A small fleet of Nypherian ships broke from warp over the planet. The size of the fleet only consisted of 20 Assault Cruiser  MC 3B10 and MC2B23's. Vice Admiral Koff is in charge of the fleet. He looked over the readings of the planet. Motioning his men to specific positions. "OK lads, I want this done by the books. Begin deployment on the planet and make ready for Void Citizens. Everyone to your stations!" he looked up from the 3D map and out towards the planet. Indeed, he had a spectacular view of the military.  The ships flew into specific positons over the planet. Fighters flew through the atmosphere and began to scan the planet below. Vice Admiral Koff stood over the 3D map and shifted the map to the readings of the planet. All chemical compositions and minerals began to show up in a steady list that kept growing.

“Are there any valuable resources?” He said glancing over towards the Warrant Officers going over the list in other terminals. “Readings indicate the planet is “Livable” planet for Void Citizens. However..” Koff narrowed his eyes, “However?” “We seemed to be locating old ruins of a lost civilization. Readings indicate that they’re millions of years old.” Koff nodded and thanked him for the information. Million-year-old ruins that were still standing, that made no sense. They should have eroded away by the weather. “Send forces on the ground. I want that planet thoroughly scouted.”

The planet had an "overgrowth" issue. It seemed that there hasn't been a fire to reduce things to ash and start anew. The data is indeed interesting, however not completely surprising. Though other records and data streams, it is obvious enough that the planet had a very long rain season. Scouts covered the planet and found more unique resources on the planet. A variety of plants that had restorative properties within the plant. Within moments of the report, there have been orders to begin harvesting plants and other items of interest. Other orders also included in finding spots to start building cities.

With the unique weather patterns on this planet and very rare plants. The originally idea of a one planet city had been scrapped. New orders included creating smaller but large cities in spots that wouldn't damage the ecosystem. The group of robotic probes began to scout of the spots for the cities and another group went looking for the temples that had been spotted in radar.  The group came upon the temples and conducted research surveys.

The temples themselves seemed to be build in a large circular pattern around the center point. Like a large city but the buildings were only made up of these temples. Vines and other plant life had grown all over these temples. They entered the temples and began scanning the writing. Each group tasked with certain jobs.

Vice Admiral Koff paced back and forward waiting for result of the search. "incoming scans, sir." Koff ran over to the 3D map and switched to the data feed. He looked over the scannings that had been sent to the ships. He went over everything but stopped on the writings. "These are Asmodian glyphs. Very old indeed, based on records, these match Egyptian culture. I want a further scans of these buildings. Pull the teams back and send in probes." This had been an interesting discovery. He is aware of the fact that the Asmodians controlled many universes but having temples out within the this sector, so far away from Earth. Interesting.

The recon team began to pack up their things. Probes flew into the temples and began to scan everything. They were tasked to scan the entire temple and its underground tunnels.

The systems of cave and pathways seemed to go on and on.Vice Admiral Koff simply watched the 3D map grow and grow. A Warrant Officer walked onto the deckand saluted the Admiral. "Sir, all report are coming in and we're setting up cities in the marked locations. All other territories are listed as protected by Nature Law." Koff saluted the man and nodded his head. Things indeed are going to plan, however, the temples is what keeps bugging him. There is something not right about it.

Within the system of caverns, one probe has found another room that seems to be generating heat. The probe floats its way into the chamber and a bolt of light strikes the probe, causing it to explode. A Warning and alerts pop up on the ships and scavenging teams. Vice Admiral Koff ruses over and looks at the message on screen. "I want men down there now, send in Nypherian H01's, A01's, and basic infantry now! Whoever shot my probe will pay!". On the planet, ships from the orbiting cruisers flew down and dropped off soldiers. All armed and ready for combat. The stormed all of the temples, ready for anything.

During the time the Nypherians focused their efforts, planet side. An armada began to build around the planet. While this fleet began to grow, many weapons platforms, and stabilities had been made. Aboard the large ship that sat in the middle of the fleet, Rear Admiral Mels Akeim over looked things. She had the map of Norma Prime on screen. She is being fed information due to the Monolith’s on the planet and the satellites receiving that information. This information is uploaded and given to her directly. She watched as the Nypherian forces all converged on the point labeled, “Lana”. “How long can she hold out?” he said mumbling to herself. She snarled at the data but turned it off. She walked over to the window of the ship. More and more ships warped in as her fleet grew.

On the planet, Nypherian troops ran through the hallways. They were soon meet with resistance.  A few could get the sightings of the beings that were shooting at them.

“They’re what?!” growled Koff, “Sir, they’re natives that are using Old Asmodian technology. They must be devout worshipers.” The Warrant Officer reported. This greatly annoyed Vice Admiral Koff. The fact that people were shooting at his soldiers and that they were Asmodian cultists. “I want them dead, do you hear me! Dead !”

The Nypherians began to gain ground as the natives were untrained. The exchange of fire began to die down. In one of the Temples tunnels, reports had indicated that all hostiles are dead. The group left and assisted the group that went into the Temple next to them.

On the surface, of the planet. The cities began to grow and expand. Ships now fly from city to city, dropping off supplies where ever it is needed. The armada continued to grow over the planet and the satellites orbited the planet. At this moment, there are 10 large cities growing and expanding to their marked sizes. The cities have been made to blend in with nature. Instead of metal structures growing and having things be void of nature. The structures are made to look as if nature is growing out of the structures. Everything is made to keep the grounds looking as if nature had never left.

There were mining operations that began to grow around the planet. They used methods to extra resources without destroying the environment. There were specific probes pulling rare metals from the ground. They are pulled from the ground in a liquid state. These liquids are picked up by the probes. These resources are then transferred to facilities on world. With such a resource expedition, this is the reason why a heavy Nypherian presence is on the planet.

In the temples, the gun fire continued. Nypherian forces had cleared only one temple. It has also officially confirmed that they are fighting an alien species. These aliens are using Asmodian weaponry and are wearing clothing that have Asmodian writing on them. Vice Admiral Koff watched the feed from the gun fight in the coms room. He watched as many of these people that were cultists die. "I want the rest of the planet scanned and l want any ruined buildings marked and explored."

"Status report" Vice Admiral Koff said as he glanced over his shoulder. "Reports say now 2 temples have been labeled as cleared. Other reports are saying that there are no more buildings within the planet. All Nypherian forces are within the enemy temples." Koff nodded his head towards the Warrant officer. He looked back towards the 3D map. On the planet, Nypherian forces have cleared out a third Temple. This made things easier but the concept of another species worshiping the Asmodians are becoming more annoying.

The temples that had been cleared are now marked to be destroyed. The remaining three are still listed as "danger". Frigates hovered above the Temples and awaited orders to bombard the buildings. Making sure that they crush the temples and cave in the tunnels. They had full read outs of the tunnels and knew they only entered and left through the temples. One of the Warrant Officers on the AC G20C Cruiser Class Frigate that hovered over the temple looked over the 3D map. He as well had been watching the battle feed. He placed his fingers on his ear and opened coms, "Sir, awaiting orders on obliteration strike."

The Warrant Officer in charge of the Frigate paced back and forward waiting for his approval to fire. He glanced over at the 3D map and focused on the last three temples. One had just been labeled cleared. He smiled quickly as the Nypherian Soldiers had easily cleared another Temple. They temples all slowly had been listed as cleared. He turned away from the 3D map and looked directly at the Data feed on the nearby computer. His coms channel opened up," Warrant Officer Grade 4, you are cleared to open fire. Wipe out those temples." he looked over the rest of his crew and nodded his head, "We have a go, weapons free".

The Frigate began to open fire, focusing its turbo lasers on the temples below. The power of the cannons easily ripped through the ground below. Sending clouds of smoke and dirt in the air. The ship kept firing until they had been given an order to stop. Below, the temples were gone and readings have shown that the tunnels had all fallen. If there were any worshipers left, they were all dead. "Good work people, begin operations of finishing Dominating the planet."

With the temples and its followers dealt with. The mission continued with the expanding of their cities. The probes were again free to move around the temple old locations. Knowing that the enemy would not bother them and that they were dead. This lead to cleaning up the damage the Frigate had done. The Frigate that had fired, slowly moved and went back into orbit. The armada had been growing for some time and it slowly began to reach its size limit. There were also other ships orbiting the planet and staying to guard the system.

They relayed orders and jobs for the probes to do. Slowly, the Void Citizens began to show up. Operations began to let people move in and finally find a home on the planet. Weapons platforms also began construction around the systems. These weapons platforms are became operational and began to scan the space around the planet. Vie Admiral Koff stood proud as he watched the Armada grow around the planet.

The planet had no come under Nypherian control. The Void citizens were living freely and openly on the planet. The Armada stood in its place, continuously growing. The orbiting satellites and the weapons platforms are now working at 100% efficiency. The traffic of flying civilian transports could be seen if you landed on the system. On the lead Flagship, Vice Admiral Koff turned away from the window and back towards his officers chair. "Men, the system is ours and we move towards our next dominion. Send the orders and move the fleet out.

A good portion of the Armada had left with Vice Admiral Koff. His fleet had grown and angle his ships towards the next destination point. "Men, prepare Frame Shift Drives and warp towards the next destination. Our next system will be, Scorix. On my mark.....mark." All the ships jumped into warp as they headed towards the next system to dominate. Another fleet warped into the system and moved to orbit the planet. Thus increasing the defense of the system.
