Dev Shadows of Atrisia

[Junko Ike]

Moon gave a nod ot the jedi master herself at that... the bidding was sadly small in most places and they were not being able to see a whole lot... which went aa long way towards Atrisia being able to retrieve a great amount of technology or ships.. it was how they got the gem fleet designs for themselves at the auction. They might be able to pick up something just as good... maybe or a contract that would benefit them in some way. Junko was up for it as well as a few things here and there that might be visible with the expo. Atrisi United should haave went but they were working on a few of the other things on the planet... aside from the handmaidens islands.

Junko knew they were also working on continuing the Joshi era... fundamentally improving much of Atrisia towards a golden age as they were looking to produce more resources then they had population... post scarcity was a dream not many others would be able to achieve in the galaxy and if they could do it... if they could expand it across the entire Commonwealth then they would be able to do a whole lot more. Junko knew they had a few other places.. the Lalatina colonies were able to use the Ba'land to to to galaxies across the universe and with the stations thaat were developed, the hub worlds and the newer transports that they were working on.

 

[Junko Ike]

She would have to work on that and a few other things... based on how the auction went they might be able to do other things... she could expand and improve their gemstone fleet or find a purpose for it... detailing the Atrisian colonies that they were going with... if they improved Atrisi United standing in other places... its resource mines or even some of its works with galactic megastructures... it was one thing for Atrisias commonwealth to be isolated and secured... it was another to ensure areas and ways that smugglers got into it were taken care of... from the bueys and patrols to the increased stations and monitoring areas around the two hundred worlds.

"I know there are other things... I have seen it in the wind... in the trees. Those nanites you introduced have been beneficial to the world... vastly improving many parts of it and cleaning up others. Crops are larger, yields for the food are bigger... top soil erosion has been reduced minimally in many cases to almost being a non issue.. it is almost always harvest season even in the middle of winter... the hot springs we have are improved and able to truely benefit everyone with some newer private and exclusive but others catering to the commoners... now they have the quality of life that is used against others." Moon said it all and sounded amazed in most cases.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko gave a nod to that. "We have worked Shoma and I... in most cases to normalize comforts but with education reforms and improvements to medical sciences we should be able to do a lot more.. we are wanting to try and improve other aspects. I know he has been improving diplomatic relations with the herglics and closer allies who were not within Commonwealth space. To smooth over a few things over with them as more of Commonwealth space is locked off and isolated with specific trading areas when they were able to come everywhere..... we still welcome them as we have been improving the hyperspace restrictions to protect the people."

Moon seemed to like it. "His diplomatic efforts on top of a lot more... we have shown the Herglics that we can survive and have been a proven trade partner... they seem to like it as they do some of the same things." Moon and Junko had pulled up the diplomatic briefs aand there were a lot more... they had tens of thousands of new briefs as Atrisian diplomats were being trained and sent out across the universe now.. they could send them to colonies and from those they would go to a hundred other worlds and those that wanted to join them were able to become members of the Commonwealth... providing resources while they received advanced technologies and information in some cases.

 

[Junko Ike]

The auctions were over... information coming at they were being tabulated and she could see there had been minimal bidding on Sasori products but they could also see that Sasori had bids in as the final one... no promise they would be chosen still it was nice and the mystery auction well.. that was hopeful in some cases... they might be able to do a lot more. Junko was looking as it seemed the senate meeting had died down as well and most news cycles were stalling just enough to give her a chance to finish up here as she kissed the woman on her cheek. "THis has been fun." THey had been with the other handmaidens curcled around the lounge as the floor had adjusted to allow them all to lay around.

THey slowly started to get up as she was checking on other reports.. they might be able to have a few newer pieces of tech designed as the factories and labs were compounding... allowing one development to improve another or power another or make the parts needed for another faster, stronger... it was a way that they were constantly improving as their hypergates and hyperdrives had improved... their shielding technologies and their weapon systems. JUnko was walking and being escorted out of the palace back tot he roof she could see Phaidor waiting for her andNari was there as her captain of the guard was improving many things... like their guard armor and weapons.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko looked at the woman as information was coming up but outside she saw Nari with all of her work. "We have been working on and improving many things... it seems incorporating a lot of the newer technologies will be much easier.. the stations are proving to be a vast improvement as well princess." She said it while standing there until she was checking out a few parts. The defensive stations only went so far.. the self sustaining resources stations were important for Atrisia as they were being developed and operating with their cloning and fabrication terraforming technologies... a powerful and improved state which would essentially sustain a world and keep it populated with plenty of food both flora and fauna.

Junko wanted to do more... the goal was creating the means to keep the planet itself functioning, supporting life and protected so if they were able to use the stations around it as a mixture of everything then they would. With their warping technologies they could send things down to the surface after it has been adapted to be possible for anything... this could work for them in some other ways as these could be used to help planets and promote grow that they want to see... or aid as the Commonwealth would be an important aspect going forward... Shoma would say that maybe they were trying to influence so Junko could have more credits which was true but so was helping.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko could see much more was there.. they were hybridizing technologies into an improved station and if Sasori or Atrisi united could use it as an improved station... if its specs held up they would be able to place it over every planet they had and it would be able to monitor it... to improve and heal the worlds themselves or feed the population that was there.... Junko was liking the look of it and ordered a few of them for the system itself... one for each world or even two... the various moons would be there as well. Nari would like it.. maybe she had the resource stations being used for them... and fabricated to show a small point some food.

"Impressive." Junko said it while she was looking at things there... she was improving a few other aspects of it and if they could fund more projects like this... "It is, if every world has this and Atrisia gets even through use a fraction of the cost for it. We could create an economic surplus unseen by many worlds. We wouldn't even be out of debt which we already are... we would be so improved and able to just start paying citizens of the Commonwealth to live here. Everyone would be able to really improve their own quality of life and it would be all because of you and Shoma funding the research with your families company princess... something impressive."

 

[Junko Ike]

"My brother foten is and while he might not act like it... there is a lot going on inside of his head... he just needs to apply himself." She said it with a grin on her face though when she was thinking about it... the grin getting a little larger in most cases as they were going to be able to add a lot to Junko's endeavors on the world.. they were exploring after all tens of thousands of islands... meeting the people and touring the Commonwealth in some cases.. they were improving many more lives if they could... where they could and Shoma was meeting with the people in the galaxy who... well he was better talking with people without rolling his eyes.

Nari looked at her and presented everythign that they had managed to find with a grin on her face though... there was a greater interest in a few things. "We have been observing some of the reports and new stations came out of hyperspace. From Sasori but they are impressive in their capabilities I must way... specifically if they really are able to continue to supply food and water.... the energy ddemands on the planet are easy to handle thanks to a great deal of the power source." She seemed to enjoy it though... "But these far-casters... oh there is a lot that will be enjoyed with them now that so many are making credits hand over fist and we are trading them off."

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko grinned as Nari seemed to really be enjoying her situation with that... the far-caster system and what was going to be the advanced product distribution... well it would allow them to get equipment all over the planet and the moons here for anyone and they had disposal units aable to break the trash down. THey were cleaning up the world and as it spread from their workers now... she was seeing the improvements already. The sky was clear and even sharper in color it seemed while the ozone and atmosphere was being repaired and made to support them ideally. The waters were being cleaned and protected which made them clearer.

The air was possibly over oxygen rish.. everything felt better and lighter... her breathing as well as others were impressive. She knew they were also cleaning particles from ash and smoke out which helped... micro organisms or parasites on the world that were not entirely essential were being cleansed which would hopefully lead to progressively longer life spans as their medical sciences were working to improve the overall health of the atrisian people as a stock. SHe knew this would eventually lead to better things with their sciences... and they might be able to do a lot more things in the future if they could augment and improve their understanding.

 

[Junko Ike]

"The far casters will prove to be one of the major innovations that we can work on and with as well as our advances in constructors. If we are able to keep them up we'll be able to improve a few other aspects as well... imagine being able to not just terraform but construct entire cities within hours on a world. We could make the Commonwealth one of the largest populations in the galaxy with enough resources to still feed, house and care for a population several hundred times its size." Junko had the ambition and with the right amount of work they might be able to pull it and a few other tricks off.. it would all come down to what they could approve and what they could create.

"There will also be a few other items to make, we can't birth a billion atrisians to replace the ones who were killed but we can encourage larger families. The regions are being worked on and preserved... the advances in technological means will allow use dimensional engineering... while maitnaining the look of a rural world. We can have different aspects true of everything that we do." She said it and Nari was grinning at that... she had seen plenty fo the engineering that was going into whaat they did... hell she knew what to do with some of their barracks and defensive measures as they could hide entire armies within a city now and have multiple thanks to the biots and droids.

 

[Junko Ike]

Nari seemed to take what she was saying and gave both a nod and a thought to it. The defensive minded Atrisian was her security after all and she had worked to design the series of islands for all of the handmaidens and to protect Junko's palace, it was her who designed the palaces security and redundancy systems that would benefit them in miltiple ways and she had been on the council designed with the emperor offering advice about how to handle the immigration and protections for their people. THose policies being designed to be incorporated across not just Atrisia but also all of Commonwealth space... it was an impressive feat they would all get to see on top of what else they managed to do.

"It will be something and never say never princess. Our birthrates are important and we can incentivize them same way we did for industries and manufacturing on Atrisia to unite and work together. THey aren't nationalizzed but they all work to serve the Commonwealths goals first and then individual goals second. So we could get people to have more babies." She shrugged with it as the airship was pulling away for them to travel and Junko didn't need to look at it. The iron and stoner citadel in the distance was clear enough asNari's and it was positioned so that she would always have the princesses back in this case as she was at the back area of the island.

 

[Junko Ike]

"A birthing initiative could be done, population booms are important and it would work to intigrate many of the refugees who came to the Commonwealth as their chance to have unions and children who are able to become citizens easier or have positions able to help them would work on most cases." Junko tapped her chin at the thought and there was a lot that could be said about their plans but none of them doubte dit would be a beneficial area to explore. They could improve upon a lot of it after all if they wanted too. "THough we might be able to do some other things... we have a lot of farmland on Atrisia and other worlds and the new technologies."

SHe was thinking about it and if they could engineering the structures properly... if they could design them to be an improved area and design so that smaller farmhouses were almost like manions or cities. They could populate large families within them, incentivize moving and populating. Unions of lords, ladies and houses to properly fill all of the roles that would be coming. It wouldn't be immediate but they had the means to handle a much larger population and with everyone able to produce even a small amount it was allowing them to sell off or trade with tens of millions of tons of food. The Herglics sometimes had to find places to store it.

 

[Junko Ike]

"The farmland we have though has been renewed with the nanites... the topsoil s one thing but it has gone deeper then that. We have all seen the reports... restoring stability of a region, natural gasses and fuels. Oil as well as mines as it converts traces and waste. WIth the new stations and facilities sickness among the fauna and flora has been almost eliminated as well now... strange wasting sicknesses that have been contracted and rotting sicknesses to some of the trees. Restoring much of the world to life along with the moss that has been growing from Jar'Kai and Zenia's sacrifice for the whole of Atrisia.... it has been a beautiful sight to behold."

Junko looked at Nari as approaching her citadel it was clear of two things... you couldn't see anyone or anything obscuring it... and there were several orchid platforms around it... The massive droids were designed to protect entire cities and were covered in blisters of cannons and thousands of weapons... the smaller droids and biots that were on its back impressive in their own context as the security teaams deployed them from walls and one was designed to take on entire armies with its ability to repair and improve itself and then it still had one of its own massive cannons that could be fired to handle capital ships with a heavy and highly explosive slug.

 

[Junko Ike]

THe airshp docked with the tower and was pulled inside of it. THe platforms were there set up and designed to protect the area around the tower. Biots and soldiers were there with atrisian guards... the power armored fighters as well as she could see squads of soldiers patrolling around in areas. They had full coverage while being able to monitor each other which was an important aspect of what they were doing. Nari was many things but lazy in developing her soldiers and protectiond etails was not one of them.. maybe lazy in how she acted at a hot springs but here they were moving now down the ramp. The massive amount of soldiers going into formation.

THey made for quite a show to her ego... Junko wasn't above it she just tried to regulate it... tried to make sure she wouldn't endanger people for her or vanity and pride. There was a smirk on her face when she was walking with interest in everythign that they had here.. she could check on a few things and the interest was there... she saw as many soldiers as droids and biots that were prepared and there was some metsuka who had been brought in. The most loyal and longest running more then likely as Nari didn't trust easily.. she still monitored the handmaidens in case but knew most of them were more then good enough in Junko's opinion.

 

[Junko Ike]

The metsuka in question stood there and Junko could see them. Ones she had known for just as long from Shri-Tal and the surrounding worlds... mercenaries who had helped protect them and through honor, credits and combinations developed close to a friendship with them. THey knew she would always offer them more to not betray her compared to those who might try and buy them to go after her and they knew that she was a jedi fighter who could defend herself better then most in the galaxy. Nari being there was also important as the eldest of the Mercenaries bow his head. HIs armored frame folding in but he was still aa few heads taller then her.

"Princess, Commander Nari." He said it and standing tall and straight up was flanked by two others. What seemed to be an impossibly tall fighter... she was from Ahch-To and the Dragons as they were called were physically imposing... impressive in a fight and loyal to a fault at times but... damn if they didn't look awesome when fully transformed. The other was a gen'dai... a massive beast of flesh and nerve piled into a heavy suit of power armor and they lived for thousands of years. Atrisia paid best, supplied improved armor and basically gave them themeans to fight out here in the core and deep core worlds as well as the unknown regions.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko looked up when they stood tall and were bein led around the hanger of the tower. The soldiers around dispersing when Junko smiled to all of them and Nari approved. "THey all look well trained and prepared for battle that might not come... but we can use them to train the advisors we send to other worlds." THey had started doing that after Shoma made some deals and Atrisian military officers advising and training upstart worlds. It would allow them to make credits, leaarn about other worlds and also get actionable intel on some of the planets in that regions if they could become part of the commonwealth or an extension.

"That program has been interesting." Nari saaid it while they were walking and the head of the Metsuka was there for a moment longer before bowing out. The soldiers were prepared for a lot and they were going to be able to prepare more. The advancement of military technologies though from the atrisian military saw their armor becoming more protective and sleeker. Most looked like they were wearing bodysuits with agility as well as the protective qualities of much heavier armor. Weapon wise their weapons were packing a stronger and stronger punch compared to many others and even down to their tattoos that they could get.

 

[Junko Ike]

Sasori's improvements in the microtechnologies meant that Atrisia benefitted from the improvements. It built them forward and from the earliest forms as their soldiers were able to get tattoos for their deployment they would be able to augment themselves with abilities to make them stand out in most situations. Aside from the nanocellular enhancement that was able to be done to augment the bodies of their finest soldiers and maintain their bodies into the peak of physical and mental fortitude. Atrisians were overtly healthy, overtly improved in many aspects and always able to really beef themselves up. She knew they were working on continued advancement of medical implants.

"You have done a lot in a short amount of time Nari, more so since you keep insisting on protecting me and not just leaving your subordinents to handle it." She said it with a smile on her face when she waas looking around at the base and everything worked with a cool effeciency... all of the personnel were in crisp clean uniforms and armor. Weapon stations were locked down but could be opened at a moments notice she could see as well as armor stations. There were droids and biots ready to be deployed she could see in smaler alcoves that had been secured with their dimensional engineering as they remained suspended there in case of attack.

 

[Junko Ike]

Nari looked at the princess and had a look on her face.. something akin to almost arrogance that Junko doubted her... it wasn't doubt it was surprise since she did so much already and was organizing all of this. "IT is a little easier, since you have been behaving compared to before... I don't have to send and have an entire contingent of soldiers ready to step in if you manage to do something... or upset someone." Nari said it while she was walking and the main throne room she would be abel to help the people on the base from looked similar but there was a distinctly military feel to it and everything around them. THe walls of weapons were impressive as she was certain they all worked even the old ones for show.

"Nari you make it sound like I intentionally went looking for trouble and that it didn't just happent o be the will of the force that it would end up finding me." Junko said it with a look on her face but it was all good. Nari had protected her since they had to flee atrisia to protect the people and were in exile practically.. the one sith controlling the world and killing many of the people on it... then they had returned and with the others were able to fight. They had been able to rlly some to their fight and bring them to help form the colonies which was beneficial... and since then Junko has dedicated herself to making the lives of the people better... she wanted to make them all happy.

 

[Junko Ike]

"Princess I would never say you intentionally try and find trouble... but it does seem to come out when you are around." SHe said it with a look but she was one of Junko's friends and offered insights few others did... more then that she was her protector taking over for her husband. Her children were also around thankfully having survive... a little worse for wear as she had only been able to save two of them while the third who had been on a trip had been saved by other soldiers. He was hurt but had survived the years his family had been in exile. Now he was here and his siblings, Nari taking over a lot more of the protector role for everything.

"THat is only because in trying to weed out corruption and the dangers that came from the occupation... we impacted the lives of many who profitted. So they didn't like that and wanted to stop us." Junko said it while walking and they went past more alcoves of soldiers or weapons... even armor stations that would allow them to rapidly armor soldiers or repair their armor in situations. Having to take each tower and palace would be an important aspect in trying to breach the island itself. There were even more soldiers in the armor with armored walkers and tanks that could be deployed. Hovering fortresses that they used for combat and a pressor deployment tube.

 

[Junko Ike]

Those tubes added a lot for them and they would be able to do a lot more with them. Junko knew the best way for them to deploy their armored walkers and fighters. If they could launch them properly it would allow them to control the flow of battle aand they were always looking for ways to improve other aspects... their improvements to power armors and their improvements to the fighters were bigger. If they could set them up to become advanced battleframes able to be used it would be a powerful tool that Junko was looking for them to be able to augment their combat specifics even more... She would have to talk with Admiral Lei.... if only to see what needed work and funding.

"Weeding out the corruption helped in many ways princess and it has done a lot more in some cases... we have been able to vastly improve the cooperation between Commonwealth worlds to a degree others have not scene... the creation of the Silk roads you did helped even more and with the stormseeds being used to secure and protect the Commonwealths interests. We are able to isolate and protect ourselves initially in ways that other governments do not know and will ignore for sure but we will at least know we have done a lot of the greater works to improve the people chances and lots." Nari said it all and was a little breathless at the end but worth it.

 

[Junko Ike]

"OUr greater works Nari continue to get greater in comparison... we might not have the Alliances grand army or fleet but most of their stuff seems to rely upon numbers, to overwhelm rather then the quality to be put into any situation and come out on the other side. Their soldiers seem to just do whatever they want and each one has a specialized squad but there is no ground or space forces that follow orders..... They have contracts but only with a highly select few individual companies that they incestiously use while asking for outside contracts. It.... goes a long way to why we are able to develop our technologies in such a way and avoid everything that they do."

SHe was getting nods as they entered one of the lower and larger chambers of the base. The massive hanger doors there that opened in two sections.. one for fighhters and one for tanks. With lines of soldiers are the ready or others running laps within. The hanger doors opened to show a massive flat ground around them with walls in the distance and Junko could sense as well as see them in the force... the pop up pill boxes that would appear should they be needed to saturate the entire area around them.. it would allow the notably impressive defensive area to turn into a giant battlefield for whatever need they had... usually engaging substantial forces trying to invade.
