"Answer it." She said.

A sinister, inhumanly deep and menacing voice spoke through the ship's communicator.
"I am Anubis, God of Death and the Underworld. You will power down your ship, lay down your weapons, and submit to my will, surrendering yourselves and your belongings to my glory. You will do this, or you will die."

Henrietta looked at her crew, then answered. "Target the source of those communications and open fire!"
7 stones in VO to target the main ship.

"On it!" Morrigan said cheerfully, as they opened fire towards the bridge of one of the three capital ships! Which, despite being visibly quite advanced technologically, apparently wasn't quite on the level of the Guardian and its borderline laws of physics-breaking weaponry. The gravity torpedo and the solar flare beam annihilated the enemy's shields and caused visible damage to its hull, apparently causing the small fleet to hesitate.
"I'm... detecting multiple other signals coming out of warp speed. Scanning... dozens more ships similar to those, but... huh. They're with... a ship with a human designation and registration codes. A... Daedalus-class Battlecruiser, the USS Hammond."
Another communication was sent to both the Guardian, and apparently, their attackers. This time, the voice was much more human, that of a man.
"Oh, please. We know Anubis, and you, sir, are no Anubis. How about you take your band of little wannabes and buzz off outta here before we turn your sorry asses into cosmic dust?"
The inhuman voice from earlier responded, positively dripping with anger. "This... isn't over, O'Neill. I'll have your head for this."
"Oooooh. Am so scared. Please don't", the man responded as the small fleet which had attacked Henrietta's ship made a quick jump out of the system. "That was some serious firepower you used. You okay in there?"

"Yeah. Thanks for the assist." She said nodding.

The battlecruiser came into view along with a whole dozen of those alien pyramid ships.
"Ah, couldn't have done it without our big, friendly buddy over there. I'm colonel Jack O'Neill, of the USS Hammond. Those morons who attacked you are remnants from the Go'auld fleet of the actual Anubis, little more than pirates in this territory, which is actually Baphomet's territory. Unlike those idiots, Baphomet is actually a... hmm. Ally is a strong word. Let's say 'less of a pain in the ass' of us humans", he said.
"Your... diplomatic skills are always appreciated, colonel", a similarly inhuman as before voice said, this time slightly more feminine? It was rather hard to tell over the comm.
"Anyway, we'll leave it to 'em to hunt them down, so they shouldn't bother you anytime soon."

"Okay. Thanks." She said before bringing the ship down for a landing.
7 stones in VO.

Leaving the location of the earlier space battle, the Guardian entered the planetary atmosphere and landed safely next to a large river and an exotic-looking forest with gigantic trees reaching hundreds of feet into the sky, and many other, smaller plants all over the place.

Eagerly stepping off the planet Henrietta started by gathering resources.
20 stones in Starborn (Gather Resources) to gather what might be useful.

She recovered a large amount of useful materials, but more importantly, an even larger amount of a metal ore she had never seen before.

"Hmmm... Interesting, I wonder what this is?" She asked holding the ore up to a scanner.
10 in technology to use a scanner of some sort to find out what the Ore is.

Her analysis revealed something quite interesting.
The metal was sentient - to some extent, anyway. It could sense emotions and willpower, and respond to it. The metal would respond to, and obey, the strongest will in the room, provided the person gifted with it was aware of that fact.

"Interesting." Henrietta said sharing her findings with the crew.

"You're right... this is actually extremely versatile. Imagine the possibilities", Kisara pondered. "The metal will alter its form and move in space according to a skilled user's command. You could make bullets which obey thoughts, a morphing weapon, an universal tool... so many other things", she pondered.

"Indeed. I'll have to experiment with it later." She said. "Now who wants to go and explore with me?" She asked.
