Ronald begins DTA tour

Consul Ronald has begun a tour of DTA capitals, he arrived on Yeng earlier today for talks with the government and will also visit Sirikwan and the Voth over the next week. Ronald will discuss trade and cultural links with the DTA members, the hope is that now the initial security focussed phase is over the DTA can start to work towards greater economic cooperation.

After the Voth Ronald will leave the DTA and explore little known planets out far beyond Bolitic space, space that up until the invention of the worm drive was too far to visit. A Raegris mineral prospector is reported to have found 2 Saurian skeletons on a planet near Sygnet 80 recently and Ronald is keen to investigate this. It is thought many more of the colonies sent out by the Dinos in their now-lost first technological age existed than are known about now. The Bolitic, Sirikwanese, Yeng and Repic (who took part in the war on the Bolitic side but are little known to the Dinos) are known to have descended from these ancient colonists but is it thought there could be more Saurian populations out there, maybe not yet rediscovering spaceflight, or perhaps dying out.
