It had begun - first contact had yielded the first blood. The Alltier knew that this was a delicate situation; after all, he thought, the icon that was his position was a two-way path - the people must dedicate themselves to propel his position, to in turn propel the people to ever higher heights. The state must not withdraw from its mission to expand and enhance the prosperity of citizenry and state alike.
Yet it was still such a small thing, to convince the Alltier Office conclave. A establishment of minor military forces, to ward off the potential of foreign armed craft. A budget was quickly agreed to and pushed towards agreement with the civilian staff. The head of the civilian economic apparatus, CEPA, however was made of sterner stuff, with long discussions and threats about "shattering the budget". This was foolhardy, for resource stocks, even excluding possible civilian appropriations were sufficient to allow industrial production to surge ahead, and the plan was passed in full.

Hassaen (Construction Union of the Alltier) glanced around from the orbital platform at the growing industrialisation of the old coreworld, the Seat of the Alltier. Being coopted from the CEPA industrial section to facilitate a crash development program, he was initially unsure about being brought into this new group from his old 'family', especially when this Alltier had acted with more independence and interventionism than even prior occupants of the Alltier position. However he had quickly assumed his role within the growing group, helped by the Alltier declaring the New Industrial Scheme would operate with a semi-independed review board.
He stared intently as various multi-use jigs were laboriously being fed from a series of transport rockets, and the new supply Tether was floating in the background awaiting final supply connection, all while another two were various stages of completion. To be sure these were of a lighter class than the older heavy Omni designs, designed to obtain the most use out planetary component producers. Soon the program would be freed from the introspective development phase and usher in a new wave of orders from approved Purchase Partners as the Union Yards.
In his mind he could see the possibilities of further expansion, to secure the ability of the Alltier to further guide his people into greater security, even with the unnerving foreign groups so close to the homelands. "Another year" he quietly murmered as reverberations from a thousand vacuum welders arced across the shell, "Another year and we can prove it all".
