The Empire has recently occupied the planet of Paulo III. The people there are both culturally and intellectually inferior to us, and we have tried to civilize them and build bridges between the two of our races, but they have repeatedly beaten away the Olive Branch. Now is the time for the Knife. The people of the planet are charged as such.

Continued Terrorist Action Against the Empire.
The Murder of 200 Arborians on the surface.
The assasination of the Governor.
Grand Treason.

If found guilty, the people of the planet will be sentenced to death. We would appreciate a moderator for the court.
Paulo Von Gerrit Vespeterium III. Supreme Chancellor of the Corporate Empire of Vespeterium Minor.

Message
To: Supreme Chancellor of the Corporate Empire of Vespeterium Minor
From: Councilor Chien Han, Empire of Thrashia

Greeting Chancellor, I am Chien Han a member of the Imperial court of Emperor Shadaum IV ruler of Thrashia. I have been asked on behalf of my emperor to extend a hand of help in this manner. I have thus accepted this and now extend to you my services as a mediator in this trial, to help perhaps solve the situation in a form better fitting of so highly a placed society as that of Vespeterium Minor. I therefore hope that you will accept, and good day.

~End~

Thank you.

OOC: I will have Chien Han arrive soon, I have other things to attend to at this moment.

The Empire decided to send a message in reply to this...

If you find them guilty, my country will be happy to assist in exterminating them. :mp5:

Like a small spark of light on a darkened canvas, the diplomatic cruiser Sierra came out of hyperspace. It cruised forward for a few moments, its log computers calculating where they were.

"Have we reached Vespeterium Minor space?" a voice asked over the comms. The co-pilot clicked his comms headset. "We are approaching the planet Paulo III at this moment Coucilor Han, we will arrive shortly," he replied into it. The comm fizzled for a moment. "Very well, continue on Jurgen," said Han.

The planet Paulo III hung in space before the craft, it was a blue-green orb in space. Jurgen noticed the large congestion of VM fleet ships located about the planet. A capital ship, followed by two escort cruisers, made interception movements on the Sierra's vector. "Unkown ship, identify yourself or be fired upon," a hard voice said over the comm. "You have entered controlled space of the Corporate Empire of Vespeterium Minor."

Jurgen flipped a comm switch and moved the dial to the ships freqeuncy. "This is the diplomatic ship Sierra, bringing Councilor Chien Han of the Empire of Thrashia. We have orders to have him brought to the planet concerning matters of its population's trial," said Jurgen. The comm was silent for a moment, the capital ship coming slightly closer.

"Affirmative Sierra, your expected. Follow my approach vector closely and I will guide you to the staging area," said the voice.

"Copy that, Sierra out."


The large capital ship led the Sierra into a heavily armed docking facility. The escort ships had already moved away, their missions fulfilled. "Sierra, this is Station Command, you will be docking at Port A-14, at the 36' angle port," said another voice over the comms.

"Copy that Station Command, I'll make my docking run now," replied Jurgen. He and the pilot guided the cruiser into position then set it beside an extended arm of the station. Large magnetic-field arms locked on the side of the ship and locked it into place.

"Sierra you have successfully docked. Welcome to Planet Paula III," said the voice.


Chien Han stood up from his seat and stretched. The trip had only taken 17 hours, but it was still tiring. Chien moved over to a lavitory and entered it. After relieving himself he washed his hands and looked at himself in the mirror. His tanned skin and small dark oval eyes betrayed his heritage, as did his name. Yet his eyes were powerful, adding to the man's height of 6ft. Chien washed his face and stepped out of the bathroom.

He moved over to his bags and picked them up. Jurgen appeared out of the cockpit. "Shall I take your bags sir?" his aide asked. Chien nodded, and launched the bags in Jurgen's direction, they floated over to the young man. 0 gravity was such an interesting thing, Chien thought. He smoothed out the tight-fitting black uniform he was wearing, a single line of white buttons moving down the middle, and the two gold bars that connected the neck collar. His shoes he also saw were shined.

Once more he smoothed back his short black hair and breathed in deeply. "Well Jurgen, let us go."

The two men stepped into the lock and held onto the elivator capacitor. The handle decompressed it air and launched upwards taking the two men and Chien's luggage up into the lock. The machine slowed when they came to a slidding door. It opened and they entered. Both quickly put their feet on the floor, a red sign on the wall said gravity would soon return. When it did, one of Chien's luggage bags fell to the ground in a great thump. Jurgen cringed. "Sorry sir," he said. He quickly picked it up.

The far doors opened and in a white metallic hallway stood a man in a civilian outfit, flanked by two uniformed fleet officers. "Welcome to Paula III Councilor Han," the man said with a smile.

OOC: So...let me get this strait. you're tryinh an ENTIRE planet?

To: Supreme Chancellor of the Corporate Empire of Vespeterium Minor
From: System Lord Osiris, Holy Empire of SeaQuest

"We have monitored your transmission regarding your 'trial' of a planet. I have been personally dispatched to make sure the Imperial Will is known."

OOC: I think Paulo has already started to purge the planet in another thread somewhere.

The Second Sebecean Democratic Imperium would like to observe this trial. We also offer to help exicute the population if they are found guilty. However we ask that you spare the children. You could use them as slaves or condition them and conscript them into military service.

:D Where did all the good guys go? I've suggested mass genocide and there hasn't been a single objection. Am I going to have to do the unthinkable... and become good to balance this out a bit?

I/We greet you in Mother's name.

Mother has decided that the Thyrian Hive and Communities will send an Emissary to witness the trial in order to judge for ourselves the emotional state of your species and the appropriateness of potential future interaction.

In this matter we are also willing to act as mediator/co-mediator and to suggest possible approaches to the pacification of the world without having to resort to wholesale slaughter.

If this message is accepted, the Hive Representative will be Mar-jusaani m'si of the Malaaki Belt Community and will arrive in an armed mossar-dein diplomatic flier, accompanied by an escort of Guardian Thyrians, all but two of which shall remain aboard ship during the trial - they are present for protection during transit only.

Mother's will be done.

Matriarch Irai-krathiri Jordaio m'li of the Creche m'li, Malaaki Belt Community.

OOC: I thought I was the good guy...Chien's job is to try and appeal your order to kill them all....I'm still waiting for you to reply to my previous post...

OOC: Ok, sorry, I'm sure you are a good guy. By the way, the trial has been put in suspension due to a massive Civil War breaking out in VM. The rebels have set up base on the planet.

OOC: Then jsut post your welcome party telling Chien Han that, make things go a little further on..

IC: A Cheops class long-range personal mothership drops out of a Hyperspace Window and approaches the Vespeterium Minor station at which the representatives where gathering on. A message was sent.

Vespeterium Minor station, this is the I.S.S. Eye Of Ra. This ship is carrying the SeaQuestian representative, System Lord Osiris. You should have recieved a notification informing you of our arrival. This ship is not equipped with an air-lock, but we will send a shuttle over with Lady Osiris aboard. Requesting approach vectors.

OOC: Note, I never said I was in favor of genocide or not. I just mentioned that Osiris would let the "Imperial Will" be known.
