Welcome to the Galactic News Service
Praxium members takes a stance
Posted by: Kyp von Exodus, Jedi Praxium
Date: Year 0 Day 1 Onboard the YT-1300 The Glory at galactic position (150, -150).
The holonet flickers suddenly, and the spinning Praxium logo, in form of a lightsaber and the words "Praxium - Defenders of Peace, Knowledge and Justice", appears. It fades out into darkness and the next image that fades in shows various members from the Jedi Praxium which approach a podium.
All of them are dressed in their Praxium uniforms. They stand one next to the other until one of them put a foot forward. His face is new to those outside the Praxium, but is well known within the ranks. The human clears his throat and starts speaking.

"Greetings, beings of our Galaxy! My name is Draven Harth, Deputy Director of the Information Services branch in the Jedi Praxium. I am speaking on behalf all of us, all the Praxium members."

Draven takes a look over his shoulder, gives a nod, then turns his cold blue eyes back to the holocam. His voice is clear and strong.

"We have come before you to make public our loyalty and support towards our leader, Jedi Master Reajiad Nero. He is a victim of the dark times that are engulfing the galaxy and as such he is suffering in a way nobody should. There are certain codes which shouldn't have been broken, but regretfully, they have been."

Draven now takes a step to the right of the podium, putting his left hand on it, and the right one in front of him, articulating and with his palm up.
"Our great leader was betrayed and for that reason he almost decided to leave the Praxium. We almost lost a leader, we almost lost a man that with time we learned to call a friend. That is what he means to us, he is not just a symbol, he is our friend and because of this we won't let him down! He was there when we needed him, now is the time to pay back our debt. We owe him much more than we can probably ever give."

At this, the holofeed zooms in onto Dravens face.
"Nero, our friend, your pain is our pain, we would take your place in agony, you have only to ask for it, and any of us would do it even if it means our death. We would, and will die for you, with honour!"
The camera zooms out, and it shows that Draven is holding his closed fist above his head.

"Like we said before, we support Reajiad, however we are not the ones to judge if his actions were right or wrong. But neither have any of you the right to judge him. In fact, we wonder with what right you demand things of him? He is a keeper of Peace, Justice, and Knowledge - Not your mighty soldier!"
The man shakes his fist above his head, but then brings it down to his side again.

Draven takes a step back behind the podium.
"I would like to conclude with a phrase that my grandfather once told me: 'What we do in life echoes in eternity'. It is true, and you all know it. Learn from your mistakes - and change yourselves. Make a better galaxy... For we will!"

"Goodbye, beings of the Galaxy. May the Force be with you."

Draven Harth descends from the podium followed by the other members.
