JEDI HoloNet

285.19 // Life Day is Near!

The trees are alive with the sound of music, laughter, and hearty talk amongst the wookiees here in the village of Kepitenochan on Kashyyyk. For the past several days, the Wookiees have been making preparations for their annual Life Day celebrations. It has been a hard year for the Galaxy and I am sad to say that many of its citizens will not be able to participate in Life Day this year. Those that do, however, can expect a merry time and will indubitably have many good times this holiday.

Reports have come in that several Galactic Alliance personnel have been spotted amongst the trees as well. Maybe they are there to help? Protection? Who knows? It warms my heart to know that there are still some people willing to help out and participate in this sacred celebration. In the past, it has been known that the occasional Jedi participates with the Wookiees, but no reports of their presence have been given.

Stayed tuned into GHN for updates on the Life Day celebrations! Until next time.

Next cycle, the Coalition Military is expected to launch its latest recruitment initiative, aimed at capitalising on the passing of Senate Measure 8062297C two years ago.  Enlistment figures among 16 and 17-year olds has tailed off in recent months, and with the war showing no signs of reaching a conclusion, military officials are keen to keep a steady supply of reinforcements.

GHN was granted exclusive access to the materials soon to be hitting holo-mags and billboards across Allied space and is proud to be the first to reveal some of the highlights of this year’s campaign.

The speculation regarding the Commonwealths surrender has been non stop since it was announced by Prime Minister Selene that they were prepared to negotiate with the Ascendancy to bring about an end to their war. However, during this period the focus has shifted over to the Galactic Alliance as Chief of State Caden Aquitenne portrayed a strong notion to continue the war against the Ascendancy through to its conclusion, boldly stating, that it would be with the defeat of the Ascendancy.

Recently we launched a survey to gather the public opinion on the recent developments with the war, today we have released but only a few of the thousands of comments we received.

284.26 // Mystery Man Outside Mystery Theatre

A routine showing of Flutres des Tyluun at the Monadurk Theatre in the Western Sector was downplayed by the appearance of a vigilante who disrupted a robbery at knifepoint not far from the entrance shortly after the production ended. A young Twi’lek couple was assaulted by a group of Humans working independently out of the South Sector.

Shoda Koo, a nineteen year old student at the Academy of Sciences says that after she and her boyfriend exited the theatre at around 1900 GST that a single man held them up at knifepoint, prompting the approach of two nearby men who were similarly armed, demanding their credits. “They mistook me for somebody else, I think,” Shoda said in reference to the fact that the men seemed to imply that it wasn’t the first time that they had met.

Her boyfriend, Mowara Len, says that the two were escorted into an alleyway where they believed they would be sold into slavery, despite their off-skin color, an irregularity that became more popular given the economic hardships falling on the Galaxy. With little choice, Mowara Len and Shoda Koo were led not far away from the theatre before an anonymous human intervened.

“He seemed to be a spacer or something, he was wearing flight gear,” Mowara said in a description. “He was average height but had darker skin, something you don’t see here on Alzoc III.” According to the two, the man gained the attention of the attackers and fought them all at once.

“I think he was stabbed,” Shoda said, “but by the time he had dealt with the three men, he took off before we could even thank him.” Mowara contacted local security forces shortly afterward who remarked that they had no potential identity of the man. Security footage from the local camera feeds indicates that the vigilante attended the same show as the couple and arrived with a young Twi’lek himself.

His motives and identity remain unknown. The possibility that he is an agent of Alliance Special Operations is being considered. Alzoc III Head of Security, Ikto Lón, refused to comment. The three men are being held at Security Station Delta West.
