Between me and @KrankysFirebrand48
War has begun. The Neu Garmillas Empire, after their confrontation with the Vaiaelons, declared war, supporting their de-facto allies. Alpheratz, returning from the HDC, was was detatched, along with a significant force, to approch an enemy of the Vaiaelons, Thrawn's Infinite Empire, to proffer an alliance.

Two days later, they emerged at the edge of the system, fleet dropping into formation. One Velgar-class super dreadnought, one Gelvan-class battlecarrier, three Haizen-class battleships, six Meltoria-class battlecruisers, eleven Dezariun-class heavy cruisers, fifteen Kelkavar-class light cruisers, and twenty-two Liavar-class destroyers warped out, the pride of the 8th, Alpheratz's finest.

    They were forced to arrive at the edge of the system. It was a TIE border system, a galactically insignificant mining colony, one of many, out here on the edge of TIE space. While scanning around they noticed several massive ships, 13 km in length. However, upon further information gathering, they were identified as transport ships. The system was moderately protected with a couple of Bastonian cruisers in orbit around a planet half an AU away from the mining colony and in the inner system, closer to the main sequence star. Closer to the NGE ship was a Resolve-class destroyer on patrol. Its tachyon pulse line turned towards an unknown location, transmitting in encoded Anglish.
    'Several ships have emerged at the Tridat system. All military... from the NGE. 28 warships detected. Respond.'
    The NGE immediately received a transmission:

    // Transmission start //
    'This system is under Union of Judgement jurisdiction and is considered active warzone by the Union powers and the Embassy. Immediately leave the proximity of Tridat or this will be considered an act of aggression.'
    // Transmission end //

      On the bridge of his flagship, Alpheratz frowned.
      "Bastonians, hmmm? No matter, they may still be helpful."
      In response to the Bastonian hail, the NGE ships halted, and sent a response, Alpheratz's crisp response coming through their speakers.
      This is Vice Admiral Alpheratz, in command of the 18th Garmillas Task Force. We are here to arrange a diplomatic contact with Thrawn's Infinite Empire. As far as we know, you have no jurisdiction here.
      The Garmillas ships remain at the edge of the system, but their weapons are cold.

        The Resolve-class made a slight course correction and headed away while a sensor ship approached instead.
        // Transmission start //
        'Thrawn's Infinite Empire is no longer a legitimate state and the territory of Catamaria is currently being liberated. Any interference with Union operations in this territory will be met with a military response. Your ships will not be harboured here or in the proximity.'
        // Transmission end //

          //Transmission start //
          'By the authority of the high courts ruling on TIE as a terrorist state supported by galactic law and the sacred constitution. We will not allow you to violate Catamarian sovereignty and enter the war zone to negotiate with terrorists.'
          // Transmission end //

            ’There will be no successor to TIE. The essence of the nation has been destroyed and replaced with a new beginning, that being Catamaria, the state which holds jurisdiction over the space you have recently entered.’
