In one of the far frontiers of Confederate space, a single cruiser was on patrol. It was the DCS Galahad, a newer warship that had been designed at the end of the Confederacy's most recent war, when they'd fought the HCA. The Galahad had a short service history, an experienced crew, and a long list of the most state of the art systems. It was a capital ship on one of the Confederacy's busiest border zones, and every day, they stopped hundreds of ships before allowing them through.
Suddenly, a ship appeared on sensors. "Lieutenant Allante! Contact on sensors! Not like the others. This vessel is unidentified."
"All hands, prepare for detainment procedures. Primary power to weapons, secondary to shields. Forget about the engines unless the unidentified ships run." For a moment, nothing happened. And then Allante added, "Let's move! The last time a strange ship popped up on the border, an entire L'Etiole Marine ship vanished."
The lieutenant smiled as the ship became suddenly active. Glancing in a reflective screen, she brushed a lock of dark brown hair out of her eyes, and prepared to send a message. Once the comm channel was ready, she said in an even tone, "Unidentified vessel, you have entered the territory of the Dothvalian Confederacy. I am Lieutenant Calista Allante of the L'Etiole Marine, the Confederate Star Navy, and this is the cruiser DCS Galahad. Please state your origin and your purpose in Confederate space."
