While the Valley of Peace was waking up, a modern metropolis is lighting up the night sky on the other side of the planet. A few decades after the events of SKYRIM, Atlanteans settled on Tamriel. At first, the natives were suspicious because the Atlanteans had far superior technology that put the Dwemer to shame, such as ships capable of faster than light travel, computers, horse-less carraiges (Automobiles, cars, trucks), and instant long distance communication (Wire-less radio network). The natives thought the Atlanteans would suffer the same fate as the dwemer, but they were wrong. Within a few years, most of the cities in Skyrim started to have modern skyscrapers. By the time of the Robloxian-Atlantean War, the major cities of Tamriel (excluding the Summer Isle) were connected to one another by Atlantean built motorways, similar to the U.S. Interstate system or the Japanese expressway system. During the war, the Robloxians attempted to detenate an arcane fusion bomb in the middle of Skyrim. An arcane fusion bomb is a weapon of mass destruction capable of destroying an area the size of western Europe. The Atlanteans managed to stop the bomb by designating Chinaria a capital planet, and the Galactic Federation has a rule against the use of weapons of mass destruction on capital planets, resulting in the Robloxians disarming the bomb by removing the parts that give it that huge explosion. The bomb still detenated, but with an explosion as strong as a few sticks of dynomite.
Today, Tamriel is a major hub for economic and military activity. At the heart of Tamriel is Imperial City, Chinaria's capital. Imperial City is split into two major areas: Old Imperial City, and New Imperial City. Old Imperial City is the part that has been around since the first Empire. New Imperial City completely surrounds Old Imperial City, and was built shortly before the Robloxian-Atlantean War. Imperial City is well known for it's impressive skyline, wich consists of 173 skyscrapers, 174 if you count White Gold Tower. Among the skyscrapers is the Tiber Septim Tower, a modern 130 story skyscraper, and the headquarters for the United Chinarian Armed Forces. The UCAF is part of the Atlantis Armed Core, witch is part of the Trigon United Military, a part of the Galactic Federation. The UCAF is divided into special divisions that operate in different locations. The divisions are designated by continent. The Tamriel Division operates within Tamriel, with numerous bases scattered across the continent. The Aldmeris Division operates on the continent of Aldmeris. Their fortifications include an energon tower to the north of Gongmen City, a communications array on the southern edge of the Valley of Peace, and a radar station just to the east of Chorh-Gom Prison. There are a few other divisions of the UCAF, but we are focusing on the Tamriel Division. The UCAF Tamriel Division is based in the same building the UCAF is headquartered in (Tiber Septim Tower).
"It is now 7:00 PM, and the system is clear." said a nord on the 127th floor of the Tiber Septim Tower. The nord, named Kevin, works in the First Response Unit. The First Response Unit monitors Tamriel and the surrounding area for enemy activity. When something amiss goes on, these guys alert the rest of the division. Kevin is currently working the night shift, keeping an eye on unit movements within Tamriel, such as an armed convoy transporting several important people to Solitude. "Why did I choose the night shift?" mumbled Kevin as he tapped his fingers on his desk. Infront of him, the computer screen is showing a road map of Skyrim, with the convoy marked with a cyan arrow. On the map, the arrow representing the convoy is traveling on a blue road. Roads that are blue on the map are motorways, high speed grade separated roads that connect all of Tamriel's major cities together, with the exception of Summer Isle. The convoy is traveling on the M45 motorway, a major north-south motorway the goes from coast to coast. The northern terminus of the M45 is in Solitude, at a T-junction with M98. Kevin looks out the window, his office space is on the north side of the tower, providing him with spectacular views of the Imperial City skyline. On clear days, its possible to see the Throat of the World from the Tiber Septim Tower. Because of the lights from the city, only a small amount of stars are visable in the night sky. Looking below, the city streets were crowded as usual. As Kevin got up to get a drink from the nearby vending machine, a notice popped up on the computer screen. "Proximity sensors 2, 3, and 5 have been tripped." said the message. Within moments, the entire floor was abuz with activity. Within 30 seconds of the notice, the UCAF was put on high alert. Large warships went to where the sensors were tripped, loaded with trigger-happy soldiers wanting to kill whatever was intruding the system. At the same time, the EBAS (Emergancy Broadcast and Alert System) sent out advisories to the public. Within minutes of the notice, the motorways were swarming with armed military vehicles, ranging from modified camper vans, to state-of-the-art all-terrain military jeeps. Tripping the proximity sensors is like kicking the ant hill, it basicaly causes the armed forces to swarm. "Finally, some real action." said Kevin as he looked at the computer. The map was swarming with UCAF troops. Kevin put his hand on the screen, his fingers on the map. He moved his hand to the left, causing the map to pan. He could see UCAF units swarming all across Tamriel. Putting his hand on the top of the map, he push it to the left, the map shrinking in the process. He then touched an icon at the bottom of the screen, bringing up a radar window. Going through the settings, Kevin brought up a live view of proximity sensors 2, 3, 4, and 5. Proximity sensor 4 has yet to be tripped, but he brought up the live view just incase. On the radar for proximity sensor 2, several large green object along with a slew of smaller green objects could be seen. It was the same for the rest of the sensors, except proximity sensor 4. "The'rye trying to zerg rush the system!" yelled a redgaurd commando over the radio. "This is the third time this week." said a vampire lord from across the room. A notice popped up, and proximity sensor 4 was tripped. "Oh crap, they are bringing in the heavy artilary!" yelled an atlantean over the radio. "Execute defensive strategy ALPHA 12! I repeat, execute defensive strategy ALPHA 12!" yelled an argonian general over the radio. The radar for proximity sensor 4 showed several large green blips forming a defensive pattern around a massive green blip.
At proximity sensor 4, several Radika ships came out of hyperwarp, including a capital ship. "We are now approaching the objective, have all weapons at the ready!" yelled a commander over the intercome for the capital ship. The Radikan capital ship looks like an arrow from skyrim, with massive wings jutting out from the mid section. The wings are tipped with massive cannons, capable of tearing apart most fleets. Several smaller warships surrounds the capital ship, the warships look just like Sepertists warships, with the Radika's characteristic green glow. Infront of them, a freight ship tries to flee, only to get gunned down and captured.
