Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:Aboard The Victor I Orbital Space Station, Imperial Admiral Klaus Rutherford answers his emergency line, "I want the entire station at full battle readiness. All men to their posts. Send word to Imperopolis immediately. Signal the fleet to form a defensive perimeter around the station."
*Victor I is the sole orbital station in the system of Maximus Victor consisting of one planet and moon. Victor I serves as the first phase of Victorian expansion off planet. The station is protected by a relatively small defense fleet consisting of 3 capital ships and accompanying fighters. Alarms sound as the militaristic civilization hails the approaching ship with strict urgency.*
"Unidentified alien vessel. You are entering territory of The Empire of Maximus Victor Reborn. Establish communications and cease and desist your current courses or we will be forced to treat you as hostile."
*Admiral Rutherford, wiped the sweat from his brow as he looked at the screens showing foreign alien ships. It would be untrue to say that he had never been in a dangerous situation. However, he was confident that with Maximus Victor's recent lack of contact with other civilizations there were more to these strangely shaped vessels then he cared to test. As he awaited word from the Emperor, he knew he would have no option but to fire if pushed. While he was confident they couldn't win an engagement, he was equally sure that survival would be more harshly punished by the Emperor than death.*

Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:"Admiral?"
"What is it now, Schumer?"
"The Black Hand has convened and is demanding you brief them on the situation."
"Connect them immediately!"
*Nervously adjusting his uniform the screen displays the throne room in Imperopolis. The High Throne currently vacant, 'What a relief, thought Rutherford,' however not far from the last of the steps ascending to the Emperor's throne sat a solid black marble table with five seats. Two on each side and one facing away from him. The Listener was the only member of the Black Hand who could look at the Emperor during their sessions. The meetings had become very ritualized in a very short amount of time. Speakers Caius, Albert, Victoria, and Reman stared at him from underneath their ceremonial wear.*
"What is the situation, Admiral?"
*Admiral Rutherford couldn't help but feel flustered as the entire Black Hand watched him with growing impatience and simultaneously his communication officer informed him of the response. He almost didn't believe what he was seeing when he glared at the non-human lifeform speaking to him. While Victorians were not inherently intolerant, he couldn't deny that his first encounter with a non-human being gave him chills. And as for the Black Hand...*
"Admiral, are you under the impression that the Black Hand operates on your time schedule? You are to establish communication with these trespassers and to update us by the time the Listener arrives." *Transmission ended*
*'Oh great,' thought Rutherford, the only thing that he disliked more than having the attention of the Black Hand, was being their topic of discussion behind closed doors. 'I'll need to salvage this situation some how...'*
*Turning his attention to the outside communication.*
"I apologize, Captain. You'll forgive our surprise, there has not been an incursion into our system by a fleet of this...particular makeup in any records I am familiar with. My superiors extend to me the right to offer a portion of your command crew passage to this station where we may discuss in greater detail your purpose and what our nations may potentially offer one another. I am sending you the appropriate docking information now."
*With one problem escalading Rutherford proceeded to turn his attention back to the Black Hand. If he could handle the situation himself then perhaps...*
"It is done then. Speaker Caius will be docking shortly to meet with these representatives." *End transmission*
"Dammit..."

Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:*Admiral Rutherford stood in the docking bay well before docking procedures initiated. He wanted to make a good first impression, certainly let these aliens know that punctuality and courtesy were extended by his nation. He assembled his chief officers and several lines of marines to form an appropriate welcoming party. Speaker Caius arrived much more discreetly and flat out refused to wait in the docking bay. He had already taken to one of the many conference rooms and was prepared to be the one waiting.*
"Alright men! When the ambassadors arrive you are to show them every courtesy. I want NONE of you to react in any way to any foreign customs, looks, scents, expressions...or mannerisms you might be unfamiliar with. We are making history today gentlemen, embarrassment will be punished."
*It wasn't customary for Rutherford to threaten his men, his reputation was built off the opposite. He couldn't deny he was unprepared for today's events however, how much more his men weren't he could only guess.*

Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:*Admiral Rutherford crisply shook the extended hand.*
"On behalf of the Black Hand I am honored to welcome you to Orbital Station Victor I. Please follow me to meet with Speaker Caius."
*Briskly exiting the docking bay, Admiral Rutherford led the individuals to a lift which took them up to the highest point of the station. Along the way, Admiral Rutherford made light conversation with the Captain and Krieg.*
"The Black Hand operates as the Emperor's advisory council. They convene to discuss matters of state and present the information to the Emperor. There are four Speakers and one Listener. Each Speaker operates with equal authority and you may trust they represent the Emperor's personal opinions and interests. There are no particular customs you need observe, and the only title they go by is Speaker. Speaker Caius is the oldest member of the Black Hand. He's a very traditional man, but he's nothing if not convinced the universe is something to be embraced not ignored. Ah, here we are."
*Walking into the room first he abruptly kneels before the Speaker who stands behind his chair at a long table. The room itself is spacious and walled in transparent material giving a very realistic feeling of being in space itself. Speaker Caius stands dressed not in his ritual robes, but in a simple black suit. Admiral Rutherford couldn't quite reconcile the difference in appearance from about an hour prior. This warmly smiling elderly man seemed to be the opposite of the intimidating figure transmitting earlier. Speaker Caius moves to shake the hands of the Captain.*
"Captain, welcome to Victor I. I am Caius of the Empire of Maximus Victor Reborn, Speaker of the Black Hand. In the name of His Imperial Majesty, Emperor Maximus Victor, first of his name, I welcome you. You must forgive any surprise you've been treated with, knowledge of non-human species is not common and other civilizations are tracked only by the government. We are a civilization rebuilding. However, let me not burden you with such difficulties, this is your support staff?"

Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:"Please sit. Admiral you may sit at my right here. Captain, please sit your men wherever. I suppose you must have questions, what is your nation's protocol when coming into contact with other sentient beings? Your ships appear quite large and I am venturing to assume that this fleet is a colonization effort. I will assume then that your people are not aware of the Empire?"

Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:"Well it's an oversight I'm glad did not lead to conflict. We are a small, but growing nation. The planet is unified under one government headed by the Emperor in our capital of Imperopolis. I confess we do not have any formal relations with another civilization. We are a private people, who have not accessed much of the universe."

Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:*Speaker Caius looked at the door as several slaves came in offering goblets and glasses of Victorian wine.*
"Ah, Captain may I offer you something fine to drink? We also have water as an alternative."
*Filling his own goblet, he raises it saying,*
"Captain, your health! Excellent, aged to perfection. Victorian grapes thrive in the coldest of conditions, exquisite really for those who appreciate the taste. Now Captain, I must say I fear that there are many things about each of our civilizations we would find it difficult to understand. Our people have little knowledge of one another and little experience. Might I suggest some common ground? We are not looking for a conflict with one another. I think that this takes primacy. I will assume that your exploratory fleet will not attempt to establish a presence in our system. Perhaps there is a way we could negotiate the construction of an outpost somewhere in system? As the only civilization originating here, I am curious, do you intend to try to stay?"

Maximus Victor Reborn wrote:*Speaker Caius looked grave, but not unfriendly. His words were determined and expressed his deep concern for the preservation of their way of life.*
"We have never known another way than ours. Perhaps to you we seem primitive. We are not the most experienced of nations, and we know little beyond the dark portion of our universe. With the authority of His Imperial Majesty, I am encouraged to offer you a place in our system. There are several gas giants, and as I'm sure you can appraise we are far from being capable of utilizing those resources. If you were to establish a station orbiting one of these, the Emperor would like to be included on facility placements and the extent of your presence. While he does not know if you are authorized to facilitate an alliance, or if that would even be best at this point, perhaps a more measured approach would be considered? We are not yet ready for an influx of different peoples to bombard our system, at least not yet. Is it possible that perhaps you would agree to open trade relations, regulated from your facility you will construct. We will come to you, and trade on your ground of course at a negotiated rate. However, will you help us keep our section of the galaxy preserved from outside interference as we slowly open to the larger galaxy through our relations with you?"

"Abominable filth...we cannot suffer such barbarism to exist in our system. They cannot be allowed any quarter. Admiral, prepare my shuttle, defend this system. Send word to Imperopolis. I am going to the surface, I must speak with the rest of the Black Hand. Captain, if you'll excuse me."
*Admiral Rutherford quickly issues orders to the docking bay through his private comms device and summons a security detachment to take accompany the Speaker.*
"Captain, may I assume we are together in this? Will you be attempting to return to your ship, I am no longer confident that the way is clear. I could most certainly use your assistance up at command if you have experience with these...abominations."

"Yes Admiral?"
"Captain we are unsure as to the effectiveness of our weaponry against the alien vessels. I want you to move into range and release your modified nuclear armaments."
"Admiral, are you worried about the potential damage to our ships, or the allied vessels? This experimental augmenting of nuclear weapons could also have destructive consequences to the planet itself if..."
"That is why you are going to drive right into the heart of their forces Captain. Arm the nukes. Good sailing."
