Fori Prime

Fori Prime is one of the 3 planets that resides within the Draco Sector. It is a planet similar to Vernen Wells, with red sand and tall, imposing plateaus. It serves as one of the 2 border planets with the neighbouring Mirin Sector (the other being nearby Estanu), as it has the only FTL Line towards Oshaune.
== Topography ==
Much like the previously mentioned Vernen Wells, Fori Prime is an arid red desert, rich in iron and other minerals that have given the sand its velvet color. Amidst the crimson dunes, tall plateaus dot the horizon, as they can span sizes similar to Super Earth's continents, suggesting possible ancient aquatic activity. Most of the flora consists of dry bushes and shrubs, and the occasional small dead trees.
== History ==
=== Special Military Operations ===
Fori Prime would be under Terminid occupation from the very start of the year 2184. It would endure horrors beyond description that, for the purposes of brevity, we will forgo describing. Fori Prime would lay in bondage, yearning for liberation until the light of Liberty shun on it from the horizon. Shortly after the installation of the Terminid Control System on the Barrier Planets, the Helldivers would finally be able to push farther east, allowing them to access the Draco and Mirin Sectors.
==== Operation Prime Liberation ====
As demand increased for civilian population expansion and energy sources, Super Earth would see the opportunity to fulfill these needs in the Draco and Mirin Sectors. As such, Super Earth High Command issued a major order for the liberation of Fori Prime and Zagon Prime. While Fori Prime would be easily captured, Zagon Prime proved unable to be captured on time, which led to all C-01 forms being denied until further notice.
==== Operation CBCT Protection ====
Despite the previous failure, a new order would be issued. The Helldivers were to obtain and maintain control of Fori Prime, alongside Estanu, Crimsica and Hellmire, for 3 days while Civilian Biomass Collection teams acquired inert Terminids for research purposes. While most of the other planets were relatively easy to keep under control, Fori Prime and Hellmire would prove challenging to maintain, with Fori Prime's defense being consistently tested due to constant assault from Oshaune.
==== Operation Enduring Bulwark ====
Things would only turn for the worse for the remote red planet, as the war soon escalated. Shortly after their complete obliteration on Malevelon Creek in April, the Automatons would return in even bigger numbers on the West, taking over Cyberstan and the rest of the Valdis Sector. And to make matters worse, the Terminids, in an act of sinister coordination with the mechanized foes, would also launch one great offensive in the East.
Despite this incredible, dual-fronted assault, the Helldivers would once more prove themselves the unbreakable shield of mankind, managing to hold the line against dozens of assaults, both bot and bug, with planets like Estanu withstanding up to 5 consecutive assaults. Fori Prime would see its own Terminid Assault during this operation, with its defense resulting in a huge success, in part thanks to the timely liberation of neighboring Oshaune, which was the main supply source for the Terminid assault on Fori Prime.
From here on, Fori Prime's situation would go from a matter of occupation to a matter of holding Fori Prime for as long as possible. Due to its remoteness and other, bigger developments throughout April and especially May of 2184, Fori Prime would see virtually all Helldiver presence in it cease completely, leaving it undefended and, eventually, allowing it to be captured by the Terminids.
=== Second Galactic War ===
As May 2184 rolled in, things soured in the Terminid Front. With the failure of the Terminid Control System and the apparition of the Meridian Supercolony, the Terminid onslaught in the East reached a critical, intolerable level. Fori Prime and the rest of the Draco Sector quickly fell to the bolstered bug assault and would remain in bondage for the whole month.
It would have seemed that all hope was lost for the red planet, which had so far only tasted but a drop of the glorious ambrosia of Managed Democracy. However, Liberty's will was for Fori Prime to have a second chance.
12 scientists would be tragically spaghettified at Moradesh on May 29th, as the SEAF gave the green light to Operation Enduring Peace. It's goal: To use the Dark Fluid, an Illuminate superweapon capable of collapsing planets into black holes, on Meridia. Then on the late hours of May 30th, the news would break: The Helldivers had successfully destroyed the abominable Supercolony, crippling the augmented Terminid wave and allowing for a counterattack.
==== Operation Hive Breaker ====
After a swift re-establishment of freedom on the Umlaut Sector and some much needed victories on the Automaton Front, Super Earth High Command would give a new major order. The Helldivers were to reliberate Hellmire, Estanu, Crimsica, Nivel 43 and Fori Prime.
Crimsica would be liberated first, on June 16th. Then followed Estanu on the 17th. Then, finally, Fori Prime would be liberated once again on June 18th, with Oshaune and Hellmire being selected as the next targets for liberation. However, the Terminids were determined to maintaining their hold over the red planet, as they quickly launched a counterattack on Fori Prime on the morning of June 19th. After a great deal of death, Super Earth held the planet and it is now classified as a "Frontline World Against Evil."
==== Falstaff and Jin Xi Lockdown ====
And true to its new classification, Fori Prime would soon endure another assault. However, the planet would only find misfortune, as it would be assaulted while the Helldivers were diverted to the defense of the Xzar Sector. It would fall shortly and then get stuck in a deadlock for a couple days before then, around June 29th, sending an outburst of Terminid Spores towards Crimsica, which successfully overwhelmed its defenses.
As of the time of writing, the planet is still stuck in a bloody deadlock, as it marks the frontline against the fascistic bugs.
