"This is ThirteenthCreated, your favorite news citizen, sending from the launch center for the Anarchistic Voyage, the first FFCC Potentiality class colonial vessel.
Citizen members of the alliance began arriving here as early as 36 hours ago. Many came earlier than they were called, just to see all their fellow members, discuss anarchist politics, and ponder the record setting size of this spacecraft.
At this point in time, everyone is onboard, and the entryways are being closed and latched, one by one, in preparation for takeoff. The ship should be in orbit around Anarchista by the fifth tenth of 2400.
The inner core of the ship contains all of the living and industrial supplies that will be needed for initial development.
Outside of the core are countless personal quarters, fewer common areas, and the bridge and life support systems.
The Chief Justice is now connected, and will give a brief summary of the reasons his allowed this project to go forward."
"Regardless of my decision, the Anarchist Alliance was already whole owner of the planet and close orbit of Anarchista. Thus the only special actions neccesary for approval, were the renunciation of military and civil defense, and civil administration. The special requests needed were relieving rather than encumbering our Foundational burden, and therefore I granted renunciation of civil and military services to the inhabitants of the planet Anarchista."
"Chief Justice, if you will, remain connected for a few moments, while we mark the time and nature of this first colonial ships' departure. Full engines appear to be Online in good condition,...
Takeoff is smooth, acceleration moderate, and there we are. Chief Justice, could you comment on why the Control Alliances' similar request was denied?"
"The Control Alliances' request was dissimilar. They had acquired neither the property of their desired planet through proper auction, nor prepaid any agent to construct a ship capable of taking them to such a place to claim the planet they desired. The Control Alliance has no right to circumvent proper property claim procedures, and somehow demand a hold on unclaimed property for indefinite time until they are able to reach the properties' location."
"The Chief Justice has spoken, Citizens. For those of you interested in the Anarchistic Voyage, the ship offered brief interlink as a guest to the ships' commons discussion, until the ship reaches the distance of one light second from the capital."
... Members, there are four package choices, when it comes to supplies for your future. The first is a small set of Citizen Creation tools, for those beginning the first steps to operating a Citizen Factory. The second is ice penetration and openbore mining tools, for those seeking the quick mineral dollar. The third is a three part set: warehousing, radioactive collation and organic farming microtoolkits. Fourth, and probably the most important, but least available package, is the recharger construction kit. Road Tycoons will want these, as well as centralization advocates and the wealthy who desire an in home recharge.
The landing zone will be manned by choosen workers for the first eight tenths on our planet, selling recharge and additional supplies at a cost representative of their supply.
When the starliners come, along with many new citizens, they will bring additional supplies from home, but you must remember, everything will cost more here, transportation costs are high.
All property will be dispersed, before the drawing for package selection order. This allows each citizen to look at our limited surveys of their plot, and make a guess as to what will be the best use for that plot.
Until we land, though, lets party like the Creator was living! In your quarters, you should have directions as to where to go to meet up with the rest of us, live. You should also note the acceleration compass which notes where the force will push you during different stages of this flight. Good luck, and lets party!
* (Just so no one gets confused who this group of anarchists on the new planet are, they are anarcho-capitalists. They differ from the Foundation as a whole only in believing in no government instead of tiny government.)
The Starliner and Mystery Project Alpha
"The project Alpha is being coordinated and launched at an undisclosed location to the public or to other Groups. We have made preparations at great cost."
"Don't tell any members of my group the location yet, I will bring them there. Otherwise some members who are undoubtedly spies will hear of it. Plus, only a few hundred of our best members are coming."
"The Control Alliance will have its ship, good Citizen, and no one except FFCC will know about it. They might trace any extreme financial activities, if you had to borrow heavily."
"Well, we are rather tired of the Foundation, if the rest of our members work hard, they will be able to afford a colony of our own, until then we will make use of our ship."
"The FFCC welcomes your business, the present and future."
Zelleck was preparing for his full work duties on the new Freedom, the first FFCC Luxury class starliner.
The Captain arrived at Zelleck's quarters in the Starliner center. He prefered the informal name Zon and kept a lighthearted demeanor, important for a luxurious passenger ship. "Time to be ready, Zelleck. I'm sure you will be ready for the warehousing, never known anyone so young, yet so skilled in the art."
Improved storage techniques gave Freedom extra room for fuel supplies instead of cargo.
I suppose its easier with a society like the Foundation cause they always have various Groups battling (economically that is) with each other, and scandals and lots for the news services to keep up with.
Plus, if you think about the types that went off to colonize new continents in our world, that is the model I've made for the Groups that colonize new worlds. I don't just have regular foundation folks getting up and going off to a new world, I have all these different idealists who want to do things their way.
The Foundation is a lot like the Fazrah without weapons, and as robots.
