Hypothetically, if New York was dating Texas you know you already know is there going to a football game and it's not and it's a bills game and they're like going against the Patriots and not one of Texas teams you already know what New York is making Texas where or Georgia for that matter

For 92 years, the ruins of the Ortak dynasty have been inaccessible because of the heavy Kojjal presence in the region. But following the recent efforts of @vegvasignal, one of the ruins are now free to access and Yexa Exiles began excavation, determined to recover the lost relics of the Ortak and if the Broodmother wills it, they may find dormant eggs, which would allow us to revive their dynasty.

In other news, this one is happy to report the Primordials gave safe passage to the @darexirepublic aid, arriving in the Aradas Confederation, bringing with them medicine, healers, and general supplies. The highest priority hives in the region will be receiving the aid first.

Both of these alien-hives may seem strange at first, but this one feels hope for the first time in a long time.

[aradak-tribunal]

Broodmother's blessings on your hive for rescuing them, hive-kin. A Yexa contingent is on their way to escort, see to the wellbeing of the Queen, and return her to her hive-home. However, this disturbs us deeply, chittering of a Tribunal Court meeting has spread with the news. Rarely do the Queens meet, and often their meetings change the very face of Aradas itself.

| Our recon vessels triangulated the location of a hidden Kojjal fort in an occupied area of Aradas. After heavy fighting, all resisting enemy forces were captured and neutralised.

| Upon further investigation of the area, it was discovered that the Kojjal held an @aradak-tribunal Queen in chains, using her drones as a slave worker force.

| At the time, it was unclear how they managed to suppress her innate psionic abilities to control her drones, considering their relative technological progress. It became clear, however, that a combination of a shock collar and anaesthetic drugs fed through tubes were employed to achieve this effect. The fact that the Kojjal were able to do so is worrying. | The Queen was immediately released before the warriors of the United Clans' Army cleared the fort of any remaining hostiles. Her drones were freed afterwards.

Assassins’ Creed verse || Templar YX verse

Young Xehanort’s career, following his grandfather’s steps, is Archeology. He’s a specialist in ancient civilizations with a focus on Precursor Technology. 

It’s not unusual for him to travel when and wherever the Templar branch of any country finds anything that could be related to precursors. He’s already making a name for himself as an expert and consultant, even though he’s aware that this could mean eventual Assassin attention. 

He’s been trained as a Black Cross, but fighting is not his primary focus. 

Star Wars verse || Sith Lord verse

Ever since falling to the Dark Side he hasn’t returned to the Jedi Order, and he’s faking his death until he’s confident he can hide his new situation from even the most perceptive Masters

Ironically enough, the cover his grandfather (Darth Ansem, also known as Xehanort the Elder) crafted for Xehanort (the Young one) is that a Sith Lord killed him. 

Young Xehanort, now Darth Yexa, has been tasked with overseeing a few planetary colonies on the outer circles of the Galaxy and ensuring they are kept under Darth Ansem’s command, at least until Darth Yexa can return among the Jedi.

This one has great news. This one recently attended the 5th Meeting of the Court of Queens. Much was discussed in the forum and in private discourse. Many of the details of the event are only for Accord signatories, who will be sent copies of the meeting's record shortly.

What this one is allowed to share, is the following from the forum debates:

The terms Kojjal, Quazojj, and Lordak are to abandoned in an official capacity, henceforth they are to be known as Coyul.

An interhive initative of industrial revival and optional workforce mobilisation has begun, aided by the @darexirepublic offer to rebuild our infrastructure and cities.

Great Hives are allowed to invidually contact alien-hives, with the consent and observation of the Tribune.

Yexa and Xota representatives would like to interview @vegvasignal subjects with spiritual and scientific questions in regards to psionics.

And this one can share the following from the private discourse:

The Xav Empire announces its revival and vassalisation of the Qor Unity.

The Ikibat Federation and the Confederation of Aradas Hives agree once the Coyul are removed from their mutuals to establish a demilitarised neutral-zone.

Once the war tribunals begin, alien-hive Accord signatories are requested to attend for assistance in determining the right and proper treatment of Coyul war criminals.

Learning the conditions of the Coyul underlings endure under their cruel leadership, reservations will be established for the common Coyul POW and won't need to individually face the war tribunals but rather be collectively judged.

In stranger news, an unexpected image from from hunter-drones partcipating in the Great Hunt. They found a hunter-drone with many trophies, feeding Sandsnakes to a Dune-Terror after successfully downing a group of Devourers.

Only one Aradak has been said to tame Dune-Terrors, and in this time of prophecy, the Age of Rebirth, it is hard to ignore the signs. This one, and the hunter-drones who sent this image, believe that the mysterious hunter with a Dune-Terror pet is none other than the Demi-God Varakut, the Eternal-Hunter.

Varakut is said to return once a generation but sightings of him are too rare to know for certain. He hunts not just beasts, but monsters, demons, and abominations alike. Perhaps his coming means the end of the Devourers is near?

Praise the Broodmother we live in such miraculous times.

Great news, with repairs and power restored to the Grand Hatchery of Qor-Xavis, the Xota assisted Qor-Xavis drones in their project to return the Nursery Machines to functionality. Since then, the Xav Empire has taken thousands of dormant eggs out of storage and began their plan for repopulation.

Typically reviving a dormant egg carries heightened risks of defects that develop in the hatchling stage. And although Nursery Machines were created in the Age of the Accords to support hives with the population of billions such as the Xav megahives, they also negate the negative consequences of dormant egg revival.

Due to the abundance of such devices in the Qor-Xavis, the Yexa requested a repaired and functional Nursery Machine to be put aside for the revival of dormant eggs from dead dynasties. Naturally, the Xav Empress approved, and we should start to see a technical dynastic revival within a few years, and an effectual revival within a decade.

In other news, @vegvasignal drones requested access to the quarantined zone containing the hivephage infected Feral Hives to provide medical aid. Uata Venerable Exiles made many attempts in the past to assist, but with no known cure and high rates of infection, any Uata that entered the quarantine zone had to stay there.

The Uata approved the alien-drones request, and are hopeful that the disease won't affect their alien physiology, but they made sure to caution the Kin-drones on the violent tendencies of hives afflicted with hivephage.

All Venerable Exile organisations agree that if the Vegvian-hives are able to find a cure for hivephage, other forms of aid and reintegration will be readily availble to the Feral Hives and the quarantine will end.

[aradak-tribunal]

Excellent news, drones of all hives, since we first gained alien support in the war against the Coyul, the Yexa Exiles have been delving into the ruined hives of deceased dynasties. To learn lost knowledge about them, recover cultural artefacts, and most importantly, to find dormant eggs.

Once the dormant eggs were found, they were taken and stored at the Yexa Monastery until they were in the possession of a working Nursery Machine, to avoid the common issue of defects in the hatchlings that spawn from dormant eggs.

Thanks to the aid of alien hives, and the generous donation of Nursery Machines by the Xav Empire, the Yexa have successfully grown hatchlings from dead dynasties, and the first batch have begun pupation.

Since the hatchlings weren't exposed to hive pheromones, they will pupate into Queens, and once they emerge from pupation, they will have their rightful and lawful lands restored to them by decree of the Tribunal, and recolonisation of the dead territories will begin.

The Vur Grand Hive was the only great hive of Aradas to break the agreement not to settle the lands of dead dynasties, so their violating hives will have to resettle. This one hopes they abide by the decree.

[aradak-tribunal]

Great news, all-drones! This one has just received a report from the excavation team of the ruined Hive Ship in reclaimed Qor territory. They were able to access the cargo hold of the vessel and found a third of the cargo intact. As Hive Ships were meant to find and colonise new worlds, it has many stored minerals, alloys, and consumer goods necessary for a young hive to colonise a new world.

The Tribune has declared that two thirds of the resources will be shared with the fledgling hive settlements recolonising the surface of Aradas, to give the new hives access to pre-war technologies, and to allow them the opportunity to have a higher quality standards of livings and operating.

Meanwhile the remaining third is to be given to established hives, as the tools and equipment found in the Hive Ship's cargo are in much better condition than other repaired pre-war salvage.

In other news, a Qenik Master, Cezlzi uau Qenik, has now dubbed as The Hero of Uk by the Tribune for bravery and the successful siege of Nightblade Stronghold. He is to go to Mount Exile to receieve a medal. Until such a time, he has returned to the Qenik Monastery of Exile Island, as though he was treated by Uata healers and fitted with Vegvian cybernetics, he needs time to fully recover and-

It work! Hack easy, bugs stupid. All aliens listen to bug's story. That stop now. Now listen to Coyul. Am called 'The Engineer'. Am the smartest Coyul, made implants, be better survivors. Better survivors in face of alien predators. Survive even death. Aliens believe bug lies. Think they tell only truth? Think they never break alien GUN laws on us? Think they never break bug Accords? Stupid aliens.

Coyul born here, lived here, die here. Hear aliens already know Aradak displaced Coyul, 'reservations' bugs say. Bugs executed and tortured Coyul prisoners also, yes yes. Have evidence. Will attach.

Am with 'The Tactician' now, smartest of leaders, together we stronger. Stronghold Nightblade will not repeat, no no.

(Attached is a series of Coyul documents describing the execution and torture of Coyul POWs that appear perfectly authentic)

[STATIC]

Do we have it back? Klik, yes. Good. This one apologises about that. We don't know what just happened, our transmission cut suddenly.

As this one was saying, Cezlzi will be in seclusion to recover and pray for the recovery of their lost dynasty, the Orlko. As word spreads that the Yexa are now in possession of a Nursery Machine and await the hatching of a number of dead dynasties' dormant eggs.

[aradak-tribunal]

Wondrous news, we have new visitors to Aradas. Arriving in the hospitality of the Eta-Vet Pact, the Gidarean-drones from the Academy-hives came with general aid, gifts of lost Aradak artefacts, and cybernetic implants.

Though some of the artefacts have been found to be inauthentic by Yexa scribes, there is a wealth of lost culture that is lost no more. The Gidarean-drone explained they traded for the artefacts and the fakes are due to smugglers taking advantage of the Academy-hives good faith.

The Eta-Vet High-Queens have decided the aid is to be distributed across their ports to revive their island-hives. Whilst the authentic artefacts have been sent to the relevant hives or taken to the Yexa Vaults. As for the implants, they are now being studied by Xota researchers in hopes of further understanding this strange technology.

In other news, we are beginning to see the Interhive Reconstruction Initiative's first major success, as the Great Reactor of Qor-Xavis has successfully been partially restored. Enough to generate energy, that is. There is still much to be done, however.

Firstly, though functional the Great Reactor is only operating at 9% efficiency, thorough repairs and reconstruction are required to get it back to full operations. Secondly, Qor-Xavis alone requires repairs to its power distribution systems and most sectors of the city are not yet deemed safe to restore power to, due to overgrowth and damage. Nor are those sectors close to being resettled. Thirdly, the most important thing about the Great Reactor was its ability to power all of Aradas' hives, and the condition of the Deep Interhive Cabels is as of yet unknown. Though after close to four hundred years of neglect, we suspect there's quite a lot of work that needs doing.

All that aside, the core sector of Qor-Xavis now has power once again. And with that power, it will be much easier to restore the city and all of Aradas. We are one wing-flap closer, fellow drones. Praise the Broodmother.

[aradak-tribunal]

This one apologises on behalf of the Tribunal for the delay in communications. Unfortunately, the Coyul were jamming our signals. With that resolved, we have much news.

This one is happy to share the first piece of good news. With the aid of alien-hives and the Interhive Reconstruction Initiative, resettlement and repairs across Aradas have begun. It is a large project but once key parts of our infrastructure are restored, the rest of the work will be much smoother. The image above is of an engineering team at work in the ruined and neglected Qor-Xavis Grand Reactor. Once repaired, all of Aradas will have its energy demands met. Including but not limited to things such as the Yexa Grand Hatchery which will be used to revive deceased dynasties, and the Grand Vur Mining Complexes which used to supply a wealth of minerals to the Eta-Vet Foundry-Hives and the Nidun Manufactory-Nexus. An exciting prospect for our future.

The second piece of significant news, a crashed Hiveship of old has been discovered in the south of Qor Unity, in a region that was previously inaccessible due to heavy Coyul presence. Yexa and Xota Venerables are fascinated with the discovery, believing that the ruined vessel has many secrets both cultural and scientific. Though the Xota warn to temper our optimism with caution as the ruined vessel may have been scavenged by Coyul, potentially costing us valuable knowledge.

And lastly, the Baetsua Monks have taken to pilgrimage. Like in this image, where one visited a farming hive, met their drones, and shared Zunulla the Oracle's newest prophecy. The Suatotoxiqor – Prophecy of the Twin Demigods. Which this one is told goes as follows:

“Sands shift as two dance across Aradas, hatched of the same egg,

Heralding in the new Age, both risen by Divine hands,

Ascended worker-drones, a song of love to the caste,

Different like Qe and Uta, ice and fire, opposites play in duality,

One significant similarity is shared, spawnmarks on their sides,

Winged hatchlings adorn them, binding their fates,

Separated at hatching, their purpose plunges into them,

One serves as a hand in the shadows, the other as a voice in the light,

Neither will know their destiny until they know themselves,

Gods in the flesh, the Broodmother's gift to all Aradak.”

This one never understands the prophecies, but it sounds hopeful. Praise be the Broodmother.

[aradak-tribunal]

This one has fascinating news, Venerable Exile Vitak and Yexa representitives were summoned to Zunulla's Monastery to meet with the Oracle, the immortal speaker of prophecies and last living drone of the Broodmother's original brood. Such meetings only occur when new prophecies come to the Oracle, and according to the Venerable Exiles, another has been gifted. The Oracle explained how they found a hatchling with eyes glowing the Broodmother's light, crawling all alone and abandoned in the sands beyond the monastery. It is the Oracle's belief that this hatchling is the Koitzuean, the Soul-Warrior prophesied to save Aradas from grave threats. They gave the hatchling to the Yexa representative and instructed that it should be given pre-war growth hormones which are in short supply and only used sparingly. Before the Venerable Exiles left, the Oracle told the Vitak representative that "Greater things are to come, spirits have seen and converge. More is to come, destiny awakens and fate's hand touches Aradas, all drones now live in a new age, the beginning of the Age of Rebirth."

This one is shocked, the last time the Oracle announced a new age was just priority to the Kojjal invasion when they declared it the Age of the Tribune. The Council has already convened and agreed that today should mark the first day of AOR.

We also have other exciting news, this one is overjoyed to hear that the Quaztoul warrior-hunter hybrid drone have arrived from the @darexirepublic to aid in the fight against the Kojjal. The Qenik war attaché said "It was relieving to see Aradak unharmed by conflict, healthy, happy, with equipment and vehicles free of rust and decay. Though this one is disturbed by their strange cybernetic attachments."

The Quaztoul forces were instructed to direct their efforts to a newly discovered Kojjal presence on Aradas nestled in the Xol territories, which the Kojjal must have kept hidden until they were forced to reveal themselves as a result of @pactargent and @vegvasignal engagement of their other fronts.
