Prelude to The Battle for El'Yrilo
'Admiral, we have just dropped out of hyper-space and the target is in view.'
'Very good, get the fleet into position around the planet and then transmit the audio message.'
'Yessir.'
A few minutes later, the entire Aphraean fleet, including the four brand-new dreadnoughts, was orbiting the Hut planet, known as El'Yrilo to the Aphraeans, and down on the surface, the Hut heard the following recorded audio-message
'You failed to reply to our earlier missives and our messenger ships never returned, we can surmise but one thing - you are a hostile race and untrustworthy. However, we are a moral people and agree to escort you to The Heart of Armageddon, where you may find welcome or you may not. If you fail to leave, we will destroy your buildings, your people and everything which is of thou and thine. We give you 10 ferilan* to reply.'
Silence followed and on the spacecraft of the Aphraean fleet everyone awaited the reply.....
*ferilan are the standard Aphraean timekeeping units, one ferilan equals 1 earth minute and 27 seconds, there are seventeen ferilan in an ourmi and sixty two ourmi in an Aphraean day, giving a slightly longer than Earth day.
