A ship broke from warp over the planet Haven. Lord Srox stood up from the pilot’s seat and looked at the planet. She could already see the defenses of the planet. Her systems already pinging that they were being watched. She motioned her hand to the dashboard and turned off the ships weapons and shields. A big gamble but the lack of weapons and shields it would show that she wasn’t here to fight. Looking over the planet one more time, she walked back over to the seat, and opened coms. She didn’t talk but began to send Nypherian code towards the planet. “It is even a planet or just a large station...” she mumbled to herself. The code she sent consisted of highly advanced communications that stated its intentions of exchange of technology. She never made the effort to speak in her language as the better outcome would be to communicate as a Nypherian instead.
               
        The possibility of an alliance would benefit the Empire greatly. With the growing wars and the possibility of the Demons winning their battles against the alliance. She wondered how they would react to someone or something talking to them in code. Would it have a positive effect or negative? Only time will tell as Lord Srox waited for a response from Haven.

The Custodian's sensor arrays alerted it to an inbound vessel at one of the outposts. After an analysis that lasted less than a fraction of a second, the AI determined that the site of activity was Haven.
Just then, inside the planet, the sentinel factories began to speed up and mass-produce automated sentinels in preparation for potential conflict. Existing sentinels came out of hibernation and began to collectively fly upwards into the clouds of the planet, stopping just short of the enormous metallic shell that encased the entire planet.

The visiting ship had sent a code. After a brief analysis The Custodian used Haven's sensors and scanned the ship. It was unlike any documented species in the galaxy. Perhaps one of the existing species had evolved into something new? Further analysis revealed faint DNA traces connecting this peculiar species to humanity. However this level of technological sophisticated after only six years was highly unlikely.

The Custodian ignored the request for exchanging technology for now and instead broadcasted its own message back to the ship.
"Identify."

Lord Srox had received a message back from Haven. She narrowed her eyes as the response is like how the Nypherians talk to each other. She loaded the next response back to the Haven. “Nypherian, once human, now machine. By the code…we should discuss an agreement.” The message itself had been sent through code. The very same way the Nypherians talk to one another. She had never met another species that talked very similar like the Nypherians. It would make sense in to why the Nypherians would want to meet them. With the growing war and the assault on the Shadow Kin. They wanted to make sure they had allied the one species they could considered their own kin. She herself also wanted to ally these beings. Two highly advanced machine species exchanging technology to benefit each other. This is also a political move as it is a tactical one. If the Nypherian Empire and Haven allied each other and word gets out. It could be enough to scare away people from attacking her people. The idea of two heavily intelligent Machine Species working together, she felt like the Universe couldn’t stop them.
               
          There is also her Great Grandfather she had to deal with. The alliance is also one to help bolster her upcoming war with him and the Asmodians.

The species identified itself as Nypherian. The Custodian ran a quick check on the different Forerunner outposts and installations located around the galaxy. One of them had recently submitted a report of sensor data that picked up energy signatures similar to that of the ship, indicating that the new anomaly near Outpost 0758 was related to this peculiar species of human.

The commanding Nypherian on that ship offered some sort of agreement. This itself piqued The Custodian's interest. The Forerunners had always intended humanity to be the inheritors of their technology - to protect the galaxy. However the previous encounter with Humanity and the alien alliance that called itself The Covenant had made it clear that the Humans were not ready yet.

However, this was different. These Humans had clearly changed themselves to the point of being barely recognisable as the former species. Did this in any way make them more worthy? Further analysis would be required. The Custodian sent another message in reply to the Nypherian ship:
"Stand By."

A small portal just outside the planet suddenly opened up, and from within it emerged a strange object. The object was octahedral in shape, like a three-dimensional diamond: Two hundred meters long and 50 meters wide. It's surface was of silver coloration and shiny to the point of almost reflecting any light cast upon it. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the object was composed of hundreds of small, meter-wide spheres. The central divide between the upper and lower halves of the octahedron glowed red, and the object began to move towards the ship at a fast pace, clearly a robot or sentinel of sorts.

The sentinel stopped just short of the ship and analysed it up close. The technology used to build the ship was incredibly sophisticated by Human standards. Perhaps these humans had evolved separately from the previous ones? The Custodian sent another encrypted message to the Nypherians, requesting entry of at least one of the small meter-wide spherical sentinels to enter the ship so that they may converse more directly.

She watched in awe. How they moved and communicated amongst each other. The ship could not detect it. She knew that she needed to understand their technology and help her people as well. She looked in marvel at their world. She could feel the energy around their world but she had only felt this only a few times. The systems pinged as they received a message, “Stand Bye”. She smirked as indeed, they sounded like Nypherian AI’s. To the point with their statements. The world in front of her reacted and a unique ship came out. As if it glowed with a silver hue. She hadn’t seen anything this beautiful since being on Chyke. The buildings were built to look like paradise and ensure people felt at ease. She had received another message.

The machines were asking to board. She could only assume it meant to converse face to face. She glanced back at the ship and wondered if she would talk to an AI or an organic. She typed in the response, “Granted”. The hatch opened and she waited. A smaller object left the ship and moved gently towards the opening. She watched as it entered and the door closed. She looked at the object and stood in front of it. “You’re an AI. Does that mean there are Organics living among you and speak through you? Maybe, they’re all gone and the AI is left. “ she said with curiosity. The AI could see that her right is mechanical in nature. Not of UNSC origin. The metal also doesn’t exist within this galaxy. She tossed a receiver on the ground and it opened a holo projection.

“I am the current leader of the Nypherian Empire. We’re interdimensional travelers. With our discovery of the Frame Shift Drive, we can travel between Dimensions and Universes. To put it in simpler terms. Imagine a Forest and each tree is something we call the Void. This Void holds an unlimited vastness of Universes which are its branches. The leaves are its dimensions and from out discovery, they’re an unlimited number of these Dimensions. We use to be human but lost our home to Nuclear hell fire. We travel accidently through a wormhole and had been transported to another Universe. There we grew.”

The holotape turned on and it showed a human. It slowly changed with every 100 years. It slowly became more and more mechanical, until it fully looked like the current Nypherians. It them expanded across the ship and showed all the variations of Nypherian soldiers.

“We were angry, sad, lost, and alone. We held a grudge against organic life and so we fought. For a total of 1.4 billion years, we fought. Through a Universal War against another Empire called the Twin Blade, we won, yet felt lost. We finally learned through our anger, we only caused more harm than good. So we retreated, to the Void. There we stayed and built. We created 10 worlds for the refugees of the past 2 Universal Wars and gave them a home and protected them. We called them, Void Citizens. We changed and began to accept organic life. We left them in control as we created a Senate of all 100 species living among us. They joined our ranks in the military. Now, we are here and we have a dilemma. We view almost every species as young, not ready. We keep our distance but have agreed to Non-Aggression pacts to avoid war. It has partly worked. Attacked, by the Darkness on the system of Chyke. In the attack, we lost 300 Nypherian soldiers and 2,000 Void Citizens. We are now at war in which we tried to avoid. Now we face an issue with the Demonic Crusade and our people want an Alliance between you and or Empire. We want your help and possible help the others in removing the Demonic Crusade as they are losing their war. We decided we cannot stand by and watch. We want your help in this endeavor. Another thing we would like is to trade technology so we can understand each other better.”

The small, meter-long metallic sentinel entered the ship and came face-to-face with what The Custodian could only assume to be the captain of the ship. The sentinel as mentioned before was a shiny silver in colour and seemingly metallic, however this was not the case as its material merely resembled metal.

In the center of the metal ball was a glowing red "eye" that radiated some heat. The female Nypherian asked whether there were any organics amongst their faction or if they were purely AI.
"The Forerunners were once a race that stood proud as the protectors of this galaxy." The Custodian spoke through the sentinel, its voice deep and synthetic. "However, after a few million years of ruling the galaxy, dire circumstances have rendered them extinct."

"I am The Custodian, an AI that was assigned to look after and protect every single Forerunner artifact in the galaxy. I am their keeper, their caretaker."
The Custodian sentinel only observed as Lord Srox put down a holographic projector, which then proceeded to explain Nypherian history to it. It floated in one spot, silently listening and comprehending the information that was being relayed to it.

It now understood: this race of humans were incredibly advanced and sophisticated in their own right. That explained their lack of connection with the humans of this universe, they were from a separate one entirely. They developed differently and had their own billion-years long history. The Custodian understood that they may once have been a race that were in the wrong before, but appreciated the fact that they learned from those faults and improved. The idea of inter-universal travel interested The Custodian too. The Forerunners themselves never actually achieved this type of technology despite discovering seven different types of alternate space.

Perhaps they were worthy enough for them to go forward with this agreement. Negative, protocol was clear. The Custodian didn't have enough information. It needed to analyse their behaviour, conclude their intent despite what Lord Srox told it.
"I have analysed the Demonic Crusade's movements through the star systems and their expansion does indeed seem aggressive." The Custodian finally said as the hologram finished. "However, they are as of yet, none of my concern. If they were to attack any Forerunner installation, protocol would dictate that I take action and as of yet, I am not required to."

"However," It continued, "your offer to understand each other better is an offer that I can accept. It is for this reason that I shall now grant this vessel entry into the Shield World." The Custodian rotated on the spot and faced the main viewing port of the ship. The Shield World Haven loomed in the distance, with the giant sentinel floating still in the blackness of the space between the ship and the planet.

Haven's outermost surface was covered lacked any terrain and was covered in patterns and layers of armour. The shell itself was hundreds of kilometers thick and the first 50 kilometers had within it, thousands upon thousands of anti-ship weapon placements hidden away. The shell was also covered in a number of lights and some of these took on geometric patterns such as circular orientations or arrays of lines.
Suddenly, from one specific spot on the shell, a circular opening formed in one of the shell's large circular entrances. The opening grew and grew in size until it reached a few hundred kilometers in width. From within the opening emanated a bright blue-white light that shone a beam out into space, illuminating a path for the Nypherian ship into Haven.

She knew it would not be easy to convince the AI to join the Nypherian Empire in a war front. She had more to say but decided to wait. Instead, she wanted to watch the event in front of her. The world that seemingly opened before her. Like a gateway begging her to come in. The white light emitting from the world was reason enough. Her ship moved on towards the light. It slowly and carefully moved within the opening. “I thought the same. Their wars didn’t need involve my people. Though, many felt that way but some are claiming if we do nothing, we will be next. Within our culture, we believe in the idea of balance. That one thing happens to another it will affect us. A symbiotic relationship, you must understand that. The Universe is like a pond. Toss a rock and of course the epicenter will show the most effect but the ripples will be felt throughout the universe. The larger the effect, the more people will be affected by it.”

She looked back out the window. “Ignorance is no reason to deny the possibility. Do the Math, how long do you see the Demons turning their attention onto you. When there is no one else and you’re alone, even your technology won’t protect you for so long. The Demons are like a virus and there is only one way to deal with a virus. If you leave it be, it will grow, fester, and become harder to cure. The possibility of our alliance will help the both of us. We will grow, we will prosper, and we can learn from each other.”

Lord Srox's words had The Custodian thinking. From a logical standpoint, it was entirely feasible that the demons would eventually turn their attention on the Forerunner relics littered across the galaxy. Her analogy was also very similar to those given by teachers at Forerunner military schools where they'd teach about the art of war 100'000 years ago.

A virus she said... similar to the Flood. The Forerunners failed to act in time to prevent it from spreading, treating it more like a disease than an actual threat. By the time they had begun to take the Flood seriously, it was far too late. Their most advanced AI at the time had also betrayed them, swayed by the Flood's hivemind and allied to their cause. It was because of the Flood that the Forerunners went extinct, because they failed to act on time, because they became arrogant. Perhaps the Nypherian was right.

The ship drifted into the gateway and then there was a blinding flash of light as they entered the atmosphere of the planet. As the light settled and everyone's sights grew accustomed to the new environment, everyone in the ship was presented with an unprecedented sight...



As the vessel dipped into the clouds and flew through them, tall and massive floating metallic structures decorated the airspace around them. The structures seemed to be floating freely with no connection to the ground whatsoever, although a select few seemed to be anchored to the ceiling that was the planet's outer shell. The clouds themselves were incredibly enough, also alien in design: a soft blue colour instead of the traditional white, twisted and swirling and built up in random places to form different patterns and clusters. Below them a thick blue blanket of clouds could also be seen, obscuring the as-of-yet unseen surface.

All in all, everything seemed still, peaceful with only the clouds slowly floating by. The artificial lighting system that emanated from the ceiling itself was very distant, disappearing over the horizon almost, indicating that the side of the planet they were on was experiencing noon. The sun's bright golden rays managed to penetrate only a few clouds and change their colour, with some of the shiny metallic structures also dully reflecting its rays.
"Your analysis on the demonic crusade is logical" The Custodian finally replied. "I shall keep an eye on them to see if their expansion shows sign of any more threat." It paused.
"Welcome to Haven."

It's beauty mad ever smile. Watching the world unfold in front of her. She had no idea how to really take it in or react. All she really could do is smile. The beauty of it looked like some world's she had visited before she came to this Dimension. "It's beautiful." Were the only words she could say. Trying to take in as much  scenery as she could. Though, she became distracted with her emotions. "We want you to understand. That we can't sit back and watch any longer. This is their galaxy as much as it is yours. Every event will effect you in some ways. Evil prospers when good men do nothing. This virus needs culling and we plan on ending it. We turned our backs on the UNSC and the Alliance and for that we feel guilty. We are now watching the Demons next move and we are planning."

"At the sametime we keep out distance from the life within this galaxy. Only deeming two species worthy of sharing technology with. The Kyodain Clan and hopefully you. The reasoning behind this is another term and concept." Lord Srox took a deep breath as she could keep her eyes off of the world she had flown into. " The word is, young. As the Young, tend not to do what they're told. It's most likely the reason you keep to yourselves. I am sure you can see the data now. The time to act is now. Not in favor of the UNSC, the Alliance, or the other life forms. We act for balance within the galaxy. "

This whole concept of balance was interesting to the Custodian. It was a lot like the Forerunner's philosophical Mantle of Responsibility over everything in the galaxy. Protocol was clear for it, uphold the Mantle as the Forerunners had done so in their golden ages. Would it be in violation of the Mantle not to act against the demonic crusade? Or would it be a violation to act against them and potentially slaughter what is after all, another sentient species?

No, the Mantle also made it clear that inter-species conflicts in the galaxy to the point of galactic conflict would not be tolerated. However, their move against the demons would need to be calculated. A full-scale invasion using all of Haven's hidden armada of Forerunner ships would also be in violation of the Mantle. The demons already had a lot of factions fighting against them. Perhaps a number of sentinels would suffice against the demons, hopefully as a form of suppression to enable the other factions to stop their onslaught.

The ship approached another large floating structure, but this one was different to the others. A small section of it seemed to shift, and suddenly pieces of silvery-blue geometry disconnected from each other and folded away to make room for a circular landing pad that slowly but fluidly formed, multiple circular platforms sliding and floating into place to form the landing pad that was big enough for the Nypherian ship, jutting out of the side of the building.

"Your arguments hold weight, Nypherian. Land your ship on that structure. We shall go inside and discuss the terms of our first trade."

The ship landed on the platform she had been instructed to do. They had both left the ship and all Lord Srox could do is look in wonder around her. No matter if she would see it over and over again, it is a wonder of the universe to her. She pointed around her, "This is incredible. This to me is a wonder of the Universe. A sense of beauty that is rare to find. The unique creativity is something you as AI's should cherish. We hold a certain point of remembering our past, as a reminder of what we use to be. We hold all of the memories of our past, since we first left home. Whenever a Nypherian AI is created, all knowledge is transferred to it. Each AI thinks freely and judge their actions based on the memories of the past. Which comes to my point, this place that has been built, is your key to the past. This is something you should protect and cherish. "

It is there way of doing things. There way of holding balance, to remember to the past. Remembering the tings they cherish and hate. Remembering ones mistakes so that they would never do it again."The terms of trade. We want to trade technology and learn from each other. To grow from shared knowledge. We also want an alliance, a defensive alliance. We will jump to your aid if anything should happen to you. Of course, we won't expect you to jump to our aid in conflict when we seek out the demons. Though, we implore that you help us. We need to end it, once and for all."

As they left the ship, the massive octahedral sentinel that they had seen exit the portal in space was revealed to have been trailing the ship this whole time. It stopped just as the ship landed, floating right outside the floating building.

The Custodian lead the Nypherians towards the entrance of the spire - a large trapezoid entrance 20 feet in height. The door seemed to consist of four metallic silvery plates that slotted together. First, the two side panels shifted and retreated back into the sides of the trapezoid frame, before the top and bottom panels slid up and down respectively and disappeared out of sight.

In front of them was now a long corridor lit with blue lights. The floor, walls and ceiling were decorated with arrays of lines and composed of long shiny panels of silvery-blue colour. As they walked through the corridor, the Custodian replied: "Protection of this planet and all other Forerunner relics is the job for which I was assigned. It is well appreciated that your species has chosen to ally itself with us and offer help in times of need."

The group came upon T-junction. "This way." The Custodian lead them to the right and they walked down another corridor, this one shorter than the last until they reached the end. The hallway widened here and the flooring noticeably changed, composed of a thick see-through material decorated with geometric line patterns. Through the glass, a long drop into a blue-lit abyss could be seen, revealing the flooring to be a platform of some kind. The platform was lined with silvery-blue rims around the outside of it. If one were to look up, a tunnel identical to the abyss below would be seen stretching up into the tower. They were on an elevator big enough to contain all of them on it. The elevator then without further delay, rose up and with steady speed, continued upwards smoothly.

"I have thus far been convinced that the Nypherians are a race that are to be trusted. In the section of the tower that I am taking you is a piece of technology that I wish to offer as part of the first trade between us."

The elevator had taken them up steadily. Soon, the being spoke and told her that they could be trusted. This made her smile as gaining another friend is equally as gaining as an ally. "We appreciate any help that you can give us. Even if so little but enough to tip the scales of in-balance. We have many other concerns in the Galaxy but we won't bother you with petty concerns." There were many things that were bothering her. She knew of the forming of the GSU and knew that sooner or later they would or might turn their eyes on them. She had to grow in power and make sure that no one could threaten her people.

She removed her hood and let her black hair fall to her shoulders. She let out of a sigh as the tensions had already been growing. She had issues with the Darkness and issues with the Growing Asmodian forces. Things were definitely getting more and more difficult, however, she had a plan in place.

As soon as they reached the intended floor, the elevator stopped and didn't move another inch. Another long corridor stretched out before them, at the end of which was another, smaller doorway. Upon approaching this doorway, it opened up and revealed a vast room. Stepping into the room would only reveal how big it really was. They were now stood on a platform that stuck out of the wall. The platform was perhaps five meters in length and ten meters wide.

Beyond the platform was a vast space. The massive room itself was cuboid in shape, lined with silvery-blue architecture. Panels and glass-like material were combined to form geometric patterns only further complicated by arrays of lines and circles engraved onto these metallic and glass panels. This design covered the entire floor that seemed to be a few hundred meters below them, the entire ceiling that seemed to be a few hundred meters above them and the all four walls, the other three of which seemed to be at the same distance away from them. The room wasn't inactive however, as dozens of mini-structures populated the vast space between them and the far wall and also above and below them. Different panels and pieces of architecture disconnected from these structures, floated to another part of it and reconnected, glass and metallic panels shifting around and such.

Various flocks of sentinels, same the one that The Custodian was inhabiting patrolled different parts of the room. The Custodian lead the Nypherians right to the edge of the platform which ended in a sheer drop . The Custodian then turned to look at Lord Srox.
"Tell me, Nypherian. What kind of technology do you seek from us?"

She laughed at the question. In fact she didn't know the answer to that. She never came here in mind with something specific. She originally came here for friendship and to share technology. She glanced up and looked at the machine. "You can call me, Srox. We never came here in specific technology. I feel that it is fair, that we share our secrets to our Frame Shift Drive." she says in response to his question. She pointed back in the direction of the ship. "You're welcome to scan it with more detail if you like. The technology is extremely advanced. Any other species if they get their hands on it, they wont be able to unlock its secrets. They wont be able to understand it. Since, you're AI, you might be able to unlock its secrets. The technology we want can be anything. Our technology and AI are smart enough to figure out the rest. We will grow and evolve further from it. Then discover new forms of technology with your help. We're a curious species. Still keeping to our Humanity's wondering mind. We will continue to grow and look for new things to discover."

The frame shift drive. It was indeed a remarkable piece of technology, similar to their slipspace drives but different at the same time. Perhaps it would hold the key to inter-universal travel.

The large octahedral sentinel still floating outside the large structure finally moved again, lowering itself until it was near the platform on which the ship had landed. From the mid-section of the sentinel, a bright orange light shot out in a straight line and scanned up and down the ship a few times, before disappearing.

"Information received." The Custodian replied. "Thank you."
Suddenly, from the edge of the platform on which they were stood, a bright blue glow emanated from the edge. One of the smaller floating ministructures in the room drifted down until it was floating right opposite the platform, fifty meters away. The bright blue light then flashed and in an instant, there was a thin "bridge" of blue light that connected the platform to the cuboid structure.

"The bridge that you see before you is composed entirely of boson-photon fields. It is entirely safe to walk across, the hardlight technology is one of our most resilient materials." The Custodian then floated along the bridge, towards the opposite ministructure.

She laughed as she looked at the bridge. "This is incredible. We actually tried to make something like this. Yet, no matter how are we tried,we couldn't figure it out. " walking over and bending down. She tapped her fingers on the bridge and smiled. "Thank you, we accept. This is a fair trade. We humbly accept and we want to also offer our assistance in times of need. We will come to your aid if need be. " She said as she followed the AI.

"We also want to warn you. Once you start using the technology, there will be others that will take notice of you. Our enemy, the Asmodians are one of those Empires that will take notice. There are two more but we don't have a name for them. They choose not to talk to us and avoid any confrontations."

The Custodian lead them right up to the cuboid ministructure to the point where they'd be standing a mere meter away from it. 
"I appreciate the offer for assistance in times of need, it will be duly noted and we shall return the favour in the future." It said as the seemingly smoothness of the structure in front of them formed lines across it. Along those lines, the panels disconnected from the structure and floated outward and off to the sides. The panels collected on each side and remained suspended in thin air.

This gave the Nypherians a look into what was inside the structure: multiple rows blade-like weapons. The weapons were a combination of of both metallic and hardlight material where the metallic parts formed the base structure of the weapons and the red hardlight formed the actual blades. The blades themselves looked unbelievably sharp and some heat seemed to radiate from the rows of blades.

Each blade was almost two meters long and in total, there were around 300 of them shown stored inside the structure before them.
"These are hardlight blades, formerly used by Forerunner Warrior Servants. However ever since their extinction, they have been stored away until now. This is what I offer as part of our first trade. You may take these blades and use them as you wish." The Custodian paused briefly before addressing her warning. "Your warning has also been duly noted. I shall prepare our defense systems and weaponry for any such case of impending attack."

She followed the AI towards a room. Within the room there were the things this being had talked about. These weapons she saw were something that were very valuable. She knew that these pieces of technology could and would be used to their benefit. They could and will grow from these pieces of technology. They could also evolve new forms of technology and even help with the secret program.

"Thank you, we will accept these. Let our friendship blossom." there wasn't much else she could say to the AI. She had ordered the probes to pick up and move enough of the weapons into the ship. A lot had been on her mind. Her people were creating new technology within the deepest part of the territory and with the new technology given by Haven. New things were going to begin.

Within a few minutes, the probes had managed to transport all of the hardlight blades onto the ship.
As the probes finished loading the ship, The Custodian floated outside it on the landing pad as the crew began to board it.
The floating ball then turned on the spot to look at Lord Srox.
"Is there anything more that I could offer? Anything you would like to know?"

Once the loading had been finished, they made their way back to the ship. Everything had gone according to plan and they had made a new friend. With the growing tension with the GSU and the Lucian Kingdom, she needed that friendship with Haven and she got it. Now, she had new technology that she had received from Haven. Her train of thought had been broken when the AI had asked her a question. "There isn't much left I want to ask but I do have one more thing to tell you. Beware the name, Anu Mau."

Anu Mau. Did it link to her previous warning?
"Anu Mau. I shall do so, is there anything I should know of this individual or thing?"

He sighed, she hated talking about him. "Anu Mau, leader of the Asmodians. A being that to my knowledge, is immune to magics. He also eats and devours beings with magical abilities. The more he eats, the more powerful he gets. He most likely will go after the GSU and other places that house magical beings."

The Custodian pondered for a moment, which was equivalent to a split second in real time:
The GSU? It seemed that the Humans had changed from since this shield world last encountered them. They were finally putting aside their differences and joining with the supernatural race to form a unified faction. If galactic peace was their ultimate goal, then they'd be doing what the Forerunners intended for them.

His outposts continued to report back on the Demonic activity too, and it seemed that the GSU intended to eliminate the parasitical race. Perhaps a step in the right direction. However he was also receiving reports of a new faction forming, resembling the Demonic Crusade in its activities and intentions. They had already forcefully invaded and taken the world of Asgard. This was against the Mantle.

And now a new threat lurked in the horizon. Something perhaps more powerful than anything the galaxy had ever faced for a long time. The Custodian knew that it would have to re-evaluate its personal plans.

"Thank you for the information. I assure you that your warning has been taken into consideration, I shall begin the preparations for any such threat. Meanwhile, I do hope you make good use of the technology that you have received today and use it to prepare in the same way. I hope that we meet again soon."

She nodded her head and waved. She got into her ship and powered up the engines. The ship left and she narrowed her eyes. She waited until she fully left the world. Sh turned on the Nypherian Code network and configured it to hide their transmission. "I have technology. RTB, 10 seconds. Begin operation Blue Glare."  She knew that the coded network had not been shared and with the ship off, it was near impossible for Haven to know about it or even scan it. Every second the coded network changed, thus making it near impossible to crack.
