Battle of Orion, 3,161 AD

The Battle of Orion, was a prolonged battle which was part of the 1st Holy Star Crusade. The battle was fought between an invading Holy Star Crusade Armada from the Holy Terran Star Dominion and defending fleets of the Orion Ascendency, this battle started on February 1st of 3,161 AD, and lasted over three weeks.

This battle is significant in human history because it was the first time that a force from Earth attacked the Orion Ascendency within their proclaimed Empire. No other humans from Earth had ever attempted to attack the Orion Ascendency. Fearing retaliation from the numerous gods of Orion and their armies, which were thought to be invincible. The God Empress and God Emperor of humanity, didn't have any such fears. After consolidating their power after their victory in the Earth Civil War, they built up an Armada that was larger and more powerful than anything Earth had ever seen or even imagined before their reign.

The newly built holy Armada consisted of the first ever Earth Titan's to be constructed. Huge behemoth ships that were larger than anything Earth had ever built before the holy Duality rule. The Orion Ascendency fleets were much larger than the Holy Terran Star Dominion armada but were much more spread out and covered a much wider area, especially their primary worlds of Orion Prime, Zues Prime, Kronos Prime, Odin Prime, Osiris Prime.

The battle began with the attack on Falkoria Eldorasa, an outlaying world on the edge of Orion Ascendency space. The Holy Terran Star Dominion completely conquered the planet in a few hours. The Orion Ascendency was taken off guard. The world's planetary defenses and patrol fleet were ripped to pieces in a matter of minutes. The Holy Terran Star Dominion, occupied the world and began converting its inhabitants, many converted to the Dominion Cult and believed in the God Emperor and God Empress of humanity as the true Gods of the universe. Rejecting the Gods of Orion. This was the beginning of the Battle of Orion, 3,161 AD.

It shocked the Gods of Orion how easily the Holy Terran Star Dominion was able to conquer one of their worlds and so they organized a counter-offensive. Rallying a dozen fleets the primary Gods of Orion sent a few lesser gods to attack the Duality and their armada at Falkoria Eldorasa. The Gods of Orion were not expecting the firepower that the Earth armada possessed. Their dozen fleets were completely decimated, millions lost their lives in the chaotic engagement and the three moons around Falkoria Eldorasa were completely blown to pieces, pushing Falkoria Eldorasa out of its orbit.

Even though Falkoria Eldorasa was pushed out of its orbit, the planet was still protected by a planetary shield that the Dominion had installed after conquering the planet. The Dominion set up military bases on the rouge planet and used it as a base of operations for future assaults into the Orion Ascendency. Reinforcing the world into a floating citadel.

After their defeat the Gods of Orion organized a major offensive to crush the invading force, this time not underestimating the Earth invasion armada. They formed an armada of their own. Over a two-week period, they formed the largest armada ever assembled up to that point in the Orion Ascendency's existence, consisting of millions of ships of all types and classes. All the Gods of Orion were a part of the armada, even the primary gods of Orion joined the massive armada ready to bring destruction to the God Emperor and God Empress and retain their image of invincibility.

The gods of Orion had received reports that the Earth armada had regrouped within the Orion nebula.

With their armada fully assembled and the gods united, the gods of Orion set their sights on the Orion Nebula, where the Earth armada had regrouped. They understood the importance of this battle and were determined not to underestimate their adversaries again. The gods of Orion were fueled by their desire to reclaim their image of invincibility and crush the invading force once and for all.

As the gods of Orion approached the Orion Nebula, they carefully devised their strategy, taking into account the strengths and weaknesses of their own armada and the Earth armada. They knew that the Earth forces had proven their resilience and adaptability in the previous encounters, so they prepared for a formidable opposition.

The gods of Orion utilized their vast armada to their advantage, deploying various types and classes of ships strategically. They coordinated their movements, ensuring a synchronized attack from all sides. Their millions of ships formed a formidable wall of power, ready to overwhelm the Earth armada.

The battle that ensued was intense and fierce. The gods of Orion unleashed devastating weaponry, advanced technologies, and unleashed their divine powers upon the Earth armada. They targeted key strategic points and focused their efforts on crippling the enemy's command structure.

The Earth armada fought back with equal determination, utilizing their own advanced technologies and tactics. They had learned from their previous encounters and devised new strategies to counter the gods of Orion's offensive.

The clash between the two armadas raged on for days, resulting in massive casualties on both sides. The gods of Orion, fueled by their desire to reclaim their invincibility, fought with unmatched fury. However, the Earth armada proved to be a formidable adversary, utilizing their resourcefulness and tenacity to push back against the overwhelming force.

The battle reached a critical point, with both armadas sustaining heavy damage. It became apparent that neither side would achieve an easy victory. Realizing the immense cost of continuing the conflict, the gods of Orion made a decision to engage in negotiations with the Earth armada, seeking a resolution that would bring an end to the devastating war.

While the gods of Orion had initially sought to crush the Earth invasion armada, they recognized the strength and determination of their adversaries. The gods of Orion were not solely driven by a thirst for destruction but also sought a peaceful resolution that would restore balance and harmony.

With negotiations underway, both sides began exploring avenues for a diplomatic solution. The gods of Orion, humbled by the resilience of the Earth armada, recognized the potential for coexistence and the importance of finding a common ground.

The outcome of these negotiations would determine the fate of both the gods of Orion and the Earth armada. The once-mighty gods had learned the importance of respect, unity, and the perils of underestimating their opponents. The stage was set for a pivotal moment that would shape the future of their conflict and the entire galaxy.
