1608 AP (After planet fall), New Tollan, Galaxy 9016
A red haired woman in an all-white robe was facing a man who was wearing a light grey jump suit with dark grey armor plates all around his body in front of a ship that is four kilometers long 290 meters high and 410 meters wide. The woman started with "Commander Dread, on behalf of the New Tollan Council, I bid you greetings and welcome you to our new home."
"Thank you, Councilor Anya. But I am afraid I must report that this is the last sleeper colony ship to arrive." He said with a sad tone
"It matters not. Already nine hundred ninety nine have arrived giving us a population of around 500 million. The construction of the shipyards and space stations around our ten colonies are almost complete and the infrastructure on our Colonies is already complete. You can thank the construction drones for that. In only two days we can wake up everyone and start a new life here without an extremely isolationistic government."
"Yes. I have read the reports sent to me via subspace. I must admit I was against the idea of using these construction drones, but it seems it was a good idea after all. Councilor I wish to seek permission to order the construction of a fleet of small exploration vessels."
"I am sorry commander… you are too late. We have already commissioned a Navy and many exploration vessels. Currently we have 100 frigates, 60 Cruisers, 20 Attack Drone Carriers, and almost 30 Battleships, and quite a few of the new survey Exploration and salvage ships or SESVs for short. All in all, it would probably only take 10,000 to 5,000 men and women to man the vessels and I am confident our Air Force and Army will be increased from a mere security force to an actual ground based military."
"Hmmm yes. Home world always said that no one could or would attack us due to our technological superiority. It always rubbed me the wrong way that we never had an actual military."
"Yes. Most people who came along this… Expedition… wanted to escape the old arrogant government or simply start a new life. I guess that the old government wanted to get rid of us and funded this expedition."
"I hold no grudges against the old government, but they really were a bunch of arrogant pricks with a huge ego."
"You can say that a hundred times. Can you believe it there was a political party around fifty years back, they literally wanted to implement the old government's policies!"
"What?! What happened to them?"
"The New Tollan Council decided to execute them"
"What?!"
"Yes. And that's how no one ever recommends isolationist policies and I mean 93% of everyone voted for their execution so it's all good."
"Yeah but still, that's a bit hardcore, especially for us."
"Well the top side is their hasn't been a single criminal misconduct since then"
"I guess that's good."
"Okay… well good day to you sir."
"No, good day to YOU ma'am"
After they finished their chit chat Dread and Anya both departed, Anya to the New Tollan council's capital world of New Tollan and Dread to the nearest open restaurant to get some planet made food
Two years later…
Fleet Commander Dread was enjoying the beautiful view that was space, he was enjoying the void and its stars as it hang their doing absolutely nothing but existing. It was breath taking… that was until his assistant called in and informed him of a meeting with the New Tollan Council. Obviously he made his way to them using the new rip off version of The Asgard Transporters dubbed The Tollan Transporter, 'Yup Total rip off' thought Dread to himself, as he beamed down to New Tollan from his fleet above in a crystalized whine .
Since Fleet Commander Dread was the fifth highest ranking official in the Tollan Navy, he had access to such classified technologies that are still being developed for civilian usage but are available for usage by the Tollan Military. It's not that the Tollan people don't know that the Military has Transporters and they not, no the Civilian population knows and is quite honestly thrilled for when the Tollan Transporters becomes publicly available.
When the Fleet Commander arrived on the planet he was greeted by a magnificent city and a large statue of a Sleeper ship that arrived to Galaxy 9016, or as most people call it the New Hope Galaxy, he continued past the statue to the large dome shaped Council building. Once he entered it he was searched by the new Council security Department (CSD) and was let loose into the building. Fleet Commander Dread was actually amused to see the New Tollan Council or Just the Tollan Council arguing with each other.
That was until he entered and they slowly stopped until no one from the seven Councilors was arguing. After an awkward moment of silence, until High Councilor Anya broke it by saying "Good afternoon Fleet Commander"
"Thank you High Councilor"
"We have summoned you here to discuss our latest finds in deep space. And since you are in command of the New Tollan Council's Exploration fleet, we thought it would be more appropriate for you to be in command of the investigations."
"Thank you High Councilor, I believe I will be investigating the Huge Fork like alien super structure?"
"Yes Fleet Commander. You will take your fleet and investigate it. Once done so dismantle the Device or move it away from our colony world of Terra Nova (1)."
"Ahh yes, Terra Nova. I heard they have beautiful mountain ranges. Is there anything else I can help with?"
"Actually yes. We would like you to take a small Battlegroup with you just in-Case. You can never know. Maybe we will find the equivalent of the Goa'uld in this galaxy, one wrong move and we would be fighting for our lives. We may never know"
"That is true indeed."
After the meeting was concluded, The Fleet Commander left the Council Chambers and headed for the Transporter Authorized zone, which was near the Statue of Remembrance. Once he arrived the almost musical sound of the Tollan Transporter could be heard and he found himself on the bridge of his flagship the Dis-Class Battleship (2) The Orion. As soon as he was on board he ordered his pilot to enter hyperspace and not a moment later the large Screen that sat on the front wall of the bridge changed from showing the stars outside to showing the hyperspace tunnel opening and it moving in it.
20 Lys from Terra Nova…
The Small Fleet of Victory-Class Frigates (3) with Alpha-Seven-Class Cruisers (4) and a Dis Class Battleship. But even the Dis-Class Battleship is dwarfed in size by the gigantic object in front of them. But they were not alone there was a Tollan Narm-Class (5) Survey, Exploration and Salvage vessel Forward onto Dawn already there.
They were hailed by the Forward onto Dawn and obviously Dread answered The Screen in front of the ship lit up to reveal a man in a scientist outfit and with greying hair. The man said "Greetings, I am Commander Jonathan Archer of the SESV Froward onto Dawn, Who are you if I am ask so nicely?"
"I am Fleet Commander Dread of the Tollan Exploration Fleet, High Command believes this object to be an interstellar transporter."
"So it's a Stargate in space then?"
"In space and for larger ships"
"Okaaay. Who build it?"
"Oh I know gigantic two kilometer tall machines hell bent on destroying everyone out there" said Dread with a sarcastic tone
"Yeah right." Replied Archer with an amused smile
"Anywho, we are to activate it and pass through it to see where it leads us to."
"Yeah well good luck with that. We have tried everything from trying to find a physical switch to attempting to hack it"
"Did you try sending it a communications signal?"
"What? Why?"
"Oh I don't know. Maybe it cats like door you have to send it a signal to open."
"Uh. Shit, well we will try it now. Standby"
Not moments after the declaration the device seems to have started to power up and its rings in the middle of the fork like structure seem to have started to turn. It didn't take long for The Forward onto Dawn and the other 30 ships of the combined exploration and battle fleet to be involuntarily pulled into the device and then be 'shot' out from a different Fork shaped device.
As soon as they arrived Fleet Commander Dread ordered all ships to engage the new Phase Cloaks (6) and the scan the system. His order proved to be un-necessary as they only picked up a world populated by Small amounts of humans, probably spread by an Alterran ship that passed by here and space debris of what appeared to have been a spaceship.
Obviously intrigued by the Debris the Small Flotilla moved to intercept. When they arrived first thing they did was scan for a storage device, and there seems to be a damaged black box. A Primitive albite a though design after hours of trying to download the information on the black box. The Flotilla was shocked to see what was on it
"This is Captain Anderson of the Human Remnant to attacking alien fleet. Please stop att-(static)- immediately. We are a sleeper ship sent from our dying Ho-(static)-. Please- Arrghh"
Codex
Colony World of Terra Nova: One of the Newer Tollan Colonies raising their total colony count to twenty. It is said to have some of the most beautiful Mountain landscapes in all of Tollan space. Not only does it serve as a resupplying post but is also housing a large shipyard with future expansions in mind Terra nova was going to be made into the regional Capitol.
The Dis-Class Battleship: Standing at 2.3 KMs long, 300 Meters high and 200 meters wide, it is longer than an Apophis-Class Mothership and equipped with the Most Advanced Weaponry such as Drone Fighters and Ion Cannons. Although deemed in-effective against larger capital ships, missiles are also deployed on the Dis-Class Battleship for Anti-Missile and Anti-Fighter support.
Victory-class frigate: This small 180 Meter long vessel is initially designed to be a Stealth ship but was redesigned to become a common frigate used in strike and run attacks. Like every Tollan ship it has a Ship-wide phase device and a Phase-Cloak. It is equipped with Tollan Ion Cannons and later on be refitted with ten Missile launch tubes for Anti-Fighter/Missile defense.
Alpha-Seven-Class Cruisers: These 700 Meter long ships are the current backbone of the Tollan Space Navy, Equipped with the standard ship armaments and defenses. Unlike other Tollan ships this vessel doesn't house any type of Fighter/Attack Drones whatsoever and prefer to have more Ion Cannon emplacements.
Narm-Class Survey, Exploration and Salvage vessel: This multi-functional 230 Meter long scientific vessel was created to satisfy the New Tollan Council's desire to explore space. And even after almost 200 years of service SESVs are still a common sight throughout Tollan space investigating planetoids and star systems searching for anything that may interest them.
Phase Cloaks: Finished just last year, by renown Doctor Henry Markus, It combines the normal Tollan phase device and shifts the wearer to another dimension while still being able to scan and see into the original dimension. This proved advantageous against a merciless and warmongering known as he Turians.
