The Dark Lord's official task force, Dark Force, came from hyperspace to normal space at almost simultaneous intervals. A rather large and imposing force, it would surely strike fear into any system it entered. The fear of death.. the fear of subjugation.. the fear of the Dark Lord himself.
Maim sat silent within his command chair upon the bridge of the Sovereign Class Star Destroyer "Procurator" watching the starlines shrink once more into a speckled sky of twinkling dots. Ilum was all but a worthless hunk of rock. An utter ice ball floating in the depths of space. However, it did contain one useful resource.. Ilum crystals - used in building light sabers. It would also serve his interests well as a base of operations for this sector. Perhaps he would grant control of it to one of his newest commanders. A tight leash must be kept on the new assets of the Procurator of Justice.
Securing this planet would likely be an easy task. Not much resistance was expected and the Dark Lord's personal task force was certainly not needed. However, it was a good exercise for his men, so he ordered Dark Force there nonetheless. The bridge commander informed the Dark Lord that the grav-wells were now activated on the perimeter and they general assault was ready to begin.
"Good. Have the commanders report in." The Dark Lord replied.
"Aye sir."
"Commanders, report in." the 'Procurator's commander said over the comm link.
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Blackfyre" stands ready sir."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "ShadeWolf" is also ready to serve the Dark Lord."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Exar" ready and waiting, sir."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Ulic" prepared for battle."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Nadd" ready and willing."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Blackwind" prepared."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Justice" stands ready."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Sutonic" reports ready, sir."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Frantic" ready sir."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Indestructible" prepared for the subjugation of Ilum, sir."
"Imperial-Class Star Destroyer "Unmatched" prepared for battle."
"Republic Class Star Destroyer "Dread" ready to destroy enemies of the Dark Lord."
"Republic-class Star Destroyer "Styx" prepared for the mission."
"Republic Class Star Destroyer "Controller" ready, sir."
"Republic Class Star Destroyer "Ultima" prepared for battle."
"Republic Class Star Destroyer "Powerhammer" ready to serve, sir."
"Victory-Class Star Destroyer Spirit of Shadowlurker stands ready, sir."
"Victory-Class Star Destroyer Whiskey Breath awaiting further instructions."
"Victory-Class Star Destroyer "Vengeance" prepared, sir."
"Victory-Class Star Destroyer "Somir's Hand" ready, sir."
"Victory Class Star Destroyer "United" prepared for battle, sir."
"Victory Class Star Destroyer "Death's Fist" ready to serve."
"Victory-class Star Destroyer "Victoria" stands prepared."
"Interdictor-Class Immobilizer Cruiser "BlackIce" grav-wells active, sir, and prepared for further instructions."
"Loronar Class Strike Cruiser "Death's Hand" standing ready, sir."
"Lancer-class Frigate "Silent Thunder" prepared for instructions, sir."
The Dark Lord did not truly need to hear the commanders report in. He could easily have just sensed it. However, he liked the personal touch of hearing each commander's voice before any mission. Gave him a better perspective on who was with him, risking their lives for the honor and glory of himself and the Empire as a whole.
