The Void was cold, stars shining as the dull actions of the GBE shipyard around the outer rim world of Vulcan go underway, ships undergoing boring repairs and refits, as nothing seemed to happen. Meanwhile, back at Neu-Paupa-Neu-Guinea, Activity Stirs.. A Fleet builds, led by a singular Vigilance-Class Battleship, named the "IDS Grand Opening", with various other ships arriving from Gelos Mal. Imperator Ezekiel Opens a communication line from his room on Taros, heading straight for GSR High Command...
//The Infinite Dominion Top-Secret Communications line//
"Greetings, Friends in the GSR. The Time has come. Our assault on the GBE will begin soon. Meet us at the system of Neu-Paupa-Neu-Guinea with a warfleet and freighters full of food and supplies. You should remember the plan. As soon as you arrive, we will engage hyperspace. We will arrive at the shipyard before you. We aim to take out the shipyard and hopefully occupy the world...
//Communications Line Cut//
The Fleet Gathers up its ships, the last few arriving and forming up on the battleship. Gunners anxiously await the battle to come, as the captain of The Grand Opening gives a speech to his bridge crew.
Captain Alendros Vox:
"This day marks a new beginning for our dominion! A new age for the entire galaxy! We will march into British space and destroy them with fire and brimstone! Nothing is holding us back now, brothers, and sisters! The New Dawn is Upon us! We are the Old Blood! We are the Shepards of Fire! For the Dominion! For the Dual Imperators! FOR THE OLD BLOOD!"
The Bridge Erupts with cheers and hollers as the crew, imbued with new hope and vigilance for this day prepare for the fight to come. Across the warfleet, nicknamed the "Latchkey" Fleet, other captains give speeches and other forms of inspiration. Once the GSR Arrive, the hyperdrives of the fleet kick in and shoot the ships into the stars.
Cpt. Vox:
"All who stand in the way of the old blood, will be crushed beneath our boots like the insects they are! On the blood of our brothers and sisters, we march onwards! To arms! The Union of Judgement shall know our names forevermore! STAND PROUD, AND FIGHT HARD!"
He turns to his command console and takes a deep breath...
Shipboard AI 'Ooros':
Exiting Hyperspace in E.T.A. 10 Seconds
The Ships thud out of hyperspace, as they look onwards at the British World, taking no hesitation before...
WHOOM
The Ships shudder and shake as an opening volley of spinal weapons shoot towards the Brits, aiming for the shipyard and any warships docked with it. The Dominion Fleet Holds a total of 30 ships including the battleship, as well as a small reinforcement fleet being called in, Fleet Theta, led by Vice Admiral Anastasia. The Secondary Batteries of the ships open up at orbital defenses and British ships.
The 3 Hierophant class carriers begin launching squadrons of Wyverns and Silverhawks, as well as Syntax Drones being launched from the 3 smaller harvest-class carriers. Spinal Railguns and Particle beams reach out through the stars as missiles launch out en-masse. This is only the beginning of the war that will decide the fate of the galaxy and those who sit at the top. This is... a Traitor's Requiem.
Back on Taros
In Ezekiel's Office, he watches the battle, shown to him by video feed of the battle. He speaks to himself..
"This is everything I have worked for. This is a new dawn for the galaxy. I may only hope that it goes to plan."
He sips his drink and sighs heavily. It's all or nothing. Meanwhile the defenses of Gelos Mal remain at high alert, prepared for anything the Union might throw their way in retaliation...
Here goes... everything.
Music:
For the first part (gathering the fleet)
For the second part (Beginning of the battle)
