"Yes, the colonies are in open rebellion against the empire. The Equiis Pact is at war with the empire as well, and the AIF will likely assist once relations with the Equiis Pact are mended. If the whole Federation doesn't help, then you can be sure us Dolphins will. It really is sad, how violence is required for freedom. It should be a common right for everyone, not just those fortunate enough to be born into a free nation."

Surprised by their apparent knowledge of the Earth Alliance, the Abh responded.
"Yes, the Federation was formed just last year. In fact, us Abh are terrans ourselves, we were created by the humans. Of course, the Dolphins are also from Earth. Now, how do you know about the Earth Alliance? We've never heard of this planet being inhabited, nor have we heard of your own people. What do you call yourselves?"

"Well, Earth religions were never as tolerant as your own one. Human history is littered with wars like the one between you and the Sazkarjhit. The Common Sense War was basically a relapse of earlier religious wars, brought on by increasing tension and the ability of religious leaders to make their followers do anything they wanted done. On our planet, religions weren't created due to actual events like most non-Terran ones. Religion first began as a way to explain things that humans could not comprehend at the time, but it soon morphed into nothing more than a way of controlling people. That's why the wars were fought. The soldiers thought it was over truth and proving they were right, but the leaders knew it was only so they could have more people under their control. Since the Doctrinal Conflict, we've somewhat banned organized religion. All religious meetings need to rotate priests to prevent power corruption, and they have to add equality for people of all religions into their holy texts. It really is too bad that human religion didn't evolve like yours did, they could have advanced so fast without all the wars getting in their way."

Encyclopedia Entry, Fergus McClain
NOTE: Article moderated due to importance.
Fergus McClain was born on September 5th, 2000 on the planet Earth (Terra), in a territory held by the United States of America. In 2023, when the 3rd World War broke out, he was drafted by the United States Navy to fight in the Pacific Theater. Not willing to kill innocents (The USA had attacked first due to claims fabricated by the incredibly racist president at the time), Fergus went AWOL off the coast of Canada. Stealing a lifeboat, he landed in British Columbia and was rescued by an underground resistance movement fighting the Americans (Whom had attacked Canada as well due to their opposition to the Asian war). The movement was led by a radical supporter of civil rights, who had moved to Canada to escape the prejudice of America. Her name was Lia Sora, with a relation to the current Admiral Yuuki Sora. While still living with them in Canada, they got news that the vessel Fergus was stationed on (the USS Freedom) was destroyed by a Chinese fleet sent in a desperate attempt to destroy essential USA Naval production facilities. Taking advantage of the situation, Fergus took the original lifeboat he had with him and headed for California. Once he arrived, he told them he was the only survivor and had lived on the lifeboat for months. Reports are disputed, but it is likely that he implied the destruction of multiple Chinese troop transports by himself in the last hours of the ship. Though the President didn't believe him, he decided to use the story as propaganda to get more recruits. The president invited Fergus to a banquet in his honor, but Fergus' whole story was nothing more than a ruse to get close to the President and his cabinet. He poisoned the food and drink with Cyanide, killing the President along with his cabinet within hours. With the organizational structure temporarily in disarray, the Chinese were able to launch successful attacks on production facilities, crippling the US military. The resistance movement then swept through the USA, taking a large chunk of their land. Many years later, in 2047, Fergus McClain announced the completion of an interstellar drive system in orbit of Earth (Terra) by KeyTech, a company that had bought out nearly all other private spaceflight firms. Being the CEO and somewhat eccentric, he appointed himself as the commander of the mission that would utilize the Matter/Antimatter drive system. The mission went exactly as planned, and Fergus McClain returned as the first human to set foot on an exosolar planet. Since then, he has become on eof the most prominent leaders in Federation history. He has given credit to good luck for most of it.

"Really? I never knew that." Said the Dolphin, the translation software creating a surprisingly natural voice for him. "I really should try to get some more info on your people, but translated texts are hard to find due to us living in water and not having a written language. You know, it's strange. For quite a while all we heard of the humans was from either Dolphins released from their care or those who got snagged by fishing nets. Needless to say, we got a lot of very different stories. But for some reason, we always wanted to get the humans on our side. Probably because they had a whole lot of food that we wanted. When that first submarine came and released five Dolphins who told us that the humans had figured out how to translate our language, we were all so happy that we wouldn't need to hunt anymore. Then the first of our 'tribes' as the humans called them was taken into space, and we realized that the humans had just taken us from being hunters to being an interstellar species overnight. It was a wonderful feeling, I hope you'll get to feel it someday. You feel so powerful and so free, like nothing could hold you down."

Council Meeting
Dmitri sighed in relief, and closed up the vote with a less than standard statement.
"Couldn't have said it better myself, Adam." He then turned to the Abh Empress and the Dolphin 'Leading one'. "You should get ready for a diplomatic meeting, us figureheads of the Federation will need to show for this one. Fergus, Emily, you'll be transporting the diplomatic party."
Fergus and Emily took a confused look at eachother, then Emily looked at Dmitri.
"Uhh, he's in the Star Forces. I'm in the Peace Corps. Oh yeah, the Peace Corps are dedicated to spreading peace throughout the stars, because you definitely forgot that. You know why? Because NOBODY EVER CARES ABOUT THE PEACE CORPS!"
"Well now we do. Fergus is tagging along because he's talked to Faust and seems to be friends with her."

Unexplored Space, Former Colonization Candidate World
An Abh warship jettisoned its distinctive block of negative matter into space, slowly approaching the former colony candidate. The planet was originally marked for human colonization, but had been overlooked in favor of Gliese 581g due to it being NOT a thousand light years away. As the great behemoth drifted through the vast void of space, it began to pick up radio signals from the nearby planet. While it had been dispatched to check for any sort of intel relay, it certainly wasn't expect as many radio signals as it picked up. Its crew scanned the planet quickly, and discovered it was inhabited and developed already. The species that was on it was uncertain from the location the warship was at, but it sent a message to the planet anyways, along with a translation matrix and hoping for the best.
"This is Manowas Lameima of the IFV Atsuuken. I am speaking for the entire Allied Interstellar Federation, a nation that spans multiple galaxies including a sizable chunk of this one, where it was founded. It is currently made up of three species, the Dolphins, the humans, and my own species, the Abh. This vessel has stumbled across your planet on a mission to check for any spy outposts, so don't worry about an invasion." Her voices fades out for a moment, but can still be heard, but quieter. "What's that? Oh come on, can we not do that this time? Oh, all right. But you have to deliver the message."
A human could then be heard, his voice shaking a tiny bit from excitement. "I greet you on behalf of the inferior ones, humanity. I hope we can coexist in peace."

Message to the Equiis Pact
A message has been sent to the Equiis Pact from the IFV Unity, Emily's flagship.
"Peace and harmony. That is what you claim to want, it is what I want, and it is most certainly what Faust wants. But it is not what you are promoting. You are promoting revenge, yes, it is well-deserved revenge, but it is not peaceful nor harmonious. It is possible to stop their genocides through diplomacy, but instead you have chosen to kill them all, even the innocent civilians! That's the kind of thinking that brought us the Common Sense War and Doctrinal Conflict, it's the kind of thinking that killed one hundred billion through planetary annihilation, it's the reason revenge is carried out without a second thought. There can be a peaceful resolution to this, just refrain from destroying species for now and we can work this out."

As the boy wandered around the ship, floating weightless due to the complete lack of a gravity ring, the Dolphins took note of him as well. They had extensive experience with "landswimmers" as they called land creatures, but they still wondered what it was like to walk on the land without a robotic avatar. For all the envy land creatures had for them, they had an equal amount of envy for land creatures. Some of them stopped to look at the boy, as none of them had ever seen a Hach before. However, they all left after a while towards the clicks and whistles of their commanding officers telling them to get back to work. They boy also saw the unique instrumentation of the ship, and he could see the Dolphins gracefully manipulating the craft using echolocation to ripple the water in just the right place so as to be picked up by scanners connected to control circuits. Yes, they could have used AI, but Dolphins seemed to love doing things on their own. Eventually, the boy came upon a translation interface used to communicate with the Dolphins. Seeing the opportunity, one of the Dolphins quickly looked around the tank to make sure nobody was there, and swam up to the interface.
"Sorry, but are you a Domu Hach?"

Council Meeting
Interestingly enough, a new candidate for the Council has been elected prematurely due to their extreme popularity! It seems like his policies were very popular, and they were so persuasive that even those who didn't agree with the policies voted for him! A meeting has just begun as well, the first for the new council member.
"Alright everyone! Let's welcome our new member... Adam Agata!
Dmitri's statement caused everyone in the room to welcome Adam, shaking his hand and then greeting him in the traditional way for their religion and species. Two or three greeted him in the traditional way for a CoF member.
"Now, there is another reason for this meeting, of course. The Equiis Pact is just about ready to wipe out the Makudan. It is our duty to prevent as much loss of life as possible. That's why in the last meeting we decided to begin a diplomatic campaign to heat up the relationship between the two empires. However, things have only gotten worse. Both of them have placed units across their borders, and it seems like the only choice we have is to mobilize our own forces should a war break out. It is regrettable that we have to fight our brothers and sisters in the stars. Of course, this will be held to a vote. 2/3 of the council need to vote yes for it to pass."
The council was quite divided on the issue, and eventually it all came down to Adam, who had not spoken since the discussion began. If he voted yes, mobilization would begin. If we voted no, then bureaucracy would ensue as other politicians debated the issue.
"Well, what do you think, Adam?"

Seeder Threat (Ground)
The AIF forces simply bring everyone inside the shields, strengthening them using the shields on the tanks.A biological weapon would not be able to go through them, due to them being specifically tuned to keep the atmosphere out, for obvious reasons.

Research Sabotage
With the mysterious disappearance of Dark Energy research data, the AIF has tightened it's computer security. Of course, knowing how completely worthless their computing systems are compared to that of the other nations, they have ordered that all research data be printed out and put into good old filing cabinets. Because you can't hack into filing cabinets. You can get laughed at for having them though. Strangely enough, the AIF has kept the original files still on the computer system, apparently because they just don't care who finds out about the new particle.

Consultation
"Oh, there's probably an Equiis Pact spy looking over my shoulder right now. Ever since Kepler 22 and the surrounding systems declared independence tensions have been high. We don't actually care about the whole thing anymore, but we think they still hate us over some things we said earlier. Anyways, due to our policies I can;t actually reveal weaknesses in their technology, but I can tell you some of their capabilities. Their weaponry is presumably updated with Draconian tech-you should have seen that stuff at work-and their ship drives are considerably faster than ours. They control quite a bit of former Draconian space, and could very well have the advantage of numbers. I should note that your actions are found morally repulsive by our people, but what I have told you can't do much harm. Of course, I am obligated to request that you bring this war to an end as soon as possible. We don't want to get involved and if the war goes on for too long either you or the Equiis Pact will force us to assist int he war effort or be conquered. Before I end this transmission, I need to apologize to all the Equiis Pact spies listening in on us. The Allied Interstellar Federation wishes no harm to your nation and would like to be left alone. Please don't kill us all, thanks."

diplomacy
The AIF has welcomed the Equiis Pact diplomats with open arms, and none of the people met by the diplomats appear to harbor any hard feelings against the Pact at all. It seems the AIF has gotten over it all, and all the AIF diplomats want to pursue better relations. Whether they actually like the Equiis Pact or if they just know that without them they'll all be dead soon is unclear.
