Dev Shadows of Atrisia

[Junko Ike]

"Witht he right applications we have been overdeveloping much more.. I know they have been working on improving the educational systems of Atrisia... Miyoung showed the power of advanced degrees and understanding.. and if we would be able to really develop it all we will be able to have some of the finest soldiers but also some of the smartest in the galaxy. Even art and entertainment wise since zeltros was taken over by the offworlder queen and all elections were suspended, industry ground to a halt and most of the peoples inhibitions suppressed we have been able to dominate holodramas and entertainment... thanks to a lot of them fleeing here."

The zeltrons and other species who had come here.. were proving highly effective.. they taught and trained and added to the growing capabilities. THey had improved mining thanks to the knowledge of the twi'leks and the zeltrons gave entertainment, food and holographic industries.. the mirialians added to their shipbuildings and the chiss who were there added to their militay might... it was an impressive collection and still there were some other species that came and joined them. "THey have bene most helpful and in a few generations if they continue the way they have been then they will be highly productive members of the Commonwealth.. we have worked hard to show the benefits of joining."

 

[Junko Ike]

"Aye that you have Nari... the Commonwealth has been showing it every chance given and more... that we are ignored by the AAlliance helps of course. THey do not care about us unless it is directly a benefit to them.. and they rarely enforce or come to the world itself. THeir senator hadn't even come to the world... it was questionable if they had even been born here... and still the Commonwealth itself endures and cares enough. We can present one or two smaller things though to the people." Junko said it and they would be able to check on more... there was always a senate session involving things that... they wouldn't care about in the long run.

"It looks like they are trying to do convince people giving all control to them is freedom. One amophous blob of worlds all with the same values, same things and the cultural differences that make them wonderful are gone." Nari said it aand well Junko afreed somewhat the Alliance liked making one issue on one planet carry over to all worlds whether or not if there were problems there. Hapes was well one of the biggest ones against the current senate bill.. they wanted to destroy a great deal and treated it like it wasn't personal.... SHe looked at Atrisia and well just lucky that they had never fallen into those older ways... somewhat men and women did a great deal of things differently.

 

[Junko Ike]

"Girls can beat boys but no women can beat a man" Junko heard Barca say it and the maandalorian surprised her.. not for saying it but because she knew the woman didn't believe it but much of the galaxy did... there were differences. Even among the warriors and to cast those aside. She knew many atrisians simply didn't care and well their males and females if anything looked beautiful which is what mattered. Plainness and ugliness were something much more looked down upon then what was between their legs and anyone could do anything... it was much better but she saw some of the arguements... she understood them and Hapes was allied with them in the past.

"We will see what happens.. likely the bill will pass... they will see it as importaant that everyone be the same rather then different. The Consortium will be unlikely to care or will be divided since the last few decades haave been outsiders trying to make kings and princeses of the hapans... the commonwealth will endure because we simply avoid most of the galaxy and only avoid allowing offworlders with no stake in the Commonwealth into positions of power. Other planets will have to decide but most will likely capitulate to the senate. Not out of fear but because it is what they want and their people will be made to accept the whims of the senators."

 

[Junko Ike]

Nari waas looking at her and gave a nod. "Most will, Atrisia does the minimal requirement as we need to. It keeps problems away from us and lets us work on all of our projects." She grinned to that.. she was the captain of the guard and an old friend but she was also the one who was always there with Junko in the planning stages.. she was there with her when she traveled and there when she was planning something crazy... like her projects to overdevelop some of their different technologies to the limits or an area few others would be able to really touch. The fabricators getting the conversion bubbles and other capabilities.

"My projects benefit us all and they improve Atrisia in the long run.. we have Matsu and Sasori as well as Atrisian united which benefits everything greatly. We have more as well.. all of the refugees bring their talents to aid us in these causes we have." She said it and offered a grin though as she placed a hand on Nari's shoulder and their projects were special in many cases.. better yet they had some impressive things still to come if everything went well... specifically if they could continue to expand the Commonwealth.. if they could manage it and develop newer more effecient hypergates they could have colonies in far flung regions outside of other governments.

 

[Junko Ike]

"Your projects princess, benefit many things at once... your family which is galactic reaching not just on Atrisia... All of Atrisia and yourself. Shoma is the heir to the emperor and beloved but he is also diplomatic and meeting with people in the alliance and galaxy at laarge. You spend your time here with us even though you are a jedi, you have just as much duty to the order and yet you choose to dedicate yourself to the people of this world." Nari said it and the others around her aagreed with nods of their head. "None of this is a bad thing.. you have helped grow the Wukong out of the old inquisition, given Atrisian force users a place to go and be trained that they can be steadfast and serve with honor here."

Junko looked at her and the others with a nod. This early morning run and exercise had turnedd into well a nice talk and planning session.. Atrisia had a lot more and she could run across the entire island itself. THey would be abel to if they were lucky and smart design some of the better instances here as her palace and island were not special and yet they were being given plenty of care. From layering the defenses to some of the research labs and testing facilities.. to the soldiers that were on the island itself. SHe stil had more and if they could manage it oh she had ideas of how to build other facilities on the island.. her palace on Shri-Tal had been given an overhaul to mirror this one.

 

[Junko Ike]

"The force users on Atrisia have a choice now.. more then that they have the ability to bring honor to their families instead of being a place of shame... that the emperor wants them to be more involved does help... they are our own homegrown group." SHe said it and the Wukong were still growing and settling into their own ideas... the jedi temples within Commonwealth space were manned by them and Arisen... normal jedi came and went to them as well of course. "The Inquisition was misguided and made force users hated and feared... a powerful means of control though and now they have become the dreamguard who protect the people from offworlders.... Old positions doing new jobs."

That was a strong sentiment for them and she would be able to use it.. the Wukmong temple here on the island was to serve additional purposes as well. Theyy had with Sasori developed the anchorpoints and the shield islands. Min's island she was fashioning like a jedi temple which was beautiful.. she wanted to be able to have a crystal farm there for all of them to see and be able to reach into. THey had even managed to transplant some of the kyberr trees from the Agora and well they were studying the strain of flora to see if it could be viable on other worlds or in other locations. The unique properties of the crystal forest were beautiful.

 

[Junko Ike]

"New jobs are important and we have much more to do.. with Miyoung especially we have thousands of new fields of study. If we can be some of the leading in envinronmental and dimensional engineering we can continue to dominate most planets in the galaxy. We have already worked towards eliminating hunger, sickness and poverty within our borders. We can house trillions of people as it stands and do not have to build up. The thousand kilometers of crust between here and Chitei has allowed for a great deal of cities to expand for mor epopulations... and below the surface they are protected from attacks as we can seal them off if someone tries."

Nari looked at her and gave a nod to that. "We have been working on the tunnel here into it. We have a good one and it is stable for the most part. The subterrainian facilities of the island help a great deal as well when we are working on more of it and the lowest levels of the inner city for you has just expanded its dome. Now they have more streets connecting to the other islands and the mainland for rapid transit." Junko had a nod for that.. they were working on the surface here but underneath the island was still being worked on. Tens of thousands of people living down there and able to move between surface or lower levels but all of the research labs and better sections as the island was artificial made it easier.

 

[Junko Ike]

"The lower sections of the islands are also facing some small problems." Nari looked up and over as Miyoung was there. THe handmaiden speaking. "Given the relative size of the island, the lower area and how much space is needed for the technical parts at the moment. WE will eventually run out of space so we do not compromise structural integrity." Junko looked at her and the small handmaiden seemed to have a plan for that more so she usually provided much more in terms of analysis. "DO you have a suggestion Miyoung?" SHe was curious about it and well Miyoung grinned there in her workout gear as she was looking over the plans.

"I do, since we have been upgrading and working on it. We reinforce the lifts down into the crust of the planet. In this case it would give up these heavy frames that hold up the island. Artificial as it may be with the proper reinforcement they could support it even if the oceans boil away. We'll spread them out with the shield islands and each one will reinforce each other with materia for it to self repair and maintain itself. WIth the right applications of struts we can also make it a latticework down there where it will reinforce itself sharing the heavier loads. With droids designated to work down there and fisheries we can even have the depths of the ocean ours for abundent sea life."

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko looked at it and the plaan that they could have with it... reinforcing the island so it used both its repulsors and support struts designed for heavier loads... was smart. A good backup plan. THat the struts would be large enough to house lifts to chitei and have levels in them as well as reactors, cloning facilities and other things needed to properly terraform or replenish from fishing was also a benefit. THe deeper one went in the ocean the larger some of the fish should be so having some of the larger fish that are considered non hostile and woudln't try and attack would be beneficial. They would still go outside of the hydrostatic shielding which would allow the ocean predators to feed.

"That would be benefiical to us and we can work on more things to fix it up. These support struts can be widened for load barring and with them a lattice work while we use the dimensional engineering chambers for emergency supplies, reactors and more systems themselves. We should be able to do a lot more and should the worse happen it will be able to survive and maintain itself. If we do islands like this across Atrisia with the right systems to produce water we might actually be able to reverse climate dangers if the seas were ever boiled away or real danger come." Junko tapped her chin planning and this was something the engineering teams would have tow ork at and plan.

 

[Junko Ike]

Miyoung was looking at her and offered a nod. "IF the seas were boiled away we might have a lot more problems but engineering wise Atrisia is strong.. we have been reinforcing many of the cities to be able to withstand things with Kazue stone and shielding. The newer self repairing microdroids and matter converters will allow the cities and structures.. even all of our equipmnent to barring a really powerful intervention last hundreds of thousands of years after us. IN the event whatever happened to the ancient atrisians happened again or in a similar way. We wouldn't have to rebuild we would have two generations of collection knowledge over billions of years and engineering."

Junko thought about that and well the idea that they could be wiped away wa always there... but it seemed so rare.... which was why they took interest in preservation. Atrisiaa would endure, its people would endure and not be scattered to thecosmic winds as it were. If they were skilled enough they would be able to do a lot more as preservaation and dimensional engineering was being used in more and more aspects so if they were smart they would be able to develop their hypergate technologies, develop their engineering technologies and be able to literally have a closed system of pocket dimensions with hypergates interconnecting them and planets.

 

[Junko Ike]

She knew it was not entirely possible but if they could strengthen the dyson stations, position them and automate them so it would be several layers of stations creating a heavy lattice work of planetary shielding... around all of the commonwealths area and regions. A feat that could take centuries but it would allow them to effectively isolate themselves from others in the galaxy. THey would have each of the worlds converted and functioning like Atrisia... all of the moons and planets in each system... It would be ideal and from the stations allow them to develop and artificially create a heavy nebula which would enclose and close off the area of space.

Junko knew the possibility fo all of this but there was always the chance and if your could further expand and eliminate the need for heavier ship based travel. Hypergating between the worlds with more nad more able to be moved... they could do a lot converting all of those resources towards expansion.. though eventually they would likely become lax compared to how they were now.. a system wide nebula that prevented others from entering and going to the worlds aalong with a dyson shielding system around them. It would likely make them targets for rumors and possibly legends but she was fine with that.. if it all went well enough they would be the last dominent group in the galaxy.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko wasn't being morbid in most cases, she didn't expect things to haappen for a long time... they were merely planting the chances for it and working to establish the means... with the new medical implants they were fixing defects, sicknesses and allowing Atrisians to live for longer which meant they would have the chance for longer lives and larger families... hundreds of generations if they did it well enough and with the gene manipulation of the biogel it would eventually become genetic the modifications a natural thing and the biogel further enhancing that. THey would have to improve upon it more and more but eventually they might be able to get Atrisians back to the ancient Atrisians.

There was much more work being done as well if they could manage it. WIth all of the forces here cared for it was time to return to the palace and they started to. Running along the pathway as the open area gave way againt ot the forest and then mountain and rocks. The signs of their natural and artificial defenses appearing while shielding gates were being built and installed for the rock itself. A better way to handle it and isolate, they would need to work on something that adapted to stun aand disable if they could like the esscilion grids within the ships. THey could use it along with the scythes which were being installed and able to defend them as well.

 

[Junko Ike]

The pathway back went to the other end of the palace itself.. the garden wasn't there it was instead the hanger and sections of the mountain that they had built the larger barracks into. Her soldiers able to set up smaller staging areas so they would be able to fight in the palace or around the gardens quickly and easily. Right now adjusting the plates that were used for the grass and trees to allow gun turrets to assemble out of the ground from smaller pillboxes... what they were working on for a newer portable ablative turret. It would let them literally establish one anywhere for anti infantry, armor or even starfighters if they built it correctly.

JUnko continued and all of them were going. THe soldiers and technicians who were there preparing it as the barracks had one of the better views of the main gates. With a clear sight line that could be used and with hardlight walls that could be activated to block off the other side of the garden it would filter any aattackers towards the waiting turrets which had less cover in front of them. The wide opened area designed to hold soldiers and allow vehicles to be brought out or the speeders. Their work on the palace exterior reinforcing with the ablative walls that could deploy over walls and windows to protect it and the shields over the doors.

 

[Junko Ike]

THey were also working on the sensors... designing a perfect net would be hard. The sensors no matter what could always be beaten if one wanted to do it and she knew it... but that didn't mean you couldn't make them work for it. In this case from heat to even ones for gravity and speeds that could be measured. Biological as there were some things that could not be detected and needed to be visual. She continued through the area and around the palace. Coming to the main area that was a walk way dividing into two paths one towards the hanger and one towards the gardens. The massive gate there with its gemstones and thick metal wood.

She was able to go with the others into the town and some handmaidens broke off to attend to duties.. others with her and a few guards as Nari stayed there. The people in the town were just waking up while the smells in the early morning of breads being baked were there. pastries for the morning being put out with caf and tea that was being steeped for everyone around them. Junko moved as the stones were cleaned by the droids giving way to the walls of the outer homes... a district of houses for the officials within the court and there were stores. Considered the high end markets here but it was all good as it opened into the town proper and spread out.

 

[Junko Ike]

SHe was looking at areas where they were improving and developing... nothing ever really ended after all and the town had layers of buildings when it spread out. The first level being homes and above that but back as it ascended up the cliffs was another. The modular nature of the living modules meant they could stack them several high while giving some walkways and lifts... the people would all be able to have their own homes... their own places. WIth the ability to make food for themselves and everything else thery would need each had a storefront or could sell to the collection droids and receive more then enough credits to live.

She looked at the higher levels of it and they were no different but the hanging gardens of the town were beauiful with trees and fruits of every type growing. Droids going around and maintaining them... on the lower level the streets moved into carved waterways that snaked around and made a path for them to see as it went further and further. The gates aand watergardens of the detached palace was there for all to be able to see. From the detached palace she was able to see the central gatherng area.. large enough for plenty of the people to be there and stalls for the marketplace. It was bustling now as the people were coming in and the sound of wares being sold.

 

[Junko Ike]

THe still early morning marketplace though welcomed her and the children who were up wanting to get the first of the pastries, the candies being made for taste testing in the morning. The waterways filled with early morning fishers before racers came... The ones moving through the streets, saw her and bowed quickly as she passed offering praises. Junko smiling to them while she posed a little or hugged some of the citizens. greeting them with warm regards and it was happy to see all of them. Families of her guards, attendants who worked in the palace or researchers who had come here to the island from their homes even though they didn't have to.

Junko moved through them and was coming down to one of the balconies overlooking the winding waterway. A boat with two fishermen there as below tens of thousands of fish swam in dozens of colors under the water. Their nets were filled as they spilled hundreds onto the floor of the boat... able to bring in the massive haul easily enough and with the fisheries churning out they would always have plenty fo fish to sustain the town. THe sound of livestock was off to the side as animals were kept with scent and sound nullifiers there to protect the peoples senses... farmers raising them as the stations could work for them and aviaries for the various birds around the town they could eat.

 

[Junko Ike]

She could see the tops of the canyon the village was built into.. the tips having shield projectors that would allow them to protect themselves and ineretial absorbers so impact from kinetic weapons would be lessened. The structural care of the rock and island there with a stronger framework to keep and maintain it where they would want to. Overhangs of roots and trees giving a beauty to most of what they had here. The sun was filtering through now and casting its loght over everything. Junko stood there as it came down and her golden brown hair glowing in the area as the breeze came though. Rustling it about to the side but the scents of fresh baked pastries was there on the wind.

Junko was able to see more and her nose was leading her towards it.. the beautiful stall that had been set up and there was a small belt of treats moving around as they were cooked and coated with a sugary glaze and slowly it spread over it. Heating itself and then when it would cool it would make a shell that could coat it. There were other things as the one making it was injecting cream and other things into the inside of some... making them puff up just enough to look overly indulgant. Junko got one of the hot and fresh ones with a smile as she bit into it and the cooler custard was there exploding with each bite... a welcome feeling and she nodded. "Thank you."

 

[Junko Ike]

She was taking it and eating as she walked.. it was fresh and delicious... welcoming in the morning as it wasn't healthy for you but it was good for the early morning when the body needed fuel.. it would work plenty for it. She was just glad as the villages homes and shops gave way and opened more and more to the curved crescent of the islands side. The port as it were had ships able to be docked and the celeste class was there in one areas. Since they were massive vessels they were on either side of it jutting out into the waters. With buildings and in the center there were the masive fisheries that had been developed for it. Sending tens of millions of fish into the waters but also selling the different types of meat.

There was the main hub with the various cloning setups for it as well as fabricators for veggies and grains... fruit trees all around them as the people and droids were working on the early morning set ups. Preparing for all of the people who would be coming out to eat and enjoy with them. She finished her pastry with a nod of her head and got a little water as looking from the ports edge she could see some of the islands in the distance. The shield islands where her handmaidens would be taking over with enough space between them for the celeste classes to move around as well as other vessels.. THe much smaller one not including the submersibles that were set up in a dock.

 

[Junko Ike]

She could see the subs and they were larger then they could be but worth it... they functioned in the deepest waters which was a benefit and with the improvements to them they could like everythign else function like a mobile home for others. COmplete with food, water and air for the occupants.. so they would be able to survive and a hibernation system. The subs were also beneficial as they used the same self maaintaining and repairing materials as the others.. which built them up as a far superior design to many other things. From the subs that were there they had the white gold celeses which were massive vessel and designed for warfare but also for carrying tens of thousands.

THe celeste class vessels were also important in other parts of it as they went around the islands. At the edges there were cannons forming a firing line and at each end point of the docks there was another with overlapping fields of fire so three could always be able to target a location. Further out were drones that hovered around allowing them to monitor and if needed fire a great deal more. THe bay of it using the hydrostatic netting and sensors that kept predators out allowing many fish.. the artificial islands waters deep and dark but there was no risk of major danger... it was helpful like that... the multicolored fish were also beautiful as the fishing brought nets and nets of fish up from the waters.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko stood at the docks edge as she looked out at more of it and from the waters she was able to follow and see many more of the fish. The underwater fisheries with light illuminating the crystal clear waters as the hydrostatic shielding and cleaners were working to make sure it was the most healthy for anyone near it. The running lights went out and with larger struts going into the island as smaller underwater areas jutted out at intervals. SHe could see trhe schools going as she walked joining her handmaidens who were observing and talking with the people. The villages edges that wrapped around were being expanded casually and mostly to tighten up potential security risks.

THe edge went into the mountains that jutted into the water and they were setting up additional shield projectors there... ones that would enclose the area. THe module built into the mountain with a tunnel allowing access to the otherside which she could see they were planting additional trees to obscure and cover it. From the shore view so others wouldn't be able to see it but sentries could be placed there to have lines of sight into the ocean or firing lines with weapons that were being set up in the tunnel and able to be accessed by the defensive forces that would be stationed there. SHielding gates to close it off and make a protected area.
