2541: Awfully Crowded in My Sky

As the UPE maintained a chilly tension with the Xi’An near Terra in the ‘East,’ we were still unchallenged in the systems to the ‘West’ of Earth. That was about to change.

The Tevarin were about a hundred years behind humans technologically. They were just starting to journey out from their homeworld of Kaleeth. The Tevarin adhered to a rigid warrior ethos, honoring duty and fealty as virtues. They were not a bloodthirsty species, they simply honored the art of combat.

System Assessment: On Elysium IV there is an indigenous species calling themselves the Tevarin. Though sentient and intelligent, they have not evolved to our level technologically. Recommend that we establish contact and bring them into the UPE. It is a wonderful opportunity to elevate the species into the modern era. The UPE reached out to the Tevarin. They weren’t interested in establishing diplomatic relations or even our technology. They were interested in our systems. So the first interspecies war began as most wars begin, over territory.

As the Tevarin War began to swell, the military feared that the conflict in the West might embolden a Xi’An attack in the East and instituted a Draft. Fortunately, a young and ambitious officer, Ivar Messer, captured public attention when he distinguished himself in the Battle of Idris IV. The UPE quickly realized this and turned Messer into the face of the Tevarin War.

Da die UPE eine kühle Spannung mit dem Xi'An in der Nähe von Terra im Osten aufrechterhielt, waren wir in den Systemen zum Westen der Erde noch unangefochten. Das sollte sich ändern.

Die Tevarin waren technologisch etwa hundert Jahre hinter den Menschen zurück. Sie begannen gerade erst, sich von ihrer Heimatwelt Kaleeth zu entfernen. Die Tevarin hielten an einem starren Kriegerethos fest und ehrten Pflicht und Lehnstreue als Tugenden. Sie waren keine blutrünstige Spezies, sie ehrten einfach die Kunst des Kampfes.

Systembewertung: Auf Elysium IV gibt es eine einheimische Art, die sich Tevarin nennt. Obwohl sie empfindsam und intelligent sind, haben sie sich technologisch nicht auf unser Niveau entwickelt. Empfehlen Sie, dass wir Kontakt aufnehmen und sie in die UPE bringen. Es ist eine wunderbare Gelegenheit, die Art in die Neuzeit zu erheben.


Die UPE richtete sich an die Tevarin. Sie waren nicht daran interessiert, diplomatische Beziehungen oder gar unsere Technologie aufzubauen. Sie waren an unseren Systemen interessiert. So begann der erste Krieg zwischen den Arten, als die meisten Kriege begannen, über dem Territorium.

Als der Tevarin-Krieg zu schwellen begann, befürchtete das Militär, dass der Konflikt im Westen einen Xi'An-Angriff im Osten verstärken und einen Entwurf einleiten könnte. Glücklicherweise erregte ein junger und ehrgeiziger Offizier, Ivar Messer, öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit, als er sich in der Schlacht von Idris IV. hervorhob. Die UPE erkannte dies schnell und machte Messer zum Gesicht des Tevarin-Krieges.
