Unknown Waters, IBS Scipio, January 8th 2022

Captain Alexander Doukas looked as the foreign destroyers stopped just 5000 meters from his ships, guns were poised on them, there was a tense silence as neither side made any attempts to go towards the other. 

When the foreign barbarians waved a flag with the peace symbol, he had a cruiser flash a light on it, to show they had "Peaceful" intentions. But things were going nowhere, that was until he saw a Rubber craft fall into the water with a few barbarians inside it.

"Barbarians coming towards our ship, let us greet them like civilized people" Alexander Said

His Bridge nodded. He made his way outside with a few marines. After a while, the Barbarians were helped onto the Deck, The Captain looked amazed by the size of the ship. 

Captain Alexander Doukas And his Men approached the man, Captain Alexander Doukas then saw he was a Captain. 

He grit his teeth as Honor had to play and He could not speak too lowly to him. But before he could speak, the Other man spoke first, in a Near Perfect Latin, As if he was a Native Speaker for his entire life.

"Greetings Foreigners, I am Captain Milo of the Kua Toine Republican Navy, May you state why you have entered our waters? And without contacting Us?'' Captain Milo asked

Captain Alexander Doukas looked at him with his eyes wide open before he conducted himself once again and proudly beat his fist onto his Chest.

''I Am Captain Alexander Doukas Of the Byzantine Empire, Great State of Romulus and Constantine! My mission is to explore the world and bring Suzerainty and Civilization to the World'' Captain Alexander Doukas explained.

Captain Milo was silent before he fell to his Knees, so did the other Kua Toineans. Captain Alexander Doukas was confused, he expected them to be offended and force him to fire on their ships.

''Oh the Gods be Blessed, They have returned! Our Saviors!'' Captain Milo said as he got up ''Of course We accept Suzerainty again! Come to our Capital, Make us your Vassal Again''

''Of Course, Of Course, But tell me, We have already met?'' Captain Alexander Doukas asked, extremely confused

Captain Milo looked confused before he understood.

''Ah, Yes, It had been Centuries since you had last arrived, it makes sense you have forgotten, Should I explain to you?'' Captain Milo asked

Captain Alexander Doukas Motioned for 1 man to begin writing before he nodded.

''Of Course, It began about 2600 Years ago, when we were all uncivilized and city states, When the Ships from the East, where you came from, arrived in Rodenuis, Calling themselves the Romani, They had weapons no one had ever seen and without any Wyverns, Magic or anything, and they began to conquer the world'' Captain Milo asked

''Like these men?'' Captain Alexander Doukas asked

Captain Alexander Doukas took out his phone and showed Captain Milo a Roman Legionary from the Gallic Wars, Captain Milo smiled.

''Yes! Just like that, Some 56 000 of them managed to take Rodenuis in 2 years, Altarus in 3 and Philides in 100 years. Whatever challenges they faced, they won, and began to impose their will everywhere. They would have taken over the world if the Current Superpower, Mirishrial, Defeated them in the central world around 2400 years ago'' Captain Milo said

''What happened to them? They retreated back to Rodenuis?'' Captain Alexander Doukas asked

''Something like that, As everyone revolted but Rodenuis, The survivors went inside a Mountain of Marble, Becoming Statues until their Homeland comes back, founded by Romulus, Centuries later the legacy remains, Rodenuis still has the tongue and systems in place, Quila is the only one to have forgotten'' Captain Milo explained
