Tandell System, INB - The Imperial Navy and the Dolomar Sector Government has recently struck a blow against illegal construction and tax evasion in the Mid Rim under the guidance of both the New Republic and Falleen Federation Governments, with additional support from Rogue Squadron, as they conducted 'Operation Eternal Fields'. Using Interdictor Star Cruisers, the Imperial navy has blockaded the system and is currently conducting searches of vessels in the area to ensure the safety of all Imperial citizens in the system and to ensure order can be restored to a system poisoned by the slippery words and cruel actions of rebel forces.

The Imperial Ball is a long-standing tradition that brings Imperials together for networking opportunities where officers meet face-to-face with their subordinates in a relaxed atmosphere. Guests will be introduced by an Imperial Guard and greeted by members representing the Empire in the formal reception line. This tradition ensures that each guest is welcomed and directed to the host, Commander Tao of the Imperial Navy, who will indicate where the guests shall be seated. There will be a ceremonial Parading of the Colors followed by dignitary speeches. Musical entertainment will be done by the esteemed Lady Rocher of Coruscant. After the dinner, traditional military toasts will be given to honor military personnel, leaders and guests. Finally, the long awaited formal dance will be held. Following her success with the Imperial Fleet Day, there has been great anticipation for the Imperial Ball amongst the Empire with many expecting the event to be the most successful to date.
Months before Operation Eternal Fields commenced, Imperial Intelligence, working with the Imperial Ministry of Finance, began noticing that the tax income from the Tandell system had ceased and that the required diplomatic packets sent each month to the sector's Moff, Tanez Kalrade, had become heavily delayed. Ever vigilant against rebel activity in the new Imperial sector, an Imperial Taskforce was sent to the system to locate the source of the disturbances. The Taskforce returned to the Dolomar Sector Government and reported how a fleet of motley cargo ships belonging to the New Republic and the Falleen Federation had begun illegal construction in the system and that the new self-proclaimed 'governments' had taken measures to encourage smuggling, illegal gambling, and other activities not condoned by Imperial Law.

As the Imperial Ball draws closer, the Imperial Palace has became a hive of activity as the organizing team began preparing the grounds for the festivities that would come with the annual occasion. Excitement has been high in the past few days as guests from across the Galaxy arrive in preparation for the opening ceremony. Even the Imperial Military, stationed on Coruscant since the conclusion of the Clone Wars and assisting in the organization of the Ball, have been getting into the spirit of the occasion with excitement and great anticipation filling the hearts of the seasoned veterans. One officer stated so succinctly "I've been waiting to get my dance on!"

The Dolomar Sector Government leapt immediately into action, working closely with the Imperial Navy to plan an operation that would freeze all of the detestable activity occurring in Tandell. In short order, a plan had been cooked up and the 1st Imperial Fleet, under the command of Captain Kato Forn, scrambled into action, ready to lead the task force on the order-restoration mission.

Early on the morning of Year 11 Day 13 a fleet consisting of Interdictor Star Cruisers and Imperial-Class Star Destroyers emerged from Hyperspace in the Tandell system. Within mere hours the entire system had been covered in artificial gravity fields, disallowing traffic to enter or exit the system unless authorized by Imperial law. The Imperial fleet found the system looking just as Imperial Intelligence had reported - full of rebels, smugglers and illegalities.  
 
<br>
 
<br>
 
As the crews of the Interdictor cruisers kept the system locked down, the Imperial-class Star Destroyers, their hangers full of fighters and boarding craft, began checking and logging all ships in the system against the Imperial Ship Identification Database (ISIDD). The massive database stores scans and information regarding more than 30 billion separate vessels in the known Galaxy. Any vessel not found in the database is immediately registered, searched by Imperial Boarding teams and the owner fined an amount specified by Imperial Law for failing to register properly.

<br>
 
It is a testament to the talented individuals that compose the Imperial Navy and the Empire that operations such as Eternal Fields can be conducted and accomplished to the highest standards possible. These high maintained standards allow the Navy to use the exclusivity and power of the Navy's Interdictor Star Cruiser Fleet to its maximum potential. By blocking their escape, Imperial forces are guaranteed the time they need to get any and all results they need; a true testament to the Commanders' strategic abilities. 
 
<br>
 
<br>
 
Even in the middle of an operation such as this, Captain Kato Forn was able to speak with an INB correspondent briefly regarding the operation - "This is the ultimate test for our Interdictor fleet and the results are no fraction less than our expectations. It adds a completely new dimension to warfare." When pressed about how long the fleet might stay in-system, the Captain simply chuckled with a slight smile - 'Classified.'

The Imperial News Bureau will continue to keep all loyal Imperial citizens up to date on the events occurring in this ongoing operation and system lockdown.

Imperial Ball Opens

Citizens of the Galactic Empire have been buzzing with anticipation with the opening of the annual Imperial Ball soon to begin. The Imperial Ball is a traditional military ball held yearly at the Imperial Palace with personnel from all Imperial divisions attending. The event is to occur on Year 11 Day 111. Commander Tao, organizer of the ball, consulted a mystic and it was found that the selected date would be an auspicious day that will bring great fortune to the Empire.

The Imperial Ball is a long-standing tradition that brings Imperials together for networking opportunities where officers meet face-to-face with their subordinates in a relaxed atmosphere. Guests will be introduced by an Imperial Guard and greeted by members representing the Empire in the formal reception line. This tradition ensures that each guest is welcomed and directed to the host, Commander Tao of the Imperial Navy, who will indicate where the guests shall be seated. There will be a ceremonial Parading of the Colors followed by dignitary speeches. Musical entertainment will be done by the esteemed Lady Rocher of Coruscant. After the dinner, traditional military toasts will be given to honor military personnel, leaders and guests. Finally, the long awaited formal dance will be held. Following her success with the Imperial Fleet Day, there has been great anticipation for the Imperial Ball amongst the Empire with many expecting the event to be the most successful to date.

As the Imperial Ball draws closer, the Imperial Palace has became a hive of activity as the organizing team began preparing the grounds for the festivities that would come with the annual occasion. Excitement has been high in the past few days as guests from across the Galaxy arrive in preparation for the opening ceremony. Even the Imperial Military, stationed on Coruscant since the conclusion of the Clone Wars and assisting in the organization of the Ball, have been getting into the spirit of the occasion with excitement and great anticipation filling the hearts of the seasoned veterans. One officer stated so succinctly "I've been waiting to get my dance on!"

The Imperial News Service has been granted special access to the Imperial Ball, where it has been found that Brigadier General L'Annan, Commanding Officer of the Imperial Army, will be performing a cultural dance at the Imperial Ball. She has chosen the Victory March which is an excerpt from the ballet The Seven Romances of Andante. The choice of dance exemplifies the overpowering might of the Empire. Brigadier General L'Annan graduated from the Crollian Academy of Dance and Music, receiving a qualification for Traditional Dance before enlisting into the Imperial Army.

With the entire Empire capturing the spirit of the Ball, many citizens within the Empire are expected to hold their own Imperial Ball parties. Once such example is The Sky Loft, a high profiled bar, hosting a pre-party with an Imperial theme. The Sky Loft is owned by Commander Tao and operated by Senior Workman Lilith Kaine. It is known across the Empire for its playful atmosphere and indulgent libations. Commander Tao has offered a one million-credit prize for the guest with the best toga. When asked about the toga party she commented, "It is an event that has the same spirit as the Imperial Ball but crazier!"
