-Telos, New Coronet-

The Amber Dawn sits docked at a half-built aerospace dock, boarding gangways extended to her airlocks. Captain Keysmith has gone to Admiral Arents to personally report the findings in the asteroid belt.

Arents: "Captain, please come in. I hear you have news for me."

Keysmith: "Yes, we've found a Ceres-sized planetoid. It has a high metal content, and would serve well given the requirements I was told."

Arents: "Excellent. High Command shall be informed immediately. You have done well, captain, but you must never speak of this to anyone below the rank of Admiral, or not permanently assigned to Telos. To anyone not privy to this information, there is nothing out there. All records on your ship are to be erased. Understood?"

Keysmith: "Yes sir, orders received and understood."

Arents: "Good, dismissed."

''Later, AIF High Command seems the planetoid the location of a new, beyond top secret base and shipyard. The planetoid and base are code named Fondor, and only a select few on Earth know what it's true purpose is. The next day, mining equipment arrives, and construction of a base begins. Orbital shipyards begin construction, mining vessels harvest valuable ores to construct more shipyards, and underground bunkers are hollowed out of the Fondor Planetoid for a new Superfactory. Parts are subtlety sent to build several ODP stations of the same types as around Telos. AIF personnel, all of whom have little to no family ties, are put on permanent assignment to the new base, essentially disappearing....

The shipyards will take three weeks to reach operational status, the Superfactory, a month.
