The mine, located on the outskirts of the capital city, Charr, was being operated by a team of Human and alien miners when the collapse occurred. The exact cause of the incident is still unknown and an investigation is underway led by the Ministry of Interior’s Bureau for Mine Incidents. |

| − | Fleet Admiral Savk pauses for a moment, scanning the first few rows of seats. Evidently not finding what he was looking for, and with just the slightest trace of a frown, he glances down at his notes before resuming speaking.

| |
| − | The Admiral waits for just a moment as Captain Korin and Commander Kaine make their way up and salute the Admiral. Returning both of the salutes, the Admiral first turns to the Captain, who is looking particularly sharp today in his dress uniform.

| − | “We have just received word that the two other officers were to receive awards as well, but were unavoidably detained. First, Lieutenant Commander Mayas Lennorian was awarded the Navy Activity Medal. An Imperial who came to the Empire through the merger with the NIO, he has been an excellent example of the cooperation between the two former adversaries, meshing harmoniously into the structure of the Galactic Empire, as this award proves."

Though he was unable to attend in person, no doubt due to fulfilling the duties that won him this award in the first place, he enters into a very elite club alongside Imperials such as the now-deceased Admiral Calor Assam and current Admiral Goth. This reporter at least is looking forward to where Captain Forn’s career will go next.”
