>With a shriek of feedback, com consoles throughout the room come to life, a pirate transmission hijacking them. A large, imposing figure with leathery grey skin, short trunk and two curling tusks decorated with gold rings and chains, wearing a green military dress uniform and black metal plates of armour, appears on screen, looking grim This is a transmission to the Galactic Federation and any other group capable of receiving us. I am General Ulza of the zaydran. For many years, my people have laboured as slaves for the Elasi and their 'Divine Kingdom'. We long had held the belief of life amongst the stars, but we had no way of knowing that they would come to find us, or how soon. We had barely made our first hesitating flights beyond our atmosphere when they came to us, bringing their lies and technology. Many of our governments submitted at once, but there were those that resisted and fought. We were utterly crushed, with no way to maintain control of our skies, much less orbit and the zaydran people were bound into servitude to the Elasi, just as others were before us!
Well I say ENOUGH! No longer will we toil as slaves and soldiers and bow to their false god, their harlot queen! The first blow has been struck and we claim the Kingdom of Ryush as ours! Our soldiers are legion, our will is iron and freedom will! Be! Ours! If any of the Federation and beyond care for democracy and for justice, then I ask you to send what aid you can, that we may better fight our overlords! The Zaydran Republic will not be ungrateful, on that you have my word. This is a war we must win and that we WILL win! Glory to the republic!

This Hive beast should mind his tone, or we'll finally have live targets for the Ra cannon.
So there's a armed revolt over a annexation. Not uncommon, but it must be bad for a refugee crisis to emerge.
Jose Thompson
Because our support is unofficial the Dominion armadas are not available for use but voidforce fleets stealth capabilities should prove useful in gathering information and covert operations
Ryan Morris
The Ryush refugee crisis began 31 galactic-standard days ago, following multiple impacts across two colonised worlds and multiple moons and deep-space installations of the Ryush Sector (cultural designation: Lesser Kingdom), caused by a rogue meteorite storm.
This resulted in widespread ecological devastation, hundreds of millions of deaths, large-scale destabilization of the sector, along with the displacement of 1.2 billion sentient beings.
Allow me to excuse it, but my my home world was once under threat of destruction from a hive mind. This Hive mind is also rude, and requested the honoured dead.
Disturbing, is there any help we can provide?
Gabriel Campbell
Well,then it seems it wasn't a refugee crisis after all.This matches the statistics,that showed the incident affected only a few planets in the sector.
So,what should we do?
Yes,we once had to defend Yss from attack by a Hivemind.
Kevin Perry
Whatever we can do. It must be in the from of aid, however, as deploying armed forces may incur a diplomatic incident.
Cooper Price
They have broken now. This world now belongs to the United Empire and the beings kept in slavery are rapidly being released for rehabilitation. I have sent you the footage. Use it wisely as an example of your leader's weakness. Yes and were we not assured that our citizens would remain unmolested? And you should mind your tone. Our citizens have not engaged in any insurrection you were the one to violate the agreement. Thank you. We would all like some information on the situation. It's 40k time so see ya lads
Caleb Harris
But who should we aid?Now,it may seem obvious to aid the Zaydran,but keep in mind that they are also warlike,and the Eortite kingdom has been an ally.
It's a decision to aid either one,and both decisions have merits.
But I'm cool for just sending a fleet over and killing everyone in the Ryush sector.Let the new hive have the bodies,and it takes less time.
Whatever solution is chosen,I will help.I guess.
Now,I must go for a bit.I'm going to launch the Nietzsche now,before the unfathomable horrors try and break it again.
If this works,I will come back with new info,and the Wastes will absorb the Womb into its being.
