Unknown Planet
Having picked up a transmission, the Delphan Mental Collective had ordered a diplomat to be sent to the origin of the transmission immediately. In a purple flash a blue-skinned alien mammal with antennae appeared in the room, her eyes glowing purple for a few moments after her appearance. She held a primitive gunpowder assault rifle, and wore a gold and white uniform. There were two people in the room, apparently surprised about something. The alien being spoke to them, holding her assault rifle in a position that would allow her to raise it in a moment's notice.

"I am Kuuyi Oras of the Delphan Mental Collective, member of the Lakfakalle Cooperative Federation. A pleasure to meet you, though I very much want to be somewhere else right now, so let's make this quick. We need allies to fight off an invasion of this universe, we already have found a way to calculate the enemy's movements, now all we need are a force to counter them. You assistance would be greatly rewarded." She said, and her eyes glowed purple once more.

A video clip appeared in front of the alien who seemed to be in power, like a hologram, but somehow projected using psychic power. It showed the battle of Lakfanikolien and images of multiple Lakfakallian warships, as well as the LIC Kelsof.

"We may be a primitive nation aside from leftover Aif tech, but my people have artificially augmented our natural psychic abilities to be able to harvest the psychic power of other beings and use it ourselves. We plan to use this power to manipulate the minds of those in the invading empire, forcing them to rebel. However, their military will still be a problem in this universe. With our psychics out of commission inciting rebellion, we will need the best warriors we can find, armed with the best weapons we know of. We hope you can provide some of those warriors."

Triarians (Imperial)
"Why yes, we genetically augmented ourselves to become psychics a century ago. We come from a system called Sol, in a universe we call Prime. I have no idea how large our population is, that's kept in the central computer on Terra. The Imperial Star Navy division assigned to this universe consists of a mere million warships, with only a single developed galaxy, we don't need anything more. I do not known the numbers of the entire Imperial Star Navy, again, that information is kept on Terra. We have dominated multiple thousand biologically distinct races, they are not allowed to field any armed forces and thus no info is kept on their force limits. Industrial output data is kept on Terra. We are a Type VI on the Kardashev Scale. We are infinitely superior to your people, and have conquered far more powerful versions of the Triarian Collective than you. You will be swatted like a fly. Nobody is capable of resisting us."

Sol System
The moment that the Democratic State of Mons heard that the aliens were going to send diplomats to the other two nations, they immediately sent a message refusing to allow any diplomats to land in their nation. Apparently, they were simply that arrogant. The Ismenius Camian State also refused to allow the diplomat to dock, but said that they were "Having technical difficulties" and did not want the diplomat to dock for their own safety. Although it was obvious they just didn't want them to dock because they offered to meet with the Democratic State of Mons, they still went to the trouble of coming up with an excuse for some strange reason.

The Humankind Empire Abh, however, welcomed the diplomat with open arms. They were met with a group of Abh diplomats just after they exited their spacecraft, floating in the zero-g of the docking section.
"Welcome to Ikhayasha Station." Said one of them, who was wearing a military uniform of multiple different shades of purple. Interestingly, his hair was brown instead of the common blue. "I hope you are a more inclusive species than the humans are. We have prepared a meeting room, luckily, we don't use chairs like the humans do. You'll be able to sit down just fine. Actually, you might be laying down. Or maybe you don't have words for those actions because of your biology."

"Jinto, leave this to me. I was trained for this." Said an Abh woman, dressed in a light blue uniform that was obviously meant for formal occasions. "Viscountess Abriel Paryunu, at your service. You may also refer to me as Captain Abriel. I apologize for Officer Linn's speculations. He was not trained diplomatically. As he said, we have prepared a meeting room. If you follow us, we can have a formal meeting there. I believe you will be happy to get to a place where there is gravity."

"Say, how do you even build starships? You don't have any han-"

"Jinto! First Contact grammar, please!" She quickly turned to the Equestrians "I apologize if Officer Linn's question sounded like he was ordering you to answer him, he used a figure of speech that is not supposed to be used during first contact in case it offends the diplomatic party."

Message to Sazkarjhit Authorities

Good Evening,

We currently have a nanobot swarm standing by for orders, we will order them to search for Switch immediately. However, they are not programmed or equipped for combat, so we will have to send a fleet to take him down. With any luck, they will find him quickly and without trouble. The moment he is found, the information will be transmitted to you.

May Star Fire light your path,
Empress Aicryac Üémh Tlyzr Naurh, Abh Empire

Imperial Admiral

The Officer chuckled again "Your technological attainment level is irrelevant, as is your strength... we took your flagship easy enough. Oh don't worry, we don't intend to be any trouble at all... in fact, you could say we intend to be rather... ghost like." He gave a small grin "Now, a minor personal question. Tell me, do you originate from your prime universe?"
The overseer turned his head to another Saeva Simius "cutis" He said simply, and the Saeva Simius nodded, taking an odd looking device from the back of the dropship and approaching her, moving it along the surface of her flesh. The small beam moved across her skin, information appearing in alien glyphs along the devices view screen
"deprehendi" He reported
"cognovit" The overseer said. The overseer eyes then began to glow as he transmitted information away, the Saeva Simius began to speak to the third command unit, but the first Officer held up his hand "Let her answer my inquiry"

Sol System
"It is no matter, but I still like to answer that question. There are two ways we make up for our lacks of hands, the first is a special devices that goes over the hoof, the second, is magic." as the unicorn diplomat finished that sentence his horned glowed and objects began floating around the room, including Officer Linn. She was put down shortly after.
"English is quite common by the way, you might consider it the galactic language."
The Unicorn continued following the Abh.

Isolation Project
The entire Ceramus will conduct an interplanetary-wide project in regards to further impending threats. During this, all Qouruxes will cease all space travel, disable all magic, refuse to use communication devices, and altogether shut down all links to known extraterrestrial parties. This will reverse the entire civilization back to the Stone Age-level of technology but with the Space-Age level of intelligence.

The Isolation will last indefinitely, and no further updates will occur.

Sol: Actions against Imperials

300 Collective warships, with nearly 200 Cargo ships in tow, have appeared in the sol system. They broadcast a message to all in system, transmitted in nearly 300 known languages, including Triarian Standard and English.

"Your system is the confirmed landing zone of hostile extra-universal empire designated The Empire/Imperials. Your system is hereby conscripted by the Collective under GEA 3, full title Galactic Emergency Article 3. Inquiry: Are all nations capable of Interstellar travel? System must be evacuated by all non-military personnel immediately"

The Collective quickly gets to work and begins to set up the defenses it has brought in the cargo ships

Sol System
Captain Abriel looked on in awe as the Equestrians used their magic, amazed at how similar the power was to that described in the ancient legends.

"Our myths describe beings with such power, and it was said they could even use it to bring an inanimate body to life. That power had the same name, Magic. However, they were bipedal like us, and are said to have looked just like humans. Of course, it couldn't have been them, humans are too closed-minded to have done the great things the Magic users once did."

Interestingly, the brown haired man she called Jinto took no offense to this, despite obviously being a genetic human.

"So, our language is universal?" Said Jinto "The chances of that being true are quite literally nonexistent. I mean, it's unlikely for an alien species to even be capable of speaking our language, much less already being fluent. Perhaps those religious-"

He was interrupted by the shrieking of an alarm, and the lights of the station went red. Captain Abriel ran over to a wall and hit the intercom.

"Why in the name of the goddess did you activate the alarm!?" She said. After a while, she responded to an answer nobody else heard. "Well then shut it off! They're not shooting at us, now are they? ... Yes, their claims are probably true. We just made contact with a species that using literal, actual magic in the place of hands. An interdimensional war is more probable... Repeat please." Her face took on a look of shock, and her skin went pale. "Take that joke as a serious statement then. Power up the streamer network, let's be ready."

She left the intercom, and turned to the Equestrian diplomats.

"There's a ridiculously large fleet knocking on our door, telling us to leave our homes behind because our system is going to fall under attack from extra-universal forces. And you have no hands and use actual magic. In the event that I am wrong, forget everything I am about to do."

While most people expected her to divulge secret information, Jinto promptly covered his ears.

"JINTOOOOOOOO!" Screamed the Captain at a deafening intensity. Jinto took his hands off his ears, and the Captain waited for a few moment.

"Ah. Well then..." She said, turning bright red "Either one of us is sleeping very, very well, or this is actually happening. Because neither me nor Officer Linn is the legendary hero of the Ancient Crusades, this is probably real. In case you know of the alien species that just entered the system, tell us everything you know. In the meantime, I'll try to stall them."

She once again moved to the intercom, this time hooking it up with the station's comm system.

"This is Viscountess Abriel Paryunu of the Humankind Empire Abh, my full name is Ablïarsec Néïc Dubleuscr Bœrh Parhynr Lamhirh, and I would prefer it if you referred to me as such. We are technologically capable of interstellar travel, but we are currently in the process of constructing out first starship which will be incapable of surpassing the speed of light. The evacuation of non-military personnel is impossible for the human factions as all infrastructure on the planet would collapse and it would be completely useless for whatever defensive plan you propose. The Humankind Empire Abh is capable of ordering temporary military service based on one's social rank, standard citizens can be called to duty for two months, and the Emperor or Empress is always considered on active military duty. Erm... would you be willing to discuss the subject face-to-face? Or face-to-wherever your eyes are, or face-to-wherever your non-eye sensory organs are? Or maybe face-to-faceplate?"

Imperial Capture
"I am from the Deimos Colony in the Prime universe. I had the privilege of seeing the great Terra up close." Said the Admiral, now having accepted her fate. She knew that there was no way out, even for her.

Abh
"The Collective..Well what they say is true, but do to the current situation, I have a much faster way to share with you the information I was going to. Lets also say your not the only of your kind in this galaxy."
The horn of the unicorn glowed again as they were brought somewhere. They observed vast amounts of information, information regarding the Lakfalle, and the humans and Abh within them. Information regarding Equestria, her goals, her progress, and her people. Information regarding the Collective, however this information seems to focus more on the brutal toleratian regime of the Collective. And finally showed information regarding the AIF, there extent, and there allies.

"I planned to talk to about all of this, but with the Collective here we needed a quick way to share the info with you." spoke the unicorn, as the three appeared back in the station.

Sol

"This is not open for debate, all must evacuate this system immediately. Priority alert: The defensive plan is liable to cause huge collateral damage to the worlds. I calculate huge loss of life if you do not move to evacuate all non-essential personnel. Resident notice: Equestrian ships detected in system, advise you ask them for assistance in removing the non-military personnel. In the case of the humans, full evacuation is required. Your lack of ships degrades the usefulness of the nations for defences. Bring your planetary defences onli... You have a planetary defence grid, correct?" The AI was calculating the chances of success... If the plan for defence failed, the galaxy would have a 0.1% chance of surviving past the first month... And then a 0.0000001% chance of surviving past the second. They had to hold the line here...

Imperial admiral

"That is most fortunate for us. Do you have knowledge of the devices used for inter-universal travel?" The officer said, as the Saeva Simius turned back to him and grunted something, the officer nodded in response
"Move us to Nova Prospekt" The overseer behind him ordered, and the Saeva Simius slammed his fist into his chest, before using the device on his wrist again

SAZKARJHIA CENTER FOR NAVAL OPERATIONS AND SPACE EXPLORATION FLEET DISPATCH

ORDERS: HUB FLEET 1 and HUB FLEET 2 are to split into 30 FLEETS and begin reconnaissance operations in the following EMPIRICAL SECTORS:

TRIARIAN-CONTROLLED SPACE

EQUESTRIAN-CONTROLLED SPACE

ABH-CONTROLLED SPACE

These three appear to have the most reports of SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY REGARDING NARCOTICS AND PIRACY UNDER SAZKARJHIA INTERGALACTIC SECURITY ADMINISTRATION [SEC 7 PASS 4]. While it cannot be confirmed to be the SYLVE SARDON'HUM NARCOTICS CORPORATION, known to most as the "Sylve Faction", most of these reports have spoke of the mentioned group. No ship is ordered to destroy any Sylve vessel. Not only will this make protecting civilian manifest easier, but it will also make it easier to acquire SYLVE HIGH-RANKING PERSONNEL.

By acquiring CAPTAIN TRAGALO'HUM, known colloquially as "Switch", it will help us in bringing down Sylve in this supersector of the universe. It is absolutely integral that this mission is not halted or slowed down, regardless of what other governments state. If any spacefaring fleet is stopped by an empire's military, procure attached documentation proving that said fleet is on a peacekeeping mission. If the empire's military denies these claims or attacks, and only if one of those two, then DEADLY FORCE is authorized.

May the Gods be with you on your path, and may the just hand of Zarwaun guide you forth.

Delphan Broadcast
"The Lakfakalle Cooperative Federation has been declared under the control of the Delphan Mental Collective. The leaders of all nation shave agreed to allow this due to our higher knowledge. We have chosen to reconnect Fairlan Milklan to the Collective. None other may be reconnected. All requests will be denied. This is a decision made over many hours of deliberation over probability. The Sol system must be held. The Sol system will be held. In the darkest hour of the galaxy, six from beyond will defend it. Apparently, those who wrote that line were correct. Some very strange things will be seen in the near future, and some very terrifying things as well. Remember, no matter how bad the situation, no matter how outnumbered or overpowered you are, hold on to hope. Even if you are all alone and surrounded by ten-foot biological constructs created for war, hold on to hope. When your streets are being stormed and your families slaughtered, hold on to hope. When you stand up to fight the enemy, know that their goals will never be accomplish, there is no path that the timeline can take where they succeed."

Imperial Admiral
"Of course not! I'm not an engineer! You should have captured the Drive Ship if you wanted to know that!"

The Admiral's face betrayed her words, it was clear that she knew everything about the device. Though she tried to contain her fear, it spilled out all over her, a river of obvious emotions on display. After all, how could one who had never known fear hide it?

Sol System
The knowledge imparted by the Equestrians deeply stirred the Captain and Officer Linn, knowing the true history of the Sol system, they both immediately ran up to the intercom and spoke together.

"This is our home, let the landers run, no Abh will leave this system. We will all fight." They said in tandem, and shortly afterward, the Captain continued.

"This world does have a defense system, and an incredibly powerful one at that. I don't care what you say, but we're going to use it against these invaders you speak of. And we're going to win."

Sol System
"Carriers Shining, Warhound, and Surprise begin deploying defenses"
3 of the Equestrians carriers split off from the main fleet, and were seen deploying various cannons across asteroids and moons.
"Admiral Ironblood would like to board the main Triarian vessel. Coordination is needed if the universe if to be saved from Imperials."

Fleet Status
A New Dreadnought, Broken Unity, has been constructed to replace the one lost at Kashyyyk. While a new fleet was being constructed after the loss of Military World 01 it has been halted, for some presumably unknown reason. Equestrian R&D has stated the reason for it is they are working on several new ships and weapons, and would like them to be apart of the new fleet.

Research and Development Projects
Project Night's Doom: Log 001
"After a few years and months of development we have finally come up with Equestria's first Dark Energy weapon. Named the Gale Missile, it contains a small amount of dark energy at its tip, and upon impact, triggers a explosive device destroying the containment, releasing the dark energy and causing damage. While this missile is far from anything the Triarians have, it show's that were at least making some progress. The missile also needs its own special launcher, so it can't be used on current ships as of now. The next goal of Night's Doom is to build a actually dark energy cannon, or develop a second version of the Gale Missile capable of being used alongside normal missile launchers. I have heard that the other parts of R&D have already developed a prototype ship using the Gale Missile's special launchers. I can't wait to see those ships in action.

Project Solid-light : Log 001
"So, now the military wants me working on hardlight weapons. Which is just great, because they expect me to develop that soon. It tooks the Triarians centuries to pioneer hardlight, then millennia just to develop hardlight weapons. We are centuries behind in technological development, I don't see how they expect me to just develop that within the next few years, or hundreds. Anyways I better see what I can do, instead of just complaining in the research logs."

New Prototype ship


((And ship that is classified as a Warship is the equivalent of a Frigate))

Warmaster Finch Transmission to Triarian collective
I grow tired of awaiting a response, will you hand over the Imperial admiral when your interrogation is over or will it come to force? If you continue to ignore me it will come to force very quickly.

Chaos message

You shall have her when we are finished, we have already stated this.

Ship signatures detected in Sector Grey 2

Two Civilis Protectione ships dispatched to investigate...

Ships identified as Sazkarjhit vessels

Moving in to question...

Imperial Admiral

The Triarian Officer knelt down as the Saeva Simius forced her to her knee's "We can do this in one of two ways. You can tell me everything I want willingly and you will be treated with charity and kindness, or I can tear apart your mind to find the information I need, and then toss you to the warp of chaos. Now, I don't think you want the latter, do you?" He said simply, the Saeva Simius behind him gave a small grunt

Equestrian Request

"Granted... Come along, no weaponry, security reasons."

Ytreath Orbital Shipyard
"You say i should command this ship. But i won't, and i won't!", protested the Temer while facing the honored Ytreath's Jarl Cyrrac of Ceteral.

"Look, why turn down a huge honor that is presented in marvelous display, right outside the window to your left? Five times we have tried to find a willing captain for this vessel, and five times it has been turned down. There's no indoctrination, and the once labyrinth-like rooms are corrected to the standard geometries. I don't understand." Cyrrac paused and made a grunting noise. "Strangely, many captains are wishing they have took the opportunity for this one. Is this some sort of reverse indoctrination?"

"Like i said, no means no! I don't want to be seen as an ancient enemy!" The reluctant Temer left the room.

"Next command graduate!"

A Ceteral, who looked more enthusiastic than the others previously in line, entered the room. Of course, just as his expressions were, so did his response to the offer, with the words of "Is it mine now?"

"Yes, if you could just accept this offer and not be like the others who just declined left for strange reasons... anyway it's probably because they expect great responsibility for commanding this Marros, but fortunately i remembered to remind you now: it's the same as heading a Corvette. Except, expect a general to be housed inside because this is a capital ship class. But then again, taking his orders from inside is the same as taking orders from outside. Don't be nervous, Stagor doesn't bite. Just be careful not to... utter things about his wife."

"So, now i accept. What now?"

"Good. Glad this is straightened out. Take the Oath, and you're ready to fly out. Of course, in the coming days you'll be assigned a mission to pick up General Stagor, so enjoy the time while it lasts. Now, back to the oath."

"I..."

"I..."

"State your name.."

"Voldran Eritius VII of Ceteral..."

"with unswerving loyalty to Emperor Synod Artel of Temer..."

"with unswerving loyalty to Emperor Synod Artel of Temer.."

"abides to the laws and principles of the Ktaroch Empire..."

"abides to the laws and principles of the Ktaroch Empire..."

"and hereby obeys the orders of the higher personnel for the greater good."

"and hereby obeys the orders of the higher personnel for the greater good."

"May the Ktaroch remain fruitful, prosperous in all of its days, and may it live long!"

"May the Ktaroch remain fruitful, prosperous in all of its days, and may it live long!"

"Congratulations, you are now the first captain of the Marros Class. Remember that yours is still experimental, so come back to me when you need your ship to be fitted in order to match with the later improvements. That'll be free, unlike further customizations. You may now take your leave and look around you very own vessel." The Jarl stood, and so did Voltran. The man left, while the Jarl waited in the room to expect a certain visitor.

"How fares the recruiting?", said the Temer Stagor as he walked in.

"A bit difficult, to say. But General, at least we've found someone who might be confident in his duty. But i've left out another important detail there..."

"What is it?"

"I didn't say he'll be going to be in an expedition mission after he picks you up soon. Do a favor for me and tell him this when Voltran pick you up, shall you?"

"For a Jarl to order around a General... but it's a favor, so i'll let this off."

Sylve Dispatch: Sazkarjhit Patrol of Triarian Space

"Ma'am, Triarian ships off starboard amidships, moving on an intercept vector." The astrogation officer reported to Fleetmaster Heldar'mum. The fleet leader looked through the viewscreen on her left to see two Triarian ships, members of their police unit the "Civilis Protectione," inbound, weapons raised. Panic passed over her in a wave, but then calmed herself down, realizing that this would be an appropriate response to Sazkarjhit naval operations in foreign space; especially after many years of absence from affairs with the Collective.

"Order the deployment of the Armistice and the Vigilance to intercept the ships, make sure they have transmitters for the mission documents and are carrying their nuclear payloads--just in case." she ordered to her communications officer. The comm officer relayed this to the Semrin-Class Supercarrier PNS Darkalonon, where two Rakora-Class assault vessels that laid on the top lit up brilliantly with flame as their takeoff/landing thrusters fired up and pushed them from the larger ship. They both turned on a right angle and sped towards the Civilis Protectione ships--which were now within firing distance of the fleet--and raised arms and prepared to intercept."

The two ships transmitted a message with documents to send to the vessels.

"Attention, Triarian interceptors! This is Vice Marshal Yarnil'kum of the PNS Armistice, representing Sazkarjhia Assault Fleet 071. We mean you no harm and are on a peacekeeping mission to hunt down the Sylve Faction. We are patrolling your space due to the high amount of Sylve attacks in this region; something we are certain you know of. We are sending documentation proving this as sent from SCNOSE High Command, which has our fleet dispatch and declaration of mission. We cannot go unimpeded, and if you resist to our mission or fire upon us, we have been authorized to use deadly force."

Sol System
"We need a guard to assure the safety of the Admiral"

Equestrian Outer Space, near Taris-Volcanis Shipping lane
3 of the new Nightingale class ships arrived in the area. There weapons began powered up as they approached the Sazkarjhit vessels.
"Unauthorized vessels. You are to stand down immediately and deactivate your weapons and identify yourselves. You have entered Equestrian Space illegally."

Equestrian Outer Space

Unlike the fleets in Triarian space, Hub Fleet 002 handled things much more aggressively due to being situated in an intrasystem warzone. The fleet created a large "W"-shaped formation and two Pulsar-Class Electronic Destroyers--the PNS Darkwatch and the PNS Sarcinun--were already inbound to the ships. They saw their weapons were primed to fire, which registered as a threat.

The boat-like Pulsar-Class' hulls peeled away to reveal a complicated mechanism consisting of various rings and cylinders rotating and pulsing blue energy, sitting behind a large plate of glasslike material. On each side of the bow, above this clear section were three cylindrical weapons swiveling around, obtaining a fix on each craft. The machine pulsed violently, sending out a wave of electromagnetic energy. The twelve total cylinders fired dazzling blue beams, hitting the ships and causing shields to glisten and wear away. The pulse finally hit, and various lights that shone on the Nightingale ships went dead.

Finally, the lead of the fleet, the Marku-Class cruiser PNS Graced in the Dawn sent a message to the ships.

"We are on a peacekeeping mission to locate and destroy Sylve manifest with the goal of acquiring information regarding the location of their leader. The proper documentation will be sent to you providing the SCNOSE HICOM dispatch as well as the statement and oath of our mission. We are not afraid to use force to achieve our mission. We had assumed your raised and primed weapons as a threat, and for a short time, we have disabled your ships accordingly. Keep in mind that relations between Sazkarjhia and the New Age Equestrian Empire do not rest well based on previous relationships. As a result, any kind of firing upon that results in materiel destruction will be considered a declaration of war."

Equestrian Outer Space
The Captain look at the systems of the ship. Nothing had been disabled. Apparently the Sazkarjhit had not accounted for the Equestrian shields, nor the other measures installed on the Nightingales. Very limited contact had been made with Sazkarjhia, with what little be known have been through LCF and Triarian info. They apparently harbored negative feelings due to the past Equestrian Empire.

"The Sylve threat is well taken care of. All attacks have so far failed to result into any damage to Equestrian ships. SCNOSE carries no authority in Equestrian Space, nor Sazkarjhia. You are to leave immediately."

Sazkarjhit intrusion: Diagnose, Zero, Administer... UPDATING CODES: Prosecute, Zero, Confirm

There was a full 5 seconds pause, before a response was given
"Attention, please. You failed to provide documents from this sectors Civilis Protectione Sectorial Commander or appropriate higher authority. Result: Sazkarjhit ships are in Collective space illegally. Enter plea." The two ships began to circle, one on the opposite end to the other, around the Sazkarhit fleet, clearly not encouraged by their foes numerical advantage...

Equestrian request

"Granted, one guard"
