Power War (open to all)Power War
Bianas- a poor colony planet. Within the planet, a small city- Nyulanzt- had become a dominant force in its region. The city, declaring its independence from the central government, had become a threat that needed to be dealt with. The ruling noble family of Nyulanzt, the Nyul family, had the honor and treat of crushing an invasion force in battle.
Now, with Nyulanzt in secure control of the Nyuls, and the city-state's military expanding upon the new nation through conquest, the Nyuls have sought other avenues of wealth; and potentially a way to rule the planet.

Mikalez Nyul, a nobleman and General of the Nyul’s new city-state, trotted happily into the dimly-lit hallway, noting the eccentric furniture his uncle had chosen to decorate the palace with. Holographic images of intergalactic news hovered above tables, and chairs were made of oddly painted bantha fur; not the average palace. Of course, what exactly was the average palace was eccentric at best.
Mikalez’s uncle, a young human with matte black hair, was seated in his throne, twitching nervously.
“Did you find it?” the nobleman, Kiald Nyul, inquired, itching his neck with what appeared to be an extreme case of paranoia.
“We couldn’t find the ruins, but one Captain Ki’galsh, a Neomoidian officer of mine, did report many natural resources useful to our cause were found. Premade food packages left behind by fleeing enemy troops along with supplies were picked up, but a more profitable resource was found. Throughout an unknown- until now- small range of mountains to the east, valuable mineral deposits were discovered. Various metals were found, but the largest deposit was of an unknown gem- a black material.
“We tested the material for some time, discovering that, unlike the other materials, when heated at high temperatures, this mineral, Nyuldite, transforms into a gas state, in which it becomes a clear mist. It is then a perfect fuel source, and is widely available. We’ve already begun exporting it cheaply to Huttese merchants in town, and we are expanding upon the business.”
“Very good,” Kiald responded, smiling quickly before resting his head on his hand. “What other news?”
Mikalez breathed in and out a few seconds before returning his gaze to his uncle. “The mineral here is common, but an explorer of ours, who returned yesterday from eastern enemy territory, has reported that there it is so easy to find it is practically the value of dirt. This has advantages and disadvantages. If we manage to get a hold of it we could have a massive new industry in our nation. If the enemy starts selling it it’s worthless….”
Without even an order, Mikalez knew what to do.

Lord Mortalis, part of a group of Sith investigating the rebellion on Bianas, swiveled his chair around, childishly- and one of the few times he would- enjoying swerving around in a swivel chair. Simply, he was bored out of his mind. Several other Sith, bringing with them their personal guards and a small Sith military force, had assembled in the Star Destroyer, the Hermes, to evaluate the situation and execute the plan which was, basically, to take the planet in confusion.
The Sith, hoping to expand their borders to a perfect colony planet, spotted Bianas, marveling at the moment they’d been given. Bianas was a temperate planet with some urban areas, little to no external affiliation with other governments, hardly even known about in the Republic, and, at this very moment, it was in a civil war. Should a group of Sith dispose of government on the planet, let rioters kill themselves off, and move in to take over, the world was theirs.
Of course, the situation couldn’t be that easy. The Republic had to interfere. The year was 59 A.B.Y. and they galaxy was uneventful. With the past Rebellion, holonews and the Galactic senate were full of debates. In the end, a group of Jedi and their small group of troops were sent to quell the rebel threat, and restore order.
Of course, for years to come, the incident would be debated, dramatized, and even put into entertainment, but in truth…
