Thus, the Telepresence Unit remains both marvel and warning — a testament to Romulan intellect, and a reminder that the mind, unguarded, is the most dangerous weapon of all.

Still, the ethical burden is weighty. Remote warfare conceals the hand that strikes. The telepath becomes both weapon and witness, bound by Mnhei’sahe to strike cleanly and without cruelty.

To Romulans, this is not merely technology, but philosophy. The Unit affirms that the superior mind may transcend the fragility of flesh — an echo of D’era itself. Dominion through thought, precision through discipline.

The toll is considerable. Neural fatigue, identity drift, and psychic feedback have all been recorded. The Telepresence Unit demands more than skill — it requires the controlled surrender of self, the yielding of body to pure will.

Only those of immense mental discipline may endure such fusion. The mind must remain still, unwavering, lest emotional interference corrupt the signal. Even slight discord between intent and action can fracture command or destroy the vessel.

The Unit transmits thought and intent across subspace, allowing a single telepath to direct drones or warcraft from vast distances. It is not a simulation, nor mere control — it is full cognitive possession through refined neuro-quantum relay.

Among the more esoteric developments of the Imperial Sciences Directorate lies the Telepresence Unit — an instrument permitting direct neural command of unmanned vessels through telepathic interface. The mind, not the hand, becomes the helm.

The patience of the Romulan people is infinite. Every citizen knows the Federation’s fall is inevitable—it is simply a matter of time and timing. When their idealism finally cracks beneath reality, the stars themselves will realign beneath the outstretched wings of the Raptor.

Romulan strategy does not rely on open war. Instead, the Empire probes the Federation’s periphery, testing for fractures in its unity. Each incursion, each shadowed maneuver, measures how long the Federation’s diplomacy can hold before its structure inevitably collapses.

Still, the Empire does not underestimate its adversary. The war with Earth taught the Romulans that humans possess a resilience worthy of caution. Starfleet remains formidable, though fettered by its own ideals—a sword too noble to strike decisively when required.

To the Romulan eye, Federation democracy is chaos disguised as order. Debate without direction. Ethics without consequence. They drown in their own deliberations while the Empire moves with precision and intent. Their weakness lies in their need for approval before action.

The creed of D’era stands in total opposition to Federation idealism. They preach equality among species; Romulans know the truth—greatness is earned, not granted. The universe is not fair, nor should it be. Those who hesitate before their destiny are destined to be ruled.

That Vulcan ideology infects the Federation is no surprise. Its foundations reek of Surak’s teachings—logic elevated above passion, peace above purpose. They have diluted the fire that once burned in Vulcan hearts, choosing stillness over strength, surrender over command.

The Federation’s devotion to noninterference is its own cage. They explore endlessly but claim nothing, observe but never act. Such restraint is alien to the Romulan mind, which sees destiny as something to be seized, not politely requested. Power demands movement, not moderation.

The Romulan Empire views the United Federation of Planets as a fragile coalition held together by delusion. A society that mistakes sentiment for strength, and philosophy for progress. Their ideals—knowledge, equality, peace—are weaknesses, not virtues, in the eyes of D’era.

The Federation’s ideals are... intriguing. A civilization built on restraint, compromise, and endless debate. From a Romulan perspective, it is a fascinating flaw—one that reveals much about their nature.

The life of a client world depends upon loyalty. Those who obey the Empire’s law live orderly, dignified lives. Those who rebel against its hand… are made examples. Peace is a gift. Defiance, a lesson.

Client worlds are granted limited freedoms — local militias, trade fleets, culture. But the stars of war remain the Empire’s alone. The fleets, the weapons, the final authority — these belong to Romulus.
