Animas Era

Aug 3039 - Feb 3040
*The Animas Empire lays claim to the Lylat system and begins its search for the remaining descendants of Fox McCloud, and it is revealed they were the ones who had assassinated him nearly 130 years earlier. The combined efforts of Lylat and the Ursian Empire lead to the defeat of Animas (Feb). Animas mounts a resurgence in April, with Jareth as the new emperor and featuring a new ally, the ravenous Micaya ratfolk.
Feb - April 3040
*The variant of Star Wolf run by Difret Degwesk goes missing, but returns two months later, having rebranded as Dire Wolf.
May 11, 3040
*Dire Wolf interrogates captured Micaya and discovers that they are being controlled by psionic augments. Kroggnar Throkworg, an Orc scientist employed by Dire Wolf, begins work on a device to short out the augments. He succeeds a week later and uses it to capture a high-level Micaya priestess, Krykka.
June 29, 3040
*A coalition of Star Fox and Dire Wolf forces engage in a rescue mission for Star Fox's leader, Katina Hawksby. They use Shul Kro's reverse-engineered Ursian bassnium drive to precision-jump into the prison section of a planet-sized Animas space station. After Dire Wolf's Kroggnar sends out an anti-psionic pulse to short out the augments controlling the Micaya aboard the station, the Micaya begin a revolt against their former Animas masters. Star Fox's Tanis Centuro engages Emperor Jareth in battle, but Jareth is killed after being run over and blown up by Bartholomew Phoenix in a Landmaster tank. Katina is rescued, and they escape just before the station explodes. The Animas Empire subsequently dissolves as a political entity.
July 11 - 26, 3040
*Vallos, the Xal'vau warlord who cut off the galaxy's access to nexite, arrives in the Lylat system with the Sun Eater Platform, a colossal star-mining apparatus. He begins siphoning energy from Lylat and deploys four FTL-inhibitor satellites across the system to prevent interference. After two weeks, 60% of Lylat's power is drained, and Corneria experiences summer snow. Dire Wolf eventually repairs the bassnium drive they used to rescue Katina Hawksby and uses it to bypass the inhibition field to destroy the inhibitors. Preparations begin for a massive assault on Vallos.
August 1, 3040
*Conclusion of Animas War. Lylatian forces incapacitate Sun Eater Platform, and General Jaxer Stareeds rams the Corneria's Pride III into the platform to push it into Lylat. Ursian forces assist with solar stabilizer machines to prevent issues as Lylat slowly reabsorbs its lost energy.
