    Republic Orbital Complex, 2174 A.D.
    90,000,000,000 miles from Barnard's Star
    Commodore Therax sat stone still as he re-read the report that was handed to him by the Republic Intelligence officer, still trying to understand the words he was reading while his mind rejected them. The insectoids had launched a devastating assault on the core system of V’rn, and he focused once again on the estimated death toll.
    Over five hundred billion dead, the V’rn home world was now a rapidly spinning ball of magma, and every orbital and space structure in the solar system was destroyed. In one fell swoop, the Insectoids wiped out almost a third of the industrial capacity of the Commonwealth and over 20% of its population. The V’rni were now a refugee species, adding a further burden to the already deteriorating state of the Commonwealth government as it tried to tamp down on internal dissent and threats of rebellion from the more fractious members.
    The intelligence officer waited a little longer, and then he sat down across from Therax and waited for him to come to terms with the report. After a few moments, Therax looked at him.
    “Colonel, I thank you for allowing me access to your intelligence reports and for taking on the burden of informing me. This is a devastating blow to the Commonwealth; the V’rn were one of the founding members and the very embodiment of the spirit of the organization. They were also the first to vote yes to grant your species entry, and now the very heart of the Commonwealth is gone. I do not see how they can recover from this.”
    Colonel Mgabi sighed softly and pushed another data pad across the table. “Commodore, this is another report detailing the efforts of your government to maintain control of their remaining members. The news organizations have been muzzled, and the Commonwealth is currently under an undeclared state of martial law. And please call me Bob; I have asked you repeatedly to do so when we are alone.”

    HFY is a story/series that takes a “human element” in either humanity or an “other” (race/species or object) that exists in a “setting” (future or other world/universe) with varying levels of culture, technology, society and history that help show in some shape or form the potential good or bad for humanity’s race/culture. In These stories Humans are often referred to as Human, Humanity, Deathworlder, Hellwolder in reference to the human planet of origin , Earth. This planet is seen by most of the universe as a place where only death and chaos can survive.
    Taken from the FAQ of the r/HFY subreddit.
    Humans Are Space Orcs (HASO) or Humans Are (Fantasy Race) Are used as a guide when writing.
    In these Stories we normally View humans like the other races view orcs in a Fantasy Novel. We (Humans) share the same characteristics and personalities as orcs. Humans are normally treated as the outsiders and barbarians. Humans tend to be underestimated as well in these stories. Unlike Humanity EFF Yea , these don't always put a positive spin on humans\humanity sometimes looking at the darker side of human and humanity from the perspective of aliens.

    Love this story. World building is rock solid, and the story as a whole is clearly well thought out. Pacing is great too. I really hope the author is able to maintain this for the duration of the story.

    I always laugh when i see an article saying that Sc-iFi is running out of ideas. This whole series so far is fresh and amazing.

    Oo. Maybe seeing the commonwealth with a civil war in its hands will distract the hive queen enough to fail to realize she may have one in hers too.

    Starting to go downhill. A shame as it started so well. Probably should have finished the story at part 7.

      @MrHoneHeke I am the Author and I appreciate your honest comment. If you wouldn't mind, can you please let me know specifically what is causing you to lose interest or what it is that makes you feel this way? I am genuinely curious and would appreciate the feedback. I cannot be an effective writer without knowing what the issues are that are causing this to happen. Thank you!
