Qwelva Warp gate
It was time for yet another exploration mission taken on by the IPN, as always it was a completely blind jump and all that would keep the ship in contact with the Empire was its Warp gate Buoy which was also it’s only means of coming home in a realistic time frame.
A Resolution Class (http://phenixica.webs.com/imperialphenixicannavy.htm) by the name of IPN: Hammer was the ship selected for this task, it was a new class and had to be tested for its capabilities in inter-galactic conflict and one way of doing so was sending it to another galaxy to see if it returned. It might sound harsh but the Officers had an unnatural and unhealthy loyalty to the Empire, it was all they knew thanks to the centuries of Phenixican dominance of the galaxy.
It might sound like the ingredients to an aggressive power but in fact the Empire was forged by an aggressive colonial policy, The Imperial Senate hands out colonial grant to groups of over 2000 people and they are given one of the thousands of planets in the Empires influence. The Navy exists purely to protect these colonies and that’s why they are much more suited to standing the line then breaking it.
The Hammer was under the Command of a Captain Michael Williams, a man in his late 30’s who this was his first ship of his career.
IPN: Hammer, Bridge
“Gate has been opened sir; we have clearance by the Court to access”
The bridge (http://phenixica.webs.com/apps/photos/photo.jsp?photoID=28469919&prev=1) was a practical sort, as was most of the ship. People press away at buttons mostly checking that everything was in order. The captain sits in his uniform resembling something from the 1800’s he stood in the middle of the bridge with the obvious look of fear in his eyes.
“Let’s go, you know our orders”
As the ship goes through the gate into the unknown another ship was watching in the distance, it was the IPN: Glory II the flagship of the entire navy and personal ship of the Empress.
IPN: Glory II, personal quarters of her Majesty
“We should have sent somebody with more experience; we haven’t had contact with that galaxy since the Rouge Legion disappeared. The Empire could still be running rampant and if they found that ship they could learn the location of the Citerian” This was John Doe, Captain of the ship even if it was pretty much the Empress’s while she was there.
“We just need a small amount of information, some scans and hacking then we have all the information we need and we head back. Besides the Resolution class is more than capable of outrunning any Star Destroyer, He will be fine have some faith in him”
“I notice the absence of your Fiancee”
“Almerius is on business in the colonies; his legion has been dispatched to help in building the Observation grid in Ex-Qwelva Space”
“I do hope your right about Captain Williams, he might have been a good student but this mission is way over his head”
“Information on enemies is the key to our survival; we need to know how the Galactic Empire is doing in order to make any needed preparations. We are not a Empire built on Conquest, we can’t send thousands of clones to fight our enemies thanks to the fact its illegal. Any information we gather can potentially save millions of lives”
