Dev Shadows of Atrisia

[Junko Ike]

There was more to it as she could see the droids... specifically the biots that were being set up for the princess to be able to use. Other defenses that they would be able to operate aside from non lethal ones were important to the cause as well... there was just the important aspect as Barca understood of obscuring them... layering them so anyone trying to attack would be drawn in and then cut off first or better yet like some of the palace defenses on the exterior... walk into aa trap. Animals from the island of a more hostile nature were here and secluded away from others with feeding schedules and means that they were kept vicious and wild but controlled.

There was the other part about the construction efforts... the buildings being made outside of the main town were for lack of a better term... natural and built into the artifical forests... massive trees and areas near the laake that blended in and allowed soldiers, mercenaries and those who were important access to her island and what was here. THe underground was also developing as they developed it and connected it to the natural rocks and caves that werre below the surface. With underwater facilities that she was able to see on a map and served even greater purposes. Most would never know that island was artificial.. even less that there was an entire city down below.

 

[Junko Ike]

Which that was something she would have to work with.. something she would have to check on as well the status of the underground was beneficial to the island and the ones who worked down there were just as important to her if not more since they worked and lived rarely coming up to the surface by choice... nothing stopped them and the deeper into the lower levels you went well.. the more mechanical the island become but they were being skilled now. Better resource management, better power generation and better conditions meant that they worked hard for aall to benefit but they also got to enjoy as many of the technological advances like their simulators and transportation network.

Junko started pulling up the information and communication logs... Min was there and she motioned her over as they were sitting around with a smile on her face. "How is everythign else proceeding?" SHe said it and checked on some of the different reports.. they were maaking more progress into the surface and connecting more struts.. the island was artifical yes but they were connecting it with thick and sturdy connections so it was almost a part of the natural landscape.. whcih was the goal with the other islandss even if they had to grow outwards and expand it to make sure there was a powerful and full base to start.

 

[Junko Ike]

That was one of the things they would be able to show off hopefully and bring to alderaan... the possibility of their terraforming technologies and reports of what they had been managing to do after all.. it worked with other commonwealth worlds to show them what they signed up for. Then there was the possibility of well expanding it... rapid terraforming and cutting down the generational incremental changes was important.. they might not be able to do it in an instant but being able to make the changes. She had other ideas about how to do it but if they could well it would make colonization, revitalization and settling on worlds for others much much easier.

Her thoughts had time to be occupied in this endeavor thankfully.. she was able to settle plenty of their actions and the reports from their financials.. their bolstering of sales within and outside of the Commonwealth which was bringing in a lot more in terms of beneficial income... they sold things at average prices and high prices.. were well regarded and bolstered their own capabilities if they had the chance. So it benefited them in this endeavor at least and the jedi princess wanted to expand it as they were reaching all markets within the galaxy thanks to well Sasori and their diverse shipyards at least.

 

[Junko Ike]

She didn't have to rush.. she had time to indulge herself.. she had times to plan out and think about what they were doing and what they had going on... that was beneficial to her at least and would go a longer way towards her new goals in the Commonwealth.. it wasn't just about traveling around though she would be doing thaat.. she would go back to enjoying the fruits of her labor and checking on any number of things around the Commonwealth... no she would be able to use the next couple of days to plan out some of the better and more excited features of the plan... specifically well she wanted to vaastly improve the materials.

The woods used by the commonwealth was standard... planks created to give the ancient look and feel but if they could do it correctly manufacturing it so that it could be natural, longer lasting and more sturdywell... she wasn't opposed to it and it would allow them to preserve their worlds resources and beauty... no need to cut down trees unless they needed to and clearing them away to prevent fire hazards.. there wa sa lot that could go into it and if they could augment the wood just enough to abiently pick up and enhance the force energy around an area generally lightside energy from life well making it harder for darksiders isn't a terrible thing.

 

[Junko Ike]

The wood material would only be the start.. the metal frames were needing to be designed in a way that they could prove beneficial as well.. self repairing was the way to go and strong.. Sasori's newest materials were designed to absorb elements and if they could make ones for kinetic and energy absorption then it would be beneficial to their goals... For construction at least... it would likely be super heavy construction wise so buildings wouldn't get knocked over and they wouldn't be gettin gflung around... but breaking them with explosions and orbital strikes or even earthquakes would prove difficult. She had ideas for it and well glass that would mimic the rice paper style.

Then there was well making economically friendly.. something affordable to manufacture.... but strong enough and without the massive price tag that they could update and reinforce other structures. Fixing some of the oldest buildings with new frames and paneling would not be practical if it was overly expensive but they could do it.. they could eventually haave their oldest sites renovated as they planned into becoming something massive and impressive so it would be preserved for another hundred thousand years and the Atrisian people would be able to visit it... since they had the other planets now which would be doing the same.

 

[Junko Ike]

They were even discovering other elements... new materials they could infuse into structures to add properties thanks to their bangmangi station which still used the dreaming to become a sort of wonder elements.. the raw matter it allowed being highly exotic and almost weightless compared to other materials... and it opened the possibility that they could literally mine and farm other pocket dimensions of hyperspace for resources which drastically lowered their needs to trade with outside mining interests... instead they could be an exporter of some of the best and charge what they wanted since few in the galaxy could beat the terms of quality they presented.

She had other ideas abbout what they could and would be able to do as well.. aside from technologies, ships and supplies there was food... they managed to above all modify safely several types of food stuffs and rations so that they could feed millions with little expenditure. THey had kilometers of rich farmland and using well their fabrication technology they could till and replenish the soil as needed to restore and even overfill the nutrients... making overfarming a thing of the past... livestock grazing as well with the genetically modified and self replenishing grass they were creating... all a better means of terraforming but also a means to improve lives.

 

[Junko Ike]

There was also what they could improve in their terraforming efforts.. the newest technologies they had developed and she could see the specs were rapid fabrication technologies... projectors that built biot droids seemingly out of thin air when in reality it pulled matter from a pocket dimension while converting it within the span of a neuron spark. IF they could continue to improve upon and adapt that technology as a science they could create rapid terraforming tech for colonizing and rebuilding places... restoring farms and food or even droid workers in locations that required them because of daanger to the living.

There was of course dangers aas well but so far much like the krampus syste that was developed... it waasn't being used full scale yet and if they could well... once they were able to ramp up the production capabilities of it... well the real fun would begin. A massive network of hyperspace slingshots able to send people and equipment anywhere in the galaxy without a ships... faster then normal travel and with precision thanks to its design... yeah she could see that both presenting problems but also solutions. The commonwealth would be desirable as an ally possibly.... it would be something to have since they produced and would be the highest of technology producers.

 

[Junko Ike]

The potential for what they wanted... for what the emperor and empress envisioned was well... it was easier to go with as she had improved upon more then just one or two ideas... they also had expended it as means to educate and indoctrinate... she didn't deny they were doing a lot of it with their alliers who came and were adopted into the Atrisian cultural structure... they brought things and what was good was incorporated but mostly they changed gradually to aid and create less friction... they weren't going to have clashing ideals and fights break out and they didn't invite those who would just staunchly hold as fundamentalists.

There was of course more as well.. they valued traditional and educational purposes which was why the divide between modern and aancient Atrisia... the more futuristic design of Neo Atrisia was well... sprawling cityscapes with massive industry and the means for them to effectively build, house and feed billions even possibly trillions should it arise and with their improved technologies they were not going to have to abandon the lowesst levels.. if anything it might actually thrive more because they had self repairing and nearly indestructible materials in place for the infrastructure that could be modified with their droids as needed and artificial environmental controls.

 

[Junko Ike]

Along with the artificial environments there waas the biots... now that they had a baseline template... a model that could for lack of a better idea be pushed and upgraded as needed they were better able to handle things... they were able to let them work on upgrading the systems... interfacing with AI's and working in the hazard areas that might be produced but they were trained and programmed to be able to do that as well as serve in case of problems as combat models. THey were worked on and developed for these purposes and well their coordinator model could upgrade them further... that they could be built to spec with the new fabricator boxes well only meant Sasori had reached a new height.

THen well she knew they were working on even more... they had some of the best in terms of equipment, droids, AI and even ships... other governments would well... they had things usually a gimmick.... Sasori and by extension the Commonwealth well worked to make sure their ships were some of the longest lasting and best maintained... from advanced repair drones that maintained the ship... to advanced power systems that were smaller and harder to damage... weapon systems that allowed them to protect theirselves.... the shielding well no one was able to match that in the last decade nor the solar collection technologies.

 

[Junko Ike]

There was more.. they had developed improved rations for soldiers and travelers... real food that tasted fine, filled the bellies and waas good for the body.. and the compartments it waas in allowed it to be kept smaller.. out of the way as well as replenish itself... their fabrication and duplication technology was far above anything else being produced by the other companies or governments in the galaxy to the point... they didn't need to as much innovate and make a better product then they could just experiment and see what else it could be added to or put on. Self replenishing rations, food fabricators built into survival packs... water cleaners....

THen they had well they had developed repair tools that broke down and rebuilt any number of pieces of damaged equipment.. they had designed it... improved upon it... encouraged it to become mini sized and smaller could be better. The result was tech division armor and the quartermasters robes for the jedi which had built in fabricators to the hands... it was the biot boxes for quickly producing biot droids and the pinnicle being the frontline projector which basically created them out of thin air by siphoning matter from around and pocket dimensions... so an infinite source of matter they could access and program.

 

[Junko Ike]

That programming of matter for their fabricators was well the most important.. it was the basis for the majority of their technologies and what made well their production for cost effective... they didn't need to spend huge amounts of credits mining... they did but they were able to stockpile and use that material at their own pace.... then continue to mine their own and maintain steady employment for their workers. It was more sustainable for their farming as well and they had the ability to access well infinite pocket dimensions for their purposes of conversion and the dark energy or matter in those would be near infinite.

Their powerful production was what fueled their anshin systems afterall and those protected the planets which in the system went an even longer way... as they increased their use across the commonwealth and were starting to build them around worlds to protect planets and moons... with varying sizes able to be utilized. In some cases the anshin itself over gas giants serving for the capital but the moons being resource filled and rich in storage purposes. Then there was the rare but able to be used rogue planets that could be found... lost systemss and their ability to tie it all into the Atrisian network with buffers and relays for transportation.

 

[Junko Ike]

Mentally she chuckled to herself... the transportation network was one of the other things they had no one else did... experimental in thaat they couldn't mass produce it sure but they were able to use it across the Atrisian system as one large thing and were bringing the krampus in as a means to get between systems with instead of a random location the network acting as a sort of anchor point and then only at key ones could they use a second kramapus to go between systems... but once you were in you could go all over... which meant they could move cargo and supplies without ships between worlds... no risk of pirates.

Which endangered ones like Latyuo and Supisy... but they got to work and do plenty still there was always a need of transport pilots... there was aalways a need for skilled pilots aand workers... she would never put them out of a job she would just shift some of the job as it were. The grin remained in her head as they were expanding the network internally as well aacross the planets themselves with each palace on Atrisia... eaach major city and bunkers or places of importance being logged into slightly different networks for different purposes. For guard, cargo or civilian movements and then planetary movements and system movements.

 

[Junko Ike]

Then there was more logistical works within the network that they were doing such as colonies and connecting them... Latyuo and Supisy had helped with that as well as a few others. Secreting away the equipment and supplies for their droids to begin manufacturing it and connecting the colonies... a means of automation that might be good or bad depending on how you look upon it... she preferred to look at it as a good thing but others might think differently and she could blame them if the biots and droids outlasted the Atrisians and continued to build or expand and tens of thousands of years after they were gone... extinct like many others the biots were still functioning.

She had seen reports about worries like that but the biots were not blindly loyal... they were but not in the way that they would continue long after their masters had gone extinct.. they were not the silentium or abmonitors... remnants from another galaxy that had destroyed their own along with the vongs worlds... rendering them inhospitable and unable to be lived upon leading all three groups to slowly travel thousands of years between galaxies.... they were not programmed for something like that but they likely would maintain Atrisia and eventually forget that they were made becoming the remains of the civilization that would inherit it.

 

[Junko Ike]

A little morbid to think about but practical... the Atrisianss had a mentality of preserving their ways yes but they also knew that they wouldn't live forever and for the most part they wouldn't want to... stagnation would be just as bad as not making an impact as clinging to life made one greedy but too short of a life meant they might not be able to help plan for the future of their families. SHe knew her family would well.. the Ike clan would be around they had expanded across the galaxy through the centuries and were in a dozen or more worlds.. they had established ties on planets some barely even knew existed and trained themselves to become powerful force users.

There was also the family fortune... which well compared to many things was consindered vast by even the standardds of the rich... they worked and they funded and they helped but they also sold and raan shops on all of the worlds some known and some unknown that they owned and invested in. THey would just have to come up with the plan if it was perfect enough and Junko thought about better ways to expand her own legacy or what she could do to make an impact... she wanted to after all improve said lives bbut also liked comfort.. she liked being the princess of Atrisia most knew and a jedi princess if she wanted to say it.

 

[Junko Ike]

There were other princesses and princes.. what they didn't realize were the sansin were adopted royals... hundreds of them who wanted a place to live and exist. There was much more to it but the well all of them served a purpose and she could see their reports as she thought about it and well the computer of her interface gave her what she needed.. the speed of thought from the kirano showing their reports.. their figures and how it all worked together to create the base of the Commonwealths economic strength... more the ones who were offworld and in the colonies of the system added to it as they expanded outwards working on those planets.

THe worlds within the commonwealth were one thing.. they were in some places overseen by the sansin and welcomed by the people... in others well it was their own people... the planets, moons and stations of interest in the Atrisian system itself were all overseen by them and from them there was another group above them that oversaw each hemisphere of the planet... then they were overseen by the emperor and empress. Junko oversaw just as much as the emperess and empreror and helped them in their task but below her were an army of sansin as it were functioning to make the planets work and the people content and happy.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko looked at some of the things they were able to ly out with that as well.. improved upon and designed to be far more reaching. Below the Sansin each had their aids who oversaw operations and were keeping each other in check... corruption might happen but it was made to be observed and stopped. The AI assistance as it didn't take over completely operations aided this as it reported directly and was largely unable to lie to them about what was happening while reporting anything odd or a discrepancy in numbers. Juko's aids were an example of how it should be done but the others handled things as needed and her handmaidens were trained as well.

Then below the aids were well thousands of people... technicians, merchants, farmers, supervisors.... any number to make sure the massive network and machine functioned properly. With all of the work that they were doing well it would make it easier for them and they were able to turn around plenty for themselves. With all of her aids well she had even more being worked on.. the island was artificial after all sothey spent the bulk of their time improving upon it and seeing what new systems they would be able to bring into the works... which she needed to visit there before her date.. it was a quick trip down into the lift and inner workings of her island plus the people there were welcoming.

 

[Junko Ike]

THat in mind she had a new destination at least.... she knew what and where she needed to be going as the jedi princess walked through the palace taking mental notes to herself about a few other things... she went to the massive lift in the palace and it was central to well... the palace there wasn't much else for it as she smile and with several handmaidens started to head down. THe lift was well short... the palace had been built with being able to access the underground city easily enough and it was under the island with some space for caves and rock to exist. Junko could see it as they descended down into the depths and the cityscape opened up.

It wasn't massive, it wasn't vast it was well there was an open area that allowed them to have several stories, a park and even an artificial lake. More then that well there was all of the people... beautiful and loyal they were families of her retainers, workers and even handmaidens who had chosen to come here. Some of Barca's clan even had come and with some restrictions were allowed to be down here... mostly the ones that she could absolutely trust not to betray and their alor well made sure of it in some ways since this was a home and sanctuary for some of them as well as a steady means of credits. They worked here and they were protected so loyal enough and small enough.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko would well she would be able to work with that and Barca was the one who had introduced and trusted them which went a long way. She wasn't the easily trusting sort... easily swayed by pretty girls might be another story sure but easily trusting enough to endanger her desired conquest well... Junko was playing on her selfishness and wanting to be the master in their little dance. The rest well it all came into being and provided much much more in terms of capabilities... the jedi who came here from other worlds were fiercely lightsided.. they didn't half measure it and they were not going to risk new darksiders... their allies were also important for influencing them.

Junko could see more here as the Atrisians down in the inner workings well.. they stood tall and proud not really acting differently then the ones above... there wasn't a divide between them they just chose to be down here and expand deeper into the ground where new methods to make the clan they were allied with, where new chances to improve their own status and coffers were. THe jedi princess met with them and offered bows, thanks and smiled... some wanted and had drinks, others food and all of them could share in the revelry that was well their improving lives since Atrisia was improving the commonwealth several times over.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko stepped out into the small park though... meeting the people. Kimono's and work clothing as she walked and for a moment a few seemed to do a double take... then realizing who she was they came out and greeted her. Some of the children smiling as Junko bowed her greeting to them. Others she recognized personally and talking with them worked to find out all that she could while her mind went several miles a minute putting names to faces and recalling the most important things about them from when they served under her or their parents, sisters, brothers. THey all served her and they were all important but she had not met all of them... yet.

"Thank you all." She said it and greeted a few more getting updates about their families... meeting some of their children who were there and in some cases getting to talk with them but all the while moving forward. Towards the marketplace where she was able to be in the center of the bustling under section and able to observe the towers acting like pillars of the lower works. She knew they were doing more and the internal tram system was being loaded with manufactured equipment which would then be transported and shipped across Atrisia... stockpiled or in some cases sent offworld and sent to the different areas of need... the back up stockpiles were well a reserve and for times of need.

 

[Junko Ike]

The stockpile moons were something that well their maintained and were something that would need to be worked on as they were massive warehouses full of stasis equipment to preserve... dimensional compression technology to effectively make them obscenely massive and with them they could fabricate and produce almost infinitely. THat would be the real trick if they could manage it... the production facilities internally which would need to be automated and shielded from the pocket dimensions radiation... if they did it all correctly well they would have resource intensive heavy moons over each world able to provide for the people on the planet.

Which would as their engineers and scientists looked was proposed for a scarcity issue as they exponentially progressed towards a massive civilization.. if they could maintain the resources vs population without going into the red well then growth would be able and something much superior to others who scrambled to take other worlds. It would also function iof Atrisia ever went the way of making a galactic scene... their signature, leave a moon on the planet producing for the people tens of millions of supplies for each being on the world to have them fed and clothed... not exactly a bad way to overtake.
