Fiction:Cognatus Remnant

The Cognatus Remnant was formed in the aftermath of the Intergalactic War, when the Thirteenth Tribe portal redirected the Cognatus Fleet from the Realm of the Gods directly into Catharsis territory, as punishment for their xenocidal campaign.

However, a group of Cognatus survived in the Cyrannus Galaxy, and continue their quest for more Atlantican artefacts to love and worship.

Early History
The Cognatus Alliance was very near to the complete destruction of the United Republic of Cyrannus in the final year of the Intergalactic War, making them retreat to their capital planets of the Twelve Colonies. However, even after defeating the Allies and sending them to their knees, the Cognatus began to excavate a portal, which was believed to lead to the Realm of the Gods. However, when the Cognatus fleet entered it, they were relocated by the Thirteenth Tribe to Catharsis territory, where they were infected with the purity virus.

However, a small group of Cognatus survived this and began to wonder the stars for other artefacts that would return them to their former glory. However their power was severally weakened and they began to question their capacity to wage war on the heretics of the URC and the Quadrants, and even their faith in the gods. They went into a seclusion of sorts from the galaxy, secretly and quietly searching for Atlantican artefacts. However, recently a beacon alerted them to one in Quadrant 82...

Recent History
The leader of the Remnant, Voro'Acetee picked up the signal, which he recognised as a beacon of his gods, the Atlantica. He followed the beacon with a large fleet to the planet of its origins, unaware of its position as an important planet of Rambo Nation. When he fleet excited slipspace he was shocked to see that his former enemies had a large fleet over the planet's surface. Enraged, he immediately opened fire, disabling two Rambo ships and a single Venator-class Star Destroyer, but as the battle waged on, he began to take casualities, with one Cognatus Battlecruiser being destroyed by a Victory-class Star Destroyer. The heretics have grown in firepower it seems, he thought to himself.

However, eventually his fleet was victorious and although casualties were great on both sides, the Cyrandia evacuated as many citizens as possible and retreated. Voro'Acetee went down to the surface of the planet and retrieved the artefact, a great symbol of the might of the gods, yet now he wondered, how would the allies react.

As Voro explored the artefact, he learned that the gods were angry with the Intergalactic War and the crimes the Cognatus committed. After much research, he saw the errors of his way and when Empress Ramashe proposed a truce, he accepted and went to the meeting, where to his surprise, the two Cyrandia leaders were actually very honourable, something that Voro respects. The three leaders left the meeting in peace.

During the Third Year of the, the Remnant were done with their preparations and started to aid the Cyrandia Alliance. Their first act was to aid General Sesoka in his battle against a Grox Cube in planet Temomyho. A CCS Class Battlecruiser was sent to aid Sesoka in his battle, saving him and part of his scout team. The general greeted and thanked the Cognatus ship, leaving the Remnant very satisfied.

Now, the Remnant's fleets remain on standby for a Cyrandia call for aid.

Voro'Acetee
Voro'Acetee is the leader of the Cognatus Remnant and represents it in political and military affairs. He was born on an unknown world at the height of the Cognatus' Alliance's reign and from a young age he was brought up as a fierce but honourable warrior. He soon joined the ranks of the Cognatus military and by the time of the Intergalactic War, he was the Fleet Master of the Fleet of Harmonious Rapture, one of the foremost bodies used in the extermination of the URC and the Rambo.

He was left in disarray when the Cognatus vanished, and took command of the forces that remained, forming the Remnant. After many years searching the galaxy for the artifacts of the gods of the Atlantica, he came across a signal which led him to Koerband, a colony of Rambo Nation, where to his surprise a large allied fleet awaited him. A short battle occured, but Voro was victorious and landed near to the artifact that sent the signal. He learned much about the Gods, and found that the genocide of the Rambo and the URC was in fact, a mistake. Soon afterward, Ramashe of Rambo Nation proposed a truce, which Voro accepted, and a meeting between Ramashe, Voro and President Apollo was called, which Voro attended. He enjoyed the meeting and learning more about all the cultures of the Cyrandia Alliance, before leaving in peace.
