The WNN logo appears on the screen of Holonet viewers everywhere, and a repeating riff is played on a synthesizer in a style inordinately exciting for ten o'clock in the evening, fading to a quiet, dignified newsroom. "Hullo...I'm Anthon Trebojowski with Wildnet News. There's been a lot of interesting things going on in the galaxy recently - major money being made on shockball, an access issue for Eidola's News teams and even a political incident with the Falleen Federation. But in the wake of all this, one thing is moving its way into common interest and general conversation of many, and what else is that, but Wild Space?"

The announcer sits behind a desk made of purple plasteel, the letters 'W N' embossed in white on the front. "Wild Space...it's the stomping ground of serial holofilm adventurers everywhere, up to and including The Starkiller Kid...it's where you go to make a name for yourself, to adventure beyond the pale, where no one's ever been. But that's just the holos..."

A scene not unlike one of those movies replaces Trebojowski's newsroom - battleships raining fire from heaven onto a small city. Cloakshape fighters wheeling towards them, only to be annihilated. "Not all the scenes across Wild Space were this exciting, frankly...but it was one of many similar images captured by roving tech-savvy Holonet users and posted to various holo sharing sites - currently, it's anyone's guess what's going on. One thing is almost certain, the Krath Dynasty is moving into Wild Space - our source here is a HoloLeaks post within the last hour. The MC-80b Star Cruiser Mystiel Raleigh was spotted entering the Katorrs system. There are reports of a heavy buildup in that system, and possibly elsewhere. Military installations are seen all across the Zelavian Road, a branch of the Corellian Run entering Wild Space. What is their purpose?"

Anthon looks at the holocam seriously, gray hair parted neatly over blue eyes. He pauses dramatically - the purple decor evidently only aids an inner sense of flamboyant drama - then speaks again, when tension on a thousand Holonet receivers all across the Galaxy has built to the absolute breaking point. "Rumors speak of many different possibilities for their presence. Our first reactions are that, with the local corruption of piracy, the purpose could be thwarting this infestation that's been plaguing the region for some time. The Hyperspace Navigators Guild has released a notification earlier today to their members that a number of lanes in Wild Space are being patrolled and that there is a chance that their ships are inspected but the chances of a pirate raid has been greatly decreased which gives some indication as to what is happening in that area.

With the rumored installation of high numbers of barracks and the construction of Golan II space stations we have other feelings that military operations are a certainty and the appearance of the Mystiel Raleigh, a strong warship, only adds strength to this. Historically the area has been renown for producing well trained fighter pilots. Could the Krath be exploiting this?

But we must stress that it's all a matter of conjecture - we have received no official statements from the Grand Seneschal Lord Raleigh's office. The move could just be simply a build up of structures to strengthen their economy in that area but with the military structures who can say for certain. More information as we get it - right here on Wildnet news."

The scene fades, the synthesizer playing a rising trumpet sound that ends as the newest adventure faced by the galaxy's citizens is replaced by another set of adventures - the endless battle for their wallets through commercials...
