章 361: Intel & Recon, Pt 1

Planet: Thilarri Central, Thilarri System, Imperial Domain of the Boundless Drogar

The crowd across the amphitheater stands cheered wildly and with incredible gusto. Most were standing up, yelling, clapping, stomping, making the most noise possible. Tens of thousands of them all faced towards the massive stage in the center, while numerous drones floated above some of their heads.

Each of those drones projected numerous holographic signs in the air, many of which read:

—

Retholis for Emperor

-

Long-term Profits, Not Short-term War

-

Strength From Order, Order From Strength

—

At the very center of the large outdoor arena, former swarmfather Retholis stood on a hovering platform and waved at the crowd all around him.

The planet’s digitized sun shined right down onto him through the open gaps in the massive dome that floated above. At the same time, a light wind fluttered through the amphitheater and caused his simple, nondescript robes to flutter.
