Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Bits o' Legionnaire Business Legion Worlds Ten - the final chapter. Started 17 Dec 24

This is part ten of the Legion World's stories. It will be the final section.

There will be a lot happening as a few dangling plot lines will get resolved, I'll attempt to clear up a mystery or two, introduce a couple of surprise guests, and have a few adventures along the way.

Though before all of that, here is a list of the current dramatis personae - there are a lot, and I'm posting this list here as much as a reminder for me as for you so that I don't forget anyone Don't feel you need to read and remember these as roll calls will be added at relevant sections.

Encyclopedia Galactica - the Forever Pilgrimage

The definitive history of the Forever Pilgrimage is unknown and possibly will never be known as there are so many rumours, stories and legends around their history and origin it is impossible to discern a definitive truth.

By the time it was first spotted within the section of the Milky Way now known as the United Planets, there were already several dozen races involved. The history we have comes from hearsay told by those that have travelled with the Pilgrims themselves and not from any official documented source.

It is most often said that many thousands of cycles ago a world was destroyed by a meteor strike, though before that happened the indigenous species managed to create a fleet of crafts to take a select few off world to seed another planet. The whereabouts of this original planet is unknown, as is the exact length of time since its destruction. It has been theorised that if this story is true then the original race are now most likely to have fully adapted to their journey in space so are no longer looking for a world to colonise.

There are one hundred and thirty-three large zeppelin shaped crafts called the Original Arcs that lead and shepherd the Pilgrims journey. These appear to all be constructed using the same technology and to the same design specifications, and are understood to be the original crafts used by the species that fled their world. We must bear in mind that no official confirmation has ever been given.

What is documented is that Coluan astronomers first recorded seeing the Pilgrim's fleet over five thousand years ago. Since then, the Pilgrims have continued their zig zagging course through the Milky Way having little or no contact with the various species and galactic empires that they encounter. It is estimated that currently there are upwards of six million sapient beings from a wide variety of races and worlds that are on this pilgrimage.

The Pilgrims will welcome any craft into their convoy so long as they agree to follow their principles - they are pacifists with a basic barter culture. No violence or disharmonious behaviour will be tolerated. Despite being an obvious target for the unscrupulous, the Pilgrims will eject anyone who breaks their principles and have incredibly strong force field technology that protects them from physical threats from outside their convoy.

At various points in the last few thousand years, the Pilgrimage has been joined by many beings from the United Planets worlds (and beyond) wishing to leave their own circumstances, hoping that the pilgrimage will lead them to a better existence. Many scientists, artists, and scholars from a multitude of species have taken part in the Pilgrimage at points in their careers. Some of these stayed for only a year or two, while others have remained for longer, and in several well documented cases their families have stayed for generations. It is from those that left the Pilgrimage that we have our limited understanding of the society that has evolved amongst the many crafts that are involved in their seemingly endless journey.

It is known that within the caravan of crafts there are large farm domes, traderships and many ice water comets caught and held in stasis fields by the Original Arcs. These ensure all that join the Pilgrimage are kept supplied with the essentials while they travel.

HOPE WORLD specialising in disaster relief.

Dream Girl- Team leader - Nura Nal of Naltor - precognition

Dream Girl stood beside the young Dominator they had taken to call Ivy in the middle of the Command Deck of Hope World.

On the screen in front of her were images of the Pilgrims, their massive egg-shaped force field and several dozen pirate crafts attempting to breach it. From what Nura could see, it appeared that the majority of the attackers were of Khund design, though they ranged in sizes from single-being crafts to at least one sleek - and most likely heavily modified - Sunskimmer yacht.

"Thom, are you ready?" Even as she asked, Nura signaled for the warp to open. She could see on the holo-monitor that Star Boy, Mama Tank and Orion, joined by Atom Girl from First Base were ready for this mission. Sylva had called Nura directly that morning asking if they needed any help as there were no missions currently showing on the Monitor Board on First Base. Nura had gratefully accepted the Imskian's offer.

Three hours later and here they were; Sylva was on a mission to invade a Khund pirate Command ship. Well, that should stop her from getting bored, Nura thought with a smile.

The Naltoran team leader also knew that the four of them were going to be enough to take control of the Command craft that was controlling the aggressive fleet currently harassing the Forever Pilgrims. She also knew that as much as he huffed and puffed, Thom liked the adrenaline rush he'd be getting as they stepped onto the Khund warship.

Outside of Hope World, Groovy led Dkyun Mu, the Green Lantern - also seconded for this mission from the main team - out to stop the pirate attack ships from causing too much harm. The Daxamite was probably powerful enough to repel the vast majority of the attacking pirate fleet by himself - he was certainly enthusiastic enough to try - though with the calmer Xudarian at his side, Nura was a lot more confident that they would take care of the aggressors while keeping the Pilgrims safe from harm.

The rest of the team were standing by to offer support to any of the Pilgrims that required it.

Before leaving on this mission, Nura had ensured that Hope World was fully stocked up on medical supplies and fresh produce, along with some common materials and technology that any of those on the pilgrimage may need upgrading. It was just a matter of waiting for the signal to say the Khunds attack had been stopped and any potential risks to the innocents were past before the team could distribute their offerings. Nura had foreseen it would happen in fourteen minutes, but for a precognitive of her calibre, those fourteen minutes were intensely frustrating!

Still, after that, Nura knew that they would be here for another eleven hours straight as they made sure that the Pilgrims were all safe and well, and perhaps they might have some fun too...

Inter-ship School Journal of Seve Dalore-Candas, age eight and a half.

Yesterday was the scariest and best day of my life!

When the pirates attacked us Mummy said we would be okay, she told me the One Thirty Three would circle the wagons around us to keep us safe. This wasn't the first time we've been attacked. There are a lot of things out there that might attack us. I was born here but Mummy wasn't, so she knows what's out there far more than I do, or at least that's what she says. She had us bundled up in the escape pod just in case the pirates got through the shield. The pirates were Khunds. Mr Drachnachyak who runs the traders' ship that comes round every ten-day says they weren't decent Khunds like him, these were the real bad ones!

The shield the One Thirty-Three put round the Pilgrims was glowing and flashing from the attack, it was scary as we've never seen that before, even when we skim Oort Clouds! Mummy said not to worry as they would not get through, but I was still really scared.

We was listening to the inter-comms when the Legion sent a message saying they were here to help. I think I saw a tear fall in Mummy's eye as she stopped holding me so tight and started to smile. It was weird... I never saw an actual Legionnaire until later that day though Mummy said that they had saved her all those years ago on Korlon when her homeworld died.

It was only fifteen minutes later but felt like hours that they sent out another broadcast. They invited anyone who wanted a quick check up over to their amazing planetoid base, and of course over two thousand of us said we'd go!

It took three and a half hours until our name was called and it was the longest three and a half hours in my life but they... I don't know what it was but it spun in the air of our Headdeck, all golden and purple and we stepped through and we were in this garden that smelled of lots of living plants and crops and fruits I couldn't name, Mummy said after it smelled of salvation.

There was real Legionnaires standing right there in front of us as we stepped through the disc.

They looked beautiful!

Mummy hugged them all, even the strange rock-like ones they called Bludgers that stood by, and told them all this was the second time they had saved her life.

There were a dozen other families there as well but a Legionnaire with wings and blue skin asked me if I would like to fly with him. I was scared but nodded and he picked me up and flapped his wings and we flew round the garden. I screamed and he laughed before he dropped me back where he had picked me up. He said I was really brave to go flying with him. It was amazing!

Before we left ten minutes later, we were given a bag of sweet treats and mine had lots of nice things and something called a pomegranate that I had never tried before and they gave us some new clothes, medicines four litres of neutral synth-gloop for the meal replicators, two rev-plugs for the shuttle and everything we needed.

I told Mummy when we got back to homeship that one day I'll make her proud as I want to be a Legionnaire now too.

I will be a Legionnaire one day, I will!

I'll post more before Christmas as Mon El discovers the Legion aren't the only super group trying to defend the Fringe Worlds, then after that Chameleon Boy gets an introduction to an old frenemy of the team, Nura announces some plans that will change the team and Ayla plays with butterflies, kind of... More, more, more coming soon - Enjoy!

Hi, Harbi,

I feel so lucky I got in on the ground floor for your final Legion Worlds storyline.

The first chapter is wonderful! Nura is a personal favorite, and I'm glad to see that she still puts so much importance on having fun. That's so her! The pilgrim boy and his mother are both very likable.

Looking forward to finding out what Nura's plans are, which old frenemy Cham is going to encounter, which other super group wants in on the action, and whatever Ayla turns out to be up to (she's another personal favorite.)

yay, LW 10 is off!

a bit sad that you're going to end with this, on the eager hand, also really eager!

loving the journal entry, nice way to show what happened!

cool detail that a Khund is among the Pilgrims!

aw, so cool about the kid's mum having been saved by the Legion once.

Man, that Forever Pilgramage is amazing!

(I've always wondered if there would be something like that in the Marvel universe. Races whose homeworlds were eaten by Galactus, who had colonies on other worlds, or delegations off-world when it happened, now stuck sort of 'Galactic Homeless' and wandering in a vast convoy, perhaps not even *wanting* to settle on another planet that could *also* get eaten! And, of course, a faction of zealots who are convinced that worlds that get eaten by Galactus are being judged somehow, and failing, unlike the worlds, like Earth, that successfully fight him off and live another day, and the survivors of worlds that got destroyed must be hunted down and eliminated, to complete the 'holy work' of Galactus, which they have decided is judging the fitness of species to survive, and culling the unworthy from the universe...)
