The Embassy, soon after the fall of the Extulian home world, had a surplus of aliens to take care of. Homeless and injured needed to be taken care of and once more the humans rose. They built massive structures and sent them to space, even building on their own worlds. Each ship, Each building perfectly designed for comfort and caring of many different species.

The Humans opened their homes and offered up their crafts. With skillful organization the Humans gathered up the homeless and gave them homes. Even giving scared and wide eyed Extulians a place among them.

Humans where savages on the battlefield, tearing down anyone who stood in their path.

But.

They were also artisans. Humans may not have to most advanced of technology but the entire universe stood in awe of their persistence. They did not let their restrictions limit them. They built monuments, a testament to their protective nature.

Massive ships and buildings meant to house the homeless. Where the Embassy had been doing everything they could to take care of their new people they too where stunned at the humans. The humans built and built and re-imagined and ventured “What if,” The Embassy and The Galaxy itself had to stand back and watch the humans raise these war torn planets and restore life to where there was once devastation.

Most races would have stopped. Thinking they had done enough by just fighting, but not the humans. No. They rose to the challenge once more, With their tools and minds at the ready. They sent out their workers this time, Architects and carpenters, and Construction workers. They sent Farmers and Teachers, They sent Scientists and Doctors.

The Galaxy was once taught that Humans where not to be fought, Now they stood humbled by the love these small creatures displayed.

They asked not for servitude, not even for payment. The humans bartered with knowledge. All they wanted was to learn about these new people, Their culture, their language. They shared meals and let their children play together. They shared stories and with those things, came unbreakable bonds of loyalty. There was no need for a legal alliance when the races shared a loyalty forged in war and freedom.

Humans may have a dark history, filled with blood and turmoil. They may have done despicable things to their own people. But. They always tried to progress, They always tried to move forward, get better, To BE better. 

Humans where tenacious in their pursuit of equality and progress.
