As the Admiral was about to send a message back to the Draconians, Aurora paused him and looked forward, fire now in her eyes as she clearly had become driven to defeat Kibō-hosh.

"Nevermind them, our focus is Kibō-hosh. Once we conquer it we shall wipe the floor with these so called Draconians." Aurora finally turned to the console and broadcasted a message across Kibō-hosh, and addressed them to the General.

"Honor you say? Under our system of honor your entire species a disgrace. I made that promise with one intention, to seize the capital of this world as quickly as possible, then blockade the planet. We fought you, because we saw all the defenses you had built in and around our home system. We were scared and lashed out thinking that you had come to kill us. However we were mistaken, and this was our last planned offensive. After that we were going to contact your nation and sign a white peace. However I was contacted by my father, the Emperor, and informed of Colony World A-02. On that planet their lived happily 100 million Roman Citizens, civilians they were to. Some men, some women, and some children. They would have been incapable of ever fighting back against you, but do you know what happened? They all burned in the fire of antiprotons, all dead in a single instance. I broke my promise because under Roman standards of Honor, you were a filthy and vile people, and thus not worthy of promises. This war is no longer driven by fears of invasion, but rather vengeance. For every life lost on A-02, I shall claim ten of your peoples! And you know what, I do believe know that Romans are superior to you Abh, except in one aspect...

You are better at dying!"

[b]Kibō-hosh, Ground Battle[/b]
The Romans kept on pushing harder, because for their entire time they military they had been told their only purpose now was to server the Empire and Emperor. They have been taught to ignore their comrades falling, and only to push and defeat the Abh. Many who were now just being deployed had been told of what had happened at A-02, and many of those told had families their. They pushed into the Abh with a vengeance, seeking to destroy them. Explosions rang out across the field as all of the orbital bombardment coming from the Roman Ships in orbit became focused on the in-coming air fleet, unleashing vast amounts of firepower down upon it. The swarms of Roman Bug Fighters only continued to rain, as some now turned into Kamikaze Pilots and rammed Abh Fighters, massive amounts of transports descended the sky, adding to the ever-growing horde of Roman Soldiers.

As the Romans pushed into the city orbital bombardment rained down upon the chokepoints. New paths opened up, allowing the Romans to spread out across the city. The Romans hordes continued marching, not ceasing. Orbital strikes continued to rain down, focused on those blocks away from the Roman Forces. While the huge horde that the Romans had deployed was mostly the relatively untrained Imperial Guard, the sheer amount of troops deployed stretched far and wide, and vastly outnumbered the remaining Abh Defenders. The Abh may fight valiantly and bravely, but the Romans fought out of undying loyalty to the Emperor.

Apollo sat their a minute, pondering what the Commander had said.

"I am interested as learning as much about your history as possible, as I believe is is the most important gateway to understanding other cultures. Is there a museum or other place of learning we could go so I may acquire such information?" questioned Apollo.

[b]Roman Colony World A-01, the Capital[/b]
Several Roman Soldiers watched the Builder descend from his ship then enter the building. Quite a few were not Romus Humans, but Solusi or even Forsythe, but they clearly were suspicious of the Builder and the rest of his species. A few soldiers escorting them explained to the Builder that is had been the Psionic Message he had sent. Tradition in the New Roman Empire held that if you communicated via mind, you informed the person you were communicating with them through their mind. The breaking of this age-long tradition had clearly upset many a soldier and citizen.

When the Builder and his two escorts finally arrived in the Roman, it was a simple glass round table, a large holographic projector showing A-01 in the middle. A tall man sat across from the table, although unlike other Romus Humans his skin was much lighter rather then the skin of the Mediterranean that many Romus Humans had. Also unlike the other soldiers, the ones he had protecting him wore much fancier and more advanced armor, and had better weapons. At that they were Psionics, so it was clear this man also had his suspicions of the Builder after the psionic message.

"Greetings, and welcome to Colony World A-01. I am Governor Klaus, and I rule this colony in the Emperor's name. You mentioned Knowledge, and the Roman motto is Knowledge is Power. What specifically do you seek from the New Roman Empire?" asked Klaus, his tone was actually rather friendly, despite everything that had happened.
