Sera System War

The Sera System war was the Dragonian name for the invasion of their system by Androgian forces led by a freshly awoken Atheai Kilas in late 1998 that ended in early 1999.
==Overview==
The Dragonians, along with the Serinian Humans, had their system invaded by the Ancient Dragons in late 1998. This Androgian force was led by Atheai Kilas and consisted of Atheai's flagship and 56 other assorted Androgian ships which had survived the extinction of the Androgian race. The invasion was swift and decisive, with the well-equipped and battle-hardened Androgian forces easily destroying the Dragonian and Serinian forces and quickly forcing survivors to form small scale resistance cells. The Androgian occupation of the Sera System lasted for several months while the Androgian forces systematically "harvested" every Dragonian and human left in the system, after which the war had technically ended as there was nobody left in the system to contest the Androgian claim to it.
During the months of the occupation in late 1998 and early 1999, the population of the system was "harvested" and subsequently devoured by the Androgian force with the Dragonian population being devoured solely by females in a 99/1 ratio with 1% of all Dragonians going to Atheai herself, and the other 99% going to the females of her invasion force, while the human population was split evenly between males and females.
The casualty count of the war was shocking, with nearly all 35 million Dragonians and 60 million humans either being killed outright or "harvested" and later devoured by an Androgian during the war and it's aftermath of continued Androgian occupation. Fewer than 10,000 humans and 5000 Dragonians managed to survive, with these few survivors having managed to escape in the few Dragonian ships that had survived the guns of the Androgian fleet by escaping the Sera System by using a dangerous method of engaging their hyperdrives from low orbit.
==Reasons==
The Sera System War started because the system had a small, easily conquerable population of DragonKin and Humans, the "perfect" meal to satisfy the stasis induced hunger from the imperfect Androgian stasis technology.
==Major Conflicts==
A list of major conflicts and battles from the war in chronological order.
====Declaration Of War: Location - Sera System, Year - 1998, Androgian Victory ====
The initial attack was both sudden and brutal, with the Androgian forces arriving in the system and easily decimating the small Dragonian defensive fleet and started to land Androgian troops on both Serinia and Geria within the first hour of shots being fired. The rounding up and devouring of Sera System natives started the same day the first shot was fired, with the greatly outgunned Dragonian forces on a retreat to defensive positions and the general population in panic.
The speed of the ground invasion was partly due to both Geria and Serinia lacking the planetary shielding systems and defensive cannons common to most space faring cultures, and partly due to the Androgian forces having such a size advantage that one soldier with a personal shield was easily capable of handling a large number of all but the most heavily armed Dragonian or human soldiers allowing for the Androgians to cover a large amount of territory with few soldiers.
====Retaliation: Location - Serinia, Year - 1998, Androgian Victory====
Two weeks into the war, all contact with Geria from Serinia had been lost, with Geria being the primary Androgian focus due to it's almost exclusively Dragonian population and more established military and command infrastructure. The effective loss of Geria prompted all remaining Dragonian forces on Serinia to mount a full-scale counter-offensive against the Androgian invasion force on Serinia, using whatever firepower they had, mostly Dragonian civilians armed with military equipment.
The initial strikes were successful, downing the small Androgian force tasked with "harvesting" Serinia which had mostly been focused on the Serinian capital and mostly ignored the Dragonians outside the city, even though the Dragonian forces took heavy casualties among their conscripts. However, a few days into the campaign, Atheai Kilas diverted more of her forces away from the defeated Geria towards Serinia.
As soon as the Androgian reinforcements started to arrive just a week into the counter-attack, the remaining Dragonian forces retreated to heavily defensive positions once again, this time to prepare for evacuation using starships the Androgians hadn't noticed and/or considered a threat.
====Final Battle: Location - Sera System, Year - 1998, Androgian Victory====
A little over two months into the war, and with the Androgian force's main focus having shifted away from subduing the Dragonian and human resistance and more heavily into "harvesting" the population, Senior Emissary Jerakia Kileao ordered the remaining Dragonian and human forces on Serinia, as well as any civilians they could find, to evacuate. The timing of the order to evacuate was questionable, as several of the evacuation ships hadn't been covertly filled with supplies yet and many suspected the reason for the sudden evacuation order was because the Androgians had started to get too close to the bunker Jerakia was hiding in.
Several small battles occurred as Androgian forces would occasionally engage evacuation groups who were moving from their assorted hiding spots to the concealed hangars containing the Dragonian starships. In total 23 of the 37 concealed starships managed to launch, with those that failed to launch often failing due to losing the few crew who knew how to operate them along the journey. Only 12 ships made it away from Serinia by using a risky manoeuvre of using their hyperdrives while still in atmosphere, with the other 11 launched ships being shot down by Androgian ships.
With the bulk of the Dragonian and human resistance gone, Serinia's fall was guaranteed alongside Geria's and the Androgians continued to "harvest" the population of both planets for many months. During these months of occupation and "harvesting", the Androgians also began work on converting Geria's infrastructure into something more suited for an Androgian, partly to start a new colony to start rebuilding their civilisation, and partly to provide a shipyard to repair the battered fleet.
