They would weep, They would pray, They would say goodbye to their loved ones, then throw themselves without fear or hesitation into the very face of death itself, never surrendering. No one who saw them fighting against the inevitable, could help but be moved to tears by their courage, their stubborn nobility. When they ran out of ships they used guns. When they ran out of guns they used knives and sticks, and bare hands. They were magnificent.

I like to think that in this universe Humans are outliners, normally an alien race will first create a technology to improve the quality of life of their civilians and then after quite some time they will find military aplications. Humans do the exact oposite, first they create big ass weapon of mass destrcution and only after some time, that tech is used outside militar aplications. Species like the Kor and Cl´Mir´Ni most likely had this process of tought, they belived that our weapons of war were not that advanced because of our civilian tech, so they were completely caught of gaurd when our ships had the ability to wipe out their military fleets on one shot.

Indeed. I thought of this earlier. "Humans may not be completely unified. However, all of that fighting amongst themselves has caused them to be quite adept at war. The tenacity that drove them to fling themselves at sub light speed towards a planet that they, nor their children, or their children's children had any hope of seeing; that has proved that if even a fraction of their species lives, they will never give in without a fight. The might of this race against those who would attack them, the rage that will never be forgotten due to that tenacity. That is why we are to Never attack them."

Humans are Cute… Until they’re not… A classic example of someone adopting an adorable if odd looking pet.

This you learn of course as it calmly and unobtrusively devours your enemies and leave their holdings in ruins.

The full secomd story It's very common for other races to find humans 'cute' as the adults are only half the size of even the shortest G'ling. They are small, normally smell alright and are always doing something bizarre and crazy. Much like children. So it was only natural when they joined the fold of the universe we took them in, much like children. We felt superior, as if we must guide and protect these humans, especially from themselves. Our race in particular is very close to humans. We particularly thought of humans as adorable children, and many of our female kind take to becoming nursery teachers for them, as we find them ever so adorable. We actively try to make sure all ships have one as well, not only for their cuteness but their amazing problem solving skills. And humorous mistakes. Helps pass the boring voyages. Humans were always watched where ever they went, and were surprisingly innovative in their designs and technology. It was much like handing a child a toy race car and coming back an hour later to find they had turned it into a remote control car. How you have no idea, but they look so happy that you can't bring to ask 'why did you do this?'. Well, we should have. When the Cl'mir'ni came, and attacked our planet, we thought we were dead. A race so powerful and advanced, we expected to have no chance. Still we aided our alien friends to safety, and tried to hold them off. We pleaded for aid from the mighty Zu'mog'ha. Alas, they were fighting to protect their territories. We resigned ourselves to death, and prayed our people-the little that we could fit on the colony fleet-could run far enough to survive. Somehow in the chaos, the humans were alerted. They sent the enemy one single word. And only once. -Run- But the Aliens did not heed their warnings. And so the humans came. And within an hour the ships threatening us lay in wreckage and scraps. We watched a video stream, transmitted to the whole galaxy, as the humans wiped them from our home sectors. It would have been stunning but never terrifying if they had stopped there. No, they didn't stop. They sent a single ship to their galaxy my friends. The ship went to the middle of its worlds. Then it booked it from the galaxy. Why? Were their armaments too hard to defeat? When it left they sent a single message to the enemy. Once again. -Surrender- The aliens doubted them, after all who can blame them? One ship enters and later flees? Well it wasn't fleeing we discovered. The camera feed switched to a box in the middle of space, with a planet in the far background, their home planet to be exact. I realized what the ships goal had been. It had dropped a black cube. It could be no taller than I, a being 2.5x bigger than the tallest human. But why? The answer came in a moment. All feeds cut out and then there was silence. Next was an active star chart, one that actively mapped out the galaxy of the enemies. A humans voice sounded. "Ah well, we only got half the galaxy. Well, it was the only half inhabited anyways. Ow! Sorry boss was that recorded?!" Next a stern man appeared, with another man running away behind him. "A notice the the universe, you do not attack our family." He looked seriously at the screen. A four legged animal ran up to the mans feet, and I noticed it looked surprisingly like our race. But much smaller. Very much smaller. And it... Barks?
