Atlan-Year 19,756 ID Day 300/350

   The nauseous feeling had been with Cleora since she woke up that morning, you know, like you think you are going to throw up but the minute you go to the toilet it subsides. It upset her for more than just that she felt bad, Today was the day that she and her family were going to the cradle of humanity ( according to the history books that is ) she was excited to see what it looks like. She heard that it was once green but now is a brown desert apart from the poles which are frozen 300 feet down. unfortunately she couldn`t go past the jump station with her virus. she hadn`t expected to hear anything from them until that night.

     She got a message from Victoria, The advisor to the throne and also one of the few her mother trusted to take care of her and her siblings, on her Holo-Tablet: " Please come to the comms room, Empress." Now that was concerning, she thought, no one ever called me to the comm- wait did she just call me Empress? She ran down the hall Panicking, it didn`t help that when she went in to the room Victoria had a solemn expression on her face. " I'm so sorry, Cleora just got report that the ship your family was on was shot down. the final footage from the ship shows an unknown ship class was seen flying by and firing upon the ship."

"No, no you have to be lying, you have to be seriously fucking lying." she said " They can`t really be dead right?" " I`m sorry, but their personal life monitor systems show no pulse. You are the new empress." said Victoria. This can`t really be happening right? she thought she knew some people didn`t love her parents, but no one inside the Empire would dream of it. She remembered what her mother had told her a couple months before, that if anything happened and she was left in charge, gae Hugo, don`t let him lead, but let him help you. The issue was the Eclipse, the royal ship was now floating in space. "Tell the Imperial Salvage Department to bring the ship back and repair it, I will be traveling to Epsilon next week." she said " Epsilon? Why there." Victoria said " Because the patterns in that ship had the orbital pattern of the EE system." "i will instruct Gerret to start working on it." " Thanks Victoria" Cleora said as she started back to her room, Then the nausea hit her again, it was the thought that this god damn cold was the one thing that kept her from being killed along with the rest of my family, well almost all, her uncle Hugo was still alive. "Vic?" "Yes Ma`am" " Get a message out to Hugo, ask him to come to The palace." " are you sure ma`am?" "Yes, and wake me when they Respond." "Absolutely, I can also have the chefs bring you something to eat." "no I`m okay" In truth she was too shocked and distraught to eat right now. The assassins may have killed her family but, in time they would come to regret it.
