Merchant City

*Merchant City was a trading outpost established by the South Corulag Trading Company by request from Sigilius Landeris in order to promote planetary trading. Here merchants from all across the Galaxy were welcome to conduct business and build trading relations. The city also served as local HQ for the South Corulag Trading Company and the Echani Republic.*

*As Merchant City opens its gate for the first time a mass of people enter is, both belonging to the native Adari species and many other. The people have immigrated from the surrounding areas and off-planet hoping to gain wealth by settling in the new city. Everyone entering the city is granted Echani citizenship with all its privileges. A message is broadcasted over the local HoloNet and given to all whom become citizens:*

:: Welcome citizens of Merchant City! We want you to know that you are all most appreciated. We, your new governor and bringer of good tidings want you to know that on this day we mark a transition, a transition from commonness to greatness, a transition from savage rule to Echani Rule. You are not only simple citizens of Merchant City, you are also privileged to call yourself citizens of the Echani Republic, governed by our great High Protector Lord Umbra, and all thought of as Echani in the eyes of the republic, no matter what species you belong to. In order to ensure the security and continuing stability, Lord Umbra has decided the Echani Imperial Law will be enforced, for a safe and secure society. By bringing the entire empire under one law the corruption that plagued us before will never rise again. Regional governors will control planets in the empire while a strong and growing military will ensure the rule of law.
Some may call our ideals and values ancient and outdated. Let them talk I say. We will defend our ideals by force of arms. We will give no ground to our enemies and we will stand together against attacks, both internal and external. Let the enemies of the republic be warned: Those who challenge echani resolve will be crushed. We will fight them on planets, moons and in space.
This Merchant City is just the beginning. The ammount of Merchant Cities governed by the Echani Republic will grow as more planets feel the call, from the Rim to the wilds of unknown space.
We have been tested, but we have emerged stronger. We moved forward as one people, the privileged citizens of the Echani Republic. We will prevail. Ten thousand years of greatness begins today.

May your shields never fail and may the Echani Republic prevail! ::

*A Recruitment Office is then set up near the Main Gate. After a few hours a couple of pilots and riflemen are recruited. The riflemen are given the Storm Projectile rifles and the pilots the Storm Series fighter.*

*The loss of Corulag, the defeat at the battle of Yoggoy and Aaris III and the failure in freeing the Corulagi people under the boot of the PMC has taken its toll on the Echani Republic. The expansion of the city was going in a paste slower than expected and no other city had yet been established on another planet. The taxation of this city was therefore even more important than before. A taxation of its citizens was therefore made. The amount of 10,000,000 cr. are collected and placed on the S.C.T.C. bank account.*

*A coded signal is sent from the Grand Assembly on Abbaji to Merchant City. The signal is received by the legion stationed there and a few minutes a state of "Code: Orange A" is instated in the city. All key positions are enforced, including the Spaceport, the Main Gate, the Power Plant and the Shield Generator. All is done without alarming the public.*

=Neo-Firedancer Gregg=
"Alright, this should be enough to keep the cult out."

=Neo-Firedancer Bob=
"Are you sure?"

=Neo-Firedancer Gregg=
"Well, I hope so."

*A squad of Neo-Firedancers then roam the streets, looking for any sign of trouble as well as asking their underground informants to keep an eye or two open for any sign of hostilities.*

*As the tention between the cult and the Echani Coalition settles the "Code: Orange A" is removed and everything goes back to normal. However, the threat is still out there and the soldiers of the Echani Coalition are encouraged to be vigilant.*

Sun Apr 25, 2010 8:36 pm by Valstrol Horica

*A transmission is sent planetwide across all frequencies*

:: People of Adari! The Cult has been absorbed and become a part of the Horica Sovereign Empire! From this day forth, all shall be in the hands of the Emperor Horica I who shall give protection to the whole Empire for generations to come! Long Live the Emperor!! ::

*The few squadrons stationed in the city reacts to the transmission once more raising the alert level to a Code: Orange A. This is all according to the standard procedures. Allthough the somewhat hostile tone of the transmission the population of Merchant City remains calm. A transmission is then sent accross Merchant City, originating from the Local S.C.T.C. Headquarters.*

=Grand General Ahsoka=
:: Citizens of the Echani Coalition and Merchant City, do not fear. Your great leader, High Protector Lord Umbra of the Echani Coalition is currently undertaking diplomatic negotiations with the Horica Sovereign Empire. More information shall be yours as this progress. Thank you and may your shields never fail. ::

*Another HSE transmission echoes through Merchant City. The HoloNews shows a tall and dark, but pale looking man. His face flawless and youthful...his eyes golden. The man is extremely tall, close to seven feet in height. He is lean and slender...his clothing is slick black armor beneath a set of Sith robes. He begins to speak.*

:: After speaking with your honorable and dutiful Lord Protector, Lord Umbra...an accord has been struck between our sovereignties. For those within this city that do not know me...I am Lord Valstrol Horica, Dark Lord of the Sith and Emperor of the Horica Sovereign Empire. The Empire shall respect and recognize the Echani Coalition's rule over Merchant City, in exchange for an agreement that both the HSE and the Coalition shall help protect this world. Within two days, a fleet shall enter orbit and begin to unload the fresh regiments of the new Adari Defense Force to keep all outlying areas secure, as per orders from Horica High Command. Good day to you, citizens of Merchant City. ::

*Lord Umbra entered the city departing from the area of the Spaceport. It seemed the population of Merchant City had remained steady at 10 million, however the economy seemed to had hit rock bottom. The South Corulag Trading Company, the main trading force in the city as well as the only state controlled business of the Echani Coalition, had given way to a multitude of alien businesses and commodities to take a hold on the city in their absence. Lord Umbra were sure to remedy this and bring order and culture back to the city, no matter the cost. As he moved among the dense crowed of the city he could see, and smell, a multitude of species from all over the galaxy and it made him sick. The Echani Coalition followed a strict caste system given by Vahl, their goddess, dividing the different species of the Galaxy into categories. And Lord Umbra would not allow any of the lower castes to infect his beloved city. He entered the nearest Security station, ordering the officer on duty to hook him into the Citywide comm-system.*

:: Citizens of Merchant City and the Echani Coalition, this is Hight Protector Lord Umbra demanding your full attention. As you all know Abbaji has been destroyed beyond any chance of saving. The core of the Echani Coalition will therefore relocate here until a new planet has been found where we once more can reign supreme. The times to come will be hard on us all. We must turn to our divine goddess Vahl and trust in her wisdom and guidance. Therefore we have decided to not only bring you the laws stated in the Grand Charter of the Echani Coalition but also our most holy law stated in the Songs of Vahl. This means that all Feetborn species are not allowed to conduct any form of business and will be forced into slavery in service of the coalition. The Armborn species will however be allowed to continue as they were and of course, all Voidborn will be killed.This will all come in effect as of right now. You will have one hour to comply or leave the city. The Echani must prevail, it is our divine duty. May your shields protect you and may Vahl burn your enemies! ::

*Lord Umbra stood on top of one of the many lookout towers surrounding the city. From his elevated view the buzzing crowd bellow him looked like insects. Come to think about it, many of them were not worth more than insects, at least this was true for the thousands of Voidborn dwelling in the city. Voidborn, those races that the Echani were sworn to extinct as commanded by their Goddess Vahl, had until this day been allowed to live in the city. But no more, this was their last day in this world.*

=Lord Umbra=
Master General, initiate the purge.

=Master General=
As you wish, High Protector.

*Armed security forces swarmed the city, weapons loaded and raised. The sound of screaming, yelling and gun fire mixed and became one massive sound of death and destruction. Lord Umbra smiled as he stood watching the carnage from his tower. He did not enjoy the massacre or the pain and suffering he was causing, he was no monster. The reason he smiled was because this was the will of Vahl, and pleasing his Darkside Goddess made him happy.*

*In a ally, a Security Officer found a Mandalorian woman clasping tightly around her infant in terror. As the officer came closer she raised one hand towards him, a futile attempt to shield herself and her child.*

=Mandalorian Woman=
Please, do not do this! We have done nothing wrong!

=Security Officer=
You are alive, that is wrong enough!

*The Security Officer pointed his gun at the child and fired a single shot.*

=Mandalorian Woman=
My baby, my baby! You animal! What have you done!

=Security Officer=
Do not worry, you will join it soon enough!

*The Security Officer then moved the aim of the gun from the dead child towards the torso of the woman. He smiled and fired two shots into her as she fell to the ground. A few gurgling breaths could be heard then nothing.The woman and the child were dead.*

*After a few hours all species Voidborn were killed, laying dead on the streets. The total body count was 85,000. The Feetborn were turned into slavery and the Armborn reduced of their rights. All according to the will of Vahl. The bodies were piled into one pile of gore before it was set alight. The fire burned long into the night and all the next day.*
