[Organic] Consolidation

[Schwieger]

Orbis System;

Neptune and Uranus:

 

The chilly outer planets orbit lazily in their great ovaloid tracks, slowly chugging along in the distant void far from the day-to-day happenings of the Planet Orbis. Silence permeates this icy realm, but this solace is soon broken. From the tumultuous rift myriad ships are disgorged; tens of dozens of portals rend the fabrics relative to the two ice giants, allowing the vast behemoths of the VRZ access. The long ships of the High Hunter's Navy slide into coherent reality and take up positions. Neptune is received of its Pordic host first; a panoply of rift cruisers and 265 kilometer long Chorzhalb Zhyssian type dreadnoughts slide into its orbitals and are soon arrived off Triton. The tiny boreal satellite, practically spawned from Amaruq himself, answers the Nalydian aggression. A tall plume of icy particulates sallies forth from its arctic crust - freed from the agitated interior - to greet the trident-wielding warships of Pordlandia.

 

The rift ships of course are not impressed by the moon's struggle. Massive structures are loosed onto its surface and it has become clear that Triton is the first to be slated for Pordish colonization. Following the massive structures are a number of smaller craft (shuttles, perhaps), which follow them down onto the ice. Pords can be seen emerging from their interiors to begin working on establishing a settlement; some appear to be clad in civilian attire - varying types of robes and trousers and shirts - while others are easily discernible as members of the VRZ. 

 

Neptune is spared further colonization for the time being, but Uranus is not as fortunate. Within the localized moon-systems of Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon, Pordish warships descend. As with Triton, they unleash vast structures upon the numerous surfaces and allow for crews to begin establishing solid infrastructure. One city in particular rising out of the butternut-tinged surface of Oberon has been given the name Grazhni Yamsi, (in honour of the late Yamsi Natynozh) and is poised to become the capital of the newly christened Greater Nalydian Neptunian and Uranian Territory.

 

Halfway in between the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, more warships pour forth from the sickly domain. They bring with them a very large structure; it is a station of sorts, a large ring ten thousand kilometers in breadth (wide enough to permit the largest of VRZ warships passage as well as the bulk of UMS vessels save for some of the largest) and bespeckled with visible docking ports and orbiting berths for larger ships. It resembles the floating shipyards above Grazhni Yamsai almost perfectly; the primary difference is one of scale - the Yamsai'an yards are much larger and are not equipped for inter-universal transit. In the center of the massive ring swirl putrid energies - the energies of the plane separating universes: it is a portal that leads directly to the Nalydian home universe; upon entering the portal, warship, man, and body would find themselves whisked away to its mirror station, a similar ring that has just been moved into position in the outskirts of a system a mere dozen lightyears away from the bustling GESO hub of Talos.

 

Orbis Proper:

 

Long streams of men and equipment flow south towards the Cape Verde and Canary Islands. They are part of High Hunter Nykat's continued expansion plan; he has already ordered the construction of a Jewel for each ocean on Orbis, and has cleared the seizing of islands and water-bound territories across the globe in the name of Rekazhnar, the pelagic guardian of the lakes, seas, oceans, and tides. While elements of the VRZ establish Nalydian presence in the outer-reaches of the system, naval infantry land on and claim the numerous islands that comprise the Cape Verde and Canary Islands; with the lands mostly unorganized and uninhabited they encounter no resistance and the operations are completed without issue. Within hours of their fall, a photo begins to circulate throughout the Pordish colonial holdings of a Paramarine smiling as she raises the division standards and VRZ standards above a very precariously perched native structure.
