I heal you, I hurt you. I heal you again. Forever
An interesting month would be the way the Holy Protector would describe these recent events. With the first actual contact of an alien race as well as finding of many new valuable resources on many of the planets that have been colonized. It was all quite exciting. These 'Vurax' as they called themselves were very unique and exotic to the sentinels. All the evolution models that the sentinels had came up with had always predicted that the only species able to gain sentience would either be mammals or reptilians. Sentient insects were an oddity that they had never expected. Once word of this new species got to to the public, practically the entire species wanted to go and meet the newcomers and find out every little detail about them, some were even making plans to move to the planets of this new race despite the fact that no one really knew were they came from yet. In a way it was pandemonium. Things did quickly die down however, though the way the entire species thought was forever changed. Either way, The Holy Protector was still wary of these Vurax, he was still unsure about their intentions, and until he knew more about them, he could not let his people do anything concerning them.
In terms of research, outposts have found something termed "living metal". This name was a fitting description of the material as no matter what is done to it it will always try and retain its original forged shape. Even more interesting was the fact that the property did not activate until after it was made into a shape, meaning its original extracted form is not affected. The Holy Protector had immediately issued orders for plans to refit all of the navy's ships with a layer of this material for added protection. Another very interesting discovery was Luxio dust. This dust could turn deserts into fertile farmlands when it was being tested, and more was already being isolated and extracted for further use in the empire.
Elsewhere things were less interesting. The Navy's ships had built their respective outposts and where for the time being halted for the empire to collect itself, lest it collapse from over-expansion to quickly. A new ship was also ordered to be made. Roughly the same size as the Lookout and Shepard, this will hopefully help with the expansion and defending of the Sentinels territory. The time to make it was projected to be half a year at full production speed. Until all this finishes however, the Holy Protecter continued to gaze at the stars, he was surprised by the Vurax, and he continued to wonder what other surprises could show themselves.
