The faction is not only responsible for traning and arming NMLA troops who brought terror to the Empire & abroad; but as well for keeping our Great Emperor in incarceration for over the past year, as funded by the Lords of Restoration. The Emperor Herself has appointed Grand Admiral Denton Patreus, who maintains regional control over the territory, to draft strategic attack plans in conjunction with Admiral Lucius Lavigny, who just a few short days ago sent shock waves across Imperial space when making a unannounced visit to a Senatorial debate. Lucius's remarks foreshadowed the intent of the Duval's to deliever retribution, which manifested early today, as Legion's of Imperial Naval vessles emerged from Witch-Space converging on Darkwater Inc. space installations and assets. Ground fighting broke out in a number in-system terrestrial territories where Darkwater troops fruitlessly prepared to withstand the wrath of the Imperial Hammer, as cohorts of Imperial Guardsmen and orbital artillery assaulted positions. Not all prominent Imperials are in support of this methodology to remove Darkwater Inc. from the Imperium. A handful of Senators expressed contempt for such sudden violence within Imperial space, refusing to contribute their fleets; citing, Imperial citizens "have had enough war & blood-shed over the past year. There are a number of legislative procedures at the Emperor's disposal, in which remove operational powers of private entities from within Her domain without conflict". Grand Admiral Denton Patreus, also a Senator, countered these claims quickly, in which he delivered the following rhetoric:
