"I certainly hope you're right. It took the great mage Ciaran all his strength to seal Efreet away, along with most of the Deus Ex Machina project. The sealing process took such a toll on Ciaran, that it drove him to madness, not that it took all that much. He later delved into necromancy and wound up casting a giant magic circle that encased the entire North-Eastern hemisphere, now known as Terra Mortuorum, the Land of the Dead. Any living thing that steps into the circle immediately dies and is turned into an undead abomination. Last we heard, Ciaran turned himself into a litch and performs all sorts of unholy experiments." Says Valgus. "But enough of that, why is Bruton so hell bent on destruction?"

[Reed Teran]

Dude: He's literally made of evil. His dad Bolagius was formed from the essence of Primal Darkness, along with his race, the Demonians. They're well-known for their sheer, unmatched villainy, and they worship my mom, KAssil, Queen of Evil and Goddess of the Dark. My dad, Eltin, the King of Good and God of Light, had to stop them from destroying Eltin's Wall, an invisible shielding around Bruton's planet that prevents Kassil from going anywhere else, three times. I mean, you can see it from here, it's that huge planet at the center of the star system. It used to be a star.

*he points in the sky, as in place of a sun is the hulking, Solar-System-Sun-sized planet Duunaros, in all it's volcanic-fire-and-brimstone glory. They can clearly see a few citadels and fortresses, along with the massive Planetary Gun.*

"Geez... and here I thought Sigma's BALC was big..." Says Caligo as he looks up.

[Reed Teran]

Zaara: You can try and take em on, I can't guarantee your losses will be under a million.

Dude: Every assault on Duunaros has failed miserably. Even with Doom pushing hard to try clearing a landing zone for allied troops. they always get blasted. I'm also going to say this...unless you have some pretty strong shielding, that big cannon up there will crack your planet open like a walnut once you reach it's targeting arc in orbit. Judging your distance...it'll be a year or so until you pass under it.

Zaara: You don't have anything by then, you ought to say goodbye to your planet and atmosphere, because the shell carries a element that causes oxygen to combust violently. You'll either die in a vacuum or burn to a crisp.

 

*Zim is recieving vague suspicion from the Brutonian Officers, by the looks they're giving him.*

[Raven]

"Great, 99% of the population is fried instantly and the rest deal with Efreet when he terrorizes the rest of the Nexus... Splendid. This whole event is a disaster..." Says Valgus, being pessimistic.

 

"Worry not, sir knight, for all we must do is fortify our defenses. If thine scientists can make a man like Inertia with the power he possesses, then there is not a reason that thine scientists could not do it for the planet." Says Klinge, patting Valgus's shoulder.

 

"Yeah, plus we've got a year and the rest of the Deus Ex Machina project, the ones alive that is. Hell, I'm pretty sure you could just throw Sigma in front of the beam and he'll eat most of it." Says Caligo.

[Reed Teran]

Dude: Beam? That thing's a gigantic cannon that fires a big damn shell.

Zaara: Yep.

Dude: Anyways, I have to go, I've technically done too much. The Seraphim Order has to still judge your planet.

Zaara: If your leader and a suitable defender wants to come with us to defend your culture and secure a spot on the Planetary Alliance of Eltin, be our guest.

[Raven]

"That would be me, I will act as leader in Elacia's stead." Says Valgus, stepping forward. 

[Reed Teran]

Dude: Yeah...will that work, Zaara?

Zaara: Ehh...Justice would probably throw a fit.

Dude: Pshah, she's cute when she's angry.

Zaara: Right! Then away we gooooo!

*Dude, Zaara, and Valgus disappear, and reappear in a place of clouds and gold, with angel girls floating about, carrying on their business.*

Dude: Welcome to Haven, guy! Order Hall's this way.

*they walk towards a gold-trimmed palace of pure silver, adorned with statues of angels, Dude, and various heroes, and littered with flags. A few of the Order's members can be seen duscussing things around the front of it...all noticeably female angels.*

[Raven]

Valgus follows suit, looking around at his surroundings, he and the nearby angels noticing the similarities between them and himself. If they weren't told that Valgus is merely the Nexus Commandant, they would think that he is some sort of king or possibly a demigod, what with his silver armor, brilliant white cape, long white hair, elven like ears, and an aura of order and power.

 

(The term Commandant is used in the Nexus as the term for General, since there are only two main corps of military and both can be managed by him. The only one who he answers to is Elacia.)

[Reed Teran]

*as he enters the big building, a large podium circles around the group, made of pure gold. About 30 various characters of wildly different species are seated about them.*

 

Lust: Alright. State your planet and it's alignment.

[Raven]

"Pacifica Vastum, we remain peaceful or neutral." Says Valgus in a powerful voice.

[Reed Teran]

*some of the council laughs.*

 

Dirk: Relax, buddy, we're all friends here. just answer the questions, no need to be all official.

[Raven]

Valgus looks perplexed to say the least, to him, that behavior is normal. Valgus is a very formal, "no nonsense" type of man. His idea of casual attire is a button up shirt and slacks, compared to either his armor or business suit. (If that portrays his personality more.)

[Reed Teran]

*at this, a man with a not-so-friendly air about him pipes up, with his small pencil moustache and uniform. Josepp Remmel, one of the owners of Hulley and Remmel Manufactory.*

 

Remmel: This is all goot, but vat are your defensive und offensif capabilities?

[Reed Teran]

(HIGHLY IMPORTANT THINGS!)

 

*during the war preparations on Duunaros, Lord Adrion has managed to use his vile lies to sow discord in the system, painting the newcomers as "comparable to the men of old" in their tendencies and warmongering. Due to this swaying, several nations on the United Forces of Good have begun gearing to meet these "invaders" head on, most notably GUNSC and UALI. Should they invade the new planet unapproached and manage to land troops, Pacifica Vastum will be fighting an unwinnable war, due to Adrion's strategic mastery and planning as well as his masterful deceit...and the Brutonian Armada's big plan to attack when both sides are weak enough, wiping out three big enemies at once and sending fleets to devastate Mobius and Lubrique, who would by then be lacking navies to defend the planet along with a good chunk of military.*

[Raven]

"Are you referring to the Nexus or my own personal capabilities?" Valgus asks.

[Reed Teran]

*Hulley, the other owner of Hulley and Remmel, leans down.*

Hulley: I do believe he asked you what your peoples' defensive and offensive capabilities are, wot.

[Raven]

"The Nexus boasts the military might of a interstellar fleet with 10,000,000 varying ships for every occasion. 0.5% of those ships are outfitted with AA Ranked Planet Buster cannons. Also, we have what is called the Deus Ex Machina Project, a series of hyper elite warriors capable of fighting wars by themselves. One of note, Sigma, finds sport in playing pool with star systems." Says Valgus.

[Reed Teran]

*much discussion happens, that last comment bringing out some worry. An angel comes forth with news!*

Valkyrie: Everyone! This guy's part of a race trying to take over the Paperverse!

*collective gasp*

Zaara: What?!

Valkyrie: One of our messengers came back with a message from Otherworlder command! IT said that these new guys plan on taking over!

*Valgus gets quite the death glares.*

 

*meanwhile, Pacifican airspace is, once again, breached, by two different fleets, the UALI, touting a large array of various ships, and the GUNSC, sporting a medium-size fleet. They both manage to make contact.*

Fleetmaster Veddek: Attention, invaders! This is Fleetmaster Anton Veddek of the United Armies Space Armada! We have been notified that your race plans to take over the system, which we will not allow! So we're prepared to take the initiative, and attack now!

Fleet Admiral Harper: SHADDAP VEDDEK! We don't negotiate with terrorists!

Fleetmaster Veddek: YOU might not, but we at least entertain the thought!

[Raven]

"Invasion?! What is this nonsense?! We are a peaceful people, focusing of building diplomatic bonds, not mindless take overs! I demand to know who is spreading such lies!" Booms Valgus, severely insulted by the comment.

 

 

 

 

"Are you f*cking kidding me? We are in ruins here! Whoever gave you your intel is a nutcase! We just fended off the Brutonians, give us a god damn break!" Yells Caligo, growing impatient. 

 

"Begone, ye dogs! We hath done no wrong, ye are mistaken!" Says Klinge, drawing Renegade.
