Terket
Whilst the broadcast was still running, a secondary transmission was sent by some of the patrolling ships...
/Transmission Start/
Look for a free area which does not block any of the hyperlanes and keep a certain security distance to other present groups, that is all you need to watch out for, note that all conflicts in the vicinity of the fleet will be punished.
/Transmission End/

...the broadcast continued and the woman nodded a few times, each time when hearing one of the questions, turning towards Captain Fang he asked his, there was a short pause once all questions had been asked, then she began to answer, the first one to get his asnwers was the Adjucator:
"I will not bore you with any numbers of our history here as there are other tasks at hand, I can however give you a quick summary of our history.
A long time ago, the Bloodcult arrived in this Galaxy, whilst it was initially peaceful, many factions were scared of it and it´s ships and the powers their Warlords had, soon after their arrival the 'Keepers of Light' were formed, funded by the Adonian Empire a faction long forgotten, the Keepers attacked the Cult with several allies but ultimately fell to it´s power, luckily for us, they left the Keepers alive, even though they were driven out fo their original territory which was taken over by one of the Cults allies.
There were several of these... rather zealous undertakings until the original Keepers eventually fell and broke apart.
There was a long period of silence in which we, the 'Keeper Descendants' formed from one of the splinterfactions which were left, rules were made to prevent the mistakes of our ancestors, recruits were gathered uniting under the cause we had followed and now we are here as the 'Keeper Descendants' as you see them before you. We will provide data and origin of Avathurn as far as we know it once the initial questions are answered. You can still decide then and ask more questions."
She closed her eyes for a brief moment and paused then she continued, this time directed at the Dreadnought from the Crimson republic, whoever may be speaking on it´s behalf...
"I´m afraid I will not be telling you anything about our technology and that all in depth information that you sent us will be kept confidential, but I can tell you that we are sufficiently equipped to fight most threats presented to us, including precursors, we cannot 'prevent' backstabbing, as we have no influence on the participating parties, however all conflict on the battlefield between the participants of the operations will be punished severly, in what manner and form will not be revealed yet. I hope that answers your question sufficiently."
She paused another time, nodding towards one of the guards and then continued, this tiem answering Captain fangs question, who was present in the room.
"Avathurn is a threat that might not find you today or tomorrow, it may in fact never find you, however wherever it shows up it causes a tremendous amount of destruction, it attacks anything, from civilian transporters to military detachments, to ecumenopoli and fortress worlds, even rogue rockplanets will be bombarded relentlessly by it, on sight, without questions or remorse and most factions and civil sectors are simply not equipped to deal with a threat like him. The fleet you see here may or may not be enough to take him down on it´s own, however the issue is that Avathurn is fast and almost entirely unpredictable, therefor we have to spread our resources to provide a sufficient amount of coverage and maintain a certain minimum of ships within most key locations so we can react quickly to all distress calls and clues. If things go as planned, there will be at least a hundred, or up to threehundred, Keeper ships present at each encounter, as we will be gathering the intel on his position you do not need this amount of ships, however it is advised to keep your shipcount below threehundred, simply to maintain the mobility of your fleet, the number does not include fighter and drone craft and there´s a reason for that, however that will be explained in the presentation."
She nodded apparently satisfied with her own answer, the next sentence was directed at everyone again:
"Any more questions before we present the gathered data about our target?"
