A War for the Stars

[Erax]

Admiral Wiers' private log, SGY 2403.2:

Seeker I has arrived at Berlin III, where the new starport has just become operational. They will pick up supplies and come to Virgillia, then head to Gesaril. Captain Veren and his crew have been away for almost two years; everyone here wants to meet them and hear about their exploits.

Syned I now boasts a spaceyard, but we must build other facilities there before they can start building ships.

Comet IV has been launched. She will stop at Berlin III for supplies, then head for Gandle Ott IV.

Acting on Ambassador Reima's suggestion, we refused to break our treaty with the Interstellar Alliance. Yakrin displeasure with this was evident; once the Alliance learned of the incident, they offered to broaden our treaty by including the exchange of scientific information as well as goods. We accepted eagerly; perhaps their scientists know who built the hyperconduit web. Our diplomats tell me that the Interstellar Alliance is a powerful ally. Together we may rule this sector.
