Arken Dobson, owner of Dobson Logistal Consulting Firm, and known ally of The Elysium Empire, has been arrested by order of King Heath Valhoun. The arrest has sent shockwaves through the nomadic Empire, which heavily relies on the support of Dobson and his company. Already, rumors have been spread that the once-beloved King Heath Valhoun has gone mad, or given in to corruption. The speculations were accelerated when it was rumored that the cause of the arrest was a fight started by Loreena Arenais, Dobson's main competitor. The speculations have worked their way into the Elysium Imperial Senate, and multiple senators have accused The King of picking sides in the developing capitalistic nation, and some have enven gone as far as to call for The King's removal, with the charge being headed by Senator Johnathan Fant, a frequent opponent to The King and what he calls "Governmental Overreach".


Meanwhile, one of Arken Dobson's children, Severous Dobson, has promised to "Set things straight."

Despite the growing speculations, the majority of The Empire still fervently supports King Valhoun, who they see as a savior for allowing them to immigrate to The Empire.

With a general lack of combat across Elysium territory, King Heath Valhoun has made several changes to military leadership. First off, he fired Admiral Richard Ringo. Then he promoted LCDR Burtch to the position of Commodore, and sent him to train the next generation of Admirals on board The Utopia. Finally, Admiral Cousins has been given command over The Home fleet, while Admiral Keatoch is in Mandalore, helping allies of The Empire.
