The Fog Star Kingdom Systems Alliance was no more, it was replaced by several quite different governments:
The Big Three:
Cerberus, a Pro Human culture group among the Fog
Sirens, the Mental Model culture group among the Fog
Admiralty Code, the original Fog group that once led the FSKSA
The Azur Lane:
Eagle Union, the Military culture group among the Fog.
Royal Fleet, the Aristocratic culture group among the Fog.
The Crimson Axis:
Sakura Empire, the Youkai culture group among the Fog.
Iron Blood, the Huntress culture group among the Fog.
Iris Orthodoxy:
Iris Libre, the Liberty culture group among the Fog.
Vischya Dominion, the Sisterhood culture group among the Fog.
The Borderlands:
Northern Parliament, the community culture group among the Fog.
Dragon Empory, the business culture group among the Fog.
Sardegna Empire, the family culture group among the Fog.
So far nothing serious had happened between these new nations, but the Admirality Code did preach about evolution,
so whatever happens: The Fog is Spreading!
The Sol System was home to the Big Three:
Earth belongs to the Admiralty Code Mars belongs to Cerberus Venus belongs to the Sirens
As the only Star System owned by three separate factions, not to mention the most powerful three of the Fog. Sol was considered the Capital Star System of the Fog by most non Fog, except the Quarians of course.
Nishikyo had become the Capital of the Mist Star Kingdom, a Quarian-Fog venture.
Tau Ceti was the Capital of the Eagle Union, Arcturus on the other hand was the Royal Navy Capital.
Alpha Centauri was the Sakura Empire Capital, while Euler was the Iron Blood Capital.
Between the Viper Nebula and the Petra Nebula was a strange mixed Fog group calling themselves the Nebula Systems Aliance. -These are the Kancolle inspired Fog
Hades Gamma hosted the small nations of the Northern Parliament, Dragon Empory and the Sardegna Empire. But two systems did belong to the Admiralty Code.
The Voyager Cluster belonged to the Sirens, and Attican beta belonged to Cerberus.
The Maroon Sea had a system for each of the Big Three
Gemini Sigma had a system each for Iris Libre and Vischya Dominion
The borders of what was once one Nation were now divided between each Nations, and many were stupid enough to try and test their might against these small but powerful splintered parts of the once mighty FSKSA.
The Sol System was considered neutral zone, to prevent damage to the three habitable worlds in the System. Mars had been terraformed first, and Venus had just finished terraforming when first contact was established with the Quarians.
Quarian modifications made by the Fog:
-Level 1: Repaired immune system
-Level 2: Cybernization of 40% of the body
-Level 3: Mental Model infusion
-Level 4: Full Mental Model
All Quarians within Fog space had undergone at least Level 1, 10% or so went with Level 2. Only Sira went to Level 3,
and her daughter Tali was interested in going even further.
New features for the Fog: Hybridization. This means to take ship based weapons as human sized weapons for outside ship combat, these weapons are downgraded to 1/10 of their power as long as they are linked to the ship they are based on. Outside ship range, the weapons fall to 1/25 power of their ship counterparts and have to be sustained by the Mental Models own power core.
Another way to go at it is just to use basic versions of the weapons, which would do less damage but eat a lot less energy as well. The Kancolle way is like that, while the rest are either using both or only the high powered versions.
So with three separate franchises that has Kantai Otome, we will have a lot of people with the same name for starters.
Will this signal the end of the Batarian Hegemony, as they are almost totally surrounded by the Fog?
Huw much will the Turians let the Fog eat out of their territory, what about the rest of the Galaxy?
There is but one way to find out: Read the next Chapters of the Story!
Thank you for reading this explanatory exposition so far, just remember that this is the 'Chapter' to tie in both The Fog is Rising and The Fog Disperses together. So, if you have not read The Fog is Rising you should do that first before reading this Story.
The last Story had little to do with Aria or Wrex, sorry about that. This Story however might have a bit more to do with these two.
So, Genophage. How will the Fog tackle that one? How long before the Galaxy will notice that Mental Models are A.I.
or A.I.-Human Hybrids?
As we saw in the last Story, The Reapers woke up a bit earlier than in ME. How will that impact on Galactic events?
Review if you want, even if this is just the calm before the storm that is the actual story.
