Reports are coming in and spreading across all communication frequencies, that the official request for a ceasefire has just been received from the Ascendancy’s government in Csaplar, on Csilla. The request states their wish to negotiate terms to ending the War and respectfully ask for a ceasefire, putting an end to what has been a rigorous assault on the lower Chiss Space.

There have been reports of rejoicing on both sides as orders came in for the military to cease all operations and retreat back to their respective military holding. With this, it appears that the seemingly endless and costly War is now coming to it’s inevitable end – and not a moment too soon for all the men and women caught up in these battles.

Sources say that, upon the arrest and capture of the Ascendancy Commander in Chief, the long sought after Rinne’selen’omare was found on the surface of Copero. Additionally, the effects gained by the substantial loss to the Ascendancy fleet in the Southern Territories, and Southern Chiss Space, placed tremendous pressure onto the ruling houses of the Ascendancy hierarchy. However, after the fall of Rhigar due to the joint efforts of the Galactic Alliance and the Jedi Order branch on Coruscant, the decision was made to request a ceasefire and negotiate the terms to ending the War.

Acting Chief-of-State, Admiral Wilkinson, was quick to release the following statement.

“A few days ago, I asked a tremendous amount from all the men and women within our Military but also from across all departments aiding our efforts in the final stages of this War. We have suffered great losses and we have had to endure a greater pain, as the War continued to escalate in severity and intensity. However, I can confirm that today the Ascendancy ruling body has sent contact which requests a ceasefire to end the War and a meeting to negotiate terms. Intelligence suggests this is a legitimate request and we have taken the decision to accept it.

I ask for a little more time of you all now, but I assure you that we will act quickly and decisively to ensure the War is finished and that no further conflict shall continue.

Soon… we will be going home.”

Jedi strike teams have uncovered Chiss-run prisoner-of-war camps on the Ascendancy world of Sarvchi, after a devastating attack on Ascendancy military operations in the system. Sarvchi, the ancestral home of one of the Chiss ruling families, has been the focus of ongoing military operations in the past cycle. The ground operation, carried out by former members of the Ossus, Ilum and Dantooine branches of the Jedi Order, was intended to drive out the last remaining Chiss military assets but has instead discovered captured Alliance and Commonwealth personnel in high-security labour camps in the planet’s southern region. Reports suggest the camps have been in place for some time – GHN has learned that a number of inmates have been there since before the surrender of the Commonwealth, while eyewitness accounts imply that the camps themselves appear to be purpose-built facilities that predate the current conflict. A Coalition spokesperson has emphasised that all prisoners appear to be in good health, despite the nature of their detention, and will be returned to their homes soon.

A Chiss military academy on Rhigar has been destroyed by a joint Alliance/Jedi military operation, a Coalition spokesperson has announced. The attack, which officially ended at 0430GST on 290.21, is believed to be one of the more costly individual Alliance offensives of the past few years, with an estimated 10,000 Coalition casualties. Acting Chief-of-State Admiral Wilkinson, already facing strong pressure for her risky offensive strategies, defended the assault, stating that “the lives lost are not lost in vain” and has promised to continue military action in the region.

Rhigar, located deep within traditional Ascendancy borders in the Unknown Regions, is believed to be a key stronghold for the Chiss military. With the Rata Nebula and Sarvachi under Coalition control, Ascendancy space is effectively cut in two. Only the worlds of Yashuvhu and Mobus protect the Chiss homeworld of Csilla to the north, while Crustai and Pesfavri remain the critical locations in the southern Ascendancy. It remains unknown how the Chiss military will respond to this new development, or how Admiral Wilkinson and the military will contain the enemy forces on either side of the captured worlds. As always, GHN will have the latest details as they appear.

Breaking News!

Reports of an assault on yet another Jedi Enclave by Mandalorian forces have abruptly ended after, what is being speculated, is the death of the Mandalore.

No detail is available at this time but rumours spreading are saying that he was bested by the Jedi during the assault and killed. Also, the retreat of the Mandalorians from the plantery system has suggested the newly vacant position of Mandalore, has already been assumed by another. There is no word on the standing of the Mandalorians after these transgressions but we have reason to believe that the Mandalorians, will now drop out from the War altogether.

We will endeavour to update you as more detail becomes available to us.

Breaking news from the Galactic Alliance campaign!

Bakura has fall from the control of the Ascendancy as the Alliance reclaims another piece of territory in their attempts to push the Chiss Fleet back into it’s own space, inflicting even more casualties in this already blooded war.

Reports confirm that with the assistance of the Jedi Order, front line commanders along with the military forces of the alliance led an assault on multiple points over Bakura in a task which was set to isolate the present forces of the Ascendancy and over run them on all locations effectively reliqueshing it from their control. The Alliance has deemed the assistance of the Jedi Order as invaluable, claiming that without their help this victory may never have been possible and Temporary Chief of State Admiral Wilkinson had this to say;

“I would like to extend a personal thanks to the Jedi who fought on the front lines today, their bravery and valor will be remembered endlessly by everyone affected in the war as will all the lives of the brave men and women who died today fighting for the freedom from the tyranny of the stern cold ruling of the Ascendancy…”

As the celebrations erupt for tonight, they may short lived as the Alliance will now face a battle to hold this new additional territory to ensure that the Ascendancy doesn’t enter back into the Southern Space.
