Despite early successes in the counterattack in former Commonwealth space, Alliance naval forces have been struggling to maintain the upper hand against Chiss military prowess.

Sources from inside Coalition High Command have indicated siege breaking efforts are being led by Ascendancy Admiral Bri’jien’nuruodo. Known for being the first Ascendancy Naval officer to be promoted to Admiral during the War of Attrition, Admiral Bri’jien’nuruodo has caused chaos throughout the Commonwealth sieges with his cunning and ingenious tactical prowess.

As the Coalition strives to liberate lands conquered by the Chiss invaders, the death toll is beginning to climb at a more exponential rate, leaving citizens across the galaxy questioning when enough is enough.

In the wake of former Chief of State Aquittene’s funeral, leaders in both Galactic Alliance military and government leaders have met to discuss the future of the war effort on the fronts of the former Commonwealth.

Admiral Wilkinson of Coalition High Command has confirmed to GHN correspondents that Alliance warships have crossed into space formerly occupied by the Commonwealth, now under the iron fist of the Ascendancy.

Already sieges have begun on the border worlds of Borosk, Morishim, and Serenno. The Chiss fleet, that once stood as an intimidating behemoth of force, has been crumbling to Alliance cannons in the daring counter-assault.

“With the large amount of space the Ascendancy has conquered, it has significantly expanded its borders.” commented Coalition strategy analyst, Col. Taleed Dremine. “With little cooperation from the locals and subversive efforts from within, it appears the Ascendancy’s armed forces may just be spread too thin.”

With relatively few skirmishes between the Ascendancy and the Alliances in recent months, the new offensive shows a drastic escalation in the war. Therefore, though the early stages of the Outer Rim sieges look promising, the Coalition has requested new volunteers as well as veterans to re-enlist. With the help and support of the public at large, we at GHN hope we are seeing the beginning of the end.

It was announced today that the well respected, former freedom fighter Count Kaylluss of the Six Houses of Serenno, had passed away this evening at the age of 83.

Count Kaylluss was known for his persistent campaign to fight against the oppression his people faced at the hands of the invading Ascendancy forces which had made its presence felt early into the war. During this period Count Kaylluss was present at many Commonwealth meetings as he lobbied for resources, support and assistance to gain freedom for his people. However, due to the increasing pressure being put on the Commonwealth at that time these attempts were made in vain.

Many attempts were made on the Counts life due to the political movements and other uninvestigated notions, but Count Kaylluss was always a resourceful man making alliances with many militia groups and even an understanding with the Jedi Order. During these points the location of Count Kayllus was unknown and unaccounted for, but as a true hero to his people Count Kayllus worked tirelessly for the people of Serenno. To honour this bold act, a small bronze bust will be placed on a parliament building to serve as a memory but many speculate that this will not be upheld once the Ascendancy takes notice.

Since the assassination of Chief of State Caden Aquitenne two cycles ago, many questions have hovered around the fall of our nation’s leader.

Aquitenne’s public address on Brentaal was staffed with high level security personnel, including two members of the Jedi Order. Some said at the time the security perimeter was “impenetrable.” However, a known Jedi assassin of Chiss descent was able to slip through the obstacles in place and get a clean strike at the Chief of State.

If security was so tight, how was this lone Jedi able to baffle security, and how were two other gunmen able to take up a perimeter around the stage on which Aquitenne spoke? Some have speculated, it was an inside job.

As the gap between rich and poor continuously expands in the galaxy, the unemployment rate has continued to rise as more and more communities are falling into poverty.

Tatooine has been no exception. Deep in Hutt space, Tatooine has never been short on scum and villainy. Wealth goes into the hands of the corrupt as the honest slave away for limited wages.

However, a particularly hard hit area on the planet has been the city of Mos Endos. Known for its pollution, slum-like quality of infrastructure and rough streets, Mos Endos has been referred to by many as the “kr*ff hole of Tatooine.”

Yet even amidst a dark and dreary time, a beacon of light can shine among the darkness of the masses. A generous donor, who requested to remain anonymous, has recently signed a deal with local contractor, Zechs Charr, to renovate the slums of Mos Endos.
