Illara Lalonde, stood on the balcony of her penthouse in consensus tower, the heart of the final free solari territory on kerbin, she had heard the news of the landing, her grandfather's fleet, the culmination of the grand solari exodus had finally been completed. A national obsession of the solari consensus and its successor states going back over a 200 years, right back to the days of the original minmus cantons.
She mused over the speech she knew must now be given, for decades, free solari had lived under the kind stewardship of the Aenian nation and remained active and vibrant participants in the UIF parliament. Indeed all solari had dual citizenship such was the bond between Aenia and Solaria, up to and including them throwing themselves out into the void to join us. But the landing cast things in a new light. She turned and re entered the cavernous apartment, her footsteps giving a staccato echo as she took the podium, guards flanking her as the faced the microphone.
"Solarian. Its a term that has been used in the past to deacribe my people, its a phrase that once all cantons uttered to declare a single identify dispite our fierce individuality. And those of us, the archons, the first citizens on our proud nation bore the responsibility of listening to those disparate voices and tacking a course for us all. Just as my ancestor Ilandra Kerman did diromg the reconstruction and first exodus. Just as my grandfather had done at Babdab completing the exodus. Just as I must do now." She took a hitching breath aware that the next words she spoke would change the destiny of millions in and beyomd the kerbol system.
"With the foundation of the Solari Cantons on babdab we too on kerbin restore the canton system. I hereby declare, to all free solari throughout kerbal space that you have a home once again, you have a voice that does not depend on the kindness of our allies, the vibrant beating hearts inside each and every one of you that still has the need for freedom, the desire to explore and have your voices heard will be held once agsin in the hand of those who know WHAT IT IS TO BE SOLARI." Figjtimg back emotion she returned eyes of steel back to the camera.
"I have sent formal notification to our allies within the Senate and parliament of the uif that the solari canton of korfu has reverted by ancient treaty to the primary governance of the Solari Consensus. We have already sent word to all free solari cantons throughout the kerbol system and beyond, that the Consensus Stands." There is no further elaboration. No further elaboration was needed. The forms had been obeyed. The die of fate had been cast and the soalri consensus of worlds had been reborn.
