Kell reclined in the seat, looking back at Jeremy"Can't say I'm surprised though, I remember I didn't get along with the commies all that well anyway. Can't say I'm sorry either. Sorry to hear about the rank, and a smart idea with the family. Always is best to keep them out of the firing line" Kell replied
Sombrero nodded briefly and took a seat on the chair he was holding his hand on. As he sat down, he looked around before turning his eyes back on the man infront of him.
"Well...yeah. I need something to get distracted I guess....but not too much of course...."
Kate listened to Synk's story. It was a strange one she thought.
"Okay. I guess parallel universes can be full of weird things. Give me some more infos about this... Triumvirate. Do you have an idea of what they actually were ? Were they human or different ? From Sirius ? I think it's better if we have a basic idea of who they are before you explain how things "radically changed" afterwards."
Kell looked up at the newcomer, recognizing him as longtime comrade Michal Golanksi"Just Kell now Michal, I left "commodore" Tainer behind on the Isis when I retired" Kell paused briefly, collecting himself after the surprise of his former assistant director showing up"Whats new with you?"Kell finished
As he welcomed his old friend answered. 'As you left, naturaly I have became leader of Wedjat. But my career had not stopped at that particular position... I took command of the Order as it's leader. Unexpected isn't it? Your trainee gets to the top.'
"That first bit of information I knew, given I appointed you my successor, and I'm not surprised at all as to you being the Order head now Michal, always knew you were capable, had quite a lot of potential. I am pleased though"Kell finished, continuing to glance back at the newcomer
Lennox stepped into the large room, back from outside. Rubbing his forehead, he slowly walked towards a free place to stand, just for resting some moments. Taking a deep breath, he then walked over to a wall to lean against it, le. For now Johan didn't feel like having more visions but it was to see, he was somehow stressed a lot. He then walked over to the party with Hunter, Golanski and the newcomer, nodding briefly.
"Hello there....mind if I join here?"
Speaking in a bit lower tone, trying to ignore his through his head coursing thoughts, he could barely stand stable but managed it to grab something to hold on.
Golanski nodded to Lennox. 'Feel free to join us. Kell Tainer, my old commanding officer.' He turned at Tainer. 'We still can use someone like you. I have tried training agents myself in meantime, I think I can consider Lennox here as one. But it's not always that good, another one got criticaly injured.'
Dave continued to tell miss Miller about the incident...
"After we made contact with them, by our surprise they were humans. But their level of technology was amazing. My Osiris warship was a small frigate compared to their flagships or even with the smallest battleship. Sirius was divided into 3 grand factions. The Orion Consortium, The Tau Alliance, and The Triumvirate of Pegasus. These groups were mainly formed of humans, but their leaders were unknown to me, these 3 groups were in link with some sort of federation organization, that was formed of various alien entities around our galaxy. But that federation collapsed decades ago when the Vyrr war started, so the only powers in the galaxy remained these 3 groups. As Sirius being a strategical resource star cluster, the 3 groups battled 30 years ago, in a war that was later known as "The Core Wars". The Triumvirate was a military organization and had the role to ensure protection and peace throughout the galaxy, as some sort of security op. I worked for the Triumvirate. I rise into their ranks, promoted to use a Legendary Class Dreadnought and hunted for the Vyrr threat. I was there for .... 20 years ! *looked with a dark figure at miss Miller* You need to see this..."
He then took out from his hand attached device a small round chip at the size of a coin. He put it on the table, and then an amazingly detailed galactic holographic map appeared filling almost the entire room.
"This is the galaxy and there *showed to the various blue dots around the map* were the main planets of the Triumvirate."
Then the map began to show different strategic direction and battle groups around the entire galaxy, with high-detail images and recorded feedback directly from the battlefield.
"The Core Wars period..."
The map changed again and presented again various tactical directions, dots representing Triumvirate, Orion and Tau fleets against the Vyrr that were coming from outside the galaxy, and other inner-galactic coordination. Recorded feedback from the contact with the Vyrr was presented, Dave looked with a tragic look and it was seen how small sheds of tears fell on his cheeks, records of battles, space catastrophes made by the Vyrr to neutralize the human forces. And in the end...
"They manage to did it *looking to miss Miller*, the bastards managed to destabilize the Galaxy Core. What you see on the map were the 3 belts, that were created by some unknown ancient races to stabilize the galactic core or viceversa. The Vyrr used some highly accelerated neutrino-antimatter weaponry to create space-time and gravitational destabilization... *the map showed the Pegasus arm and several others thorn apart from the original shape of the galaxy* Our last hope was the Pegasus' belt, but the Triumvirate failed... "
He waited and continued...
"My new looks, the implants, the robotic parts of me, are signs of hard battles I've been through, with them enhancing my body and giving me another chance to see the stars another day..."
