"Darnit," each say, "simulation technology." They start pounding on the 'walls' demanding to be released.

@Nucleep

"Silence!"

A robotic voice echoes through the prison corridor. A multicannon can be heard spooling up.

=============================

The TSA (Trogo Space Agency) successfully launched a new satellite into orbit, named the Prosperity 1.


The Treasure Ship owners' drones can clearly see the rocket take off into low-earth orbit, and the first stage booster parachute into the East sea, near Veilletes territorial waters and an awaiting rescue ship with a defense detail.


The satellite emits a blinding blue light as a byproduct of it's completely scientific testing equipment and instruments. This directed light is clearly visible in the night sky to the naked eye blinking on and off, wherever in the world the Prosperity 1 is orbiting at a particular time.

"Indubitably." agreeing Veilletes Ambassador for attending to the board room.

The Veilletes Ambassador follows the Lady to the transport and firmly sitting in place until reached to the destination.

@CmdrAlfieq

The transport drives slowly on the pier to the department buildings, probably as a safety precaution and lowkey to let the Veilletes ambassador to take in the sights of this dull and foggy day.

In the distance, those workers who were operating the jet lift seem to be handcuffed by uniformed soldiers, but this is partly obscured by the dented jetfighter in front of them.

As the transport arrives at the offices, all the soldiers on their way abouts stop and salute the lady as they disembark the transport. She salutes back and the proud soldiers continue on their way. The flag can be seen waving at the top of the building.

My Hider

They are brought into a conference room. It's in a modern minimalist design, but the lady seems to have spruced it up. Paintings of the Trogo national flower Gloriosa superba, Tro City castle and Castle Weisswolf adorn the walls on either side. A traditional chandelier hangs from the ceiling with old-fashioned bulbs. A traditional book is left at the head of the long meeting desk. This is quite strange in Trogo society where e-readers emulate the authentic book experience well. Its title is:

Will your Lips Taste the Kiss of Death?

The Veilletes ambassador and co are encouraged to sit down at the table, as the Lady Anriette does so too, along with what is probably her aide, a young man in a suit to her right and an army officer to her left.

The radio message immediately receives a reply. "We are merchants of Shupoli Industries, here to trade with you! We do not mean to invade your territories. As a token of goodwill, our weapons are not activated."

@Nucleep

The Khaganate radio operator responds: "You will be directed to the nearest airbase. Please stay close to your assigned fighter squadron, and don't try anything. What do you have on board anyway?"
Apparently from somewhere inside the base, an order is given to the fighter squadron, and they start flying at the same altitude and velocity as the treasure ship. The sky was clear, and it was sunny, so the people inside the treasure could follow the planes clearly.
After some time of flying, the blue water of the ocean changed to an intricate network of fortresses and coastal artillery inside the dunes between land and sea, and then many factories, towns and a hexagonal network of roads could be seen by those that looked down.
Eventually, the planes with the treasure airship arrived at an airbase. A large pad, big enough for the treasure ship, was located near the edge. Robots scurried away from it, as if it had been built a very short time before arrival.
"You can land on that pad." Is sent to the people in the treasure ship

Upon at the meeting room, the AA adversaries goes attentive of their military posture and the Officer #32 stood open after greeted by Stephen Michel, the diplomat of the Lanist Khaganate.

"Codename, Officer 3-2 of the Alfieq's Army. The militarists won't allowed to call over our actual names unless our commander has given a strict permission in many occasions!" proclaimed Officer #32.

"Step aside Officer #32!" interrupted by the Kronfurter.

Then the Officer #32 strife to the left side and greeted by 'the non-commissioned of high command', the Kronfurter. It was a same person who commanded the Third Expeditionary Fleet/Army and whom conducted a reconnaissance mission at Lanist Khaganate with a marginal conflict.

"Good evening. It is I, the Kronfurter of the Third Expeditionary Force, has given orders by the Commander to oversee the progress of diplomatic resolution. We're here for negotiating the non-aggression pact on behalf of the Militarist Army, to the Lanist Khaganate." said the Kronfurter.

@CmdrAlfieq

"Non-agression pact huh?" Stephen thought about it. "What would be the terms of it, and any other treaties you may have?"

[Uncle Spanky]

"Well then, what kind of technology did you offer to us right now? We don't have a telepathic senses to know what technology that you are going to trade with, hence a physical look of your wares are needed for legitimacy." said by an outpost officer.

@CmdrAlfieq

The other alien that has not spoken a word since it first touched the ground then pulls a small white disc out from the front-most tentacles, which blocked the disc from view. The alien presses the top of the disc and within a blink of an eye a array of green pixels begins to spew out from the disc. Within seconds a hologram screen is formed, various buttons labeled with what appears to be an alien language dot the interface. Upon closer inspection the letters that make up the words appear to actually be hundreds of tiny letters formed to make up the strange symbols. The alien presses one of the small buttons and then presses the top of the disc again, making the pixels fade away almost like smoke.

The Martian does not speak still, and the one that has been speaking for the duration of their visit starts to talk more after the hologram is closed.

"We will be bringing you or whomever you request be aboard our spacecraft to our Research Tower to show you various examples of our technology, demonstrate them and allow you to inspect them under our supervision. Once you have decided if you want our technology we will accept any reasonable payment."

The man facing those merchants orders the guards to remove their clothes and that they will be enslaved. The guards remove these merchant's clothes and all of their possessions and apply a few restraints to them. These merchants are taken outside, where they can clearly see some other slaves being moved about the streets of whatever town they are in. A horse and buggy sort of vehicle comes up to them and these merchants are loaded into it while the guards take position towards the back of it.

The vehicle is long, almost as long as a school bus and there are 2 benches on either side where other slaves are sitting. The Vehicle is fully open to the air to humiliate the slaves who are riding. 6 guards stood up at attention, ready to beat any slave who talked back. The merchants are forced to sit down on the benches while they are restrained to the vehicle itself. With a crack of a whip the buggy rides off through the town and picks up a few other slaves where an hour or 2 later it ends up with them all being unloaded to a plantation where they are forced to work the long hours in the hot sun under whip and guard's watch. They are also completely naked. Humiliation of slaves is a thing here. They also heard a few gunshots and screams as a few slaves were executed. A warden came by and whipped them all and yelled at them angrily to work on picking the grapes from bushes and apples from trees and such faster than they are doing. The merchants are slaves now, pretty much...

Meanwhile the other Yahupi continue attempting to move these airships while a few others try to get this thing flying, carefully. The drones pick up that the Yahupi are involved in a war against the Federation and they are a brutal slave holding barbaric society with a sun god based religion with strict laws and order. These people don't seem to be too advanced either, maybe 1780's tech at best.

_

In the Federation of the delegate nods and looks to 3 others who run off and come back with 2 chests from a nearby bank. They open these chests up and inside are several precious gems mixed in with a few gold coins and other such valuable items.

@Aceofreality

In Yahupi territory, the merchants start to plan to incite a mass slave rebellion, having seen the conditions here.

The merchants in Federation territory eagerly examine the gems closely with an eyepiece, keen to make sure that these are useful, before accepting them. They deal out the machinery in return. "It was nice doing business with you," the lead merchant said, before the batch of them start returning to the ship.

As the multicannon starts spooling up the banging stops. One of the merchants asks worriedly, "w-what are you going to d-do with us?"

<Snipped quote by Nucleep>
The Khaganate radio operator responds: "You will be directed to the nearest airbase. Please stay close to your assigned fighter squadron, and don't try anything. What do you have on board anyway?"

@jorcool

The treasure ship follows the airplanes closely, before carefully making sure to land on the pad below them. Once again, a ramp opens on the lower end of the treasure ship as the crew walks out to meet their new trading partners.

All drones in Yahupi and Trogo territory continue to observe their respective areas, hoping to find their strengths and weaknesses as well as other quirks.

[Uncle Spanky]

"Meanwhile after having some fun with people in local tribes and such, the entity known as Ashnah starts to head off in the direction of the Martian Colony though along the way she manipulates some weather carelessly to make it snow and lightning occasionally on her way there. Unaffected by the temperature changes."

@Aceofreality

Ashnah enters the forcefield, a thick red fog covers the area, being about a foot higher than her height. It is covering the equally red ground, but she can see tiny specks of blue sprouting up from the ground. Could the specks be plants?

In the distance, a large white object stretches to the top of the dark green sky, surrounded by other white objects.

[CmdrAlfieq]

"Non-agression pact huh?" Stephen thought about it. "What would be the terms of it, and any other treaties you may have?"

@jorcool

The Kronfurter then thinks for a moment.

"Nope, only the non-aggression pact is sufficient." said the Kronfurter.

"The terms for the non-aggression pact of the A.A was stated as follows:
1. The establishment of AA Embassy at your nation. This will ensure a quickest way of negotiation between us and your kind without the requirement of maintaining and deploying long range communications.
2. Demilitarization of a southern Island Lake. Upon accepting this treaty, Militarists and Lanist Khaganate will not allowed to deploy any military presence at the water of southern island lake, and only restricted to maritime police force (patrol crafts) in which marked as the map stated.



That is all for the non-aggression pact." stated by the Kronfurter and before handed him with a treaty to sign at the end.

@Uncle Spanky

The Outpost Officer thought for a second and has accepted martian's predicament of looking through his stuffs under their supervision.

"Very well. Few selected of my soldiers and I will take a glimpse on what technology that you're currently have right now, and if I reasonably wanted to have your certain technologies, then I would try for a bargain if possible." said Outpost Officer of AA before waited and entering a spacecraft.

"Alright, that makes sense." the commander replied. Another man shown Darston a paper detailing some things about the Federation. It seems they were a group of civilized small nations and some tribes who united under a system of a democratic republic of sorts to fend off an invasion of the Yahupi barbarians to the south. They are of a similar ethnic group and peoples, though it isn't the exact same.

Meanwhile the raid on the next island was met with 4 cannon boats and 3 other heavy Yahupi battleships which began firing cannonballs and musket fire at them. Though this time there is something different in their arsenal, the cannonballs explode on impact with sharpnel flying all over the place aswell as causing fires. These ships were made out strong, sturdy wood and powered by steam, though they still had sails.

@Aceofreality

"Intriguing. The history of Veilletes people were very old and civilized before your small band of nations consolidate into a republic. We're once an enlightened, conqueror of the northern, and a philosophical kingdom in the times of a late medieval period." said Darston about an old history of their people.

"You're probably noticing that our people were wildly different from person to person as because we're randomly expanding our borders while taking several indigenous tribesmen, localized nations and kingdoms along the way. Some of them aren't truly human by the way due to the tolerable policy conducted by the past emperor during his reign of the Militarian-Veilletes Empire, despite he was a atrocious warmonger by many eyes of the foreign nations." explained by Darston.

-

At the contested strait of Yahupi Confederacy, the VNMS Trionator and its escorts have started to engage against the Yahupi Fleet. The VNMS Trionator after receiving shrapnel attacks at the beginning of the battle has return with a devastating barrage against the Yahupi Heavy Battleships. Although not really the Veilletes greatest counter-fire of any world's naval history, the Trionator has managed to cause a single magazine explosion at the unlucky wooden Yahupi Heavy Battleship by penetrating through their ammo storage, tearing their ship in half, and thus leaving itself a smothering ruin echoing the remains in battle. The VNMS Trionator's escorts have started its match against other nearby Yahupi ships by an order of its ship class. Light cruisers presses on the Yahupi Heavy Battleships while deterring any cannon boats nearby, and the Veilletes destroyers will go face to face against the Yahupi cannon boats while deploying torpedoes at the Yahupi Heavy Battleships if they're getting close to it.

The old Veilletes Kingdom castles is more of a Frankish Architecture you see. Well, way before the union of Militarian and Veilletes Kingdom." said Veilletes Ambassador after entering Castle Weisswolf.

Upon sitting at one of many meeting chairs but closer to the Lady so he can hand out the documents, the Veilletes Ambassador told the lady if she is ready for his diplomacy discussion of the Republic.

@Nucleep

The Federation people nod. "It was nice doing business with you in return." the officer said to them as the returned to their ship. Some of the people went back to their daily routines and departed.

The warden that is in their area seems to be female, with long black hair and a somewhat muscular build. She rides on a medium sized horse, inspecting the slaves every few minutes and whipping those who aren't doing their jobs to her standards which are very high. From the looks of it, many people here seem to be somewhat new to the place though others have been here for years, as based on all the scars and whip marks on their sunburnt backs. There isn't really any tools or weapons these slaves could use that would be useful for a rebellion, and that's on purpose too probably. The merchant's group is split apart and they are sent to different, but equally horrible conditions of working across the large field of plants and fruit trees they are forced to pick and put the fruits into small baskets and such.

The Yahupi seem to be strong in terms of defense and numbers though their inferior technology is a main weakness in their forces. The warriors are skilled in melee combat and guerrilla warfare but not in traditional battles on open fields / modern style battles.

@Uncle Spanky

Ashnah floats up above the fog easily. She doesn't even need to use her wings, perhaps those are for a cosmetic effect or something. She started to head towards the large white object. Interested in what that might be.

They wrote down some notes on what Darston had explained. "Very interesting!" one of the people sitting at the table said and they were all impressed by what he had explained also. "Some of the people here are different aswell, because we were once a small group of nations and some indigenous civilized tribes. Though our differences no longer matter as we are united against a common foe and united in a common language and customs." the commander said.

_

A few of the smaller cannon boats were taken out and they sunk in smoldering ruins. Some of their people jumped off and starting swimming to shore though 2 more of the Yahupi battleships remained as some of the others were taken out. Though a few other cannonboats and 1 more battleship joined in the area and started firing upon the VNMS Trionator and it's escorts. The firefight continued and the Yahupi would not stop until every last man fought to the death or turned to side with the VNMS Trionator. One of the small cannon boats stops firing and the crew onboard that particular ship surrender though the others continue firing exploding cannonballs and musketfire.

The Yahupi have started distributing some of the weapons they had found in the Shupoli airships (Plasma Weapons) to where the main battles are occurring with the Veilletes Republic and the Federation. The Federation had did much the same thing as they started to do raids on coastal towns of nearby Yahupi islands and forces stationed there.

@CmdrAlfieq

ooc: the boardroom is in a office structure in the port, the castle is 2 kilometers inland.

The Lady is happy to talk about the castle.
"Castle Weisswolf is my second home. It's built in traditional Northern Europa style by our ancestors and has been renovated over the years with a recent upgrade works last year. The castle serves as base of operations here in the east, with its large port as you can see. Castle Weisswolf Port is the home port of the Eastern Fleet and its flagship, TNS Jibril."

She adjusts her hat and picks up her book and flings it at the ground to the soldier behind her who is standing by the wall. He picks it up and holds it with his rifle awkward but doesn't make a peep.

"Again, I have permission to conduct international relations on behalf of Queen Freja. Since you are keen on our architecture, you are welcome to a quick guided tour of the castle. It is a 5 minute drive."

[Apple]

The lab scientists at Fort Viktoriya have been tasked with inspecting the equipment found on the treasure ship.

The equipment will be catalogued and experimented with one by one, documenting every single spec and second of it as the trained experts and robots analyze them.

They start with an object that looks like a commercial oven. It's placed on the pedestal and is multiscanned. Temperature, radiation and other forms of sensing are also recorded constantly by a robot and beamed offsite live. The scientists in white labcoats inspect it and find a power outlet on it. They call for engineers to arrange a variable power source direct from one of the forts nuclear fission reactors.

"Very well. Few selected of my soldiers and I will take a glimpse on what technology that you currently have right now, and if I reasonably wanted to have your certain technologies, then I would try for a bargain if possible." said Outpost Officer of AA before waited and entering a spacecraft.

@CmdrAlfieq

In the sky, a UFO is getting closer and closer, before they know it it's right in front of them. The ramp opens and the blinding white light shines brighter than the sun as the two Martians enter the ship. They wait for the Outpost Officer and the soldiers to step into the ship.

Once they do enter, the interior is spacious and cold. They can immediately see a large control panel with a huge, green screen above it, displaying similar interface to the disc that the Martian pulled out, but not the green tint. The room itself is square despite the round design of the UFO. There are two metal doors to the left and right, each having a keypad to presumably open them. Two other Martians are at the control panel, and turn to see the Officer and soldiers enter. They turn back to the screen and press a couple of buttons, suddenly large rectangular panels of wall start to slide up. The locations of the panels are on the wall mostly but there is a circular one on the ceiling. Behind those opening panels were windows. The screen displays a "window" of it's own by showing what appears to be some type of video feed in the center of the screen, giving a wide range of vision to what's in front of the spacecraft.

The ramp closes up and the landing legs fold. The ship rapidly shoots up about twenty feet into the air, but the strange thing is that the soldiers inside felt almost nothing, that would normally result in them flying into the ceiling and getting a nasty concussion as soon as the ship stops, right? What is this alien sorcery? Before you could get finished questioning that, the ship then instantly starts flying towards the Colony. Entering the forcefield, they can see mostly nothing but red fog on the ground and barely anything else. In the distance a cluster of buildings surrounds a huge, white rectangular structure that seems to stretch up forever. Though for a brief second they spot something rising out of the fog, but it's gone before they can make out anything.

Ashnah floats up above the fog easily. She doesn't even need to use her wings, perhaps those are for a cosmetic effect or something. She started to head towards the large white object. Interested in what that might be.

@Aceofreality

She rises up above the fog, sound seems to deafen to almost nothing above the fog. The green sky turns to black, the temperature drops further, (not that she cares) she feels lighter and the air is incredibly thin. But then a grey object zooms over her head at breakneck speed. If that thing collided with her head, it would have reduced it to chunks of brain and bone without even moving the body. The thin air reduces the extreme winds that would have blown a normal man off the ground to what is now a light breeze. It seems to be heading to the object as well. She can see it's shape as it passes: A rounded disc with two dome shaped bulbs on the top and bottom. The classic "flying saucer" shape, almost stereotypical. A ring of glowing green light is plastered on the edge going around the ship. But alas, it was going so fast that was all she could make out before it was too far to see anything but a green wisp flying towards the structure.

@Uncle Spanky

She smirked at the flying saucer as it zoomed by. The thin air was no issue but she liked that light feeling and floated in the thin, cold air for a little bit, merely just enjoying the sensation of it. Her eyes tracked the movement of this flying saucer like a cat would with a laser dot from a laser pointer. She started to float after this flying saucer, starting off slowly but after a few seconds she started to fly faster. She changed direction suddenly to a more upward flight regardless of the thin air and moved in an arch towards the flying saucer.

She flew faster and faster before her body faded away into a humanoid green mist with a lime green sparkling to it which collected almost instantly into a glowing orb shaped with a thin layer of some form of clear material over it. Much like glass or something similar. The orb raced after the flying saucer and a 3 green helixes formed ahead of the orb which she went through which increased it's velocity until there was a loud crack in the sky followed by a lime green flash of light which shattered the helixes. The orb was only a round a foot in diameter. This orb was headed straight towards the flying saucer, but not on an impact course, it zoomed over the flying saucer while it too zoomed over the ground below before it matched speed with the flying saucer and hovered above it.

@Aceofreality

Onboard the ship, a Martian goes up to the right door, inputs a code, enters the room, and after a few minutes comes out again, with the door closing behind it. It repeats this process for the left door as well. After searching both room it goes up to the other non-pilot Martian.

"Has anyone onboard this ship seen the engineer-" It stopped talking as it noticed the strange orb hovering above the ship. Looking up it is visible to the people onboard, but to anyone outside it appeared to be the hull of the seemingly windowless ship.

"What is that object?"

The other Martian then looks up and stares blankly at it briefly.

"Could it be from one of our weapons? It is the color of the energy that most of our weapons shoot."

"But we would have no reason to fire at anything, we have not engaged in war or anything similar. It must be something else."

"We should investigate, this is something that we have not discovered. Pilots, please stop the ship but do not land."

"I have overheard your conversation and I accept the request." One of the pilots responds without even turning it's
mushroom-like head.

The ship then slows to a halt as the two Martian scientists enter the left room. On the outside of the UFO a panel suddenly opens, out coming two Martians wearing some type of spacesuit, colored a similar hue to the UFO, with a dome-shaped helmet made entirely out of a material like that of glass, with a white tint to it. They seem to glide along the hull of the UFO. They then approach the orb, staring at it with the emotionless, never blinking stare that is the only facial expressions these beings are capable of. They seem to be waiting to see if the orb just sits there or not.

The Kronfurter then thinks for a moment.

"Nope, only the non-aggression pact is sufficient." said the Kronfurter.

"The terms for the non-aggression pact of the A.A was stated as follows:
1. The establishment of AA Embassy at your nation. This will ensure a quickest way of negotiation between us and your kind without the requirement of maintaining and deploying long range communications.
2. Demilitarization of a southern Island Lake. Upon accepting this treaty, Militarists and Lanist Khaganate will not allowed to deploy any military presence at the water of southern island lake, and only restricted to maritime police force (patrol crafts) in which marked as the map stated.



That is all for the non-aggression pact." stated by the Kronfurter and before handed him with a treaty to sign at the end.

@CmdrAlfieq

Stephen thought for a second. Then he replied "Although the Khaganate would like a non-agression pact with your nation, these are terms we simply cannot abide to, and would give you an advantage above us. If this demilitarized zone were to exist, only our most northern ports would actually be able to launch any military ships. While you are on an island, so you could easily dominate the rest of this lake. Not to mention that we won't be able to protect any of our civilian vessels from pirates or worse using more than just the coast guard, and we can't protect our territorial waters against our southern neighbour. However, I do think establishing an embassy is a good idea, although we want to establish an embassy in your nation as well. However, seeing as this non-agression pact includes terms that are not beneficial to us, we decline it, and would like to propose a non-agression pact with only the embassy term.

The image of the map was sent somewhere else for further research.

The treasure ship follows the airplanes closely, before carefully making sure to land on the pad below them. Once again, a ramp opens on the lower end of the treasure ship as the crew walks out to meet their new trading partners.

@Nucleep

The treasure ship landed softly on the concrete pad. The squadron of five planes circled above the treasure ship for a bit, before flying away to somewhere in the distance. When the crew walked out they were greeted by a twelve heavily armed men.
Their leader said "Our merchants are still on their way here to negotiate the trade deal. We would like to know what you have on board."

The orb seemed to just float there for a few seconds before it floated a little closer to them, inspecting them. Then there was a brilliant lime green flash that blinded them for a few seconds before they saw that seemed to be a female human with light brown hair done in a bun of sorts. Dark green eyes, with a simple plain t shirt and a skirt that was also green. Her boots were also green and rather minimalistic. She also had dragonfly like wings that seemed to have a slight pulsing of light to them, a light blue light. "Hello!" she said to them, smiling.

The Martians stand there, tentacles slowly swaying side to side. It is impossible to tell if they are impressed, unimpressed, confused, bewildered or remorseful, but calmly contemplative. What is seconds seems like minutes before one of them finally speaks.

"Human, why are you following our spacecraft? Why are you here? How can you breathe in this atmosphere?" It inquired with one question after another, right after the other. The other one just keeps staring, one tentacle raised up and going back within the mass of tentacles like it is ready to pull something out. The Martian then shoots another round of questions almost immediately after the first round.

"What are those insectoid wings and how do you have them? How did you transform from a green energy to a human?" Thankfully this round was shorter and asked more obvious questions.

@Uncle Spanky

She floated there for a few seconds to let these questions sink in, she thought about her answers for a few more seconds as she floated there without much a care in the world. "To answer most of your questions it's because I'm not human. As to why I followed here I was just seeing what was around, more or less. My 'transforming' is just form shifting, energy shifting. I can will myself into any form at a single thought or gesture. I don't need air to breathe. I don't need to breathe! It's fun not being limited to one form!" she answered.

"Now I have few questions for you! What are you guys? What is this place?" she asked.

[Apple]

As the multicannon starts spooling up the banging stops. One of the merchants asks worriedly, "w-what are you going to d-do with us?"

@Uncle Spanky

The cannon spools down.

A whispering can be heard.
"Don't you think... this is wrong?"
"Shut up or you'll be reassigned!"

The same voice shouts
"SILENCE CRIMINALS."

@Aceofreality

As she answers the questions, the Martians only stand there, presumably listening. How they feel about the answers is a mystery. But then she asks a couple of questions as well, as soon as she is done one of them answers.

"Most humans call us Martians due to us having a research colony on the terrestrial planet of Mars. We do not actually originate from Mars. Unfortunately other humans on the terrestrial planet of Earth have been shown to be capable of space travel and quite recently have taken an interest in colonizing Mars as well. Since we want to research humans without making it obvious that we are researching them, we demolished the base and have since put a research station far away from the Solar System so we can still study them and be almost certain that humans will never discover it."

The other one then answers the second question.

"This is our colony. We have terraformed a large amount of land into a version of Mars that is more habitable. The red fog you see is a substitute for oxygen, but we plan to fill the entire colony with breathable air."

"Humanoid, if you say is true, then what species are you?

@Uncle Spanky

She rose an eyebrow upon hearing the name "Mars". She listened to what was said with a degree of interest. "Ah, the planet Mars. Quite an interesting place. I've been there a few times in the past millennium. But it wasn't Mars as you know it... I'll let you decide what I mean by that." she said with a grin and got slightly closer to them.

"As to your question. We are known as the Q. My superiors have allowed me to come to this world and watch it's progress. And for...a good laugh or 2." she answered.
