"While she was alive, the Federation still maintained the integrity and humility it had since Her Highness Aimiulalin's reforms. Society was stable, and all kinds of matters could be handled diligently, far beyond what you can imagine now."
"But ever since she left, the Federation has not seen another Sunshine-level Songstress. People from all walks of society have gradually beco divided, and the nearly two-hundred-year peace has quietly moved towards fragntation. Although it hasn't completely degenerated, it is indeed far worse than that era."
"After talking about this great songstress predecessor, I'll now show so rather failed scenarios."
Then the image shifted again, with the surrounding scene spinning in light and shadow. Shortly after, the six once again appeared in another spatiotemporal setting.
In the night sky, red stars flickered and occasionally drifted past. From afar, the ground occasionally erupted with bursts of intense light and sound, and nearby was a battlefield full of ruins, with many areas still steaming with heat and smoldering dark red substances.
Behind a tall building, accompanied by the roar of airflow, a large Floating Mother Ship slowly appeared, its six arms on the sides unfolding like wings. From them, silver-green chas flew out, swiftly crossing the battlefield and rushing into the distance, soon causing more flas to erupt in the far-off sky.
[Year 802 of the Sixth Era, Northern Hobbit Star Domain, Thorned Poplar - Σ Star]
Roaring warplanes flew across the sky, followed by a dazzling beam that scorched the building's structure, which then gradually collapsed like lting wax. Thereafter, a Starship, several kiloters long, slowly broke through the clouds, the mist and airflow it stirred passing continuously over its surface.
On its outer layer, silver-green and red-copper chas battled each other, the aftermath of their bombardnts and cuts pockmarking the Starship's surface. Yet even so, the Starship remained like an unshakable giant wheel, slowly crashing into the Floating Mother Ship ahead, the sweeping beams dismbering it before turning it into fiery debris that fell into the ruins below.
Not long after, the Starship gradually flew over the now-ruined cityscape, and as it passed over mountainous peaks, twelve large Floating Mother Ships awaited silently above the endless plains. At that mont, the fighter planes and chas they deployed ascended almost simultaneously, giving the Starship no ti to react, while a sky full of firing light flows engulfed everything.
Minutes later, the Starship crashed onto the mountain range, its massive hull crushing the mountain tops as it slid down the slope, with so large buildings being crushed and flattened like ants along the Starship's path.
Once the Starship stopped, the chas launched another raid forward, slicing through the Starship's weak areas and starting to infiltrate its interior to search for surviving enemies.
"Let it end here." Such words echoed on the battlefield, and shortly after, a Songstress dressed in a robe interwoven with bright red and orange appeared on the outer deck of a Floating Mother Ship.
'Orange Firebird' Fanny, a famous Glowing Moon-level Songstress of that era, was gentle and kind-hearted all her life. She went to the battlefield during the Northern Hobbit rebellion in the year 802 of the Sixth Era to persuade surrender, hoping to pacify the residents of the Hobbit Star Domain.
Using the unique Talent of a Songstress, orange-red light dots scattered across the battlefield to soothe the departed souls, and her voice also reached inside the Starship, attempting to stop the fighting between both sides.
If both sides stopped the war and shook hands, this might have been a legendary scene, rembered by the Federation and passed down as beautiful words for posterity.
Initially, the battle inside the Starship indeed gradually cald down. Under the Songstress's strong influence, both sides sowhat held back, and then the Starship's commanders and High Rank officers, along with only dozens of Military ch Armor, slowly walked out of the Starship.
Thus, the exchange of fire stopped, and the disadvantaged Starship side surrendered. The Federal Military responsible for the suppression then confiscated weapons and prepared to detain and imprison them.
At this ti, the captain from the Starship side requested to see Fanny, stating that they stopped because of 'Orange Firebird' Fanny's song, and this request felt reasonable.
After much hesitation, under Fanny's initiative, a eting between both sides was arranged.
"If you are truly kind, you would not have co to the battlefield." This was the last sentence Fanny heard before being shot.
This 'Orange Firebird' Songstress was pierced through the chest by a high-radiation firearm, her entire body burning and lting within seconds, leaving no chance for resurrection. Although the Starship officers who had feigned surrender were executed on the spot, Fanny's death fueled the Federation's official wrath, leading to a harsher and more brutal suppression of the rebellion and planting deeper seeds of hatred in the Hobbit Star Domain.
Later historians believe this rebellion was actually one of the sparks that led to the subsequent civil war in the Federation, as the severe suppression tactics of the Federal Official left no room for reconciling many conflicts, forcing a one-way path to darkness.
The image gradually dimd, and then the scene shifted again, the group reappearing in a snowy and icy landscape.
Broad plains of ice stretched as far as the eye could see, dotted with many white buildings that blended with the surrounding environnt, while crescent-shaped shuttlecraft flew over the sky, scattering colorful ice shards.
The view followed the flight of birds, continuously moving forward, passing through towering structures on the ground, diving past the people walking along the road, and finally arriving in front of a tall stage, where a woman dressed in a fur coat stood. She was smoothing her long white braided hair on one side, placing her hands together lightly in front of her, and bowing in greeting to the tens of thousands of gathered spectators below.
