Previous ChapterNext ChapterLocation: 'Draconequus Continuum'.
Universe 13 (owned by Lord Discord)
current Sector: 5/10
(Planet and raw mass collection).
Hiveship Dreadnought 'Wiege des Lebens'. Unshackeld A.I. Core Matrix Mother.
Currently in the atmosphere of Equus.
ETA to arrive in the Abesinian Kingdom Pandora unknown.:
Mother Matrix to the Crew and the Ambassador of Abesinia Fluffels:
"My paint job should help our future hosts to spot me early. I am so pink that noone should suggest im looking anything but pretty and peaceful despite all my weapons...
Anyway the arrival time is uncertain since we are making a mapping of the planet first, before we arrive. It will be a rough navigation map, but should us help to find Fluffels home.
I will inform you all once we arrive, stand ready to deploy via air drop. I doubt that i can land on a unstable pile of sand."
Fluffels hoped that noone would do anything stupid, he remembered the last time a Dragon
Colossus fly over the capital.
A dragon that just wanted some water and directions towards the Pony land Equestria, to ask if he could trade in his over abandonment of Gems for magic rich meat.
He was meet with the army of their Queendom and to everycat luck, every being keep their cool.
The dragon seem to be under the impression that a parade had been in the working and thankfully never got the motion that the huge amount of soldiers actually had planned to fight it to the bitter end. That could have resulted in ten of thousands of lost lives...
While their Queendom was expected to see Fluffels return with Lord Discords chosen help that was a closely keep secret, did noone expected it to take that many years for him and their new allies to arrive. One could only hope they didn't come at a bad time...
Queen of the Abesinian 'Katia Managan' had just received a report that the siege of the Yeti army and their massiv mercenarys militia had breached the outer defense of the Capitol and was swarming their outer ring defenses.
If this continued would they lose the capitol City Pandora within a week and the Storm King leader of the Yeti race would enslave them all.
Her mate and King of the Abesinian Queendom was currently doing his best to keep the moral of the troops from falling to mutch.
They all know that only a miracle could save them, for example the Hypogriffons or the Ponies coming to their aid, but so far no luck.
A hour ago did a huge pink object belived to be a dragon fly near their capitol, but left as swiftly as it had come. For a moment had Queen Katia the hoped that a opportunity driven Dragon had come to their aid to save them for a redicules rate of ransom for his Nation saving services.
The Yetis even fleed the Capitol for some time.
While it only saved the Abesinian defense forces some time and ground, did they at least used the distraction to retrieve their wounded and salvage as mutch equicment and food as they managed.
When the invasion forces returned did they at least did so subdued, due to uncertainty.
A full grown Dragon could have decimated them by the thousands if not ten of thousands.
The Abesinian King had of course lied his tail off that their reinforcements had arrived and was cutting of their supply lines way back in the rear, but this bluff would probably not hold longer than one or two days.
At least their Son Fluffels was hopefully still alive somewhere and could flee once he spotted his race enslaved by the Yeti race. A bitter hope that at least he would be save from the merciless paws of the Yeti invaders.
The Hiveship had made one full round over the planet in a straight line and had rough ideas where the Zebra Kingdom and Abesinian Queendom had to be. When they consulted Ambassador Fluffels, did the Abesinian fluffball noticed that they already had passed rather near the Capitol of Abesinian named 'Pandora'.
With the provided information did the Hiveship 'Wiege des Lebens' prepared for their first meeting with the royal Family.
This would be undoubtedly a historical day to remember and writen down in everyone's history books.
The Yeti general besides his King had received from multible of their commander reports of a massive pink Dragon to fly over their armys.
Since the Storm King was not a fool and risk this victory to be turned into a costly defeat, did he told all his own troops to regroup and let the militia mercenarys continue the fight alone.
Further would he allow all his camps to be spread out so a dragon attack to be less efficiently be executed.
If a Dragon Colossus would aid the Abesinian, than the Storm King would retreat his own troops while leaving the mercenarys to burn.
When he would have to pay them in full once the City of Pandora was taken, would his national treasures be bleed nearly into oblivion if the Royal Castle vaults didn't hold a fat rat of loot in it.
But if a Dragon would save Pandora and burn at least 1/3 of their mercenarys troops to ashes, could he get out of paying them in full and have enough ressources plundered and slaves sold to Gem Fido to slowly retreat and have them 'recapture their Nation'.
They would be bleed out to hard as to counter invasion his lands.
And while his Yeti just have to shave themselves bold to survive in hot climates to fight in, did the Abesinian could never compensate for the cold climate of their home territory.
Harvesting other nations with wars, just to retrieve all their valuable ressources and make a mint in slaves was indeed how the Yeti had always operated under the Storm King.
This invasion even if it failed in its final phase, would keep the Yeti empire of the frozen lands afloat for at least a century.
If the mercenary militia would be perishing before they had to be payed their remaining awards, maybe even two centuries.
Total victory over Abesinian kind or retreat to their own territory would both end in the same.
The Storm King had successfully pulled his nation from economy collapse to a era of prosperity.
He had lost 3/10 of his total population do to the war's he started in Abesinian, Hypogriffon and Griffon nations, but he sure fixed their economic crisis, his overpopulation dilemma and his food shortages.
With him sending his older Yetis to die on the front as first, did he also avoided for at least two decades to care for his over aged mortal subjects.
This fools had agreed to die in battle rather than dying slowly to old age.
He had nourish the motion to die to aging as shameful very successfully.
In his nation only the once archiving great benefits for his Empire get the honor to be remembered with a tombstone and a life sized statue.
The Yetis fallen in battle had the honor of receiving a tombstone in their bodys size to remember them by.
Females dying during child birth were honored just like warriors. They after all fight through child birth to bring life to the world.
If the die to anything else? They died unremarkable and there for unremembered.
The fact that he never implemented a system to care for the old was one more reason why the older citizens hoped to die in glorious battle.
In war times the rich and the poor didn't existed in matters of food and alcoholic celebrations.
In war they all party hard and fight to the bitter end.
He had followed this ideology and tactic for his nation for thousands of years, it never left him wanting.
When ever his economy was tanking do to overpopulation of old citizens and his subjects getting the silly idea of peace with other races outside their trading, did he ruthlessly let his assassin do their work and prepared a war to decimated his old population and rebellion factions.
He would stay and see the end of this war, one way or another...
The crew of the Ship had prepared for their arrival in about 15 minutes over the capitol City of the Abesinian Queendom.
Once they arrive at the Castle would the Synths air drop with Ambassador Fluffy in Pandoras capitol and start establishing peaceful relationship with one of Equus leading races.
Once the Abesinian Queen 'Katia Managan' give them up to date information of all races would they decide how to continue.
For now would they steering away from the Pony Princessdom and probably establishing themself by trading their trash and waste exposure technology services as well access to health care that Fluffels had confirmed are millenia ahead of their own Queendoms.
Cheap high quality food, environmental friendly disposal of trash and health care that will be equally cheap given to everyone who ask for it, should make them very influential.
Once the Moon was finaly stabilized and their Mega-Colony was full established, would they scout out a place to build their own nation focused on trading cheap high quality food, health care for its visitors and all Nations would once they are willing to form a alliance received opportunitys to rid themself of organic and non organic trash in huge collection areas.
They only had to be very careful that noone managed to steal their technology.
Nanotechnology was a blessing for everyone as long they had access to its end products, but they could never be allowed to obtain it.
A civilian Nano assembler for the Synths, could be a military nano disassambler for another race...
The Hiveship finaly arrived at their destination. The hole Crew on bord with exception of the Captain get ready to jump to their future.
Ambassador Fluffels strapped to one of the bulky Synths, got ready to jump.
Once they where ready, they jumped close to one another in combat gear and gliders own strength into the area identified by Fluffels as the courtyard of the Royal Castle.
Many of them were rather giddy making first contact and they jumped with cheers towards their future allies and friends.
Once they landed did the Hivemind was filled with confusion. The Abesinian guard forces were not just on high alert do to the unannounced visit, but they had apperently somehow already prepared for a outright conflict with impressive oversized ballistic weapon emplacements aiming at them.
Despite the very aggressive welcome was this reaction anticipated and noone raised their weapons towards the Abesinian royal guards.
Smiling and softly waving hello with one hand did they changed the battle ready Abesinian soldiers into confused kitten that seem to be very confused what they had happening before them.
When Ambassador Fluffels moved infront of the Synths, did everycat started to cheer the return of their Prince.
Not half a hour later did the Queen of the Abesinian had her heir in a tight tear filled embrace.
Fluffels introduced the Synths as the allies that are supposed to fix their planets problems about enviromental climate decline and about the irregularities with the Moon over the last decade.
While Queen Katia welcome their new allies to their Queendom, did she informed the Synths about their dire situation.
Meanwhile did the Hiveship Dreadnought standed on save distance towards the capitol over Pandora and its presence alone seem to frightening the mercenarys to once more retreat from the City.
This time they would not return, since they had still the words from the Abesinian King in their minds about reinforcements cutting of their supply lines and coming for them next.
While the Yeti nations standing forces had already retreated, did they unexpectedly had their mercenary forces join them.
Since the campaign against the Abesinian would now end and the mercenary militia would forfeit their bonus on capturing the City of Pandora and take their already earned rewards for years of service on the Yeti side.
The Storm King was surprised that the conflict had ended so abruptly.
He would have to hire the Dragon to terminate the Abesinian former biggest bane, his over the year amassed mercenary militia.
Ideally he could reduce the mercenary army to ash before he had to pay them and give the Dragon merely half the gold, silver and gems that the mercenarys would receive from him after returning to his nations grounds.
The Storm King loved his loopholes. Who could blame him for the Abesinian counterattacks after his troops with a hired dragon?
He could not be accused of breach of contracts if the ones he never intended to pay in the first place fully, died before the contract was over and payment was due.
The Hiveship A.I. was very conserned about what she was hearing through the Hivemind connection to her children.
Abesinian had been at war for years and lost all City's and villages with exception of their last City, the capitol of Abesinia 'Pandora'.
Unfortunately did the Synths could not just jump in and save the nations of kittens in distress. Most fortunately did nothing preventing them from keeping that information from the Yeti forces. Why lie, when they could just stay silent about it.
The Hiveship A.I. would there for use her guns in their lowest setting to spread terror under the invasion forces. If enviromental fires around the military of the Yetis started to burning and push them away from the city of Pandora, than that would be nothing but bad luck for them.
Mother used her remote controlled 11 Empty Synths Bodys in storage to search out stragglers in the City and guide them peacefully out. The threat that they would force it if needed if the Yeti force stragglers don't comply was empty, but they didn't know it.
70 Synths on the ground and sitting relatively relaxed in the Castle courtyard made smalltalk with the Abesinian Queendom soldiers and Castle service workforce.
Quite a lot of useful common knowledge was collected that way.
The Captain of the Antaeus Operation was making his observations on the bridge of the Hiveship and already planned to repelling Yeti forces by renting out his Synths crew as observation and spy forces.
With their abilities rented to the Abesinian with borrowing equicment in form of armor fitted to their anatomy, could with their own primitive weaponry be fought.
Until they defeat the invasion forces.
Support via food, medical services to the Abesinian was never a problem.
High quality armor of borrowed nature should keep enough loopholes exploitation that the Abesinian would repelling the Yetis 'all on their own', without Synths joining the actual fight.
Later that day did the royal family of Fluffels thanked the Synths for their promised humanitarian support.
The Abesinian Queendom declared a year later the Synths as their official trading partner and a non aggression pact for the next 500 years.
The Queen of Abesinian made her son Fluffels the permanent Ambassador aid to the Synths.
Hes started not one month later to teach his learned languages. All three of them.
