A long time
ago in one of the many galaxies.
The
intergalactic autonomous ship under the banner of Mandalore completed its
centuries-old journey, reaching the orbit of the planet KS1307. Local natives,
intelligent inhabitants of the planet, called it Nau-Ten. The Grand Council of
Elders has just ended aboard the ship, at which a decision was made by majority
vote to make contact with the inhabitants of this planet. The analyzed data
about the planet and its inhabitants opened up new hopes for the crew and
passengers of the flagship. For successful contact with the natives, at the
Council of Elders, it was decided to present the inhabitants of the planet
Nau-Ten with the Great Gift in the form of a bridge between two continents. It
was a new way.
**************
The Grand Council has just ended in the Hall of Elders. The 5 Elders who were present left the hall in turn. The Viceroy was supposed to be the last to leave, but suddenly the GAZE sphere lit up, and it swept through the hall - “And you, Viceroy, I ask you to stay!” The doors to the Hall of Elders closed, leaving the Viceroy alone with the artificial intelligence.
The rest of the Elders weren't surprised by
this turn of events, as the Viceroy often stayed in the Hall of Elders alone
with the on-board computer, which was his workplace.
The Priest and Master went about their
business, preparing an appeal for the crew and passengers about upcoming
events. The Chancellor approached the Admiral and asked him to give him some
time.
- We need
to discuss something, Admiral. Let's take a little walk and talk - suggested
the Chancellor. The Admiral nodded in approval.
Slowly, they walked through the territory of
a huge ship, talking quietly to each other. For 5 thousand years of travel,
nothing has changed in the atmosphere on the ship. Lighting changed day to
night, maintaining the daily routine, comfortable temperature, regularity and
stability in everything.
- I won’t
take much of your time, and we won’t be able to get lost in the nooks and
crannies of the ship! the Chancellor joked.
-Of course,
we studied the whole ship as a child! The Admiral replied.
The Admiral was clearly inspired by the
upcoming events! Still would! He thought that at last the great moment for
which they had been preparing all their lives had come. To him, and 4 other
selected children, knowledge about the Clean Slate project was revealed. They
are the only ones from all the inhabitants of the ship who have taken the
positions of members of the Council of Elders, caught this moment in their
lives! History was made here and now! The author of the secret project Blank
Slate was Mandalore the Ultimate himself. By his order, in secret from
everyone, this huge ark ship was created, which was called the Empress. A
perfect, completely autonomous space system, assembled from 6 Kandosii-type
dreadnaughts, which were connected together in the form of a hexagon, was a
kind of artificial planet created to save the race of true Mandalorians - the
Taungs. The ship was minimally armed, because its main purpose was to create
complete autonomy for a long journey between galaxies and survival. Initially,
the ship's entire fleet consisted of 100 Basilisk war droids, 10 Jehavey'ir-type
assault ship, and 20 Shaadlar-type troopship. A ship of a closed type, in which
for thousands of years the life of the crew could not only be supported, but
also ideal conditions were created for the reproduction and preservation of all
living things. The space system Empress is a huge and ambitious project, which
turned out to be not only functional, but also very beautiful.
The chancellor at this time also reminisced.
He recalled an ancient legend that told of the first unsuccessful attempt to
fulfill the original Mission on the planet Xenu, in which, according to
records, 5 assault ships, 11 troopship and 73 basilisks were irretrievably
lost. The original Mission was a complete failure. After this failure, it was
not possible to return to the native Galaxy; there were no routes in
hyperspace. But the ancients knew what they were getting into. It was then that
the Elders decided to move at maximum speed towards the planet KS1307, which
the locals call Nau-ten. What's the name? - thought the Chancellor - What if
our Mission, like the original one, fails? What then? Shall we fly to another
planet? Yes, it would be better if they flew right away, everything is clear,
stable, balanced and even, this ship is, in fact, our home, entire generations
of our ancestors were born and died here, but we had such a fate ...
Walking thoughtfully through the intricate
corridors of the ship, they entered the Master's hall. It was a huge room with
high ceilings, the walls of which from top to bottom were occupied by shelves
and boxes under combination locks. There were tools on the shelves, and parts
were stored inside the boxes. In the center of the hall stood two dismantled
landing craft. Two teams of the Master's subordinates were undergoing another
training session on assembling and disassembling the ship for speed. Trainings
were held constantly in order to consolidate the skills. The Chancellor and the
Admiral passed through the Hall of the Master and through a line of corridors
entered the Hall of the Admiral. This hall housed training weapons and models
for improving combat skills. At that moment, the Admiral's subordinates were
training to disassemble and assemble weapons.
-Once we were
here every day too! the Chancellor said.
These
necessary skills were instilled in us from childhood. Let's go to the Source,
Chancellor, and we'll talk calmly there! The Admiral replied.
Walking, they came to the center of the ship,
called the Spring. A huge container, which was a spherical reservoir of water,
was located in the center of the hexagon, in the form of which the Empress was
designed. They approached the portholes, through which a stunning view opened
up. The giant cistern of the Spring was filled with transparent ice, and in the
center there was water in which fish swam and various algae grew. The
breathtaking sight that opened before them through the huge central portholes
was a closed water system, like a giant aquarium.
The source was filled with ice from the rivers of the planet Naos, in whose orbit the Empress was built. The tank was specially filled with ice in order to prevent the shell from breaking when the water freezes in outer space. The source was not only a supply of water, but also performed an important function - in its center there was a water nuclear reactor that provided energy and oxygen to the entire ship. Gradually, in the center of the Source, the ice turned into water. It turned out that along with the ice, different types of fish and algae were accidentally brought into the Spring, which thawed and created their own ecosystem.
For
example, fish species such as Naos sharptooth and Bloat eel thrived in the
Spring. The sharptooth was considered a delicacy throughout the old galaxy, and
the Bloat eel was terribly poisonous and required special preparation. Cooking
pufferfish for a fraction of a second more or less made this fish a deadly
poisonous delicacy for which there was no antidote. But the Priest's
subordinates learned this too. Plants and river flora developed in the
reservoir. In fact, it was an enclosed sea with its own gravity and ecosystem.
Both algae and fish were eaten by the inhabitants of the ship.
- Yes, we
lived a measured life. Training, training, now it seems that this is in the
past, the Chancellor said thoughtfully.
We've been
waiting for this moment all our lives! This is our main mission! Generations of
our ancestors only dreamed about it, not living up to this moment! And we have
such a chance, we will make history! the Admiral said enthusiastically.
- We lived
stably, and now there is one unknown ahead! Where are we going to get them this
bridge? I have all the resources calculated! The number of crew, water, food,
air is controlled! Everything counts! I don't have the resources to build this
bridge, we have a closed system! The Chancellor replied.
- We need
to come up with something! It is very important! the Admiral said.
- Yes, I
know ... But where to get something that is not? Do not disassemble the casing?
The 3 km bridge is no joke! Listen, what if we use multiple landing craft?
Subordinate Masters will then be able to assemble them, by cubes, like a
designer in childhood .. - asked the Chancellor.
- Risky!
The flagship will remain practically defenseless, we will lose the fleet - the
Admiral replied.
- You
yourself reported that according to the data received, in the strait that
separates the continents on this planet, there are some terrible creatures. And
if suddenly they start attacking us, then we will be able to use laser guns as
well - the Chancellor said thoughtfully.
- And if we
lose several ships or all at once? This will be a complete failure! The Admiral
hesitated.
- You same
was on such enthusiasm! This is what we have all been waiting for! Maybe worth
the risk? Moreover, there are simply no other resources for such a large-scale
construction, the Chancellor replied.
Yes, I have
been waiting for this for a very long time. You are right! It's worth the risk!
We will provide cover with the Basilisks and arrange for a safe landing,” the
Admiral agreed.
- Then I
will immediately give the order to start dismantling ships and building a
bridge! I will need terrain maps to design this bridge. I plan to use engines,
and then we can lower and raise the bridge. It will be not only a crossing, but
also a defensive landing ship, based on our 5! replied the Chancellor.
Decided! Such is the way! Shaking hands with each other, they heard the voice of the Viceroy in their helmets, saying one word...
During the described events, in the Hall of
the Council of Elders, after the door closed in front of the Viceroy, the
following happened.
GAZE was silent, and the Viceroy went to the
windows in the Hall of Elders and looked at such a distant and close planet
Nau-Ten. “What is waiting for us there?” - thought the Viceroy. He was worried,
although he tried not to show it. The silence dragged on, and the Viceroy
realized that GAZE was once again analyzing the incoming and outgoing
information from the planet. Something was clearly not right.
GAZE
clearly learned something new, his long silence spoke for itself. This unnerved
the Viceroy. Minutes turned into hours of waiting. Finally, the voice of GAZE
sounded, he was completely different alone with the Viceroy:
“Vicar, I
inform you that today’s meeting of the Council of Elders will be classified,
regardless of the success or failure of the Path you have chosen! All 5 Elders
- Chancellor, Priest, Admiral, Master and you, Viceroy - will represent our
interests and try to establish contact with representatives of the planet
Nau-ten! With luck, you have a Chance to get rid of your Burden! If something
goes wrong, if one of you or the crew members dies, in no case should you even
let the local natives get close to the corpses! Again! Aborigines must not
touch the corpses of the crew under any circumstances! To prevent this, I allow
you to use any weapon and destroy the source of the threat! Know if something
goes wrong, your shift is ready! If you fail, new Elders will take your places,
but they will not have access to this information! What was discussed at this
council should be known only to those who attended it! Bring it to all the
elders: whoever breaks the vow of silence will be instantly destroyed! I hear and
see you! Always! ANYTIME!"
GAZE fell silent and returned to its normal
state, the doors of the Hall of Elders immediately opened. The Viceroy left the
Hall thoughtfully, on the move switching the communication system to an
encrypted channel available only to members of the Council, and said:
"OMERTA!" This code word for a vow of silence did not bode well for
those who heard it.
