As the 4th Race traveled past the 2 million light year mark on their way to the “Twin” galaxy – they noticed that an entire Quadrant of the galaxy was dark – as if the stars had been turned off!  The 4th Race periodically stopped in the star void to navigate and place beacon buoys. By the time they reached 2.1 million light years – 2 more Quadrants had winked out!  At 2.25 million light years – the Twin was almost completely dark!  The 4th Race astronomers estimated that 90% of the stars in the Twin galaxy were no longer producing light.  The 4th Race astronomers could not explain this phenomenon. One thing was certain – they would not be able to colonize the Twin galaxy as they had originally planned.

The lead elements of the 4th Race expedition ran into the reason - a massive alien invasion force that had come to the local group from the Hercules star clusters.  The 4th Race astronomers could see a line of blackened galaxies that went back through the Hercules clusters.  The astronomers had not been looking at it or any other galaxies on the long trip – concentrating on the stars in the Twin galaxy to determine where they needed to settle.  In fact it was a young child that noticed the change in the Hercules clusters.  

The Invaders were no longer alive – but their ships continued to consume entire galaxies!

This is the continuing story of the lengendary 7 Sisters.  The autonomous heavily armed sentient battleships designed, built, raised and trained by the 6th Race to serve the galactic Union.   The Seven Sisters enforced Galactic Law with honor and integrity since they were commissioned in the Union Navy – four and half billion years ago.  In the days before the collaspe of the Union the Sisters were never challenged, their mere appearance would bring an end to conflicts in the galaxy.  They continued to perform their noble purpose – even after losing two of their own – and after the Union began to collapse 200 million years ago...

The genius rescued by the Commander of the 7 Sisters brought forth two new Sisters, after mastering the technology of the 6th Race, thus restoring the Sisters to their original strength.  The “new Baby Sisters” – though teenagers – have proven themselves worthy to bear the name bestoed upon their Aunts and Mothers by the Union.  The Commander realized this genius could restore the Union Navy and gave him everything he needed to accomplish the task.

Then the only surviving Union Planetary Army Dominator – after sacrificing himself to stop a great evil bent on enslaving the entire galaxy – found the lost brother of the 7 Sisters.   He was the first Union Artificial Life form Cruiser created by the 6th Race.  The official Union history recorded the first 6th Race Cruiser went insane – attacked its creators and then fled the galaxy!  The official Union history was wrong...
