"They aren't making a move."
"Unsurprising, if they entered our space they would be destroyed, no, they want to lure us out, to get us on their battlefields so they can destroy us."
"With the Oculatus report, I am unable to recommend an attack at this time, we require an opening."
"An opening which doesn't exist"
"Indeed. The Equestrians wish to draw us out into the battlefield of their choice, and they are positioned to defend their more important worlds. Carving a path through their defences is no easy task.'
"If we could slip a force through and to their cradle, and touch their sun...."
"We risk creating a war of a thousand days if we do. Undesirable"
"Affirmed. What if we were able to divide them?"
"Explain"
"A psionic amplifier on the homeworld of one of the Pact Nations, the Asari perhaps. Once they bend knee to us we can use them to drive a blade through the heart of the Equestrian unity."
"That requires too much time and resources, we cannot risk it. The Equestrians image is nearly completely destroyed among the peoples of the galaxy. We need merely one more incident, one more cruel action and we can turn their weapon against them. But it has to be big, something that could cause an uproar among the people and a condemnation from the institutions of the universe. We need a final push to finally break the myth and lies the Equestrians have shrouded themselves in."
"Affirmed, but they will not make another mistake now, they will be meticulously careful, we wont see another mistake until long after this war is complete"
"Confirm, are the forces in position?"
"We have forces en route from the far galaxies, they should be here soon. We will then be ready to go to war, and the Equestrians will not stand a chance"
"Excellent... So this is how it begins... For the greater good!"
"Whatever the greater good demands."
