Domino
Warden of the Ice
Far out in the reaches of the Annaj system, Capital of the fringe lords, a lone Pallaeon mark-II made the transition from lightspeed. Alone it would be able to do more than flail against the inner system defenses as it died to their fire, but it was soon joined by many many more ships. Phoenix destoyers, Panther carriers, Nimix cruisers, even a few aging but modernized Imperial-II's. Pocket carriers, attack ships, and corvettes soon filled in the gaps between the capital ships in one large fleet that represented very nearly the full remaining fleet strength of the Black Suns. Also represented were a few of the Sith designs the Syndicate had gotten their hands on.
As threatening as the fleet's sudden appearance was however, their weapons stayed powered down and they made no move to approach. Instead they sent a transmission along the old diplomatic channels for the coalition. "Greetings Lady Varanin, at Barab you invoked an old treaty to come to our aid when none of our other allies would. We have now come to honor that bravery." The holographic projection of Domino extended her hand in invitation. "I would appreciate it if you would join with me and my officers for a private dinner this evening aboard our flagship 'Thus Unto Tyrants.' I believe you will find that we have much to discuss." Invitation sent, Domino's hologram faded away. There wasn't much left that the Syndicate could do these days, but by the goddess they would do right by their allies.
