"They came not for mere power, but for revenge. A shadowy war in the underworld has burst into the light, and now, the Diarchy stands bloodied but unbowed."
A WAR BENEATH THE SURFACE
For months, the Diarchy has been quietly expanding its reach into territories once dominated by the Hutt Cartel. By backing state-sponsored smugglers and seizing illicit trade routes, the Diarchy has pushed deep into what was long considered Hutt-controlled space. To the outside observer, it was a calculated move to undermine cartel influence—but to the Hutts, it was an unforgivable act of aggression.
The Hutts have retaliated in typical fashion, escalating their simmering feud into a direct and chilling assault on the Diarchy’s very leadership.
THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT
In a daring and unprecedented strike, Hutt agents penetrated the heavily fortified world of Bastion, targeting both Diarchs in an attempt to destabilize the entire regime. Though the assassination attempt ultimately failed, its psychological impact cannot be overstated. The attackers left behind the ominous Deathmark symbol in Diarch Rellik's private chambers—a calling card known across the underworld as a warning of further violence to come.
Sources within the Diarchy confirm that the attackers slipped past multiple layers of security and vanished into Bastion's underworld, leaving investigators scrambling for leads.
A PUBLIC ADDRESS AMIDST THE CHAOS
Despite the attempted decapitation strike, the Diarchs were quick to stand before their people, delivering a powerful message of defiance and resolve:
"The horrific attack on the people of Bastion will not go unanswered. I care not for the attack on mine or my brother’s life, but only for what these lowlifes have done to our people. My brothers and sisters here in the Diarchy, take heart! The peace and order that YOU have built causes these people to quake with fear. They lash out because they know their days are numbered, and together, as always, we will brave this next storm."
"These atrocities will not go unanswered. I swear to you, your Diarchs will not rest until the perpetrators have been brought to justice. For our fallen, for you, for the Diarchy!"
AN UNDERWORLD CONFLICT BOILS OVER
This latest act by the Hutts signals a dangerous escalation in an already volatile situation. The cartel has made it clear they will not quietly accept the Diarchy’s growing influence over the black market. As the galaxy watches, the question becomes clear: Will this brazen attack push the Diarchy into an all-out underworld war, or will cooler heads prevail?
The next steps could define the balance of power within the galaxy’s criminal networks for years to come.
