USS Republic Mission Briefing 51609.19 The Republic's away team has been able to secure the shipment of J'Rom's elixir from the disabled Yridian ship, while the others postured and threatened, though presented no real threat due to their size and inferior weapons. We don't know if any earlier shipments got through, but have at least confiscated this large quantity. The away team has returned to the ship. Begin Sim Begin Sim Begin Sim STSF_BluRox -> Helm, move us away from here Ayumu Kasuga -> Aye aye.. Backing us off. ::Does so:: Rue Wydown -> So we know they have some of the elixir, what do you suggest we do now? August JAX Robinson -> Blow the ship up? Rue Wydown -> And go through a court martial? Heather Jamieson -> :: On the bridge at the science console :: STSF_BluRox -> There is a start. Beam what we confiscated off our portside and destroy what we have from them Rue Wydown -> What do we have to preserve for the chain of evidence? Are we okay with just the recordings and paperwork? Ayumu Kasuga -> Hmm Rue Wydown -> And do we need to provide the 'Fleet any samples for the medical care of those who were affected by it in the first place? August JAX Robinson -> you want to omit reports from HQ? Rue Wydown -> Heck no. I just want to make sure that if we destroy what we've confiscated so far that we won't get ourselves into trouble for further prosecution of these idijits. Heather Jamieson -> :: Waiting to see what was to happen :: August JAX Robinson -> oh, no. we won’t get in trouble Rue Wydown -> I like big fireworks like the next guy :D Rue Wydown -> ((This is the Republic - of course we'll get into trouble)) 36:08 Ayumu Kasuga -> Big fireworks are nice. Rue Wydown -> Heather, you're the scientist. Do we have to save any samples? Heather Jamieson -> We have a saying that if you have to ask the question you already have the answer. Heather Jamieson -> There are secure methods of archival. Rue Wydown -> And has that been done? ::smirk:: Heather Jamieson -> Just give the word. Rue Wydown -> Word. ::points at her:: Heather Jamieson -> Shall I take this undertaking personally or assign it? And what security level? Rue Wydown -> Jax, you want to coordinate with Kasuga for the fireworks once Jamieson is done. Ayumu Kasuga -> All right, let's do it Rue Wydown -> High security level. And yes, as you're the highest ranking science officer we have here. August JAX Robinson -> Sure thing Christina_Nickles -> :: staying near the samples guarding Heather Jamieson -> I'll be back. :: Exits the bridge :: Christina_Nickles -> :: in the science lab on guard:: Ayumu Kasuga -> Hasta la vista, baby Rue Wydown -> Got any extra sparkly torpedoes for the explosion?

Let me get started. Rue Wydown -> I know we've got a pink shuttle, so I was wondering about the torpedoes... Ayumu Kasuga -> Pink torpedoes? Heather Jamieson -> :: And she started the process of archiving the samples. The computer would catalog and then set up a secure seal on the contents:: Rue Wydown -> Well, that or ones that give off extra sparkles? Heather Jamieson -> How have you been Christina? We've not gotten a chance to catch up over a whiskey,,, Heather Jamieson -> :: She moved sample to the casing it would be stored in, a mix of chemical and thermal processes :: August JAX Robinson -> Sparkles? Christina_Nickles -> been busy with this mission Ayumu Kasuga -> ooh Heather Jamieson -> Yeah, and look what I lead us into Heather Jamieson -> I had hoped this was the final push in this horrible sector. Heather Jamieson -> I mean, Risa may not want us, but this place surely does not. Rue Wydown -> ::chuckles:: I'm just teasing you all. Ayumu Kasuga -> We were just at Risa.. Heather Jamieson -> +Bridge+ This will take a few more minutes.. but the sooner we get this off the Republic and into a more secure facility the better. Heather Jamieson -> I know.. and I wanted to swim at the beach more.. Ayumu Kasuga -> Ahh. Ha ha. Heather Jamieson -> I should put these in the Admiral's liquor safe, but then Jax may find it.

RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING 51609.15 Koga and tr’Shalor have assaulted the fourth platform while TA and her team has made their way to the third and are installing the computer program. While they work to take over these orbital defense platforms the Talon in the fleet are attacking the main Galae Station.

Lerak trPexil -> :: Tapping controls :: Venting the smoke on all decks.. will take a few minutes. trShalor> Meet me back on the RAC Koga, I want to go check on the battle and if we will be able to reach our next objective or if one of the other team has been able to get to it first Koga S'Bien -> ::nods:: All right./ Laehval tTemarr -> ::She noted that the decoy probes were working beautifully. They spread out to "beef" up their fleet, providing false targets to the station's weapons systems. Shots fired at them registered as misses, but the occasional lucky shot got through, picking them off one at a time.:: Koga S'Bien -> ::Does some quick testing and heads back to the RAC once everything works fine:: Laehval tTemarr -> ACTION> The Talon swings about to give them another attack run at the station, focusing on the forward weapons array. Several shots slam against Talon's shields, rocking them violently. Most decks were reporting some sort of damage to engineering. Injured were streaming into medical or one of the emergency triage areas. tAehjae -> $:: her RAC heading back towards tr’Shalor and the Talon.:: Lerak trPexil -> :: Pex rocks in his seat, which is not a good sign considering how hardened the section of the Talon is :: KhreRiovtRex -> $ Station ops > Rekkhai, we have sustained heavy damage to our shields, down to 43%, weapons power down to just over 50%.

Several hits were taken causing shields and damage to the station before shields were reactivated KhreRiovtRex -> trShalor> Koga, let's get to that next platform they surely have been alerted to us by now and we would have to most likely fight our way in but we have to stop it Koga S'Bien -> ::nods:: Yes, I see. THat would be quite bad. Lerak trPexil -> +Laehval+ How much longer? The Talon is talking a beating. $ station ops> Rekkhai, our fleet here has taken heavy damage as well as the station. We have lost control of Galae Headquarters on the planet and reports of fighting at the Tal Shiar headquarters is not promising as well. Our fleet has taken extensive damage as the other patrols have not yet returned to help in the defense. It appears that two of the defense platforms which we were turning toward the planet have been boarded and taking a control of, what are your orders? Laehval tTemarr -> ::Targeting their main shield array on their next pass, she loosed another volley to disable them further.:: +Lerak+ We do na know. We have had na word from the team.

KhreRiovtRex -> $ OTS Commander> Have the other two platforms been turned toward the planet? If here's the two mainly targeting the capital have been taking out however the one can still cause extensive damage there and the other should be able to hit one of the medical facilities for which we received word that many refugees had gone towards as soon as they are targeted enough begin firing hopefully that'll take their attention from us long enough for us to recall our other ships. In case we need to withdraw. Are we able to still set the station self-destruct mechanism? Laehval tTemarr -> +Lerak+ If needed. But we will na fail! It is na an option! Laehval tTemarr -> ::She punched her console angrily, furious that that their ship was taking so much damage, furious that her crew was put in danger.:: KhreRiovtRex -> $ Station ops> Rekkhai, we have taken too much damage from the town and her attack force. The engineers are not sure they can hold the shields much longer weapons power almost depleted. They are uncertain if they will be able to set the self-destruct mechanism other than have someone stay in manually activate it shall I order the fleet to standby for our withdrawal ? KhreRiovtRex -> trShalor> Koga, are au reading any Life signs of board that next platform? Is still rotating it is almost within firing range of the planet we may have no other choice but to disable it and damage it if we are not able to board.

Koga S'Bien -> I'm not detecting any lifesigns on the platform. tAehjae -> $+trShalor+ The program is installed and awaiting activation. The team had made it back to the RAC and heading back towards your location to assist if needed. KhreRiovtRex -> trShalor> It may be that they have withdrawn or at set a trap. However we do not have much time you and I will be in a board and trying to stop it's action. We will have to depend on the other ships and TA to get that last part one before it time Before it targets the airy were many of the refugees have fled 59:47 Koga S'Bien -> Alright, let's do it. Laehval tTemarr -> ACTION> Another blast hit Talon's shields, sending them down a few percent. The ship shuddered in response and several power nodes overloaded as the power drain taxed them. The inertial dampeners whined as they tried to compensate for a sudden pull as helm tried to avoid another attack from the station. They flickered briefly, causing the ship to shudder, tossing everyone about. KhreRiovtRex -> $ OTS commander> Train weapons in their two main ships that Tal Shiar ship and the Talon. Order attack wings to concentrate upon those ships I am ordering command and made forces to withdraw to our sweet ships to withdraw to regroup. Set station for self-destruct.

http://www.tvguide.com/news/star-trek-50-anniversary-marathon-bbc-america/ In case you missed it, BBC America will be running a 50th Anniversary Marathon of Star Trek - The Original Series (Uncut) starting on Thursday Sept 8th, 2016 starting at 8:30 pm EST. (and some TNG leading up to it). Nice chance sit and reminisce. Great way to introduce your kids to the series as well. The saying (and book) that "All I've learned in life, I've learned from Star Trek" is sort of true for me, as it was something I grew up with, and was one of the first shows I remember sitting and watching with my parents (along with Lassie, Batman, Gunsmoke and many others...that's what we did back in the 60's and 70's...family around the tv nights). It's moral teachings, dilemmas, social situations, were always current with world events, and even today....a lot more people in the world, could do with sitting and being made to watch this show and get their priorities and idea straight. (Ok, off my soap box now). Anyway....just posting and sharing. It's been a big part of my life, and if you are reading this, I'm assuming yours as well.

RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING 51608.25 - Season 21 The Talon is moving to join the rest of the fleet and press our attack against chRihan's main orbital station.

RES Talon Mission Briefing 5160707 - Season 21 When we left off, t'Vatrix had just laid out the parameters for the upcoming mission as well as announcing that N’Dak would retain control of the Talon and tTemarr would remain as his XO. t'Vatrix in the meanwhile would be over seeing fleet operations from the Talon until such time that Terronix might rejoin the fleet. The crew had been tasked with a few critical items. Medical to research and help devise a way to assist against the bioweapon which has been used. Security to work on a way to regain control of 2 critical orbital defense platforms over the capital and Engineering to help with both tasks.... helping medical with containment fields and delivery systems, and helping security by providing the virus that was used earlier to take over the communications arrays.

USS REPUBLIC MISSION BRIEFING 51606.20 - Season 24 The crew has been working together to determine just where and to whom these raider had been planning to sell their goods and hidden elixir they had gotten from J'Rom's lab during all the chaos at the end. After interrogating Stan and Rue listening to Malcom in the brig, we had determined that they were planning to sell the stolen Federation technology as well as the transformation serum to someone through a Yriidian trader and his group of thugs. Blu had proposed a plan to potentially go after them, however Rue felt it was not worth the risk...... and....this is where we'll pick up..

Heather Jamieson -> AM: There are several systems with little traffic, and some with heavy traffic, but certain areas are rather dark. STSF_BluRox -> I'd like to get August and Will's thoughts as well, if they think this feasible, putting a replacement team on the raider's ship Heather Jamieson -> AM: Let me make the computer map possibilities based on Starfleet's encounters with similar threats over its history.

Early morning, approximately 2 months ago…….. A strong storm front had blown into the province two days past. Dark, low-hanging clouds, heavy with moisture finally had let loose their torrent. Wind blown rain, pelting all in it’s path in vertical sheets had forced windows shut, moods depressed and an increased sense of gloom which hung over the manor. The frequent bright flash and following rumble of thunder had kept the two children from sleeping well since the storm had started, and truth be told, herself as well. Things had gone from bad to worse of late. What had become a home full of joy, a loving family with their new child and hope for the future, had changed so quickly with a simple order from the Fvillah. The hru'hfirh tr’Vatrix’s bond mate, so suddenly recalled to service, with na good reason obvious to those hrrau the household staff, just made na sense. The only explanation they could deduct, as they dare na ask the Hru’hfirh, was of how the political firestorm continued to haunt the woman, even after she had tendered her resignation. A resignation, in which she had relinquished control of her ship, often a matter of contention with the Tal Shiar since her rejuvenation, and had made the commitment to remain on the home world to raise their son. Qiuu the staff had even noticed how light her mood had become since she had chosen her new path, and foresaw good tidings upon the house, their master and themselves. The sudden order however, was io that qiuu hrrau the manor now saw weigh heavily upon the their lord. Left with an urgent need for a wet nurse with the Llhei’s expedient departure, and na time for the hru’hfirh to do a broad search for someone suitable, Nemeria had informed the hru'hfirh, that her sister was currently nursing a child, about ready to wean and could take on the care and nursing of Val’ron as well. Her sister So’Ria’s bond mate had recently been lost in duty to Galae, reported missing and presumed yy’a when debris from been found of the ship upon which he served. As her sister’s bond mate was already hrrau Galae’s security files, she was quickly cleared. tr’Vatrix had given his approval and left it to Nemeria to make arrangements for her sister to move into the manor and have a room near the nursery as to see to the boy’s care. For Nemeria, it was also a relief to assist her kin, as she had worried about So’Ria living hrrau the mountains with just herself and her child, Nemeria had gotten up early that day, unable to get back to sleep after being woken by the frightened children, who in turn, had been awoken by the thunder of the storm. The storm had been gaining in intensity, and it had felt as if it would come through the roof. It had been almost time to wake and be about her duties anyway, so she gave up, had thrown off her blanket and stepped out onto the cold floor to make her way to the fresher and make herself presentable for the day. They had received word that the Hru’hfirh was due back to the home world tonight, after having spent time on the orbital station to handle some work he had to complete there, and hear reports from some of his subordinates. She really disliked having overheard his plans, however he had her complete trust, and she would na ever divulge his secrets, as she and the rest of the staff were sworn to him, and could have na better master to serve. She wanted to be sure that all was in readiness, upon his return, so that he might try to relax. The staff had heard or witnessed him pacing the manor, the gardens and beach, as if trying to make peace with his thoughts, but realizing that these were the same areas that he had most of late, spent time with his bond mate, and hopefully brought him some measure of peace. Knowing that he may well have others of his staff or important guests arrive to share the evening meal, she felt it best to have some sort of repast ready, that could easily be used for the next evening’s meal as well if na all was needed, and made note to the cook to prepare the meal appropriately. However, she had however also noted that the bar was in need of restocking, of na only his favorite wine, but the harder liquor he had been frequenting more of late. She heard movement down the corridor and went to look in to be assured all was well and noted her sister was up early caring for a fussy Val’ron, who had now also awoken So’Ria’s son. As the day was early, Nemeria waited a few siuren, and then offered to take the child to walk and rub his back to soothe him back to sleep, while her sister saw to her own son. She needed to go down to the lower levels of the residence to check on the wine reserves to ensure the correct vintages were available to compliment the evening meal, so she shushed at Val’ron and told him he was going to help his father, by learning to pick the correct vintage. She would make sure that he was well educated in the social necessities that were expected of io of his station would be. Carefully she cradled the boy as she went down the stairs. Taking care with each step, as she did na wish to take a misstep and send them both tumbling. As she walked among the stacks, she rocked the child back and forth, cooing at him hoping he’d go back to sleep. Fahd, muffled by the thick stone the quiet was refreshing, without the constant hammering of the storm outside. Val’ron had finally nodded back off to sleep in her arms as she took the inventory when she felt ground shake beneath her feet, and again, as the building above her shake violently. Shock, surprise, and a possible realization that something was majorly wrong all hit her at once. She must keep calm…she had been trained what to do, and now, she would be expected to do it. She had to do it, as those attacking them could have only io thing in mind…… to yy’a the child she now held, a child she had sworn to protect at all costs for the family she served. Na, na just served, but had been made to feel she was a part of their household. The hru’hfirh’s bond mate, often treating her as an equal, and just sitting down to converse with her and share a story or a meal. She was na the monster that many had made her out to be, so was so much more, though, she did still retain a temper that io did na wish to engage. The Hru’hfirh had made it clear to her, that he was entrusting the care of his son to her when he was away from the manor, if something untoward should occur that could endanger him. He had warned her, that in the future days, weeks and or months, that there was always the chance that there could be an attack on the residence. If he were here, or na, though he doubted anyone would target women and children if he were not there. Whether this was an attack or na, she could na risk reacting and not doing as she had been instructed and trained to do. In the weeks prior, the hru'hfirh had instructed her on the codes for the escape passage that he had been built into the lower level, which descended down the beach side cliffs below. He had made her drill through the procedure, pressing and pressuring her as she did it, to make sure she could while under pressure and time. Once the escape passage had been accessed it would seal behind her, and she would make her way downward to where there was set up a small vehicle shed, which was hidden from direct view. Varl'on had long suspected that io day there could be an attack of some sort, and this was a precaution that he and his bond mate had put into place. He had known, that if they had pushed so hard to separate he and his bond mate, it would be only a matter of time until they tried something. But they had to make sure there was a backup plan, if neither of them were there or able to get the child to safety. Nemeria quickly crossed over to a small panel and typed in the well practiced codes, which opened a small safe in the wall. A small packet containing alternate identification cards for covert travel passage, Val’ron, Var’lon and L’haiy as well as a set for Nemeria in case she had to follow through during her care of the child. Encoded were travel vouchers, monetary chips for accounts that had been set up under those aliases, as well as genetic proof that Val’ron was indeed of House tr’Vatrix if that ever needed to be proven. Torn between running up to find her sister and nephew, her answer came quickly as an explosion threw both she and the child against the far wall and then to her knees on the floor, desperately cradling the child to protect him from harm. Clearly the house defenses had come under attack and had been breached. The explosion and heat from the fire forcing her to crawl towards the panel that would give her access to the escape tunnel. The Hru’hfirh had been correct hrrau his assessment. The roaring flames eating at the ceiling above her, let her know there was no way to get back up to her sister, and she prayed that somehow So’Ria had been able to escape with her son as well, as she heard subsequent explosions rocking the grounds. It took her 3 tries to get the correct code to enter in her own panic, as she grabbed the packets and a wrap to put around the child, she entered and sealed the passageway behind her, and quickly made her way to the cavern below. Arriving at the bottom of the long enclosed stairway, she found a small boat tied at a dock. Dark water lapped hungrily at its sides as the storm outside continued. She knew she only needed to go a short distance, and she was well versed on the use of this boat, as she had occasionally used it to meet local fishermen to obtain fresh catch from the sea for the evening meal. but she knew she could na expose herself while attackers may still be hrrau the area. She would wait, but the wait seemed to be an eternity. What if they found the passage down to where they hid? Outside and overhead, hidden within the sounds of the roaring storm, was clearly the whine of two ships making strafing runs firing at the manor. She knew from being drilled by tr’Vatrix, not to panic, nobody would be looking for her here, that she must wait until it was safe to move, then take the small boat and pilot it a short distance to an adjacent cove, where a maintenance shed also housed an old family flitter. She would be ok. She would be ok. She would be ok. She just needed to convince herself of that, and was na doing herself any good panicking. Carefully she stepped down into the craft, and placed the child into the bow, making sure he was secure and the compartment sealed to protect them from the elements and weather. She then moved the craft towards the entrance and waited, terrified to go out. What if they saw her? What would she do? Shortly, the sounds of explosions and overhead ships, which had seemed to go on for ages, but in reality had just been a few siuren, had ceased, and she risked moving the small craft out of hiding, and along the coast, heart pounding so hard in her chest she was afraid it would burst right out, or someone would hear the pounding noise it was making, each heartbeat ringing hrrau her brain. Shortly, she saw the target cove she had been trained to look for, and headed the craft into it, and towards the small maintenance shed, that also had a covered dock. Na one would see the small vessel once she entered and tied it off. Nemeria pulled the small craft into the covered docking slip, she secured the rope and sat there in shock. She had not realized how long she had sat, until the insistent cries from the child woke her out of her shock and despair. She picked up the child and held him, na knowing who was crying more, herself or the child. She remained sitting, holding the tr’Vatrix child, the waters still lapping gently at the sides of the small craft as it rocked them both with the stillness. Elements!! It had happened. The worst fear that the lord of their household had held, had actually happened. Someone had dared an attack!! An attack on the home!! What cowardice could have incited such an act?! Military ships attacking women and children when many were still hrrau their beds. Most would have had na chance to escape, she was stunned and horrified of the thought. Finally, she knew she had to move, if only to make her way to the small fresher nearby. She carefully climbed from the small craft and carried the sleeping child over to the flitter and placed him onto the seat. She made her way over to the desk to check the security panel as she had been drilled to do several times. He had made her do this trip repeatedly of late, to ensure she knew how to escape if necessary. She had always felt it a drill to ease his mind, as who would dare to such a thing to tr’Vatrix?? He was the current head of the military, and if it were up to her and many of the other staff, they felt he would have made a much better Fvillah than their current leader, but that was something they could never mouth out loud, for fear of a Tal Shiar agent overhearing and reporting them. She hadn’t imagined that if it had been necessary to have ever used it, that it would be while the master of the house was away. What type of cowards attack a household of sleeping children and servants?! So she stood, trembling in the chill of the morning, alone in a maintenance shed with the son of her master, entrusted with his care and survival. Flicking on the security monitors, most of the feeds were na functioning, however she finally picked up an external view from the lane approaching the estate. The entire east wing appeared to be ablaze and had collapsed. She felt her knees go weak from the shock and horror, knowing she had left her sister and nephew there, just a few floors above, and she knew in her heart, that there could have been na way for them to have escaped the blaze. Not only them, but many of the household staff would have been starting their duties for the day, having arrived from the servants quarters. Her legs finally gave out from beneath her, and she collapsed in a heap on the ground and let the tears stream down her face. What were they to do? Who was still alive? And where was tr’Vatrix? Would such an attack happened if he were alive and well? Had they thought he was at the residence and now yya as well? Fear caused her to lean forward, retching up the small breakfast she had partaken before she had begun her duties and she leaned back against the wall, full of despair and uncertainty. What was she to do. Ie, tr’Vatrix had given her specific directions, but what if others had known of them as well? She buried her face in her hands and sobbed, not sure she would survive this day, wondering what she would do, until she heard the sound of the child starting to fuss over on the seat of the flitter. Hurriedly she pulled herself up, brushing the dust from the floor from her garments and moved over to check the child. She knew from the drilling that tr’Vatrix had given her, that she would have a small window to escape unnoticed before such an occurrence would bring more to this location, and having na way to tell who would be friend of foe, it was best to avoid them all. Securing the child for his safety, knowing that basic items had already been pre-packed into the cases in the back of the flitter, including a bag for herself and the child, as well as a few days of food, military field rations, but still, it was food. She pressed the door controls to allow the vehicle to exit the shed, and then close again as she slowly moved the conveyance towards the small lane and towards Varald. Once there, she was to assess the local news, and make a decision on how to proceed. In her thoughts, she decided she could more easily blend in, if she made her away to her sister’s home in the mountains. Very few lived in the area, thus prying eyes would na be a problem. The few that lived nearby, while na personally knowing the couple and child that lived there, knew only that a Galae officer away on duty, along with his wife and child lived at the end of the lane. Her best option, until she was able to verify her sister and nephew’s status, was to blend in and head to the house. Once there, she would take the identification of her sister So’Ria and her son, and hope that nobody came asking questions. She had been ordered to use one of the false identities, but this made more sense, and if there were any genetic tests made, she would be a close match for her sister. It could work, and if somehow her sister had escaped, or if So’Ria’s bond mate were ever found alive though the debris made it doubtful that anyone would ever be found. She would cross that bridge later. She had been ordered to keep the child safe at all costs. Nemeria wondered to herself, if that meant for the long term or short, as it had never been fully spelled out. If either tr’Vatrix or his bond mate returned, would it be safe to return the child to them just yet? Or should she keep him hidden and safe, until such time that the dangers of the recent political uprisings had long faded? She had heard tr’Vatrix talking to visitors, to himself, watching his anger grow over what had been done to his bond mate and Galae hrrau engeral. In reality, would the child ever be safe with either of them in this climate? Could she in good faith to her sworn oath, even consider returning the child to them? In the near future, or ever? It was going to be a heavy burden to decide, but with how things had just developed, a burden she would have quite some time to bear, and time plenty to decide.

RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING - 51606.09 - Season 21 Our strike team has taken control of the Galae Headquarters Operations Center, and have been checking records to see where certain persons of interest may have went. One of which, was Proconsul tr'Merk and Krein t'Vren of the Tal Shiar. After securing the prisoners and searching them, we start making contact with our other teams to move to the next stage of the battle plan. t'Vatrix however, seething in rage over the words of the one Tal Shiar officer alluding to the death of her son, and having already sworn vengeance against those that had wronged her. t’Vatrix, planned on setting out to go after t'Vren and taking t'Aejhae with her.

RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING 51606.02 - Season 21 The team, using the ruse of presenting the captured Khre'Riov to the Command Ops center, in hopes to catch tr’Vren there, has been able to gain entry, and after a rather quick hand over of their 'unruly prisoner' have handily dispatched the 8 men in the room, and have rendered one unconscious who claimed had been coerced into assisting the Othan Tal Shiar. Up above, the sounds of the air battle still are felt with each shot that hits the ground or impacts a large ship above. One of these ships, have sent reinforcements both medical and dheno to t'Ksa at the Retor facility to assist and lend her security so she may work.

RES Talon Mission Briefing 51605.26 - Season 21 Having used a secreted passage, created for covert escape from Galae Headquarters if it ever came under attack, our team has used this same passage to sneak our way into the building, while having made our initial assault upon the Retor, as a ploy to draw our enemy’s attentions. Several of our other combined Galae and Tal Shiar continue the assault there to draw attention, while other forces have deployed around the Capital to try to take back as much as possible, and spread the Othan and traitorous members of the Tal Shiar thin in their attempts to hold it. Above the city, a fleet comprised of ships that escaped the initial take over, ships that the Daise'Khre'Riov had stationed elsewhere in case just this should happen, as well as our own Talon have joined forces to fight against the Othan ships above. Our team, had made our way almost to the command center, and are disguised as Tal Shiar and Othan guards, bringing t'Vatrix to be turned over. We pick up where we left off....
