A small ship entered orbit around a large, brown planet. It's scorched surface was mostly empty, however along it's equator was a long streak of highly populated metropolitan areas. This small ship was one among many ships moving in and out of the area, performing acts of trade, transportation and security. However, it was one of the only ships that did not originate in the Sergal Empire, and was not constructed from the strange magical alloys utilized in most Sergal technology. It was dark black, with a single engine in the back, and no visible protection or weapons. It did, however, have a rather capable Warp Drive, although it's nature would make it nearly impossible for the Sergal to realize this. A routine message was broadcasted by one of the officers in a nearby space station, checking all unidentified contacts attempting to enter the planet. If it turned out to be a threat, a variety of ships stood ready to protect their homeworld from foreigners, in addition to a number of planetary defense systems. [Please state your name and business within the Sergal Homeworld. We would appreciate it if you would power down any and all weapons aboard your ship.] The reply was in a slow, almost mocking tone. And yet, somehow, it sent a shiver down the officer's back. "My name is Mia Gorgon, I'm here on diplomatic business. I represent both Stein and myself, and wish to speak with the leaders of your little empire."
