Warning! Meteor is approaching the atmosphere at a rate of 29,580 kilometers per second! Estimated time until re-entry: 58 minutes 9 seconds!
"What?! If this is some Sanctuarian trick... Size?"
Size is greater than the Moon. An approximate area of 28.46*1011 square kilometers, and mass is estimated at 9.685*1017 tons. An impact of this magnitude could potentially shatter the planet in two.
Incoming message from Sanctuary: This meteor is not our doing. We are doing everything in our power to divert it, but not even our lasers would have any effect upon a landmass so large... Therefore I must ask all of the nations of Zhi'Mar to aid us in destroying the meteor. You said it yourself: in order to conquer the world, there must be a world left to conquer.
"Admiral Serges. Fire the Ragnarök at that meteor!"
Incoming alert from Innerpeace: They are about to fire their 'ultimate weapon': Project APOCALYPSE. All space-based units and outposts are advised to evacuate. Repeat. All space-based units are advised to evacuate.
As he said this, a huge warhead with the Innerpeace logo was launched, rising up at great speed.
"...Those IDIOTS! All units, evacuate! I repeat, all units, evacuate!"
A myriad of ships were hastily launched from the Gjällarhorn and Chakra, trying to escape the blast area of the APOCALYPSE.
"Fall back to the Maëlstrom and await further orders to-- *transmission cut*"
It was too late. The APOCALYPSE had impacte, creating what appeared to be a condensed black hole above the planet, ripping everything, even the planet itself , inside it. All the spacecraft entering the atmosphere at this moment were completely destroyed.
Several moments later, everything reappeared, shifted way out of position. The continents have formed a sort of Pangaea, all joined together. The Heimdallr and the Vishnu had re-emerged on top of each other and consequently collided. The Chakra was dangerously close to the point of return, and the Shiva had suffered some serious damage to its outer energy sources. The Gjällarhorn survived the blast almost completely intact, thanks to the null-field deployed at the last second.
"AURIOS. Situation report. I want to know just what the fuck happened here."
No response.
"AURIOS! Damn, no response..."
The AURIOS bootup screen appeared on the monitor. Shortly after, the familiar female voice resounded.
Reboot complete. Awaiting instructions...
"Situation report. Everything that happened up to the moment of your shutdown."
The APOCALYPSE missile created a dimensional rift akin to a small black hole. All of Zhi'Mar and its atmosphere was ripped out of its place, creating this jumbled mass of land you see here. The Maëlstrom has collided with a landmass resembling what was once England XP.
Stratagem spacecrafts Heimdallr and Vishnu reappeared inside each other, violating the law of matter and consequently annhilating. All evacuating spacecraft were destroyed on re-entry. The Chakra's position is 200 kilometers above this planet's point of re-entry, putting it in danger. The Shiva Crown's energy field generation system is completely crippled, rendering its cannon useless. The Suzaku Dragon was also lost, and the Genbu Fortress has a water breach, leaving it inoperable for now. The other two Shiten-mon are unharmed.
"Damage report."
SHA-033-MSa1 Maëlstrom: Outer Bendezium shell structural integrity, 42.1%. A breach in the east sector A-12 has occurred. No damage to the inner sector's structure has been noted, but the power systems have suffered some damage as have some sensitive research systems. Mobility also seems to be an impossibility, at least for the moment. Full repairs will take at least two weeks.
SHA-310-CRh Chakra Rain: Outer Aznardite ring structural integrity, 71.42%. Energy reactor systems are stable, though output has been severely reduced. Most of the sensitive equipment is still intact, however. Repairs should complete in about six days.
SHA-311-SRi Shiva Crown: All seven energy field generators on board are crippled, rendering its armaments useless for some time. Several pieces of its Bendezium plating have been blown off. Repairs to the structure will complete in 33 hours 19 minutes. Repairs to the energy fields, however, will take considerably longer.
"Casualty report."
Heimdallr and Vishnu, one hundred three thousand. Gjällarhorn, three hundred sixteen. Chakra, nine thousand six hundred. Shiva, eight thousand two hundred. Maëlstrom, one hundred seventy-eight thousand. Space squadron Hraesvelgr, six hundred forty thousand. Total casualties, nine hundred forty thousand.
"So our military power has been severely crippled by this event... General Karst. Deploy the troops ashore and set up camp while repairs are completed. As this portion of land has no jurisdiction, we might as well gain a potential portuary base, with the added bonus of not angering the other nations. Send a scout batallion to the uncharted lands and report your findings. Send supplies and operable units to the Re-Unified Empire. They've fallen in a very vulnerable position now, and it is necessary to maintain our alliance."
"Yes, Lord Meister."
"Doctor Isaacs. Are you and the rest of the team all right?"
"Affirmative, herr Kaiser. Our projects have been severely set back because of this event, however. All the latest research data was lost in the AURIOS shutdown, and a lot of the projects under construction have collapsed..."
"Priorities have changed, Doctor. Focus on developing a system to make nano-scale repairs more efficient. Being able to survive situations like this with relatively few losses is paramount to our goals. Also, see if you can develop a power source similar to the GENESIS drives used by Innerpeace. Maintaining power in such events is critical."
"Acknowledged, herr Meister."
"AURIOS. Do we still have external communications systems?"
Affirmative, sir. All comms systems are up and running.
"Contact the Coalition. Innerpeace must answer for this event."
Taking the olive-green land below England XP. Color: Gray, Name: Aleph-01.
