Peaceful civilian protests ocurred throughout the United Outer Colonies today in response to the attack on Halna, sending a message of malcontent with the actions led by the Mistress-Taisho and supported by the Empress. They were joined by a small number of Star Army Enlisted, since hastily recalled to duty, but the response from the 5th XF's Command as well as the UOC government has been neutral at this time. "While I support our Empress, I feel that if there was a terrorist threat, there was a better way to avoid it," says Yuuki Naka, NH-29, age 3.

The Nepleslian news started, flashing lights, heavy metal. It cut quickly to the blonde newscaster so familiar to most Nepleslians. "Earlier today, word came into our offices of a Yamataian military action on the world of Halna. Although details on the cause of the operation are currently hazy, Star Army forces, without a doubt, murdered at least several hundred thousand Freespacer civilians in the operation, as well as many more non-'Spacers in at least one orbital bombardment on a population center."

Terrorist Threat Purged Halna System - Forces of the First Expeditionary Fleet launched a surprise attack on hostile terrorist faction known as the Freespacers, who were hiding just outside Yamataian space. The Freespacers had recently begun to invade parts of Halna, an unaffiliated system inhabited primarily by illegals, in preparation to attack the civilian infrastructure of Yamatai. The attack was a resounding success, with the military performing a massive door to door search and rounding up all the Freespacer militants. Causalities other than Freespacers were minimal, despite Freespacer terrorists' attempts at setting off nuclear devices in civilian cities. The Freespacers were recently discovered to be hostile when they...

A ID-SOL appears on the screen and walks up, in a totally barren white room. He waves, speaking in a light tone which seems weird for his size. "Hello. The system is back on line. The device has not been modified." The picture would suddenly chance to that of... Well, the universe, suddenly zooming in and about, eyeing planets, moon, and so on. All to the sound of rock and roll in the back ground, and then... a Flute... That had a techno feel to it.
