A letter was delivered by droid courier to the offices of Darth Anathemous several days ago, signed by the former Darth Xyrah.
"My dear Kaila. As you have likely heard, I recently stepped down from my title as a Sith Lord to pursue my own endeavors, free from the restrictions and burdens of Sith politicking. It was not a decision I took lightly, though I found it the wisest course of action for the sake of my own mental health. However, that does not mean I abandon my friends. I have arranged a gift for you. I have a.....extremely sizeable amount of military assets that require new leadership if I am stepping down, so I have arranged for a delivery for you before I remove myself from my post. As my last act of authority before I step down, I, Darth Xyrah, hereby confer direct control over my droid military forces, and all of my droid foundries, weapons manufacture plants and shipyards within Sith space. My legions and fleets are now yours. My beloved husband may...disagree with this decision, but I do it for a reason. I've sensed a....change coming. I do not know what it is, or what it may entail, but I know this decision will prove to be the right one. I hope this gift serves you well. And please, when you're free from Sith politics for a bit, do come and see me! I'm still expecting regular visits."
Shortly after delivery of the letter, reports of the arrival of a large fleet of ships carrying a sizeable droid army within the Echnos system had been reported by Sith intelligence. Vessel designs commonly associated with Darth Xyrah's former fleet, but now sporting the freshly painted insignias of Darth Anathemous.
