Setting
“Now aware of the traitor host mustering on Deva and stunned from the losses sustained during the failed
assassination attempt. Black Shield Praetor, Ophaniel, quickly attempts to pivot the situation to his advantage.
Several moons orbit the systems gas giant Althaea. The moons providing raw materials, shipyards, and armouries.
He may have failed to kill Alpharius, he may have lost a good portion of his force on Deva. But he can still hurt these
traitors and reduce the strength they will leave the Aurelia system with.
The strikes must be fast, as the traitors’ fleet is closing in on them. Ophaniel splits the fleet into a multi-pronged
attack. Spread thin, they will attack the moons simultaneously.”
