[ WP ] A peaceful alien race is besieged by another race in the same galaxy . As their last planets fall and their home-world comes under threat they do the unthinkable . They ask for aid from the only known creatures more brutal than their foes in exchange for FTL technology . Humans accept the deal .

The Fothrill had betrayed us. 
 
 We Esvenkin was an old race, and yet we were strangers to war. And thus, as the Fothrill army marched through our planets and colonies, we could n't do anything. And in spite of that, the Council of Elders in our home world could do nothing but quarrel. 
 
 `` I'd told ye, giving Fothrill FTL drive was a bad idea. They're too young, too unstable a variable to us.'' 
 
 `` We're strangers to war, and even the Fothrill merely adopted war.'' 
 
 `` We need a race born in it, a force that even the Fothrill would never be able to match'' 
 
 `` That would bring forth a new enemy for Esvenkin.'' 
 
 `` Not if we could control them. There would be no second Fothrill, we have to offer alliance that lock ourselves in mutual dependency'' 
 
 `` The only ones are...'' 
 
 `` Humans'' 
 
 `` No! They are too young, even younger than the Fothrill. They WILL betray us.'' 
 
 `` Not if we keep the FTL drive technology secret. They will depend on us to provide FTL drive, and they will protect us in return'' 
 
 `` I hope we are right, brother. Those who agree?'' 
 
 Almost all of the council raised their tentacle. 
 
 `` I pray to Arthiem that we made the right decision.'' 
 
 The next day, we contacted the human, and Arthiem how we made a mistake. Humans were n't as stupid as we thought. In one of their year, they managed to make their own FTL drive engine without we noticing. In three years, the Fothrill were reduced to one colony, and in the fourth,,,,,, 
 
 `` Humans ship incoming! A whole Assault-class fleet!'' 
 
 `` *This is human ship Encountrad, surrender the colony or we would attack. We will wait for a standard day. *'' 
 
 Arthiem damn it. One by one, the recently released colony were captured by humans, until Esvenkin were reduced to one colony. 
 
 And yet they did n't stop. 
 
 The Dwarrhien, the Gremlin, the Sarwathi, the Drak were conquered by the humans. 
 
 We have awakened the race sealed by the Aesir, and nothing could stop them from destroying the galaxy.....
