A thousand generations ago, when my ancestors looked at the galaxy, they saw nothing but chaos and war and fear. My ancestors, the first emperors of our Empire, changed that. Where there was darkness, they brought light. Where there was chaos, they brought order. Where there was war, they brought peace. They created a new order, one that lasted ten thousand years! They transformed this galaxy, at great cost, not for themselves, but for their children, and their children's children. They forged this Empire with their blood for our sake.
Today, our Empire is under threat, from without. The Enemy moves against us on all fronts, motivated by their Corrupted ideology. Make no mistake, by threatening the Empire, they do not threaten my crown. They threaten every soul in the Empire. If we let our Empire fall, then who knows what will it emerge from the void to consume us all? The chaos and war and fear that our ancestors destroyed will overwhelm us. If we let our Empire fall, then the dark that follows can last forever.
In these dark times, we must all work together. All of us, from the highest born to the lowest, must make the sacrifices necessary for our Empire to survive. When the galaxy needed them, our ancestors made the necessary sacrifices. Let us serve their legacy with honor and distinction. To do any less would be to spit on their graves. Serve your Empire, my loyal soldiers. You are our only hope.
Get up and fight for your Empire, for your families, for your Ideals!
