"Sir! We have found a new colonised solar system, local name 'Sol', located in the Milky Way Galaxy." "The Milky Way? Are you completely sure that this information is correct?" "Yes sir! Initial scout reports have detected complex life on 2 planets, 1 dwarf planet, and multiple moons, although it seems that only the 2 planets are colonised completely, while the other celestial bodies are outposts for research." "This system has been detected at a very opportune time... Do you know if the Frea Covenant has taken notice of it?" "Unfortunately, it seems to us that the Frea Covenant and the Arakhari are already preparing diplomatic missions to the system. Would you like us to infrom the rest of the Coalition?" "Hmm... Have the Obsidian Order been informed?" "We believe their real life fleet is on it's way to blocakde the system from any outside influence, so that the standard introductory procedures can be taken. They are prioritising this as they understand the strategic position of such a system. Add to that the movements of the Frea and the Arakhari, and you can see why they want to get there first." "Yes... we will have to talk this out with the rest of the council before we take any significant actions. For now send out five of our Scout Corvettes, each with full companies of special forces equipped for espionage. I want to know every last detail about that system, it's politics and technology, and what the Arakhari and Frea are doing. If possible, sneak some of our custom AIs and capsules into the system, provided you can do so without alerting the Order. Make sure that at least a few of the... What is the species called?" "Humans, sir, however the Frea call them earthlings, both in a derogatory fashion and because of their home planet, Earth." "Well then make sure that a few of these humans are put through the Ghost Program, and receive the AIs necessary." "We will do what we can sir. I will say that the council will mostly likely wait till the humans are shown Oixon before deciding anything. You know how scared they are of the Order." "Yes, I know very well. Now go, I want information as soon as possible." "Yes sir."
