Welcome to the Song of Airissuin site on the Rihannsu computer network. If you are accessing this site from the Federnet, please note that the logs contained herein are entirely fictional. No crew like that of the Airissuin actually exists in the Rihannsu Imperium. Please also note that translations into your Standard language may not be accurate or complete. We strive for accuracy, but some cultural differences are simply not translatable. Any questions?

What's a Rihannsu?

The Rihannsu are usually called "Romulans" outside their own territory. The singular is Rihanha.

Why stories about a Romulan crew? Why not humans?

Don't you think there are enough stories about humans (and Vulcans, Klingons, Bajorans, Andorians, et al) floating about already? The Rihannsu would like to show the rest of the galaxy that they are quite entertaining people.

So what's an Airissuin?

That's the ship. It is named for a region on ch'Rihan (the home planet, as opposed to ch'Havran, the other home planet) which is famous for its wild, beautiful fields and rugged mountains. It's not far from Ra'tleihfi, the capital city.

Why is this site called Song of Airissuin? Do the fields sing?

Of course not. A "song" can also be an epic poem -- a storytelling form -- and these are the stories of the ship Airissuin and her crew.
