A wormhole opened up and more vessels entered the battle, hundreds of ships fired at one another, the darkness of space lit up by the fire from both sides

& then...nothing..the bright lights replaced by a growing darkness, the shadows befgan to consume the vessels unlucky enough to fall into it and thena giant burst of light...the vessels that didnt escape were engulfed the nearby sun that had started expanding before finally ceasing to be

That was the result of Bekhaera's first conflict in space

A war that changed the shape of Bekhaera forever, empires forged,wars fought but now a new conflict is emerging, former colonies of Bekhaera have risen up and challenged the empire

& now the war has begun to slavage the empire who after years of stagnation and recent terrorosit atrcotities inside its borders seek to re-establish itself within the affairs of nations

June 24th Minerva Station In Orbit Above Bekhaera

"sir the station is going nuts, we have no idea what's causing all these readings but from what we can gather it's not good" screamed ensign Tobias, the station was in a frenzy

The orbital station was the last lien of defence for Bekhera, time and money had been pumped into it and it was the prize of the High Guard of Bekhaera, a weapon so sophisticated many more advanced nations covetted it

All of a sudden out of nowhere a great blue light appeared on the horizon of space, so large was it that it could be seen even from Minerva

"Sir... readings are picking up unidentified vessels..hailing them now, ready when you are Admiral"

Admiral Tebashi, one of the finest soldiers that bekhaera had produced in its recent history, adopted by Bekhaerans after his family's homeworld was crushed by unknown an enemy Tebashi strived to becoem the very best

"Patch me through.. This is Admiral Tebashi of the Orbital space defence station Minerva, cease your trajectory, you are not allowed to enter Bekhaeran Imperial territory" Tebashi proclaimed over the comm network, he sat down and brushed the sweat from hsi brow and then said

"And now we wait..."

OOC :
Hmm , now that we've re-established relations ...

IC :

An Imperial Protectorate Force , which was one not to be fooled around with was immediately dispatched to Bekhaera upon the recent re-establishment of ties and relations .

Their businnes intentions was good , but if they receive negative treatment , it will quickly sour .

From a great distance, a sharp pair of blue eyes patiently waited,
Portals into a mind inhabited by unshakable desire hitherto unsated.
Residing in a grand tomb of black stone immune to the besieging light,
The Highwayman thought deeply and quickly considered the odd sight.

"What to do I critically wonder, as I peacefully sit and simply ponder,
To participate in the eerie conflagration of fire, or only casually wander?"
A stoic frown turned to a wide and menacing and almost demonic smile,
The obvious decision manifested itself within him after just a short while.

"'Keep thine rickety vessel steady in the tumultuous current of time,
Let not Lady change have her sway over that which is rightfully mine.'
Quoth The Sandman, Book XIV. His words hitherto have rung always true,
Because of this, I look into stone heart and realize what it is I ought to do."

Upon an island of obsidian granite shaped into deeply stepped layers,
The Ionic beast moved silently towards the readying Bekhaeran players.
Quickly through emptiness into the eminent fray with an unnerving grace,
The Sandman's Zealot stood and began shouting with indignance into space.

"Bekhaerans, hear an old, and tired man out as he speaks to you now;
For I bring with my words the Sandman's wisdom your minds must allow,
To take hold their irrevocable truths before the inevitable first blow falls,
For with them victory you will surely know, and in histories hollowed halls."

The words were spoken once, said in The ancient tongue meant only for
Bekhaeran ears. A chance of salvation offered to them, and no one more.
The Sandman would be pleased, thought his ever-watchful Zealot stoically,
As he awaited a response to befall him through the void, to his simple query.

"Sir we have replies from two different vessels, one is Mationbuds..the other..the other I dont know.. should we hail them sir?" Ensign Tobias asked, he was slightly worried, where had the other vessel approached from

"Mationbuds, welcome to the Bekhaeran empire home system, you know it well already, thankyou for coming and accepting the emperor's offer of alliance... please make your way to MINERVA station, there we shall heaad to Bekhaera" Tebashi spoke over the comm system, but the other message, so starnge Tebashi thought, so different to anyone they had dealt with

The message was...an old tongue many Bekhaerans were taught of but nottaught, Tebashi knew it well, hestudied hard and a dead language of Bekhaera was alive againm, he began to speak back to the unknown vessel in the tongue

"Your reason for being here is..we shall grant you passage to MINERVA station but we must know more of you, we cannot simply allow you to pass through without sufficient information, we are in the early stages of war within an unknown foe"

IC :

"Acknowledged . We will proceed as requested . We would ask for an armed escort to show us the way around here ."

The Flotilla adjusted its trajectory in the direction of MINERVA and jumped to hyperspace ...

The eger Zealot nodded as he took to heart the many Bekhaeran words,
Understanding their extreme reluctance, readying their shields and swords.
The old man sat again and pondered his next crucial words in all due haste,
The Lady churned a constant tempest in the sea; there was not time to waste.

"There is much to know of me and the Sandman, but no time in which to
Tell. However, what time the Lady allows, I grant some knowledge to you.
I am Ze'Oran, devout follower of the patient Sandman and his steady ways,
Old am I, but wise to. I work for your benefit, and shall till the end of days."

The ship of stone kept its course ever steady, through the void, a stone
Angel of surreal qualities. Ze'Oran was tired, restless, and cold to the bone
So he sat yet again, after having risen to again speak, hopeful in the intent
of his message. That the Bekhaerans would realize the great truths inherent.
