# Battle on the Spinward Front

-Ongoing conflict occurs against the arch enemy. Reports always claim decisive victory of the Asterion Guard.

-\[Aug 14 2024\] Celebrations of a great victory on the front has been reported, with no [Imperial Navy](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/chapter/imperial-navy "Imperial Navy") ships lost and a great number of enemy Tau forces destroyed and routed. [Admiral Trakkyr](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/rear-admiral-sipentia-von-trakkyr "Rear Admiral Sipentia von Trakkyr") proclaims this as a victory for all of Asterion. The Imperial Navy group has returned and is [Port Lysander](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-locations/page/port-lysander "Port Lysander"). This is taking up a great deal of docking space, prompting the [Penance Guild](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/chapter/penance-guild "Penance Guild") to charge higher prices for space at the Port. This has caused grumblings, and the [DeWonti Trade Consortium](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/chapter/dewonti-trade-consortium-absent "DeWonti Trade Consortium") believes they are being targeted with particularly exorbitant rates.

-\[Oct 23 2024\] [House Nimea](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/chapter/house-nimea "House Nimea") has been publicizing/promoting the news that the Immortals 99th Armored Division, the 798th Kallastin Lancers, and the 32nd Jotungarth Grimfangs, all under the command of newly appointed [Lord General Eton Rothay Nimea](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/lord-general-eton-rothay-nimea "Lord General Eton Rothay Nimea") have deployed to the Aolean system to invade Aolean II. One of Rear Admiral von Trakkyr's Battlegroups is preparing to support them.

-\[Jan 29 2025\] The increased presence and activity of the Imperial Navy forces on [Port Lysander](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-locations/page/port-lysander "Port Lysander"), likely resulting from the election of [Archmagos Dominus Voltaire 19-A](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/archmagos-dominus-voltaire-19-a "Archmagos Dominus Voltaire 19-A"), has caused friction between the military and merchant factions aboard the station; mediation may be necessary. In addition, House Nimea has been meeting frequently with the Archmagos, and are attempting to earn favor through an array of gifts.

-\[3/12/25\] To support the war effort, House Nimea informed us they would need to reduce amount of [Asterion Tonic](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/keojrah-glynt-assets/page/asterion-tonic "Asterion Tonic") provided to KG-Co for our trade arrangements; though they offered to pay compensation for the breach of contract, we declined the offer, to prevent any perception of our faction as not supporting the war effort.
