Grand Admiral Vonn Sayall sat in his command chair on the bridge of the [i]Firebrand[/i] came out of hyperspace. Sayall had wanted to maintain the element of surprise, so he had ordered Captain Darklighter to bring the fleet out of hyperspace within close proximity to Rodia. Sayall was impressed with the captain and his crew, as their navigation skills proved to be second to none, as the brought the super star destroyer and the rest of the fleet that accompanied them so close to Rodia that they could see the water and energy domes surrounding the cities on the surface. 

Sayall stood and approached the transparisteel window of the bridge, and a slight smile formed on his lips as he looked out at the swampy world before him. Right now, at the Senatorial Palace, a representative from the Republic Senate was meeting with the Grand Protector himself, trying to persuade the Rodians that the Republic not only has Rodia’s best interests at heart, but that they can protect them from hostile forces, whenever they may arise. 

It was up to Sayall and his fleet to show Rodia as well as the Republic just how misguided that line of thinking truly was. 

“Captain Darklighter.” Sayall said to the man standing beside him.

“Yes Grand Admiral?” Captain Darklighter responded.

“You may begin the orbital bombardment of the planet.” The Grand Admiral ordered.

“Of course, Sir.” Darklighter replied.

“Once the bombardment is over, sent the TIE fighter squadron to the sub orbit to show these…[i]primitives[/i] the power of the Empire.” Sayall spat.

“It will be done.” The captain told him as he turned to issue the orders.

“And captain?” Sayall called.

“Yes Sir?” Darklighter replied.

“Once the planet’s defenses are rendered useless we will need to…suppress the local population. Prepare a legion of stormtroopers for touchdown.” Sayall ordered.

“Yes, Sir.” Darklighter replied.
“Captain, it is time to remind the Republic just who it is that truly rules the galaxy.” Sayall said with a grin as he watched the planetary bombardment commence.
