Where one second ago there was nothing but an empty patch of space two light seconds outside of Tauron, there now was a 200 meter long ship. The four oval discs of stressed gravity that constituted her Warshawski sails quickly dissipated as the ship transfered its power from the alpha nodes of its impeller rings to the beta. The result was the formation of the impeller wedge which would be used to accelerate the small vessel through space.
Her design was that of any warship of the Farstar's Confederacy. It was spindle shaped with two bluff hammerheads for a bow and stern. But this was not a warship any longer. The Princess Cecile was an old obsolete frigate, a ship two small to be militarily effective in the Wall of Battle. But she was a sleek design and quite space worthy, as such she was retained as a fleet auxiliary and used for diplomatic missions such as this one.
It would be the first contact between the Colonies since they fell under the authority of Admiral Hellena Cain.
A message was sent to the Colonial government. If they could receive video they would have saw a tall and pale women with short red hair. She extruded a sense of confidence and did not carry herself like a civilian in her mannerisms. She was also quite stunning, her angular face would have been remembered by any who saw it even if it was not for the long jagged scar that ran from the center of her forehead down across her eye to her left cheek. She began to speak slowly and purposefully.
"To the Colonial Government and Admiral Helena Cain. My name is Daneh Ghorbani, I am a diplomatic envoy from the Republican Remnant and the Farstars Confederacy. We come in peace and wish to start diplomatic talks between our two nations. Please respond."
