    The Emperor is a Sick Man

    Arguably the most powerful person in the galaxy, Emperor Hengist Duval, is sick.

    He has ruled the Empire now for 67 years since his coronation in 3233 following the death of his father, Hesketh Duval.

    Emperor Hengist is only 118, born only a week before the death of his grandfather, Hender Saik Duval. Some say Hender’s spirit had already transferred to Hengist at that time.

    The Duval Imperial line has been unbroken for almost a thousand years. There have been power struggles in the past, but the usurpers have been successfully dealt with behind closed doors.

    This time is different.

    Hengist has been not involved himself in politics for a long time, relying on his Chancellor, Senator Blaine and has taken a laissez faire attitude towards a handful of increasingly powerful and ambitious Senators whilst Harold, the current heir, quickly made a name for himself as a feckless Playboy.

    The warlike Senator Denton Patreus, last seen trying to destabilise the Eranin system during the conflict surrounding its 30th Anniversary of Independence from the Federation, continues his manipulative power-broking in the galaxy at large.

    The preposterously rich Senator Zemina Torval is using her slaver corporation supporters and personal fleet of Majestic-class Interdictors to suppress revolts and to further her ambitions.

    Commentators expect others to show their hand, too.

    Much like in Imperial Rome on ancient Earth, Senators determine the tax rates of their supporters and both Patreus and Torval have become hugely popular back home as they have each used their huge wealth to lower taxation to zero.

    There is a real prospect of the next Emperor not being a Duval. And the bitter fight for succession is about to spill out into the open.

    Meanwhile, the Federation and Alliance of Independent Systems are watching with keen interest....

    Slave Rebellion Crushed

    In a statement from one of Senator Torval’s closest advisors the Senator declared that the rebellion in the Sorbago system had been crushed. She praised her forces and the allied pilots who aided in suppressing the rebellion.

    “The institution of Imperial slavery in the Sorbago system has been restored. Those that have broken tradition will be punished according to Imperial law. Our focus now is on restoring production and additional manpower from Mastopolos Mining will be transferred into the system to assist in the rebuilding process.”

    She also promised that the situation in the system would return to normal quickly, although local market prices haven’t yet returned to their pre-rebellion levels.

    Federal Shadow President Demands Conscription

    In the traditional speeches that mark the re-opening of Congress after the holiday, Congressman and Shadow President Zachary Hudson has outlined his views for the coming year.

    In a long speech highly critical of his opponent President Halsey, the only new element was his criticism of Federal youth,

    “We need to get the unemployed lazy youth of our core systems off their backsides. They need to get off their sims, and in to the real world to do something useful. We need to counter the Imperial threat. Let’s get them into the Marines and the Navy. Let’s spend our tax credits on protection, not sloth. The Navy never did me any harm.”
