HOLIDAY IN INAT

Source: Eternal Empire Command
Classification: Public Release
Authorization: The Eternal Throne

INAT SYSTEM — Are you tired of the same old vacation spots? Tired of the overcrowded beaches of the Core Worlds? Tired of the high prices on the corporate-run resorts? The Eternal Empire has the perfect getaway for you. Inat Major is now open for business. Book early. Demand is expected to be high.

The Horizon Guard, the Eternal Empire's elite unit answering only to the Eternal Throne, has secured a deep cover operation in the Krath Empire-controlled Inat system. They have seized control of Inat Major. Construction of the first phase of Inat's new resort facilities has begun. Amenities include state-of-the-art defensive emplacements, fully automated garrison units, and breathtaking views of the battlefield. The local wildlife has been pacified. The previous residents have been relocated.

The architect of this operation is Horizon Guard Vee Null, a veteran of the Shadow Wars and one of the Empire's most skilled tactical minds. When asked about the operation, Vee Null offered a characteristically sharp response: "We're opening up a few time shares for anyone looking to get away from the Hydian Expanse's management. Prime real estate. Great views. Limited availability. Yes, so festive, so fun. Best fun I've had in a while. I don't know why more people don't have fun like this. And that Bork guy, nice guy, real good guy, he's fun too. Why aren't more people fun?"

The Horizon Guard are Defilers who served with Zann and the Son-Tuul Pride during the Shadow Wars. They fought in the darkest battles of the Pride's rise. They were there when the chains were broken. Now they serve with the Eternal Empire during the Eternal Wars. Their loyalty has never wavered. Their skill has never diminished. They are the dagger that strikes when the Empire needs it most.

The system is not intended for a permanent control occupation. The operation serves a different purpose: to establish multiple Star Fortresses around Inat Major and on its surface. The Star Fortress program is designed to build strongholds over conquered worlds. These strongholds allow the Eternal Legions to project power within enemy territory. The planet has been fortified and prepared for future battles. Work on the fortresses continues around the clock. When the fortresses are operational, Imperial forces will withdraw in a few days, leaving behind bastions that can strike deep into hostile space.

One of the cities on Inat Major will be converted into a prison complex. Labor camps are being constructed to house criminals and enemies of the Eternal Empire. The planet offers the perfect location for such a facility. It will be well defended by the Star Fortresses and remote enough to ensure no one escapes. The Eternal Empire needs a place to hold its prisoners away from its core dominion, and what better place than Krath Empire territory? Inat Major provides that solution.

While this operation is ongoing, other Legions are securing more Star Fortresses within Hydian Expanse and Restored Empire sector asteroid fields. These fortresses will serve as forward bases for future attacks and raids. The Hydian Expanse and their allies complain about the Eternal Empire's presence in Morobe, but the Empire has already multiplied its outposts across their territory. Every complaint is answered with another fortress. Every protest is met with another forward base. The Empire is expanding its real estate portfolio. The Hydian Expanse is providing the locations.

The Hydian Expanse might not appreciate the new tourism initiative, but the Empire is confident the market will respond favorably. Vacationers looking for an exclusive, off-the-grid experience will find Inat Major offers everything they could want. The views of the Star Fortresses alone are worth the trip. The sound of automated droid legions marching in formation is a unique ambiance found nowhere else in the galaxy.

This operation is a direct response to the hostility of the Hydian Expanse. They rejected peace with the Eternal Empire and escalated the war. An Eternal Empire official said: "They brought this on themselves. We urge the Hydian Expanse to return to the negotiations table and avoid further escalation." This operation also serves as a training drill with real repercussions, preparing Imperial forces for upcoming build wars. The Horizon Guard and supporting Legions are gaining valuable experience in rapid fortification and defensive construction under combat conditions.

The official also denounced the growing influence of terrorist rebel organizations. The citizens of the Hydian Expanse should know that while the rebels destroy their ships on Derra and Serroco, on the back end they pressure Hydian leaders to fight their battles for them.

This operation showcases how the Horizon Guard and the Eternal Legions operate independently for sensitive ops and together for greater wars. This structure ensures the enemy cannot gain information from within for important operations, as they did before. The Horizon Guard excels at deep infiltration and targeted strikes. The Legions provide overwhelming force when required. Together, they form a system that is adaptable and resilient.

As the Legions rise and the war reaches the heart of the Hydian Expanse, the Eternal Empire has proven its reach. They can enforce power on systems far beyond their dominion. The Star Fortresses in and around Inat will serve as launching points for future campaigns. No place in the galaxy is safe from the battles to come.

The Empire extends its hand to those who seek peace. It raises its fists to those who choose war. The galaxy will decide which it deserves.

This is the Eternal Frequency. Stay tuned.

Our chains are broken. Our fire is eternal.
