What would it look like if the Cat-Ear Cult built a vast empire spanning the galaxy?
On this strange worldline, the cat-eared folk living on an alien planet rose to prominence and raced into the galaxy first, founding a glorious and powerful Cat-Ear Empire.
"The cat-eared folk will one day conquer every star system in the galaxy. We uphold the principle of one empire, uniting every species in the galaxy beneath the Cat-Ears' banner!", A Cat-Ear Grand Chancellor.
"The Cat-Ear Empire's technology is the best in the galaxy!", A Cat-Ear Science Minister.
"Humanity demands independence! Humanity demands freedom!", A human independence movement leader.
"Eat my 3400 mm tachyon lance!", A Cat-Ear fleet commander.
"I am the Cat-Ears!", A Cat-Ear Empress.
"To the person above: the Empire is a constitutional monarchy.", A member of the Cat-Ear Imperial Council of Elders.
"Cat-Ear Dad, the Fallen Empire next door is picking on me!", A vassal state's president.
"To all the nations here, I'm not singling out any one of you. I mean you're all garbage.", The Fallen Empire's daddy.
This is the story of the cat-eared folk dominating a galaxy already torn by war and thrown into chaos.
P.S. I borrowed a few concepts from Stellaris. Paradox definitely won't mind, hehe~☆.
P.S. 2: The author can't do anything except start new stories, so there's no hope of this one being finished. Read at your own risk.
