Grand Talos

*"Grand Talos is sheer proof that we are the masters of this existence, nothing comes close to its perfection, its beauty, its purity. There is nothing more a Talon cherishes then their home planet. I find immense comfort in knowing that one day i will be buried next to her."''***~Unknown Talon**

## Overview:

The most prized possession of the entirety of Talon existence, Grand Talos is the proud home of the master Talon race, a planet that is worshiped by not only the non-pure chosen race that dies for it but by the Talon who live on it. To the degenerate enemies of the Talon, Grand Talos is a myth, in fact it is deemed fake propaganda as a planet of that size and beauty is impossible. Apart from that, nothing is known of Grand Talos; it is a heavily guarded secret to those who aren't of the Talon race, the most well guarded secret in the Talon Empire. Uber-enormous in size it is astounding how a planet that large can sustain life so perfectly, containing all types of diverse biomes such as; ocean, deserts, jungles, forests, ice sectors and so much more. The planet is nothing short of perfection, over the tens of billion years the Talon have lived on it, the planet has been well sustained with a balanced method of infrastructure and native conservation. The planet of Grand Talos is the most well guarded and hidden planet in the universe, for without it the Talon would not exist.

## Moons:

Grand Talos holds 63 moons, all varying in size and mass. Most moons have been used or dedicated for certain uses; such as Kharon I, the moon dedicated to the burial of all fallen Talons. However as a whole the moons of Grand Talos hold an enormous role in maintaining the sustainability of life on it. Due to the Uber-enormous size of the planet, Grand Talos hold enormous amounts of gravity which would make it hard to live on. The moons suppressed the effect of the planet's gravity by using their own gravities to pull on the Grand Talos, weakening the initial gravitational force on the planet's surface. The moons of Grand Talos are just as prized as the planet itself, and all have their own diverse range of environments allowing some to be inhabitable as well. Used for many things such as; training, burials, forges, constructions and manufacturing and so much more.

## Environment and terrain:

The environment of Grand Talos is very much similar to that of Chosen Earth. The planet holds an enormous array of biomes, allowing the planet to have all types of environments and landscapes. All is perfectly balanced therefore there is no primary dominating biome. Much like chosen Earth the ocean makes up a large portion of the planet's surface, however due it is almost equal to that of the landscape above sea level. Due to the sheer size of the planet itself the ocean is still more than enough to sustain all life on Grand Talos. The weather on Grand Talos is very much dependent on the sector and biome. Some areas have more rainfall than others and some experience hotter and colder days, all round the weather conditions are very diverse across the planet. Extreme weather events can be common however pose no initial threat to Talon civilisation who closely monitor them.

## Date and Time:

The date and time on Grand Talos is miraculously almost the same as Chosen Earth, the planet spins at around 15,000 kmph meaning the calendars are almost mirroring Chosen Earth’s. A huge deciding factor in why Lord General HAV’OC chose Earth, making it extremely easy to adapt Human calendars to Talon’s.

## Solar system:

Grand Talos is the only planet in its Solar system. Making it similar to a spoilt only child. The planet is in perfect distance from the sun, so that it doesn't heat up or cool down too quickly, as well as catering the size of the planet so all of the exposed surfaces are appropriately heated by the sun.

## Flora and Fauna:

Grand Talos is full of life, apart from the Talon themselves there are many different forms of life that make up the huge ecosystem of Grand Talos. All life on Grand Talos is 100% native and has never been found on any other planet, making it a vital mission of the Talon to ensure that the flora and fauna does not spread outside the boundaries of Grand Talos. Many procedures are in place to ensure that Talons are decontaminated when entering the planet to make sure nothing is introduced that may change the planet's ecosystem, as well as to make sure nothing from Grand Talos follows them out into foreign lands. This was a huge problem back during the period of the Forgotten purity, where decontamination was loosely enforced meaning that there were chances of Talon flora being lost into the abyss of space.

## Defenses:

It is safe to say that Grand Talos is the most well defended asset in the entirety of Talon existence. Not only is it guarded by the famous 5th Solar Fleet, who patrols light-years ahead of the planet destroying all that accidentally enters its system, but there are numerous systems in place to ensure that invading Grand Talos is an impossible task. The planet itself is protected by a planetary reactive shield system, upon activation this shield will engulf the planet, protecting it from all outside elements. Alongside that, all of the 63 moons of Talos are equipped with devastating precision platform guns that will engage and destroy all foreign attacks at long range. Even if the invaders were to somehow breach the defenses, only death awaits them as the ancient guardians of purity will not fail in defending their land with their lives. Amongst that, there are many protocols in place to ensure Grand Talos never falls. Upon news that hostiles have entered the system of Grand Talos all nearby Solar armies will immediately return home in seconds, to the point where Every single solar army will return home if needed to defend their prized homeland. Grand Talos will never fall.

## Infrastructure:

Talon infrastructure is unmatched, the cities are large and gorgeous without a single piece of litter to be seen. Grand Talos prides itself on its balanced proportions of urban city structures and natural conservations. Sectors are allocated for the populas to live and work while others are used to ensure that the ecosystem of the planet thrives. There is no pollution nor a population problem, with so much room to play with cities are made without needing buildings to touch the sky or cramping Talons into small spaces. Most of the population is out in foreign spaces fighting war in the Empire’s Solar armies and fleets therefore infrastructure is relaxed and focuses more on impact-less efficiency rather than fitting as much talon per square meter as possible. The production of buildings and structures is done under a process that involves pre-building the structure in a controlled space away from cities, once the structure is built it is then teleported onto the space as a readily functioning structure. This process allows major construction to be underway without affecting and endangering the citizens who may be living near that space. This is the primary means of construction.

## Government:

Without going too much into politics, Grand Talos is ruled completely by the Talon Lord General, however the planet is primarily governed by the Supreme Government of Grand Talos. Serving as the representation of the Lord General on Grand Talos, the Supreme Governor is in charge of overseeing all government operations on the planet. He maintains the planet ensuring that everything runs smoothly, commanding the Guardians of Purity he ensures that all laws are followed and the planet is kept up to standard. It is the Guardians of Purity who maintain order and law on Grand Talos, in the rare occurrences that laws are broken, they act swiftly in stamping out disobedience. The supreme Governor also ensures that all the Earls and Counts are maintaining their private lands as well as following the laws that follow owning private lands.
