Re: Milky Way Galaxy (Space Itself)
Draven paused for a moment.
"OK, I have no idea what the hell that's supposed to mean, but I'm on my way back up then."
As soon as he opened the file, he was in for another surprise. A Klarnell suddenly appeared on the bridge! At least, it appeared to be a Klarnell at first, until it began to flicker slightly, indicating it was a hologram. It regarded the two of them for a moment, before beginning to speak in what Alberik would easily identify as Ancient, for their language was contained in his memory banks thanks to the Asgard.
((Stuff in (") marks will indicate in another language from me.))
("Greetings, you are probably wondering why a Klarnell would choose to record a message and design an AI virus specifically to scan for you and relinquish control of such a powerful ship to you. We are aware of the long standing battle between your kind and ours. Know however that not all choose to support these actions. Enclosed in a smaller file are details regarding the reason this war started, and the belief a large number of our people hold. However ours is not the only offshoot grouping, there are others who are outcast even by our war hungry brethren, those who simply wish to eradicate all life, believing our plight is unsolvable. Their ultimate goal is to wipe out all other life, taking you with them. You of course know of the main forces, the ones who capture your women for various needs and desires. Then there are my people. We long ago realized the errors in judgement, and the real reason for our plight through researching. This of course dealt with what you call anomalies. We have been, with little success, opposing our brethren since the start of the war, but we are few in number. I fear our days are very limited, as our brethren now consider us a threat to their ultimate goals, which by now you must know of. In a last ditch effort to disrupt their plans, this virus was created to seek those out who would ally themselves with those known as the Alverans. Originally, this message was to be received upon the ship arriving at the planet called Earth, however if you are hearing this portion, then you have been scanned by the ship's systems, and the virus is now dormant. I entrust you will deliver all of the information in the systems to the Alverans, in the hopes you can end this nonsense. If we are still alive when this happens, then perhaps we have a chance to eventually establish a peaceful relationship. Nevertheless, no matter what you decide down the road, the others must be stopped before they accomplish their goals. This ship, and all of it's technology are now yours, and you will find key information regarding what we ourselves know of the anomalies, which should at least give you a fighting chance. Good luck, and may your side prevail.")
A moment later, the hologram winked out, leaving Alberik and Ariana to process things differently. Alberik at least would know what had been said. For Ariana, she would have no idea what had just happened, but might have the feeling she had missed something big.
