason, still had power like every other planet they've found. The room's lighting flashed on, and scout teams searching underground were faced with the blinding light as well. What they saw was horrifying: dead carcasses and dozens of natives watching them. The radioed the team in the command room about their distress,but it was too late for them. Meanwhile, a robotic-female voice inside the command room began to speak. [i]Tá an comhartha anacair curtha chuig. Na cosaintí atá á armtha. Ag ullmhú do aslonnú sibhialtaigh agus oifigigh. Stáisiúin Míleata agus cathracha á chur ar aghaidh sonraí. Tá Teachtaireacht á sheoladh chuig na náisiúin uile aitheanta agus allies. Ní mór dúinn maireachtáil ar an Gheimhridh.[/i] A blue light smashed out of the hill and into the sky, where the Markham, a Gortru and their four Kalima escorts immediately took notice. They could not intercept the message, which shortly after would spread across the galaxy. The message would have said. [i]Planetary State 434 is under siege from the invaders. Requesting reinforcements/medical aid from all known nations and allies. Long live Zonan, and may we all survive the Winter.[/i] Any nation could have seen this message, and be able to trace down where it came from. The Oligarchy found the message, and quickly got to work on translating it and on sending military reinforcements to the planet in case of a hostile threat from another species. Five Gortrus, three Markhams, 20 Kalimas, and 7 Eliptics were sent for aid.
