CHATTY: "Apologies but I haven't heard of Ticardian Colony, where is it?" Axina smiles.
"Ah, our colony is located in Kappa Domini system. At the edge of the current Niger Sector. Well, our central administrative colony, that is, for we have several other colonies, in neighbouring Eritheus Sector, and few others beyond current Federal space. Once upon a time we were foremost of colonies, but then EXO-Lumina took over and the war happened. We've had plenty of time to expand during those two hundred years, and now Federal government wants us in."
"They're trying to recover lost territories, is that what you're saying?" She lets out a hum.
"Well, you know, it is more about our resources and planetary bodies that can be exploited for resources. The Federation is of course only very slowly restoring itself after this terrible dark age and subsequent war. It will take time, resources and space to expand, all which we have in abundance."
"You do not seem very satisfied with the prospect." Axina takes a sip, and considers her words.
"You see, it's been almost two hundred years. Our grandparents and their grandparents were on their own, fending against the corpos and pirates. They did good to secure our space and preserve the peace there, and feel entitled to independence and resources our current government is willing to pass over to the Federation. So of course there's discontent amongst some of the populace. Upon re-establishing contact three years ago, our leaders decided to host a plebiscite, and the results were clear: we will be joining the Federation. You can't argue with over eighty percent of population, after all." She pauses, and takes a sip.
