With the recent mysterious disappearance of Merjan, many within the Jenquai elite are on edge. The Shaha'dem Explorers put on a brave face despite their leader's disapearance, while Ariad leaves the Antares 1 Station to pick up the slack with the missing leader. Even the Shinwa are under massive amounts of stress with not only having to deal with the loss of Grayfeather but, the task of keeping the Jenquai people as a whole safe from the growing number of V'rix pouring through. We have already seen what the V'rix are capable of once determined on a target. First Primus planet fell to the bugs and now one of the greatest allies of the Shinwa has fallen. One can only wonder what the immediate future holds for the Jenquai. And one can only wonder who is next on the V'rix hit list. The terran controled Witberg sector where the gate to Ardus lies? A complete take over of the Aragoth system where many reports have the V'rix searching for something in the ancient sector. There are many possible outcomes, but one thing is for sure in this uncertain time...only more bloodshed will come.This has been an editorial report by Ken'Shao Nami. Good Flight, Good Night.
