History of the Kraken Revolution

Kraken, the first colony of Earth - an Earth-twin that never suffered the dinosaur extinction meteor strike and subsequent entry into radical cycles of climate. A world that should have been paradise for those first colonists is on the brink of war...with its own motherland. 

2180 CE: War lingers on. Kraken citizens are split in their loyalty. Hostile acts against the colony by a desperate motherland are rising. Jankin Decatur takes a desperate peace mission to Earth to appeal to the NAU Senate on what may be their final hope for survival.

Admiral Bastian’s words echoed across the huge construction quay: “In this facility, you see the latest warship design by Doctor Humphrey. He’s a bit of a military historian and calls that miracle of science sitting there a frigate. I believe it is much more.”

Though it retained the overall energy-conserving shape of a slightly flattened sphere, there was nothing soft or mundane in this warbird’s appearance. Like a great frigate bird, its surface was of long sharp ridges to reduce gravitic wave distortion and therefore detection. Humphrey’s brilliance developed a gravitic wavelength algorithm that precisely calculated the ship’s long-to-short axis diameter ratio, finely adjusting it to optimize linkage to the great gravity waves of deep space. A novel concept, allowing the warbird to achieve greater velocities than any other known starship. Even deactivated, the ship was difficult to focus upon because of its electromagnetic adsorbing surface.
