"Hi honey, its me. I made it to the Milky Way and the
city-station. Seems its like deja vu, walking the corridors
again after all these years. I want to thank you again for
lending me the ships, and it seems I also picked up allies on my
way. One of them is actually interested in discussing an
alliance with Inuyashia. They should send an emissary to your
court soon, but there is another person who is interested in
meeting you personally. There is one other matter I need to
bring to your attention. While visiting the flagship of one of
my new allies...the one that is interested in an alliance with
Inuyashia, in fact....I was introduced to a pair of twin girls
who have been orphaned by the Civil War in Trekylon. As a favor,
I was asked to become a foster father to them. You will want to
adopt them once you meet them, they are too adorable.
Considering the trauma they've been through, they will need you
and Mitsuki to show them the love they lost. It'll take three
days via fast-transport, but they will be better off on Gaia
than here in a warzone. Part of me misses you by my side, but
part of me is relieved that you aren't here, especially given
what happened to you during the Civil War. I will contact you
again as soon as I can. All my love."
Michael I sent the transmission, then leaned back as far as
possible on his stool. He was indeed happy that his wife wasn't
here on the front lines, but also truly sad that she wasn't by
his side. He still wasn't sure how to break the news about
Altani, which was why he didn't mention her by name but did say
she wanted to meet with her. He was gonna have to trust Altani
to explain that aspect of Mongol custom, and trust his wife to
forgive and accept her. He felt a tug on his sleeve and he
turned to see Cotata staring at him with glistening eyes.
Cotata - "Are you gonna be our daddy?"
Michael I felt his heart sink with that question. Coming from
someone as young as Cotata, it felt like a blow to the heart.
Michael I took her hand in his, tears starting to fill his eyes.
Michael I - "Yes, Cotata. I am going to be your daddy. And you
will meet your mommy and big sister and big brothers very soon."
Toragana - "Will they like us?"
Michael I - "I think they will. You aren't the first children we
adopted, after all. There were two other children, from
different worlds and different circumstances, whom we also
adopted. They've grown up to be fine young adults. The girl,
Jade, is even married to the emperor of Trekylon."
Cotata - "What is your name?"
Michael I - "My name is Michael."
Cotata thought about it, trying to remember if there was a
Mongolian name for Michael, "Mitol"
Michael I chuckled at Cotata's attempt to pronounce his name,
"Close enough."
He took her hand, then took Toragana's hand and led them from
the room back into the corridor. They walked for a few minutes
before reaching Latchport 1, where Winston was approaching from
farther up the corridor. Sure enough, he carried two wolf plush
toys in his hands. Both girls giggled with delight and rushed to
meet Winston, who handed them their plushies. Both girls bowed
to Winston, who at first looked befuddled. Michael I nodded to
him and he nodded back, in understanding.
Michael I - "Alright girls, its time for you to go to Gaia."
Toragana - "Will we see you again, daddy?"
Michael I - "You have my word as a father that I will return."
Both girls smiled for the second time he's been with them. They
entered the latchport connector as the doors closed behind them.

GNN broadcast of Drake I's appeal for peace
"This is Drake I, Emperor of the Intergalactic Empire and
Federal Commonwealth of Trekylon...I send this broadcast out for
all in the 'verse to hear, but in particular and especially the
peoples of the Great Houses of Xie, Jovepenia, and
Rhamos........Just four days and six hours ago, our
armada....with the assistance of the Intergalactic Federacy of
which Trekylon is a member....defeated your spacefleets in
Gateway Sector. Our fleet was also responsible for the defeat of
the Xie fleets just outside Imperial space in Bode's galaxy. The
reasons for the battles have been made clear, it is the gross
violation of the self-determination of the Veruloni people, the
enslavement of captive peoples such as the Venzetti....the
support given covertly to the rebels in our recent Civil
War...and the attempted civil war in the Greater Empire of
Showa...that forced us to declare war on the Great Houses of
Xie. You have lost over 30% of your total offensive force and
you have forced your allies.....Jovepenia, Rhamos, Serdaristan,
UPT, and the New Terran Republic...to sacrifice their fleets and
fighting men...to prop up your war effort.....I wish to appeal
to those nations...and the public within the Great Houses...to
end the fighting now and accept my offer of dialog. My terms are
simple....either self-determination or independence for the
people of Verulon Prime....reparations toward Greater Showa and
Trekylon of no more than I$50,000...and recognition of
Trekylonian control of the Gateway Sector of the Milky Way
galaxy and an ironclad pledge to permanently withdraw from
Bode's galaxy. If you accept these provisions, you need not lose
more ships, more men, and possibly....your territories scattered
across the Milky Way, because make no mistake....should you
refuse or choose to ignore this offer....our terms will become
more harsh. Our diplomatic channels will remain open, but the
longer you hold back, the worse the terms sought will become.
Let this appeal be known to all in the 'verse...and let it be
said that I did make the attempt at peace..whatever else happens
is out of my hands.....gloria Trekylon."

Galaxy-1 space
As the warpshuttle departed the city-station on its way to the
Galaxy Gate and back to Gaia, Michael I's multinational fleet
cruised into holding position. From his vantage point back
aboard Alabama, he could see the Cardassian, Tholian, and Gorn
fleets but was unable to locate the Kinshaya, Romulan, Klingon,
or Breen. He had received the report that a multiracial fleet
was joining the Imperial Armada, and found himself disappointed
by the ships that had arrived. Rhelor announced a massive
tachyon surge all around the station and amongst the Armada.
Michael I turned back to the viewport just in time to see
rippling among the stars. The ripples took on a solid form,
resolving into the myriad Klingon, Romulan, Kinshaya, and Breen
ships cruising past. Michael I now realized he would need to
include cloaked ships in his various 'cavalry raids' and
resolved to invite the commanders to the holoconference he would
hold with Commodore Rhess
.......to be continued in next thread
