Outer-system of Teth...
"Well, this was an extremley fucked up piece of work." commented one of the capitan's now assembled into the briefing room aboard the Draconis. The Star Dragon Fleet cruiser was the new flagship for the taskforce at hand while the old ship was towed away torwards the repair yards of the Tion Cluster.
"Indeed. But this affects our resources only for the moment. Remember, our initial orders was to deploy in system for a show of force, you know, gunboat diplomacy. But as fate would have it, we ended up under the guns of a Coalition force, and they opened fire first, too, and thusly we had to defend ourselves." said the Admiral.
"So?" asked the captian.
"This means at least one thing for the moment. While our intentions were not entirely peaceful at all, the Coalition did open fire on a envoy to the world. If they declare war because of this battle, they would be seen as the aggressors, not us. This may help to provoke the New Order to come into the war on our side, as our old agreements would suggest after the Corellia Incident." said the Admiral.
"True. So putting that aside for the moment, what are our orders." asked the capitan.
"Re-group, Repair, Re-arm. We don't want a war with the Coalition, so we will be sending a much more peaceful envoy to the planet of Teth next time around, which is coming up very soon. But if they go ahead and declare one, then we will be ready." said the Admiral.
With that, the remaining vessels of Dameo jumped into hyperspace. The battle of Teth was over.
