Breaking News at 3:44 The deserter Princess Feferi Peixes has founded a terrorist organization. They are an obvious threat to the peace of the Empire, threatening to allow the Vast Glub to be sung. More information to be released as it comes.

Update at 5:16 A few prominent younger trolls have either been abducted or defected to the rebellion. They boarded the SAIGE-40 at approximately 13:12. They managed to slaughter 5 trolls while they slept before the alarm went off. As they tried to flee, the subjugglator division managed to take 15 of the rebels. The only one captured alive quickly swallowed some type of poison.

Update at 5:55 The Panashkar of SAIGE-40 released a statement: "Upon reviewing the footage of the attack, it seems as if they had help from the inside; two trolls have been arrested and taken in for further questioning. From what we can tell there were three targets of the attack: the Empress, who is on SAIGE-40 reviewing fleet plans; her Head Peacekeeper; and his protege.

When the alarm sounded, the High General set to make sure the Empress was safe from any threat. His ward set off to stem the threat. He took down two of the trolls attempting to get to the Empress, and he was working towards finding where they had hidden. Right now he is missing."

Update at 7:05 The Condescension has made a statement to the whole of the Empire:

"I hope all of you will forgive me for my absence in not making a statement; however, this attack has shaken me to my core. We, as an Empire, have always strived to keep every troll safe. I know that isn't always possible. This attack has only reaffirmed the point my General and I have been speaking about since my arrival here.

This attack has hit very close to my heart. This involves discussion of something I have avoided for sweeps for various reasons. This situation warrants me to allow you all to have a private look into my life. The General and myself are moirails. He is presently very distraught, as his protege has been taken. But that young troll was not simply a ward or in training under the general. He was also his progeny. We suspect and fear for the worst. I ask if any troll notices anything suspicious of your blockmate, or anything strange occurring on your ship, to report it immediately.

They will be attempting to take trolls' lives to frighten us. To weaken us. We did receive one message from them, asking me to abdicate my throne via suicide. This type of cowardice should sum up the motivations of this group. If my cabinet wishes to assist in my death, they can keep their positions; if not, they will be executed as well.

This fight will not be simple, as it appears they have sympathizers all over the empire. Promising power to those that assist, and slavery or death to all those who oppose and even those who remain neutral. I will be the first to say that the Empire has problems; however, asking a troll to kill themselves because you are too weak to do so yourself is not what we need for progress in our hold on the reaches of space.

I understand that the idea of revolution might seem romantic. I would ask you to keep in mind that they are ready and willing to drag innocent trolls to their deaths while they sleep. They are willing to enslave any troll who questions their methods, they are ready to ruin our hold on our universe with weak and feeble ideas, inviting even more pain and suffering from stronger opponents out in the galaxy.

I fear for every troll out there. Their reach doesn't matter to caste, they will strike down or torture any troll who opposes them. I ask that any troll with information about this group step forward so there need not be any more needless deaths based on the Princess's timid nature. I will be opening my wealth, my assets, and privilege to every Captain of the ships, and any valid information brought forward will be rewarded handsomely. Together we will stand for true ideals, for our superiority over our domain, and we will not be knocked down because one girl didn't want to face me in open combat. Thank you all."

Update at 12:35 Another attack happened last night on the Caltorinii Colony, in an attempt to reduce the flow of supplies. No contact can be made with the land, and security photographs do not bode well. At this time there is not a lot of information available, as updates arrive we will keep you posted.

Update at 3:57 A recon team was sent to Caltorinii and the amount of devastation is bound to reverberate through the empire. The lives of hundreds of colonists and amberblooded trolls have been lost. The Caltorinii colony is the main supplier of foodstuffs, and all the stores have been destroyed or poisoned. The livestock was slaughtered and the meat destroyed. There is not yet an official count for the deaths, though the amount of destruction of supplies might bring a food shortage to the Empire.

A/N: SAIGE-40 is the technical name for the Subjugglator ship. (The name of it is "Tarlou-Na", which is in the sacred language of the Subjugglators and not Alternian.)

The actual planet is Caltoran, however "-(r)inii" was added by the Alternian empire to show it was a colony under them. "-(r)inii" is a diminutive, usually used in making pet names or cutie-grub names of trolls.
