LFX News Network - Ayddar Veila Reporting

"Welcome, friends, to another Special Report of the LFX News Network, your leading source of news in the galaxy. Tonight we must mourn the loss of one of our own, Trade Federation Vicory Nelix Galdra.

"The Vicory was last seen leaving Neimiodia six days ago, and has been missing since. No contact has been recieved from Nelix since then. He is missing, presumed dead.

"With the absence of their esteemed Vicory, the Trade Federation has begun to feel the strain. Rogue employees are tearing the company apart, looting Neimoidia and escaping with as much as possible.

"It appears that the Federation has finally reached the point where it will not be returning.

"In an official comment to the media this afternoon, LFX Industrial CEO Seti Ashar said this:"

"I think that we all mourn the loss of Nelix Galdra, both has a friend and a business associate. At this time, when relations between our two Corpoations were beginning to blossom, the blow is grevious indeed.

"LFX Industrial has dispatched a party to Neimoidia to put an end to the looting, and perhaps save that world from annihilation at the hands of Nelix's successors.

"The Trade Federation's demise has upset the fragile balance this galaxy hangs on. We are attempting to right it."

"More developments on the state of the Trade Federation, and the disappearence of Vicory Galdra, as they become known.

"Until then, I'm Ayddar Veila, and this is the LFX News Network."
