Samantha Ross returned the gaze with a puzzled expression. She paused, to drag up what she recalled of The Alliance-Coalition War.

"It is presumed that the Coalition, having pushed the Alliance forces to a small dwarf planet at the edge of the Sol system, Pluto, wasn't it? would have made their final attack. It is known that the sleeper ships themselves only just escaped the opposing fleet. At the time, the last elements of the Alliance had lost most of it's access to resources and production capacity.Their ability to resist was severely diminished, and it is unlikely they would have been able to fight for much longer. The Coalition was known to be quite inhuman in the treatment of conquered ..." She stopped, having almost forgotten who she was speaking to.

She glanced away from the Lieutenants' uncomfortable gaze before returning. She frowned slightly before adding; "It has always been known that the Coalition would have won the war. We would consider Sol, and its planets would now likely be under Coalition control."


Doctor Marcus Owens had listened to Ross speak, and was now watching Doyle intently, though the same was true of the other staff within earshot.
