Report:Attack at Coral City

The Twi'lek, Dejir Walta, interrupts wherever NR-sourced broadcasts are carried. A caption beneath him reads: [Coral City under attack]

"Hello, my fellow free citizens. We're here with breaking news from the war-torn planet, Dac. Our sources indicate that an organized attack has taken place inside the planetary capital of Coral City, where the current local time is just past dawn. From what we are able to tell, this is the first /organized/ attack staged by Quarren citizens against their fellow Mon Calamarians." Walta pauses, his face growing a bit stonier. "Now, we're urging parents to have their children leave the room. We have this small piece of footage from one of our field correspondents, Dek Rendar."

A few moments later, the footage plays. It is grainy and dark; just before dawn in the lower income areas of Coral City. Through the shaky footage, you can make out street lamps and the muddled, echoing sounds of blaster fire and screaming. "There's something up there, around the corner," says a worried human's voice. "There." A finger points to the left, sticking out in front of the camera. "There, there! Go!" The cameraman rounds the corner, just in time to catch sight of a dozen armed Quarren soldiers, firing deadly blue bolts of energy into the lobby of a bank. Fortunately, the bloodbath within is hidden by flying shrapnel, smoke, and debris, but the screams of male and female Mon Calamarians are heard clearly. Then, the camera falls and the image goes silent.

"We lost contact," explains Droja as the camera comes back to him. "And it's unclear when we'll get another correspondent on site. For now, we'll have to wait on any official reports from the NR government. I'm Timo Droja, with IGN."

Regular programming resumes.
