CONQUEST #5: VALAHAED

My fifth planet to conquer was by far the hardest. Both Norman and the representatives of other races told me that the Valahs are the epitome of warrior spirit. Not only are they the most skilled and fierce fighters in that galaxy, as evidenced by the fact that not even Yarhakohn dared to try and conquer them, but they were also the best weapon smiths, manufacturing the best and deadliest weapons to ever graze or wound a living being. In short, these guys were absolutely fierce, and if I were to be taken seriously, I had to claim them for myself.

Their entire planet had a sad sepia tone to it. There were plants, animals and oceans on it, but none of them had any color. In fact, I would wager that the whole place had three shades of brown to it, at best. The Valahs themselves looked unremarkable. They had lanky, grayish bodies with elongated skulls, four arms, a serpentine tail portion instead of legs, no lips (they spoke telepathically), protruding dark eyes that clashed the brown environment, lapsed chest, and an unremarkable skin. However, they nearly always wore armor, and this armor… well, it also looked unremarkable. It barely covered them. In fact, if I had a shotgun and just randomly shot it at one (which, sadly, I didn’t try while I was there), chances would be high I would hit one of his body parts with roughly 70% of the shot. They didn’t even cover their heads.

But they barely needed armor to speak of. They were so skilled at weapon-wielding that they could literally shoot away any upcoming shot. Not because of speed, but because they knew how weapon usage went – they would calculate every shot’s velocity, the wind, the environmental obstacles, the distances, the angle of the weapon held, the angle of the body positioned before them or behind them – literally everything, and all of it within a millisecond.

It took me all of five hours to conquer the planet, and it wasn’t easy. The first hour was the most difficult. The very moment we landed on an uninhabited area and began setting up camp, we were overwhelmed by shots. Roughly half of my manpower died, including Penna, whom I later revived anew, and whose name still graces this field. “Penna’s Final Fall,” I called it, and it was a monument to our conquest. But at that time, it was a battlefield. Surviving Girodians used their portable portals to transport massive ramparts between the enemy and us, effectively boxing us in. They kept using them to dig up huge trenches beneath us, and we all followed, shooting back with the weapons I kept creating and giving to an army I was also manufacturing by the thousands. It turned out that they were hopelessly outgunned by the Valahs. Their general, a seasoned one called Faran Ani, knew precisely what he was doing, and we were about to learn the full extent of this.

Weapons kept banging at the ramparts, but oddly enough nowhere near their top, or near our heads.
