They all gaze skyward, as the four gleaming stardestroyers scream low overhead
in an impressive barrel-roll formation. As the sound of the spacecraft
resonates throughout the glass canyon of the Plaza, the group of dignitaries
return their attention to the parade of Imperial shock troops, and giant air
tanks (which ride magically two to three feet above the ground).
The Plaza of the Daders is filled with a hundred rows of troops as the last
brigade marches into position. The sound of a thousand men snapping to
attention is followed by a strange silence. A light wind blows the great red
banner of the Empire, creating a subtle flapping sound. The emperor's
amplified voice startles many of the troops as it cuts through the quiet.
EMPEROR:
Upon this battle depends the survival of the Galactic Empire. Upon this
battle depends the life and long continuity of our civilization. Not since
the great Jedi Rebellion has our destiny been placed in such a balance. This
is to be the most magnificent campaign of all! You have never been called
without doing something to be remembered, something notable and striking. The
conquering of the Aquilaean System, the last of the independent Systems, and
the last refuge of the outlawed, vile sect of the Jedi, will have such
important and lasting consequences, that I can't but consider it as an epoch
in history.
To the rear of the Plaza, watching the spectacle over the shoulder of a
curious bureaucrat, stands Clieg Whitsun, a tall, blond young man about twenty
years old. He seems interested in what the emperor has to say, but keeps
looking around nervously as if someone were after him. His arm rests across
his head, as he carefully but coolly adjusts a glowing blue ring on his index
finger. The emperor nears the end of his speech.
Crispin Hoedaack has moved up to stand next to the sinister monarch.
The troops shout an Imperial salute in response to a particularly partisan
statement.
EMPEROR (con't)
...I have personally asked the Aquilaeans to accept this Treaty of Alliance.
During the long period of negotiation, they have only decided to be undecided.
We will barter no longer. Governor Hoedaack has been appointed the First Lord
of the Aquilaean System and Surrounding Territories. This is the last
frontier and the final stone in the great wall of the Galactic Empire.
The troops cheer, ad the emperor escorts Hoedaack inside. Whitsun moves
quickly away from the Plaza, passing through several check stations, where he
is forced to show his identification.
