A galaxy is made up of systems, so he is in the same system but leaving the system would not mean leaving the galaxy.
Return from the heavens, 1060
The time when the races of the planet realised that they were not abandoned by their gods. The Life ships were struck a major blow as the planet began to recover from the devastation of the plauge at a rapid rate. And the Alliance ws beginnng to grow even stronger, with the construction of The Ark.
The Alliance focused its entire power onto the work of the forge and further developing the cure. It's first action was to scavange the wreck of the ancient ship from Salmass ledgend, and were able to salvage a galactic map containing the nearby area and all the sectors on the way to a planet named "Earth" along with pices of a warp drive, however the drive was far too damaged to be used anymore. The other thing they did was to put a temporairy halt on the constructions and began building a large amount of mining bots, which began to generate reasources at an increadeble rate, and by the year 1069 they once again began to construct their armada, along with massive Ground to Space lasers which began to take pot shots at the Life ships, however, it seemed that the inner ring of the life ships was able to generate a force field, which proved completely impenitrable to even the most powerful GTS lasers, although the forming second ring suffered losses, it just kept on growing however.
The races meanwhile continued to recolinize the planet, but the plauge was every rampant and started to destroy the environment, then in the year 1071, whilst in the middle of constructing their ships, the bunker command was tolf to "Look to the sky, for a battle rages there." With this they turned their telescopes to the sky, and saw massive explosions as a fleet of strange sleek vessels assualted the Life Forge, and they were dealing catastrophic damage, however the alliance observers only saw the final twenty minutes of the battle, after which the attackers withdrew without a single casualty. Immediately after this the plauge came to a halt. The rejoice and mystery that followed was unprecidented, and many believed that this was a sign from the Ataqalaas, and the sudden regrowth further emphasised this thought, and so operatons on the fleet construction contunued.
Meanwhile the Vorglockie advanced a slight bit more, their organ that allowed for computor face controll, meant that the Vorglockie became smarter and smarter, and their knowledge for each Vorglockie was pinpoint detailed. Another thing that came around was the creation of the Pilot caste, whose reactions were far quicker than that of the average Vorglockie, and so quickly became the main fighter pilots for the Vorglockie fleets.
The Life ships began this time by building up their forces and developing technology, the Mariner colony grew even larger as the Life forge also grew increadebly, and the Life ships seemed to be going well, then they redirected the bio nano to destroy the ecosystem, and it did its job rather well. Then as the plauge was on the verge of wiping out the entire ecosystem, disaster struck the Vorglockie, the Life forge was attacked in what would be known as by the mariners as the Battle of the Heavens.
As the plauge was on the verge of total environmentl destruction, the Life forge was attacked by unknown vessels of sleek design, now the Life ships were no strangers to naval combat against unknown foes, but while most relied on either sheer firepower and duribility, or speed and manuverability, this fleet seemed the contain both. They tore into the Life ships, the shields of the Life forge proved no boon as the inner ring suffered heavy losses, the ships destroyed many Bio Nano Forges, and the Life ships seemed on the verge of total ahnihalation, when the fleet mysteriusly vanished as mysteriusly as it had arrived. In the wake of this the life ships were forced to rebuild their fleet, but found their plauge completely destroyed, and their assualts of redirected metiorites were destroyed by the alliance's GTS lasers's, and so by the end of these years the Life ships had two complete rings around the Life Forge, even though the prediction had been for all three rings to be finished.
They had forced her hand, the Life ships completely indiscriminante slaughter of the innocent had forced her to commit her fleet to battle, and the life ships had been utterly defeted, whilst they still lived, she hoped they had gotten the message. The alliance fleet was well underway now but she still felt that the fleet would be outmatched if they took on the Life ships fleet, let alone the Life Forge. The Vorglockei were the most independant of the races right now in the Alliance as the Salmass and Kel'nar were entirely commited to the alliance, she wondered how long that would last after they fought the Life ships, win or lose. Still the Life ships fate was in their own hands for now, as next time they crossed a line she would not be so held back.
