Rhian tr`Elenhh paced down the hallway of the shuttle carrying him toward the ch`Revelian station, all of the possessions he had brought with him in the bag over his shoulder. As the docking procedure completed, he stepped through the airlock, identified himself to the Station authorities, then continued to his new quarters on the RES Kalen.

Personal Log, Rhian tr`Elenhh, StarDate 239902.28.
The ch`Revelian station is impressive, and the construction of the Kalen is almost as impressive. I saw a few of the crew in the corridors, but none that I knew, although I recognised a few from security reports and their biographies. I'd better finish unpacking, then it's time for a little... interaction.
End Log.

He finished unpacking, then took a shower...
*=\/=*
Barely perceptible, a tall man standing silhouetted against the background,
growls at the security as he passes the officers. An automatic door lumbers
open, the figure darts through into the airlock, carrying a small package. A
short blade clinks on his back as his steps are heard upon the hard floor. He
steps onto the Kalen for the first time to report for duty. He goes to his quarters
quickly. A smirk crosses his face as he takes a look at the roster, and his
gaze rests on his captain's name for a moment. Engraved on his bag is the
inscription: Erien tr`Kuro

[CO's Log 239903.7]
It had been an eventful day: New recruits were still being processed, the construction on the Kalen was complete, and political closer had been reached with the ch`Revelion government. The day abruptly opened with the Blaze of klaxons. Barely dressed, I ran to the oira and catching an Eredh by the collar learned system security had been breached: at least 3 craft were en rout to ch`Revelion. Riov t`Brook and erei`Riov tr`Malus had been dispatched to investigate while the minimal station batteries were brought on-line.
Enriov tr`Ronga>::strides onto the oira:: Status!?
Duty Officer> Perimeter defenses report three maybe four ships entered the system, under cloak, approximately 5 siuren-a ago. The Ael`Khellian and Ra`Khore are moving to intercept.
tr`Raith> ::moves to the com station:: Ra`Khore reports 2 targets acquired rekkhai ...t`Brook is still en rout.
tr`Ronga>::turns to face SCI station:: any idea what type of craft they are?
SCI>::looks up:: Best guess: probably all D`Jarums ...their mass is to low to be anything larger ::glances back to his console:: and their power signature is definitely Rihannsu.
Nearly 25 Siuren-a pass. 4 definite targets are acquired by the system defense craft. When they near weapons range all 4 light cruisers de-cloak and hail the station.
tr`Ronga>::acknowleges the com:: Identify yourselves and explain why au are in quarantined space?
D`jarum1> I could ask au the same ke`rhin (fellow Romulan) ::screen snaps on:: If I understand your motivation correctly au could use my help.
tr`Ronga> ::eyes narrow but he seems more relaxed:: Well then I guess I wont have to kill au then. Jolan tru senator. What brings au here ::motions Raith to call off the Kalens::
Senator EnRiov tr`Loose explains that his post in the senate has recently been compromised due to his opposition to the Fed-RSE war. Further more, word had recently reached him that a small group of dissidents had begun forming in a system long since shrouded in mystery. He had decided that inspecting this rumor would be beneficial: either by gaining support by crushing disorganized dissidents or joining a potential new power in the Empire. Preparations were made and screening was begun for the thousand Rei`Krannsu and 500 Galae officers under his command.
Since most of the senior staff was busily I was nominated to finalize talks with the ch`Revelion central government. It was nothing difficult really, tr`Ronga had effectively laid out our offer: We would supply tech and training to the inhabitants of ch`Revelion while they would help in construction and devote troops to our cause.
After kicking Back with Erien tr`Kuro on the grounds of the newly founded regional academy, I hopped the evening transport back to the station. It accured to me that I hadn't eaten all day so I stopped in the mess hall and chatted with tr`Ragarok, my new chief science officer. as I was about to leave the mess Kuro caught my attention and tossed me an ISD. I read it and ran out the door, down the long winding corridors to a porthole.
Outside a sleek hunter green shape rested, no longer encumbered with scaffolding and working engineers. I almost cried with joy.
The RES Kalen was ready to launch.
