Here follows a record of the Rite:

D'annha s'Ta'lis ih Ji'anah'ri

(Marriage of Ta'lis to Ji'ana)

Music

:: Aboard her flagship, the R.R.W. Ta'lis e'lev, Ji'ana received a hail and ordered the channel open on the viewscreen. ::

:: The viewscreen displayed an image of Ta'lis, standing at the north end of the intact Tamh Ulhei (Ancient Bridge) over the Vastam River on New Romulus. ::
Ta'lis then spoke:  "Ji'ana, aei rhanne."
("Ji'ana, it is I.")

:: Ji'ana rose from her chair at the sight of Ta'lis on the viewscreen, and spoke. ::
"Ta'lis, mosfvaih'eri mh'rhanam u'mosfvaih'eri p'tned-pra'krsh, crawae'enh u'crawae'eri diamn u'p'tned-pra'krsh.  Mnean paeti hrrau anhelaefvevha ormiin'erievha."
("Ta'lis, separated from me and never separated, always and never feeling and felt.  We meet at the chosen place.")

::In response, Ta'lis spoke again. ::
"Ji'ana, mosfvaih'eri mh'rhanam u'mosfvaih'eri p'tned-pra'krsh, crawae'enh u'crawae'eri diamn u'p'tned-pra'krsh.  Rhanne ourhhe hwaovha."
("Ji'ana, separated from me and never separated, always and never feeling and felt.  I wait for thee.")


:: Ji'ana, having beamed down to the surface of New Romulus, approached the center of the ancient bridge from the south and rang the ceremonial gong once, waiting a few moments before ringing it again, after which her Hfihar members entered the area from the south, led by Galactica and Llaiir, stopping on the south side of the Priestess (Kara). ::


:: Ta'lis and her attendants approached from the north, Ta'lis pausing halfway to the chosen place and waiting with two of her attendants behind her, and one guard, Da'lor, while the others of her party continue and stop on the north side of the Priestess (Kara). ::


:: Karataia, standing in the middle of the bridge and facing the waterfalls, spoke. ::
"Fvah hrian hnafirhn'dhohh aekhho siumel temrhaen, Na Ikara'edh ja astev.  Elet na caevra Rihan, elet na hachae Rihan -- elet latas mnei.
("What you will see comes down from the time of the Beginning, before The Sundering.  This is the Romulan heart, this is the Romulan soul -- this is our way.")


:: Ji'ana dropped the gong mallet, took the Lirpa from her back, and glared around at the assembled, daring any to challenge the marriage, then rang the gong a third time, with the blunt end of the Lirpa. ::


:: Ta'lis and her two attendants came forward to the center of the bridge, Ta'lis standing to Ji'ana's left and taking her hand as they both faced west, away from the waterfalls and toward the Priestess. ::

:: Karataia addressed the assembled. ::

"Aefvadh, qiuu nunh.  ahr'bresa'eri hrrau tamhevha ulhei tivhevha mnean vr'd'annhavha s'Ta'lis i'ih'Aefau s'Ehhelih u's'Ji'ana ir'Vastam s'Charvon."
("Be welcome, all here.  We are gathered on this ancient bridge for the marriage of Ta'lis i'ih'Aefau t'Ehhelih and Ji'ana ir'Vastam t'Charvon.")

"Rhaae'rau.
("Let it begin.)

"Ta'lis, from the ih'Aefau, daughter of Hfihar s'Ehhelih, are you prepared for and do you consent to taking Ji'ana as your wife?"


:: Ta'lis responded. ::
"Ie.  Yes."


:: Karataia addressed Ji'ana then. ::
"Ji'ana, resident of the Vastam Region, daughter of Hfihar s'Charvon, are you prepared for and do you consent to taking Ta'lis as your wife?"


:: Ji'ana nodded. ::
"Ie.  Yes."


:: Karataia raised her hands to the couple in the ancient gesture. ::
"Then join your minds."


:: Ji'ana turned to face her love and raised her left hand in the same gesture. ::


:: Ta'lis faced her beloved and lifted her right hand, forming the same gesture and bringing her hand into contact with that of Ji'ana. ::


:: Ji'ana spoke slowly and deliberately. ::
"Gemaen rhanam i gemaen hwaoi.  Temaelhein rhanam i temaelhein hwaoi."
("My mind to thy mind.  Thy thoughts to my thoughts.")


:: Ta'lis responded in the same slow and deliberate manner. ::
"Caevra hwaoi i caevra rhanam.  Hachae rhanam i hachae hwaoi."
("Thine heart to mine heart.  My soul to thy soul.")


:: Karataia then spoke, in the same fashion. ::
"Gemaenir hraen, anna'eri u'aeiiht ..."
("Your minds, one and together ...")


:: Ta'lis spoke again. ::
"Crawae'enh, ssuy crawaekhe'enh.  Mosfvaih'eri ssuy mosfvaih'eri p'tned-pra'krsh."
("Feeling, yet not feeling.  Separated, yet never separated.")


:: Ji'ana responded in kind. ::
"Crawae'enh, ssuy crawaekhe'enh.  Mosfvaih'eri ssuy mosfvaih'eri p'tned-pra'krsh."
("Feeling, yet not feeling.  Separated, yet never separated.")


:: The couple then spoke in unison. ::
"ahr'hwi mnean."
("We are one.")


:: Karataia solemnly announced ... ::
"The marriage has succeeded.  Let all celebrate the marriage of Ta'lis ei'Ehhelih t'Charvon and Ji'ana ir'Vastam t'Charvon."


:: The married couple then beamed up to Ta'lis' flagship, the R.R.W. Ji'ana a'rhea, to consummate their union. ::


:: Karataia spoke once more. ::
"The blissful couple wish to thank you all for your attendance, and will join us shortly at the reception on the banks of the Atlai."

The Newlyweds:  Ta'lis ei'Ehhelih t'Charvon and Ji'ana ir'Vastam t'Charvon

Let there be rejoicing throughout the Republic!  Temer's hope can be fulfilled!  They who were once enemies are now united, in friendship, and in love!

Across the Star Road which the Humans name "the Milky Way galaxy," the allied forces battle an ancient foe who would exterminate or enslave us. I hear the chatter of Starfleet officers over the subspace frequencies, with indications that some of them do not take this threat seriously. A few have even argued that we should all stop fighting and attempt to negotiate with the enemy. Yet before we had our first encounter with the Ikonnsu, we accessed their database in the Solanae Dyson Sphere and learned of their plans for several polities in the Star Road. These Ikonnsu are not a peaceful people, tyrannical overlords of the galaxy some 200,000 years ago, forced to retreat from our galaxy by an alliance of those species which they had dominated for untold centuries, and now back with plans to reestablish their domination of the Star Road. Perhaps some in Starfleet do not feel the threat since the capitol planet of their Federation has not yet been subjected to direct attack. Perhaps some have forgotten what we learned in that database. I will provide some quotes from the database we infiltrated:

System: Sol
Dominant Species: Human
Servitor Presence: Level 4 surveillance in effect
Ideal site for harvesting. Servitor races have used disease epidemics and internal conflicts in ancient past to gather specimens for study.
Population is numerous but mostly peaceful. Poor candidates for servitor status: High creativity levels and self-preservation instinct make them inclined to fight rather than submit when faced by overwhelming foe. See "Borg" for more information.
Can be aggressive when threatened. Recommend that all activities in system be covert until invasion is launched.
Target for extermination. If Sol system is eliminated, models show that political entity known as "Federation" may collapse.

Notice: Target for extermination.

System: Qo'noS
Dominant Species: Klingon
Servitor Presence: Level 4 surveillance in effect
Aggressive, warlike species that dominates this area of space. Strong tendencies to fight rather than submit. Harvesting programs in past have been problematic -- only successful when used in concert with internal conflict.
Possible candidate for servitor race, if key members of government and entity known as "Great Houses" could be used to direct rest of population.
Military structure in most organizations makes population already accustomed to taking orders from superiors. Recommend study of "honor" in society for use as a tool for control.
If population can be absorbed into servitor species, it would be a great addition to our fighting strength. If they cannot, extermination must be swift. We cannot give the Klingons a chance to organize against us.

Notice that they would prefer to absorb the Klingons into their "servitor" species, but that plan seems to have been abandoned now in favor of their backup plan, which is swift extermination.

System: New Romulus
Dominant Species: Romulan
Servitor Presence: Level 8 surveillance in effect
Survivors of Romulan extermination have gathered on site of former Dewan homeworld. They have uncovered sites belonging to servitor races and are attempting to reactivate gateway. If gateway is successfully activated, they may threaten entire network.
Attempts to use Elachi to eliminate threat unsuccessful. Alliance with Tal Shiar problematic -- Romulans as a species show more self-determination and willpower than in previous observations. Leader known as Sela must be controlled or eliminated.
Several key members of Romulan Republic gateway research team have been taken for additional study without their knowledge. Brain scans of Researcher A'dranna have yielded vital information about project.
Agents have used that information to destabilize gateway. If activated, seismic instability will affect entire planet. Expected outcome is 70 percent reduction in population.
Remaining survivors must not be allowed to form organized groups -- recommend subsuming them into Elachi as soon as possible.

In case this be not clear, this database entry reveals that the Hobus supernova, far from an attempt by the Ikonnsu to bring themselves back to our galaxy, was an attempt to exterminate all Romulan and Reman life. That was prevented by the willing sacrifice of a Vulcan whose nobility cannot be denied, although he was unable to act in time to prevent the loss of the entire Eisn system and billions of Romulan lives (had the Remans not already been relocated to Crateris, billions of Reman lives would also have been lost), and so the Ikonnsu proceeded to send one of their "servitor" species, the fungoid life-forms known as "Elachi," to "eliminate" the survivors. This also failed, due to the will of our peoples to live and be free. Next the Ikonnsu sabotaged the gateway in the underground ruins of the Vastam region of our new homeworld, the capitol planet of the New Romulan Republic, ch'Mol'Rihan, in an effort to massacre 70 percent of the population, and survivors were to be "subsumed" into Elachi (the exact meaning of this is a matter of debate, and our teams have had insufficient time to examine the remains of those who have been found inside Elachi incubation tubes, but some have theorized that the purpose of these tubes was to transform the occupants into Elachi, while others, noting that dead humanoid and vulcanoid bodies fell out of the tubes when they were opened after the incubation process had gone on too long, have suggested that the purpose of the incubation tubes was to feed humanoid and vulcanoid species to Elachi young). This plan has been thwarted by personnel from the various branches of the Romulan Republic Forces.

This is so stunning as to bear repeating in blunt language: the Ikonnsu have used three different plans in an effort to "exterminate" all Romulan and Reman life!

Obviously, these Ikonnsu are not beings to be negotiated with. The evidence strongly supports the conclusion that the entire population of the Ikonnsu consists of less than 15 individuals, and that they are all very much involved in these plans to reconquer the Star Road and commit genocide on a massive scale in their efforts to do so.

Fleet Admiral tr'Kererek, head of the New Romulan Star Navy, believed at one point that we could not win this war, but he was one of the few insisting that we should fight till our last breath. The Tal'Diann of the New Romulan Republic, under my leadership, has a different perspective: we believe we can win, although the cost may be high, but we agree with tr'Kererek that we should fight till our last breath. Some Terrhasu once had a belief which was summarized in two slogans: "Give me liberty or give me death" and "Live free or die." These slogans are very much the attitude of the Romulan and Reman people since before the Sundering, with a brief perversion of our ideals in the final decades of the dying Star Empire, but we of the Republic have restored the love of freedom as our highest ideal. Indeed, the motto of the Tal'Diann has been, since my leadership, "ahr'Lleiset mnhei'sahe mnei." Verily, "Our chief governing passion is Freedom." If we die, we do so still free; we will not submit to the tyranny of the Ikonnsu, but will fight them to our last breath, with which we shall breathe that most sacred of words: Lleiset.

But we believe we can win this war. Recent R&D work with [REDACTED] has shown great promise. Our will to survive and remain free cannot be broken. The Ikonnsu will fall before the combined might of all the branches of the Romulan Republic Forces (including both the Star Navy and the Tal'Diann), even if our allies in Starfleet and the Klingon Defense Force should surrender. We will not surrender. We will fight on. We will be free.

Starbase G-14 of the Tal'Diann

Jolan'tru, rhadai galaen s'Tal'Diann u'pinherein.
(Hello, people of the fleet of the Tal'Diann and guests.)

Inspired by the work of one of the fleets within the Federation's Starfleet (the 26th Fleet), the Tal'Diann has opened one of our starbases, Tal'Diann Starbase G-14, to personnel from other KDF-allied fleets of the New Romulan Republic, as well as personnel from the fleets of our allies in the KDF, for purposes of R&R, social interaction, resupplying vessels, medical treatment, and other activities which can be undertaken on the starbase.

Iurrhi'u hdraelevha s'Tal'Diann.
Come to the starbase of the Tal'Diann.

*~-._ Our public docking frequency is: _.-~*

SBG14

Rules, Guidelines, and Customs:

All persons who come to Tal'Diann Starbase G-14 are within their rights to bear weapons openly (Romulan culture has traditionally engaged in the bearing of personal weapons even into situations which some other societies might regard as inappropriate for the bearing of weapons, such as diplomatic summits and the like).

(( OOC:  Certain behaviors will not be tolerated on our starbase or in any other holding of our fleet.  For the most part, the behaviors in question can be avoided by judicious use of common sense, courtesy, and discernment.  A few examples follow:

•  Public ERP ("Erotic Role Play") is not welcome aboard our starbase (this does not include romance or public displays of affection, which are completely acceptable, but is intended rather to refer to only the more explicit sorts of intimacy).  We do not wish to rain on your parade nor promote puritanical or Victorian attitudes pertaining to wholly natural and healthy desires and behavior, so if you simply cannot resist the charms of another person or persons on the starbase, please first make sure that all involved are of legal age (for your own safety), and then take such activity to the ship of one of the persons involved, out of courtesy to others who may not wish to bear witness to it.  Frankly, what you do privately, as long as it involves consenting adults only, is nobody's business but those involved, and we do not care to know what sorts of things you get up to in your private quarters.  Hdrael G-14 s'Tal'Diann is neither a brothel nor an hourly-rate motel.
•  Hate Speech and other demonstrations of bigotry are subject to a zero-tolerance policy, and no warning will be issued before ejection from the starbase and banning from the channel.  Please do not test this;  you WILL be ejected and banned, and reported to PWE Staff.
•  While "colorful language" (what some call "profanity") is not prohibited, please avoid excessive use of such.
•  Harassment of any kind is prohibited.  Harassment is defined as specifically targeting another player, or group of players, to harm or inconvenience them. As harassment can take many forms, it will be the mandate of the personnel of the High Command of the Tal'Diann to make a determination as to whether or not a 'reasonable person' would feel harassed and act accordingly. 
•  Use of disco balls and/or unmelting snowballs against players engaged in the Nerve Tonic Dance will be regarded as a form of harassment, and dealt with accordingly.

In most cases, a warning will be given before any other action is taken against anyone (although there are exceptions such as the use of hate speech, for which we have a zero-tolerance policy, as noted above).  We will make every effort to maintain a safe haven for RPers, and I have every confidence in the personnel of our Fleet High Command to be successful at this endeavor.  Should any visitor to our starbase feel that they have been subjected to unwanted behavior, please contact any member of our fleet High Command (see below for the High Command Roster) via PM or in-game mail. ))

One (and only one) chair near the hearth in the starbase bar is reserved for the galae'Enriov, and if you sit there, you will be asked to move, whether the galae'Enriov be present on the starbase at the time or not.  Fleet personnel can inform visitors of which chair this is, if this seating chart be not clear enough.  In addition, certain officers of Tal'Diann High Command are entitled to certain other chairs near the hearth when they are present on the starbase (as indicated in the same seating chart).  They are within their rights to occupy those chairs at will, because they have earned such an honor.  Please respect our customs in this matter, and surrender your chair should one of these officers request that you do so.

***~_ 

We also stipulate the following terms and restrictions:

•  Eibhulir (Tribbles), although permitted on Starbase G-14, are to be kept away from any and all food and/or drink (failure to comply with this stipulation will be regarded as eco-terrorism, and guilty parties will be thrown in the starbase brig awaiting Courts-Martial under a Tribunal of Tal'Diann High Command personnel), and must be kept well away from our Klling'hann personnel and guests.
•  Abuse of our public docking frequency ((spamming etc.)) will result in being banned from the channel.
•  Use of the Rihan language on the starbase, while not required, is welcome and encouraged.
•  As a fleet of the New Romulan Republic, our personnel will take a dim view of Romulan Star Empire loyalists and sympathizers (if their allegiance be known prior to, or be made known during, docking requests, they will not be invited to the starbase;  if their allegiance should become known after gaining access to the starbase, they will be asked to leave, and refusal to comply will result in forcible ejection from the starbase).
•  Tal'Shiar personnel may be shot on sight  (will not be invited to the starbase if their affiliation with the Tal'Shiar be made known prior to, or during, docking requests, they will not be invited to the starbase, and if their affiliation with the Tal'Shiar should become known after docking, the probability of them being executed without trial ((unceremoniously ejected from the starbase)) by any Officer, member of Command, or member of High Command of the Tal'Diann is near 100%);  you have been warned.

Lakhraem Euhren u'Ouahhai (Defense of Planet and of System)

mh'Hnahfvierai Fvillhum s'Gessatra

na Rhihv:  Lakhraem Euhren u'Ouahhai
the Concern:  Defense of Planet and of System

My dear Proconsul,

Recent events have been fast and furious.  I need not brief you again on the what of those events.  What should be obvious, however, is that the orbital defenses of both Terrha and Krhonosh were woefully inadequate.  Both Earth Spacedock and the Qo'noS Orbital Shipyard were destroyed, in spite of patrols, active warships, and the armaments in the rubble of Praxis, to say nothing of the defenses of the shipyard itself, and all the various defenses in the Sol system.

By contrast, we have almost nothing in orbit around ch'Mol'Rihan.  A handful of small satellites, a transwarp gate, and whatever vessels happen to be in orbit at the time, some of which are not vessels of our Republic.  While that leaves little to be destroyed by a similar attack on our new homeworld, it does also leave no distraction for a foe like the Undine;  they would aim their planetkiller not at some orbital construct, but at our home itself.

We must rectify this situation at once!

Patrols of the system must immediately become regular and constant.  Orbital defenses must be constructed, maintained, armed, and staffed, ready at all times.  A station in orbit, or better yet, the Flotilla of the Republic itself, needs to be there to respond to any threat of such a nature.  Additional and upgraded weapons must be authorized for all personnel.

I will trust you to take this matter to the Deihuit, with the expediency and urgency necessary for a timely allocation of funds and the establishment of any programs necessary.

Bhaonev,

(Be-welcome to web-embassy of-Tal'Diann of-New-Romulans.)
[ Welcome to the website of the Tal'Diann of New Romulus. ]

Jolan'tru.
(Hello.)

The Tal'Diann is Romulan Military Intelligence (this is our primary focus, but we are also the Internal Affairs Agency of the Romulan Republic Forces, thus including Military Police and Military Criminal Investigative Services;  Tal'Diann also includes a Sciences Department, divided into the Division of Military Research and Development, the Division of Medical Research, and the Temporal Sciences Division).  The Tal'Diann is the well-known foe of the Tal'Shiar (Imperial Secret Police).  The Tal'Diann was established before the rise of the Shiar ih'Saeihr Rihan (Romulan Star Empire), and even before time of the Aeiiht'kaehht Rihan (Romulan Confederation), in the days of the Aeiiht'kaehht ih'Mhashe Rihan (Romulan Tribal Confederation).

We in the Tal'Diann oppose the efforts of those who, clinging to the shattered remnants of the Shiar ih'Saeihr Rihan, would restore that regime's corrupt and tyrannical government over all Rihanh.  The government of the Shiar ih'Saeihr Rihan became corrupt, decadent, and incompetent long before the rebellion of Shinzon.  The time for progress arrived long ago, and we as a people have only recently embraced it (although some have resisted change, infected by a blinkered nostalgia for imperial times, whereas others among us had worked for progress even before recent events).

What finally woke up many of those who had been too timid to stand up and cast off the yoke of our oppressors, was also what brought many of those in denial to face reality, namely, attacks authorized by the imperial government upon peaceful colonies of our people, people who were doing nothing but minding their own business, many of whom had never before dared to even so much as consider disloyalty.  However, any government which would not only condone, but actually orchestrate, such unprovoked aggression against its own people is unworthy of loyalty.

Following these attacks, we learned of even more crimes against Rihanno (Romulanity) committed in the name of the previous regime, the most shocking of which was the fact that the Tal'Shiar were even responsible for the Hobus Supernova which destroyed ch'Rihan u' ch'Havran (Romulus and Remus).  Whereas the Tal'Diann merely opposed the Tal'Shiar under the previous regime, we of the Tal'Diann, who helped in the foundation of the New Romulan Republic specifically because of the excesses of the Tal'Shiar and the political intrigue and ambition which allowed chaos sufficient for the Tal'Shiar to usurp ever more authority, we, the Tal'Diann, are now explicitly and openly at war with the fragmented and dispersed cells of the Tal'Shiar.

Our loyalties are with the Kreh'dhhokh Mol'Rihan (New Romulan Republic), and our Fvillhu (Praetor), known variously as Ji'ana ir'Vastam t'Charvon, Jessatra ir'Virinat t'Prell, and sundry other aliases, the galae'Enriov (Fleet Admiral) answers only to Ehkifv Temjahaere D'Tan (Proconsul D'Tan).

Now, Tal'Diann has established a Klingon-allied fleet.  Tal'Diann is a KDF-allied fleet for Romulans, Remans, Orions, Klingons, Aliens, Gorn, Nausicaans, Letheans, ... and Vulcan Defectors.

Tal-Diann has also established a Federation-allied fleet.  Tal-Diann is a Fed-allied fleet for Romulans, Remans, Vulcans, Andorians, and the wide spectrum of those who, no matter their blood nor hue, blaze with the green fire of Freedom.

Do you yearn for intrigue?  Did you major in Espionage at the Academy?  Would you like to join the most elite Intelligence service in the galaxy?  Apply to Tal'Diann to help establish the Legacy of ch'Mol'Rihan.

The Praetor and Admiral of the Fleet is:
 Ji'ana ir'Vastam t'Charvon (KDF-allied Tal'Diann)
 Ji'ana t'Charvon (Fed-allied Tal-Diann)
