Sorry for the confusion, but that was what I meant by the six islands: Airosamete, Setauket, Armoria, Nelaga, Solaria, Maraguo.

For the actual concept box of antigravity, it's been hidden away (for more details, look at the old Nelagan forums), but in theory JASO is still operative on Amity, directed by Vur'Alm Xei'Bôn, and owned by Shireroth. And it wouldn't surprise me were there a couple workers left at JASO who had access to the original concept box, and hence (while they couldn't explain it to others), would understand antigravity enough to design plans to use it, and given the immense level of attention the Shirithian government has paid to JASO since gaining control of it, I'm sure many people would notice if one or two of those workers went missing :p

I certainly can't fault you for quickly capitalising on an opportunity...

Antigravity has my attention. I'm surprised Hurmudan gate technology isn't on the list.

During my time as leader of Maraguo, I established the Apollo Research Centre that also researched Jasonian and Nelagan antigravity.

Maraguan Scientists didn't succeed in creating the engines yet, but the research centre might still be of some interest. http://bastionunion.org/forum/viewtopic ... 46&t=10288

I just, uh, "spoke" to Soreaa's secretary. Apparently her regime had a secret air and space base approximately where the bailiwicks of Karmanjoomrime, Michaelion and Zionobaake. Ever heard of the village called enu Behemozion? Well, it's not really a village except on the maps. That's a base. I mean, who'd even call his own village "place of the Behemoth"? So silly. Wait, there are silly names in Ardashirshahr. Isn't Elfinshiye Hafiz "the grave of the Elfinshi"? I should study Babkhi a bit more.

Anyway, this secretary told me that once the hand-over was completed, the base has been locked down, and the workers apparently moved to Amokolia. The most important thing is that he said that the Kaiser Ayreon was there. I'm not sure of what condition. He had a seizure at this point.

Fortunately he's receiving the best standards of care at Tyroor Hospital. Hopefully he'll be able to... assist... us a bit more when he's... uh... feeling better.

Warden Jasonides,

A promising beginning. I am sure that the IAP will welcome the opportunity of conducting their first survey in the field, in Cape Farewell, in winter... in any event I am sure that the enu Behemozion site will offer us some interesting findings.

It has come to my notice that the Hyperboreans deployed a fleet of Gravships to Aryasht during the notorious AI Wars that destroyed Antica and Albion. His Serenity the Conducator, as Warden of the Northern Marches and Observer of the Raikothlin will be petitioned to dispatch an expedition to the Bailiwick of Anshir to enquire about this and to acquire any functioning technology that may be found (it is almost certain that the Raikothlin will either refuse to cooperate or that their answers will not translate well and that a more kinetic form of engagement may prove appropriate).

Senator Lewis,

I am not quite sure how you found your way onto this distribution list, but welcome in any event. Please make enquiries and see if there are any surviving and presently underemployed Maraguan Scientists looking for new opportunities to apply their skills and methodologies to a high profile engineering project in a stimulating environment with a generous benefits (including field trips to study the physical principles underpinning the Higher Sphere).

A strange note arrives addressed to "IAP Antigravity Kitchens Ltd., Eliria":

NO WE DON'T NEED A NEW KITCHEN! But do keep us on your mailing list as some of your other services look rather interesting. It so happens that our late ascended grandmother was traded a copy of that "Project Mortis" by a Euran used camel merchant in return for a pair of assembly-training zombots and some of our people have spent the last four centuries working on it. Fascinating...and potentially useful too, as I tend to travel with a great deal of heavy luggage.

OOC: I'm interested in doing a race type scenario for the gravship, military AI, and/or ocular implants. :)
