I'm together once again, all synced up. The memories of Captain Neil's sacrifice were... very interesting. It evoked a rather intense emotional reaction. Sadness, pride, and even a sense of loss. As well as shame that I was powerless to prevent his death.
When I finished disseminated the black bo...

Probably a lot more fleets. Even I was a bit surprised to learn that both the Republic and the Omni-Union had 250 million ships. Unfortunately that bit of news has made it to the civilians, and armchair admirals are already pronouncing the United System's defeated. Thankfully we've managed to keep a lid on the xenocidal nature of the threat, otherwise there wou...

Hello everyone! As a thank you for your patronage I present the following bonus content. This is a rough draft of the nanite plague that I thought you might enjoy reading.
When humanity began testing for the A1 they began with a proof of concept that would give the nanites involved a wider AOE. What they failed to realize was that the nanites activated before the device detonated which caused the nanites to "infect" several personnel aboard the ship carrying the device.
The origin...

"You're welcome," Director 3 said. "Now, there is something that we have to discuss. In preparation for offensive action against the omni-union we sent scouts into their territory. Just before the attack on Sol we discovered an alien planet that had been attacked by the Omni-Union. There were no survivors of this alien race."

An old an unnamed god slept within a jungle, long forgotten by the world.
A young monkey played within the jungle, having gained independence from its parents.
The two met when the young monkey woke the god with its antics, and the two became friends.
Much had changed since the god had slept, and the monkey del...

A/N: This is a trashy smut novel set in the "The New Species" universe. I thought it would be an amusing challenge to write outside of my established genre. This novel is written by a human being who has never met nor researched an Alumari. They also haven't been to Earth. So this is essentially a stylized depiction that is not accurate to the actual universe of "The New Species". This probably won't get a sequel.
