"A great evil threatens the peace and freedom of the peoples of our galaxy. Corruption and mindless bureaucracy rules this galaxy. Our politicians, who neither work nor sacrifice, have forgotten, if they ever knew it, that freedom is not free, that the price of freedom is constant vigilance. We made many sacrifices, but it was worth it. This is not the end of the journey, but the beginning of one. We are now the Confederacy of Independent Systems."

It all began on Year 9 Day 230 at one distant planet in the forgotten corners of the Galaxy. Weather was stormy, dark clouds blocked the sight. Rain was pouring down at the military base in the middle of the forest. Small group of soldiers were standing in the small square at the center. Their weapons were covered with thin rain drops, their uniforms were shining from the same drops. Each of them had the same white hexagon on their shoulders and helmets. They were waiting for commands from their superiors, all perfectly trained in many battles, all willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. Eyes inside the helmets looked at the small tribune where young man was standing. He didn’t carry any weapon, nor armor, but all of the soldiers on the square feared him. For he was their wise leader Athanas Nadeset.

Without any rush, he looked at the group standing in front of him and said:” My warriors, I’m proud of you. You did the impossible to make our common goal come true. We made many sacrifices, but it was worth it. This is not the end of the journey, but the beginning of one. We are now Confederacy of Independent Systems.”

Athanas’ words came true, for the next few months CIS began expanding with incredible speed, numerous planets fell under their control. People believed them, no matter they were mercenaries. Their services were highly appreciated and many important people in the Galaxy hired them for special services. Loyal, professional and obedient, they quickly built name for themselves as capable of doing everything as long as credit flood was constant.

Today, the dream of CIS lives on under the new leadership of Falnor Urthadar. Staying true to their roots and maintaining their affiliation with Rogue Squadron, the Confederacy of Independent Systems still governs many planets and maintains a strong credit flow, as well as the loyalty and appreciation of many millions of sentient beings in the galaxy.
