In an unceremonious manner, the Barasts accepted their trade. Crude, but they'd find a way how the small green plant balls would work. If it was a food source, it would have been very insulting as Barasts didn't eat plant material as per their restrictions. Not that they cared for the...

"We'll help out. But get too close and we'll resort to drastic measures. We don't like bothering with such trifles. Have some of our surplus. Now we hope you don't bother us again in the future." The parts would be traded in remotely. Barasts were shut in the towers, refusing to come out...

"What now?" The Barasts were getting annoyed. A robot was sent in their place. "Having trouble?" The robot was remote controlled and acted as the proxy. If the Icarusian got too close, they would warn with:"Keep your distance please. We don't take kindly to uninvited guests too." Barasts...

Just as the Barasts returned to the outposts, they got news of the current progress. "A spaceship for one and a drone for the latter. We know for sure who has the better first impression." First impressions are the last impressions to the Barasts in particular. Certainly for the Icarusians...

The Barast troopers trained the weapons on the spaceship, heavy and sniper included. With itchy trigger fingers about, they had no idea what would happen with a first contact. What doesn't help is that they are heavily militaristic and isolationist. War was brewing and iminent. "There's...

"WARNING! UNKNOWN ENTITY DETECTED! ASSUME HOSTILITY!" The officer blared over the radio. The sniper and spotter duo investigated from far distance. Using a variety of far-distance detection, they determined the body to be an alien ship, having the support and the assault at the ready to...

"Not my problem." One of the Barast troopers curtly stated. "If we don't stay on watch, then it'll become our problem. Last thing we want is the filthy and out of context polluting our space." A diligent trooper already admonished the curt soldier. "Cut the chatter you two fools! You're...
