Volkus watched the sensor screen as the Carnaithian fleet transited in system huge amounts of ships... too many... Volkus thought, A Carnaithian representative had told Volkus that he wanted to speak to the Union for some sort of urgent matters. Volkus didn't know what matters he meant but he accepted the message and so had arranged this meeting in the Pavonis Prime system, the home Union territory in Ancerious. As the ships translated a few shuttles headed down to the planet and Volkus smiled to himself
"Time to greet the guests" He said and he walked outside to the landing pad, an honour guard of Union troops surrounding him as the Carnaithian shuttle touched down.
Royal guard Rictuld was going in-system to meet a union representative, Volkus. Rictuld knew he needed at least a few ships... but even though he had to compensate due to ship size, he was thinking he had overcompensated in the fact they had more FP-TS ratio than any other empire here.
"Sir!" he heard his tenant behind him.
"Don't say it, the MR-71s are ready, are they not?"
"They are, sir. #RF-01 is waiting, with YF-02 and YF-01 for support, in case"
"Thank you, salven, stay here and make sure no one comes in my rooms"
"yes, sir" he left without any other dialogue, going to the MR-71-unarmed variant, mind you- to go down to the union base world here on matters concerning shadowblade and the coming war. when he got down, he exited his craft as the doors in both the port and his ship opened.
Volkus watched as the man walked down the ramp from the shuttle he smiled and stepped forward. His blue uniform resplendent in the Panonian sun.
"Greetings" Volkus smiled extending a hand "I am Captain Volkus of the Union of Worlds and the representative you will be talking to. You have matters to discuss?"
"Indeed i do" Rictuld spoke as he extended his hand, his dark red & black colored uniform, sash, and pauldron contrasting with volkus's uniform. "we must speak of the shadowblade, but do you have any updates we need to know before we begin?"
"Not currently though im sure something will come up. This galaxy holds alot of surprises..." Volkus said. "Come we shall convene in the confrence chambers. At this Volkus turned and walked from the landing pad with Rictuld following him. Behind them Union guards marches and as they made their way trough the corridors Rictuld noticed the distinct numbers of guards in this place. Eventually they came to a large chamber filled with a long table and surrounded by chairs. Volkus signalled Rictuld to sit and did the same.
"So you wished to discuss Shadowblade... Why?" Volkus asked. Rictuld sat, pulling several briefing devices out of a nano-storage unit on his arm and set them up.
"First off," he said, activating a hologram, "the shadowblade don't hold personal values and are quite daring in their endeavors, so they can be destructive." he pulled up holograms of several different types of shadowblade ships, with a battle between IIA and carnaithian forces against the shadowblade. "look through these if you need more info on that battle, as time is at the essence, i feel." he then slid a portfolio across to Volkus, with a pair of HUD glasses to translate the carnaithian writing. "now, we don't have any current problems with them in ancerious, but they are a force to be reckoned with." he said, finishing that topic. "now, about the possible war on the horizon, against the Immortal empire. is that threat the reason you have so many guards currently? i apologize for not keeping up with news, but i have never been very attentive to the intranet and holonet. i was also busy helping Tenebrae"
Volkus took the glasses and studied the Hologram for a moment seeing the ships move and fight with tactic displays and statistics.
"Why would they attack the Union? As you said yourself our primary concern is the current war. From the sounds of it we may be getting dragged in but i dont know why we aint already involved..." Volkus wondered. He then looked at Rictuld taking off the glasses.
"Where do you currently stand on the war?" he asked.
"With our allies, of course, too answer your question, and for your other one, all allies of carnaith are of threat by the shadowblade, and as we said, they are a considerable threat" he said, with a twitch in his right eye,"i apologize, a combat injury, is all, some of us like to keep our scars." he said, swallowing a tablet of medicine so that it doesn't happen again, "in that portfolio" he said, pointing to the one next to Volkus, "is for you to keep and share with your forces, making sure you get behind the shadowblade ships to attack them and other tips are in there for combating shadowblade"
"Thank you" Said Volkus "Ah yes battle scars. I am thankful yo have had my leg recontructed from when it was destroyed in space combat when my bridge was hit..." volkus sat staring into nothing for a moment as if recalling the battle. "So do you think Shadowblade will strike and if so where?"
Rictuld nodded, understanding the stress of battles past, "they will probably attack on a small outplanet or space group, their idea of a warning or joke, to basically try to 'recruit' you" he said finishing with curling his fingers on recruit, "we have sent envoys to several other empires including Tenebrae, and the emperor wants to know what the next time he and Myric may speak, if possible.
"Hmmm ok i shall tell the patrol fleets to step up a readiness level. And recruit us? No instigator of chaos or darkness would ever get our help. As for the Emperor... I shall relay a message to Admiral Hargun to give to the Emperor. Hopefully then they can meet again" Volkus said bringing up a holo screen above him and typing a message out.
"Thank you, Volkus" Rictuld said as he rose and collected his things, "anything you would like to discuss before i leave?
"Yes... as a matter of fact. I know your empires knows that the Union hasn't intervened in the war yet... What is your governments opinion on that?" Volkus asked.
"We honor the choices of allies, and are only prejudiced when it is a threat to Carnaith and it's territories" Rictuld said, "and we have no objections to your emperor's decision" he said, smiling until a message tone sounded on his armset, he then read it, "that's actually one of the things Daniel has put on his list for a discussion with Myric..." "well, anyways, is that all?" Rictuld said, straightening his uniform.
Volkus nodded and stood up. "Yes that would be all my freind. I will ask are you staying? Are you Carnaiths new emmissary for the Union? You didn't specify"
"Well, i do like it here..." he said, pulling up his armset and sending a message to the amethyst tower asking if he could be an emissary, instantly getting a confirmation he may. "well, i guess i'm staying," he said, smiling and looking at Volkus while sending a message to his forces to head back to system HQ leaving his personal frigate in orbit here. "now, are there any quarters available?, i'm not meaning to be a trouble by asking."
Volkus laughed yes of course this way in the emissary wing. Volkus gestured out of the room and both exited. Volkus led Rictuld down even more guard packed corridors until they got to the emissary wing where two Skia stood. "May we enter?" Volkus asked. The two massive beings nodded and the doors opened Volkus turned "They are Skia not very freindly or interactive fellows but damn are they frightful in a fight... Anyway your quarters are just here" Said Volkus opening a door into a spacious apartment "If there is anything you need just use the coms" Volkus smiled.
"Thank you, i look forward to more conversations" Rictuld said, smiling.
Volkus nodded and walked off as he exited ambasador wing he turned to the two Shadows "Watch over our guest and make sure he is aquainted if he requires anything tell me" The Skia nodded.
"Another for our cause Volkus muttered as he walked away.
