Chapter 4: Power of Marduk

The Marduk fleet of fifteen battleships, one command ship, ten destroyers, one flag ship and three Marduk scouts had arrived at the battle, but... Would these thirty ships be enough against a thousand?
The Romulins taken by surprise left their fleet immobile for a couple of seconds, fatal mistake because 17 reflex cannons had already been fired at them, destroying some 283 ships in an instant, and if this were not enough, all the ships launched their heavy rays and their anti-bulk missiles and torpedoes later, charging 84 other ships.
The Romulans could not believe it, but their captains, seeing that the fate of the empire was in this battle, decided to engage in a close struggle against the Marduk. However, the absurd number of cannons, turrets, missile launchers and torpedoes in each ship proved to the Romulans that both a nearby and a distant battle was not feasible, and more than 300 Romulin ships were destroyed in close combat.
The Romulins tried to take advantage of the superior mobility of their ships, but the absurd number of propellers of the Marduk ships deceived them.
Despite the gigantic sizes of the Marduk ships, they moved very fast, so the Romulans decided to attack with their transport ships, which because of their size were faster than the Marduk, but suddenly, large numbers of pods and power armors left the ships, which with their devilish speed and manoeuvres destroyed these Romuline ships. Ishtar motivated her troops with her singing, which was heard by both Romulans and DS-9 residents.
“Sir, all enemy ships were destroyed," an officer told Feff.
“There were many ships, but we took full advantage of the surprise factor," Feff said.
“Fortunately, the enemy did not have any pods or combat mechs," said another Marduk officer.
“Their rays and torpedoes were more advanced than our weapons, but they didn't have enough of them, and no matter how many of them had shields, no shield lasts forever, especially if it is subjected to Marduk fire," Feff concluded.
“It was an easy battle, Lady Ishtar's intervention was not necessary at the end," an officer said.
“The song was necessary, otherwise we would have lost zentran and meltran soldiers," said Ishtar, who had just entered the bridge. “Remember that now the zentran and meltran are no more objects than we can dispose of at will, they are people like us and we must treat them as equals.”
“It's a pity that our medical technology is so inferior to theirs, but we'll do what we can.”
The DS-9, though battered, had survived.

In Bayor, the funerals of several of the station's crewmen, whether they were Bayoran or from other planets of the Federation, took place, since the fallen had expressed their desire to be buried on the planet for which they had fought so much before and during the war against the Dominion.
Dax and Chief O' Brien's funerals were painful for Sisko, as Dax was his mentor and the commander felt guilty about O' Brien's wife and children.
“At least they had a beautiful funeral," Kira tried to console him. Sisko knew that several Bayoran belonging to the resistance against the Kardasians did not have that luxury.
“We will remember them as the heroes who were," Worf said solemnly.
“I will remember them as my friends," answered the commander.
Due to the incident with the fleets belonging to the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon and Romulin Empires; in the end the Marduk decided to accept the invitation offered by the Betazed planet and settle there. The DS-9 and the wormhole was a "hot spot" that would always attract conflicts of any kind.

Several weeks later, Commander Sisko was getting ready for a ceremony in Betazed.
“It is fortunate that the wedding doesn't follow the customs of Betazed," Sisko said with a smile, "I don't want to have to walk around naked all the time.”
“The only one who wouldn't be affected by that would be Odo," Dr. Bashir said amusingly, "I heard that soon he and Kira would set a wedding date, I wonder what the Dominion's wedding ceremonies will be like?”
“As long as I don't have to get undressed, I don't worry," said Worf, who looked uncomfortable in his gala costume.
“You know, Lady Ishtar told me everything about how the dictator Ingues took the Marduk away their entire culture, I'm sure she and Feff will create a wonderful culture here in Betazed.”
“They will certainly succeed, not only as the top leaders of the Marduk, but as future marriage partners.”
“I would have liked the ceremony to have taken place in space, I heard that there will be a formation of ships and mechs during this, and they will also fire several rails from their ships, a spectacle worth seeing in person and not by a monitor," said Worf who continued to accommodate his suit.
“Thousands of Marduk ships came to this sector after the battle on the DS-9, I never believed there were so many ships in the universe and all of them Marduk," said Bashir, who helped Worf with his suit.
“They didn't even need to use the wormhole, they transposed directly over Bayor," Sisko said.
“I almost did it in my pants," said Bashir, "but surely that's what convinced the Federation to leave the Marduk alone, well, hundreds of thousands of warships make that effect... Worf, stay still and stop making that face because you only wore the suit for a couple of hours!”

CONTINUING MONOGRAPHIC WORK.
CONSEQUENCES OF THE BATTLE OF DS-9 AND THE MARDUK ENCOUNTER.
FINAL POST :
Before the war against the Dominion, both the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon and Romulin Empires, each had an average of 10,000 ships against the 30,000 that had the domain.
The war weakened the three powers mentioned above and the Dominion and its allies saw their military power destroyed forever. But the worst would come later with the Marduk arrival.
I would like to say that the Federation of Planets, which always declared inter-species understanding as a priority, acted with honor, but that was not the case.
Klingon with its depleted fleet had to surrender 90% of its territory to the Federation due to military pressures from the Starfleet and economic pressures from the Federation.
Romulus, for his part, delivered 90% and after 80 years was absorbed by other local powers as well as Klingon. Both empires disappeared to no longer emerge.
Bayor was never able to regain his independence from the United Federation of Planets, due to its importance as the Federation's satellite planet.
It was ironic that the extension the Federation achieved after the Federation's battle with the Klingon-Romulus-Marduk on the DS-9 led to the collapse of the Starfleet throughout.
The fact of having to control such vast territories meant that many ships were lost in conflicts of diverse nature, and this, coupled with the fact that the ships were declared obsolete due to the power of the Marduk ships, caused the spacecraft yards to stop producing any kind of prearrival Marduk ships.
The Federation, although it exists today, no longer represents the union of political and military power that it once possessed, without the star fleet, it was the Marduk fleets that took over and these have total independence from the Federation, obeying only the existing council in Betazed, made up of betazeds, marduks, emulators and also zentrans and meltrans, the latter two of which enjoy all the rights and obligations of all the citizens from the planet.
The Marduk fleets currently represent a kind of galactic police that resolves conflicts of various nature upon request (not to order) from the Federation of United Planets.
END OF THE ENTRANCE.
CONTINUED AND FUTURE REVISION IN THE FUTURE.

,"Well, I'm almost done.” Said a lovely young girl in front of a holographic monitor.
“Diana, are you ready?” asked a tall young man who was entering the room.
“Yes, I'll finish it tomorrow. What about you, Feral?”
“Ready for the ceremony, I still can't believe that the grandparents abdicated and now I will be the supreme leader of the Marduk lords.”
“And I am the Supreme Priestess of the emulators. Well, the grandparents deserved a break after working so hard, now that they enjoy their lives.”
“We better leave or dad and mom would release the sermon," said the boy, and the girl before leaving the room gave it a last look at the painting of her grandparents, a couple in full bloom of their youth. They wore wedding gowns and next to them were a couple of terrestrials, a Klingon, a Bayoran and a shape-shifter who seemed to be fighting with a Ferengi trying to get into the picture... Everyone looked so happy, happy for the promise of a union that would bring peace to every corner of the galaxy, a union that would keep everyone together and in harmony.
THE END
