Chapter I: Moonshot
Agarthians and Farians were well known for the military and their technologies alike but neither could compare with their audacity to do things that no one else would even try. That was when the Kaija started to emerge more frequently from the East Iryllian seas, they selected Auruum for their back up plan. Nestled far to the south on the peninsula of the south pole it was far enough away from the events in the north and spying eyes to the west to get moving without any interference. No one questioned the tankers that stopped briefly in Nouvel Acadie or the Freight planes routed via Free Tuks, not a single Iryllian batted an eye lid when wares were shifted while a Kaija attack was underway or when personnel slipped from their sights only noticed a few weeks after the fact. Few could explain where they went or what they were doing only that they were well funded and well resourced and where that caused concern, palms were greased.
Nestled towards the north of Auruum along the flats, miles from many populated areas, convoys began to merge. Even in Auruum people questioned why a military complex needed to be positioned so far away from anyone else, no one could fathom that pure profit wasn't an immediate factor but one thing they did notice was it had a bottomless pit as far as resources were concerned, as fast as they could be delivered they were requisitioned. Goblins, Farians, Asgarthians were working and it was a strange sight to see the Faræ working alongside Goblins, tools in their hands grime on their faces but it wasn't such a long time ago that the Faræ did much the same but for much different reasons.
In the make shift town that had been crafted around the complex, the scene is just as lively and bustling as any other town in Auruum, just more people and more inns, taverns, bars and 'water houses'. Signs were plastered here and there, each vying for attention.
