SPACE EMPIRES VOLUME I: Space Empire
Chapter X: ProtoSphere
Stardate: 2451.02

(The Solar Palace)
She read the interrogation reports again. She was shocked at how simple and effective the Fluidic Imperium plot was. Essentially, it was by "accidentally" releasing documents that were true, the rebellion occured. What makes it more interesting is that the documents released were not complete, which appeared to be selectively done to cause the maximum amount of harm. The starbase commander himself was somehow infected with an agent of the Fluidic Imperium, that was apparently implanted inside the unfortunate man. How the crew reacted to the documents released was with horror, denial, and finally, a feeling of betrayal. They thought that the entire project was to alter the life-giving sun by making it into a incredible planet...at the cost of the lives of the other inhabitants that occupied the Sol system. They did not know about the Starforge, so without that vital information, they rebelled from the Space Empire, thinking they were going to save the Sol System from a mad Grand Master. However, she knew it was not the case. There were supposed to be other documents about how the sun itself was to be replaced by another one, created by the will of the Space Empire. The deceased rebels were given a honorable crementation, through the sun they were trying to save. An ironic thing to do, it was supposed by the crew of the Space Palace. The Space Empire managed to keep the deaths secret, and quickly created many false alibis for the deaths of the persons involved, even using "blank" clones in order to emulate what the deceased looked like. It worked, and the Space Empire was quickly at work in other areas, trying to forget the disaster.

Despite the negative atmosphere the "Hammerite" caused, she was also happy: The Space Empire created a new planet publicly in the Sol System. Sol X was created using advanced technology purposely on a large group of asteroids. It was done with the Planet Forge MK.I. Despite this, the Space Empire was on alert: The Ferengi have recently taken to destroying planets and altering warp points. It was decided by the Grand Master that destroying the ferengi would be an important thing to do, considering how dangerous they were if they went to war with their Accountant Vs still available. On a happier tone, the Klingons have been defeated. It took the General Assault Fleet many months, but it was finally done. They have been eradicated, and the taskforce that did the deed has returned. The crews were granted permission to relax, and the Pegasus Reborn has become legendary. She got up, her own reports complete. Satisfied, she left the room, to talk to the other female members of the bridge crew. After all, what was she without gossip?

2458.02
A war was started against the Cardassians shortly after the General Assault Fleet returned. This war appears to be much quicker then the Last, with most of the Cardassian worlds removed from the equation. This period also saw the creation of the Sovereign, a vessel meant for the Grand Master when he goes into battle. It's crew is currently training, so that they may be able to fight better in upcoming battles. Also, the greatest project undertaken by the Space Empire up to now has been completed. The Sphereworld, Solar. Solar required much time, resources, and effort to be completed. Thankfully, it is now complete and shall serve as the Space Empire's capital. Also, a transaction with the Ferengi has been recently made, which resulted in the Space Empire's gain of Spica I in exchange for resources. Along with the planet, the people of it has become citizens of the Space Empire. They have been relocated to Solar, and Spica I now has human occupants. The Ferengi are restricted to living on Solar, but they do so gladly. They have greatly aided in the economic capacity of Solar, with their ruthless capitalistic methods. Their population amount is currently 21 million, while the human numbers are currently 47 billion.

2458.07
The Space Empire has lost all contact with the Cardassians, and it has been assumed that they have finally been wiped out. The Space Empire has decided that the three following races are next for removal: The Tholian Assembly, Delta Vega Society, and the Deveros Protectorete. Also, a new project has been in progress for a short period, the Draylax Ring World Project. This Ring World is to serve as the system capital of Draylax. This is to become a standard method with the core systems, by creating for each a ringworld as a capital-and final defense. The artificial structures of the Space Empire are able to hold planetary weapon emplacements, unlike most other world, which are not currently able to support such structures. According to a press release, this shall be amended later.
