During the Imperial-Remnant Conflict, the New Republic conducted an **attack** on an Imperial weapons factory.

## Prelude

After days of preparing for the war against the New Empire and the liberation of Vale, the New Republic had targeted a small imperial weapons factory that, if destroyed, would halt the Empire's progress to conquer the rest of Remnant through Lana's plan.

Once Team JNPR was ready, they were sent along with a Mandalorian Commander by Luke Skywalker to deal with the weapons factory they had their eyes set on.

## The battle

They later went to destroy the base and once they were close to it, they had noticed imperial shadow troopers on patrol. They then had split up once gaining access inside of the factory. Pyrrha, a member of JNPR, found a generator room but was guarded by two stormtroopers. She dispatched them, hiding their bodies within the room and was impressed by the design of the generator itself. Before she could plant the bombs, she was engaged by Savage Opress, presumably the commander of the imperials there, attempted to kill her unnoticed but was heard by his large footsteps.

During this time, the imperial drone that had spotted them earlier alerted the security personnel within the base which the team were being engaged by imperial stormtroopers. Nora, another member of JNPR, was engaged by the shadow troopers while the rest were doing their assignments given by their commander. Nora took care of the shadow troopers with ease, even not responding to a stun shot by the troopers and used her weapon to kill the troopers afterwards. Later she would be contacted by Jaune, leader of JNPR, who tells her that Pyrrha wasn't answering her comlink, as she was engaged in combat with Savage, and agrees to go and help if she was in trouble.

Meanwhile Pyrrha was engaged in combat with the Sith enforcer who used his brute strength and power to defeat Pyrrha. The two battled it out for a while until he was able to make her fall to her knees but before he could kill her, Jaune and the rest of JNPR interrupt to save her from death. Nora engages the large Dathomirian with her weapon, long enough for Pyrrha to recover. But before Valkyrie could defeat him, the sound of his lightsaber ignited and JNPR knew the horrors of war; there were always casualties.

After witnessing her death at the hands of Savage, Pyrrha went on a rage attack, disarming the enforcer of his lightsaber and impaling him with her spear. Afterwards she uses his lightsaber to sever his head, killing him instantly. Later after calming down, she turns to face Jaune and Ren with Nora who was still breathing but dies in Jaune's arms after saying her last words to Ren.

## Aftermath

After escaping the factory prior to their planted explosives destroying the structure, JNPR was able to carry their fallen comrade back to their base. That day marked a dark one for JNPR as well as members of RWBY, and the New Republic.
