Spared? SPARED? Do not threaten us. We were in search of an ally during a time of war.

A Ship Warps in

    A transmission is sent from the planetary administration.

    //Transmission Start//
    Proceed to a dockyard immediately and we will send over a negotiator, refuse and we will be forced to engage the fleet. If you do indeed seek an ally there are better methods of going about it than probing any would-be allies territory.
    //Transmission End//

    (What size is the ship btw? Is it 1:1 or what?)

      Soundbust11 (~900 Meters. It's a Victory IV Star Destroyer. An Upgraded and modified Victory III)

      Very Well

      The Ship Makes its way to a Dockyard, then Docking. The Negotiator is met by a Squad of Elite Stormtroopers.
      "We will Be your personal escort to the Captain's office."

        Brank
        The port the SD was guided into was in fact designated for frigates. A monstrous 10km beast of a ship is docked next to them. The location clearly intentional to display the Pact's military power.

        Negotiator: That won't be necessary, I have my own guards.
        He does indeed. 5 guards trail him both on his left and right. The stormtroopers are dismissed save one to act as a guide.

          Soundbust11 They make it to a room, the door is opened, inside is a Singular man, the captain. The Guards are asked to wait outside.

          "Welcome. Could I get your Name?"

            Brank
            The negotiator looks around his late 30s, young for a Vaiaelon. A light grey pelt and a small cut on his ear.

            My name is Kotaii, and you may refer to me as such. Just so you are aware, your ship and her crew are under heavy surveillance. You'll understand the precaution as it's not every day we get a warship entering our territory uninvited.

              Soundbust11 "I Understand. My name is Captain Kadvir. You may call me Kadvir. Please, Do take a seat."
              He Points at a Chair in-front of his desk.

              "I work for TIE, Thrawn's Infinite Empire. We are currently looking for allies to help us, as we are in the middle of a war."

                Brank
                (What are you doing, Dave?)

                He takes a seat. He's rather unused to foreign chairs, so his tail just droops to the side unceremoniously.
                So I've been told. Your empire has quite the reutation behind it, many tales of great conquests, so for you to be asking for help in a war... well, it must be a tough enemy and a half! He leans forward in his chair. So who, paths be kind, are you fighting?

                Soundbust11 (?)

                "We are fighting the GSR. over a decade ago they were our allies. We joined a group opposed to the "Galactic Order" they were in. So we fought them. We were forced out of our territory back to our home galaxy once again, and have now returned for revenge. They have Increased their strength has increased. so we are searching for help, as they themselves have allies, even though the SA Had Collapsed. Now, I have spoken. Would you mind speaking of the history of your Species?"

                  Brank
                  ("So yeah we're fucking declaring war on the Space Nazis, now why you got a tail?")

                  A slow smile spreads across Kotaii's face. He glances around a bit to check for bugs.
                  This is currently confidential information, but we've been making preparations against them ourselves... Perhaps we should discuss details on the station? No offence to you or your crew, but I'd feel safer discussing in a secured room. There are also instruments for planning there.

                  As for my people's history... I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to discuss that until my superiors deem you trustworthy enough.

                    Soundbust11 He Cracks a Smile
                    "Alright. I may need to call a Higherup on a Holo-communicator when in there, if possible."

                      Brank
                      Kotaii leads Hal through the station towards a more central area. The gravity is far higher than on his own ship and he requires an aide to simply walk. As they walk, Kadvir receives some dirty looks and rude gestures from station staff and civilians.

                      Ignore them, they just aren't used to seeing xenos and not shooting them, there are still many who remember the aftermath of the old wars...

                      They eventually reach a room with a large display of some kind in the center. The heavy-duty door slowly thuds shut behind them.

                        Soundbust11
                        "Alright, Now, you spoke of plans against The GSR, Yes? Hold on, let me do something."

                        He pulls out a Flat device with a blue glow in the center, he presses a button, and after a few seconds, a Hologram Comes up.

                        Yes, Captain Kadvir?

                        "Admiral, I do Believe our search for an ally has been Successful, we found a Faction who will prove to be great allies if they so choose to align with us. I shall let you speak to them."

                        The Captain looks for a seat after setting the holo-projector down.

                        So. My name Is Admiral Ezekiel. You may call me Ezekiel. Now, onto The possibility of an Alliance.

                          Brank
                          Kotaii performs a shallow bow in the 'presence' of a superior.
                          As you wish.
                          He presses a few buttons on the underside of the large display, a detailed 3D holo-map of GSR territory appears in the air.

                          For the record, anything you view here today is strictly confidential, only to be reported to superiors should you deem it necessary...

                          For months our forces have been getting into position and tracking GSR movements. More button pressing. The map changes to display VSA fleet positions nearby to the territory. We have determined that their defences are weaker in these areas. Some systems in the GSR territory are highlighted. Naturally we chose the weak spot furthest from any reinforcements for our staging area, though your co-operation may change things...

                          My superiors have had a contingency plan should another nation enter a war with them, simply being to invade from the opposite side of their frontlines, take them in a pincer. The map changes again, the VSA fleets disappearing, now only displaying GSR space. With you on our side, a grander stratagem is surely possible. So, we're open to suggestions.

                            Soundbust11
                            Hmm... The GSR is Completely Surrounded by Strong Fortress worlds, and the weakest borders an Ally of theirs, The Kel-shir. I Say we conquer Some Kel-shir territory, Then attack the GSR From All sides. Though if possible, we could negotiate with the Kel-Shir to allow us through their borders.

                              Brank
                              We'd rather not start any unnecessary wars while simply making preparations for another. Diplomacy seems the best option here.

                                Soundbust11 Yes. Another Option is To Attack One Spot with Everything we have, while you Yourself Send As Much Of your Navy as You can to One of the Spots that has been left Partially Undefended, Then We Rip Through the Innards of GSR Space.

                                  Brank
                                  That plan certainly is a lot simpler, though a lot more can go wrong... suggest we leave that as a plan B, in the event that the Kel-shir are unwilling to assist us.

                                  As they discuss, the map changes accordingly with the plans put forward, suggesting force movements and further strategies. It's clearly the work of an AI of some description, as no organic mind could come up with and display such data in real time.

                                    Soundbust11
                                    Very Well. SO It is Decided. We will Ally and Defeat the GSR in the times ahead. Good-luck.
                                    The Call Ends.
                                    "I Am Ready to take my Leave. I nned to get back to my ship. Goodbye."
                                    He Stands, Preparing to get back to his ship.

                                      Brank
                                      One last thing; there's a small chance that my superiors will disregard this stratagem altogether, dismissing it as xeno trickery. It's unlikely as they were waiting for an opportunity like this, but still a possibility. The final call isn't mine to make after all. Kotaii gets up and offers his hand. May your path bring you luck in the Kel-Shir negotiations.
