Breaking News from Shili - The scene fills in to a vision of battle-scarred ancient stonework of Torgrutala. Blood and blaster burns scar the otherwise beautiful architecture of the city. A large number of corpses are laying about... human, trandoshan, bith... but the vast majority are Clones. The camera finishes its pan and centers on the familiar face of Mettius Thrax, in armor.
"Greetings, Galaxy. You're likely not used to seeing me as you do right now, but that is because I tend to keep a low profile in my support of the Republic. More interested in the rights of merchants and safety of trade routes throughout the galaxy, I rarely set foot on a battle field. But I take particular pleasure in this..." he says and at that moment waves his hand behind him. Many clones lay piled there, but it can be seen that they are not the typical fighting clones that the Blacks use. They look humanoid with pale skin and on a few that lay with their eyes open the viewer can see the mis-matched eyes... one blue and one green. Beautiful features that have been... warped.
Mettius comes back into the frame, "These are the elite fighting clones, called 'mirror' clones by the Blacks. Supposedly unstoppable and the key to their victory. But here they lay. Euphemia Bellamy, whom cares for so-called peace can look upon what her peace has brought her beloved pets. For that is what she views clones. Animals that she sends out to do her bidding and keep her warm at night," a dark smile crosses Mettius's face and he shakes his head, "I warned you all, Imperium. You should not have provoked me. Those of you who I know... you will be dealt with. Those who I do not... defect, abandon your posts, take your own lives, for you fight a losing cause and your days are numbered."
