Colonel Nakhi Welhan* ... * "To be honest, while a war would be a quick one to take this planet over, neither I, the General, the Emperor, or any of the Senate want that. We just want to live here as well. If that comes to be a problem for anyone on the planet, then we can leave with no traces we were ever here. At least, not a physical trace." ------------------------- OOC : I will suppose that your Colonel will follow me in ''the room'', after the meal. OOC : By the way... concerning your ''type'' of technology for your civilization... Did it followed a more ''projectiles/physical'' based tech. or a ''energy/particles'' tech. for your weapons or technologies in general ? Like... Gauss rifle, heavy alloys and big things OR Laser rifle, energy shield and lighter things ? Mine tends to follow a path toward the ''energy/particles'' technologies. ------------------------- Waiting for the meal to be finished for both of them, which was quick, since they were almost already done. Nova-voice : '' Now that we have finished this meal, I will be able to show you a few interesting pieces of our technology, to conclude this meeting. Now if you would follow me into the next room.'' Joining the move to the words, Nova slowly started to walk toward a small double-door at the other end of the meeting room. Nova-voice : '' I'm not sure, if some of our technologies will impress you, since we don't really know what path you choose to develop your technologies, but we will surely find something interesting to trade...''

OOC: We have a mix of both energy and projectile weapons. Colonel Nakhi WelhanI stood up and said, "Excellent, I would like to see what you have. Of course, I wish I could show you the tanks that we might sell, but those are hard to transport. Anyway, lead on. I think we might find something interesting to trade."

"However, if you don't want us here, we can leave with no physical traces we were ever here." The translation was thankfully quick between the members of the Tinisian delegation. Before to Cali or Miokalian groups could ask to be recognized, the Secretary again made it know he had a question. "Thank you, that is a good answer," Cecil paused for a moment as he changed gears in the memorized lines in his head. "If you are to stay, how would you wish to bubbles with the nations of this world?" "Uh," Zuvameretalis stepped in to help the Secretary. The Secretary had flubbed the pronunciation of interact spectacularly. "The Secretary mean, if Anean is here to stay. Will you be acting to exist in isolation here on this island or will you wish to maintain contact, and hopefully friendly relations with the nations of this world?"

Emperor Nakhi WelhanI had a smile a bit at that. "Well, we would definitely want to stay in contact and have friendly relations, possibly cultural exchanges, and such things like that. And, instead of calling us the Anean, you can shorten that to ASE, or Anea. Anean would refer to nationality."

Upon the arrival of the Anean Emporer's escort, Dr. Dosh and the Apparat of Haoromatic and Other Aviation held a briefing with Sec.Tajir, Vuela Konig regarding the scientific observation and assessment of the Anean's mechanism of arrival.
Dr. Rose Rohhere, An orange allosaurid, read off the prepared synopsis of the Apparat's analysis of the situation, "Shortly before the arrival of what we now know to be the Emporer's escort, we did detect a very slight, background neutrino burst from a some point above the orbit of the detecting system. It appears that the vessels had exited their superluminal transfer in space, not in the atmosphere. However, we did pick up a very fine stream of lomnino-photons from Quomsat TK20, which correlated to the arrival point of the vessels. Lomnino-photos suggest the use of some kind of CP-perturbance type of FTL, but that doesn't really explain anything by itself. If it were an implementation of an axial clamp like the kind we're working on, then the exiting Lomnino stream would have been much denser and more pronounced."
Dosh asked, "But none of the spontaneous condensation of Pucons that usually indicates a telephasing activity"
Rose said, "None. It's safe to say their system does not require telephasing to acquire data on a destination location. And that they didn't use a telephasing method based on our definition of the process.
This does actually support their assertation that they didn't know there was anything here. Since telephasing could in theory, produce data which could be used to determine the presence of a civilization. Or not."
Vuela said, "Thank you Rose, that's one thing to check off of our list of possible dangers from this. I guess we'll see how the conference goes."
--------------------------------------
in the conference:
Ambassador Zoro addressed the Anean Emporer: "Greetings from the Federal Republic of Miokalia, I'm Ambassador Zoro Blargenheit speaking for our Secretary Tajir Vuela Konig and Apparateur Adie Qualt. Just curious: Is the indicated policy of your approach here also the case for other worlds where a similar situation is met? Or do you in general have a pretty good rate of success at finding relatively uninhabited planets?
And also: are there any enemies or rivals of your empire who might now be drawn to this planet? This is, as you may understand, a security topic of much concern."

"Generally, we send scout ships to systems to locate an uninhabited planet. However, I was not going to send a ship two million lightyears to find an uninhabited planet. So, we took a shot in the dark by entering random hyperspace coordinates and hoped that we'd arrive somewhere.
"As for enemies, there is... one. However, I have no record of them ever exiting the Andromeda Galaxy and any incursions by them are dealt with with the full cooperation of the entire galaxy. They are the worst threat the galaxy has, and continues, to face.
"I understand why you'd want to know that. If there was ever an incident where our enemies would come here, then I would be sure to work to prevent a landing. On that note, I intend to keep my escorts in orbit around the planet as a security force. It is only five battleships."

The commonwealth delegation stood at the back without bowing but looking at the Emperor, as a collection of monarchies they might be the obvious alliance. But they waited to be asked, the people of the commonwealth never bowed to anyone but their own monarch, the teerie (their oldest people) didn't even bow to their own queen.
The oldest people from the south waited to be acknowledged. The head of their council of monarchs may have only been a duke from the duchy of leck, but he represented the queens and princesses* of the major powers and the duchies of the lesser.
--- *Note the lack of kings and princes.

I noticed some people in the back standing while everyone else sat.
"You all in the back, you seem silent. I figure that there is something you would want to ask. I am sure you never had visitors from space before."
I laughed a little at that.

Duke Leck smiled "You would be surprised."
It was a lie but he was not about to let the Emperor know that.
"What naval forces are you planning on bringing here? Air forces? we are willing to extend our protection to your people while you consolidate your position. As one of the major powers here we would be willing to do so as your supply lines as long and our orbiting defence system is stronger than it looks." Leck ended
He figured that the Empire hadn't picked up the highly stealthy system the commonwealth had up there, but was highly unlikely to admit to that. If they had detected it they would have spoken sooner as even he knew that they had multi mega ton and some giga ton nukes up there (possibly tera ton ones, but the air force never said what they had).
As always the commonwealth kept it's cards very close to it's chest.

"For naval forces, if you speak of water ships, I am thinking of reactivating an old dreadnought and transporting it here. For space though, I will keep five battleships in orbit. There is no need to provide protection for us though. I am sure that the three hundred ten thousand soldiers we have will provide an adequate defense against your primitive technologies."
Hmm... that might have come out wrong...
I did notice that both IX and Rio looked somewhat excited. K'an though, looked like she was about to get mad.

Leck looked thoughtful his was a land locked duchy but the commonwealth was largely islands, well that and the only practical way to attack the commonwealth was by sea.
"I find your deposition of forces odd, for an island. Well in your case an island in space far from home. I would have thought you would want a greater navy if for no other purposes than to secure your trade routes and defend your shores from peoples that might wish to take advantage raiders and the like. You have not mentioned your air power.
As the expense of bringing ships from home is no doubt high I thin my people may be able to provide you with the ships you need. Corvettes and smaller to deal with those kind of issues. I the meantime we can offer you protection while we construct the small ships.
Corvettes as cheap and are produced in numbers. We have found them far better at shutting down raiders than any larger ship because they are there a smaller number of larger ships are far less effective.
As for our primitive tech...you might be surprised*"
*Leck was not lieing there what the commonwealth had hidden in orbit for one.

"I have not mentioned my air power because I think I deserve to keep a few secrets. As I assume that is what you all are doing. General IX informed me of a misunderstanding yesterday, so I have no reason you trust you. That and our air forces and naval forces are all combined into our space force.
"And again, we don't need your help in defending trade routes. If you have a big enough airport, which I expect you don't, then we could land our heavy freighters there.
"And as for your primitive tech, there is not much that could surprise me. Care to show me?"

"Zuva?" asked Cecil in Tinisian during the exchange, a little worried.
"Uh… the Calie are trying to give the Aneans a reason to ally with them. Possibly by threatening them with surprise weaponry. Uh…"
Cecil stood up. "Zuva translate for me," he said once he had everyone's attention.
"The Secretary is surprised by this behavior in both parties here," Zuvameretalis translated. "Tinis is well aware of the fetish the Cali have for their ships and how they want everyone to either purchase their protection or purchase their ships as well. What more, we are well aware that Anea probably doesn't need the help of the Kingdoms to protect its interests and that by insisting that they might have surprise weapons with which to threaten the Anean colony Cal is very much making a threat to our visitors. Duke Leck might wish to end this game now by apologizing. Trying to force an alliance under the threat of a gun is no way to make friendships. We realize there are people in all of our nations who are fearful now but this is not the way that things like this should be done!"
There was a slight pause for Cecil to catch his breath and Zuva' to finish translating.
"An initial meeting like this is a sensitive matter. We are thankful to know your intentions on this planet Emperor. We had hopped that the intentions of others were more wholesome. I hope that the saber rattling of another nation does not reflect poorly on all of us. There are times and places to negotiate trade pacts, alliances, and what not but first contact is not one of them."

"I agree. I think an apology is in order Duke, or, you know, we can always surprise you with our weaponry. you have no idea what we have, but I will tell you that in a week, we could have a fleet in orbit that will cast a shadow over this planet. And, unlike my advisors, I would not be afraid to use it."
Both IX and Rio let out a sigh and put their hand on their faces. Did I say something wrong?

OOC: We have a mix of both energy and projectile weapons. Colonel Nakhi WelhanI stood up and said, "Excellent, I would like to see what you have. Of course, I wish I could show you the tanks that we might sell, but those are hard to transport. Anyway, lead on. I think we might find something interesting to trade." As they both entered the next room, Nova quickly thanked the Scientific-minds to have provided the ''samples'' so quickly. The room was a rather wide, but much more long room. The right half of the room was like a firing range and was separated by what ''could'' look like a thick wall of ''glass''. The left half was entirely empty, but the ground had many lines and panels connected together. Near the entrance, on both sides of the double-door, there was 2 tables with various equipments on them. Nova-voice : '' I will start with something that have the potential to be used for a Civil or Military purpose.'' Then he took and put on him what looked like a simple gray-blue vest with a few dark colored squares on it. '' This vest here is in fact an ''Omni Medical-Armor'' and is the latest union of our medical and advance robotic technology. This vest monitors in permanence ALL the health signs of the person and will react to them accordingly...'' '' If I cut myself, get hit with a bullet, get burned by an energy weapon or anything physical, the OMA immediately dispatch various medics in order to stabilize and heal the person, if the damages are light. In case of heavy damages, the system will release a controlled quantity of medical nano-bots. The OMA also have a special ''Hazards Detection Unit'' that allows it to detect and analyze almost any chemical, biological and radiation types known and to dispatch what's needed to counter them, along with nano-bots if the exposition is heavy. The armor properties are also pretty high, since its made from some strong, but light metal alloys and a material that I will show you soon.'' '' But before I continue, do you have any questions ?'' OOC : For the ''Sapphire Transparent Material'', that I will soon talk : www.photonic.saint-gobain.com/transparent-armor.aspx
