6 weeks have passed since first contact with Vellari. When Dorothy arrived at the Earth colony she was able to blend-in and acquire more intelligence on Vellari than Polaris ever could, but it was futile. The Federation leadership had already decided to welcome the new visitors by choosing option 1. Within hours all high-level androids took control of enough ships to get themselves far out of Federation space as soon as possible. Shortly after, they were followed by Flynt and Dorothy aboard Kronos together with several dozen officers and their families, while Shadow carried Polaris and her own team of droids. One of the Vampire clans also decided to tag along, apparently eager for new adventures. 2000 light years from Earth the fleet came upon a large planet with plant life and decided to stay. Meanwhile, news started trickling-in from Vampires that remained back home who were not only immune to the Vellari slave-virus, but learned to easily blend in with the human population to become perfect undercover reporters, and what they saw was exactly what Dorothy foresaw -- Earth governments have collapsed and all of humanity now believes they are finally serving true Gods and the eternal glory they will bring. ------------------ (AI input, PSP and manual postwork)
