Two days after the original work day ended Jessibelle's people had made spectacular progress, the massive skeleton had been fully covered in its protective hull. About 600 men and women were devoted to the main ship, however 300 workers were devoted to another smaller project. These 300 workers were divided into three groups: 

Group A: Smaller faster ships, 140 workers were focused on this project. Creating ships the size of fighter jets for easy combat deployment.

These ships were being built at a rate of 11 per day, their simple and small design assisted greatly. Their engines were small rotating tetrahedronal objects connected to output receivers, it functioned in almost the same way as an internal combustion engine in terms of output. They're not very advanced in terms of technology, but they would prove to be efficient.

Group B: 120 workers focusing on a second large ship, only 100 feet from end to end. They had made good progress but otherwise it was nowhere close to being finished. 

Only the skeleton was built.

Group C: The remaining 40 workers were sent out with tradable materials to purchase enormous food stocks, these food stocks will be important in later days. 

Now, back to the main ship. Day in and day out Jessibelle had been working alongside her people to create this great ship, the front section had been fully encased in a protective hull and a secondary section had been constructed. Attached to the massive H shape was a large hexagonal prism that was as wide and long as the H in front. it was, however, half as tall as the H is long. Making it an enormous skeletal block of metal that could be seen from miles away. They had been working tirelessly on the front half, leaving the second portion almost completely bare.

Time to get back to the character here. 

Jessibelle, about 9pm took a break from working and traveled into the supercity and paid a rather hefty sum to be televised to the people of the city. With a bit of rehearsal Jessibelle planned something rather dubious for the people of Mystique. The Empress presented herself on what was equivalent of television to these people and began to speak, she spoke of many things but most importantly was her offer of mutual peace, at the cost of substantial trading supplies. Jessibelle worded this in such a way as to not sound threatening, but also excluding the option of violent opposition to the concept. This trade agreement was as such: The Ahs Chini would provide schematics for terraforming machines to return their planet to its former state, away from the wasteland appearance. And in return the Ahs Chini would be allowed access to any number of tons of metal for construction. 

This exchange was rather vital, as the Ahs Chini were running low on tradeable goods, and if an exchange of information for goods and services wasn't enough then it would result in catastrophic failure of the fortress. Leaving Jessibelle's people stranded on the planet. Jessibelle, of course, mentioned this in the most innocent and damsel-in-distress-ly way possible. A few hours later and the empress met with the head political leader of the super city and discussed the agreement, with a bit of bargaining and Mortimer 'accidentally' breaking the arm of a guard who tried to disarm him, a consensus was reached. 

The Mystans agreed to the trade agreement and Jessibelle returned home with good news. 

It's quite sad that the terraforming technology wouldn't work on this planet, how unfortunate that technology doesn't work without magic here.
