The appearance of a powerful Force-using enemy in the Caelus System caught Taldryan off-guard and put the Clan on the defensive. The relocation to the Ostara Temple will take time, and the Clan Summit is relying on its members and associates to buy the time they'll need. The Clan's members aren't without their own problems, though, as various prominent figures scramble to accomplish their tasks.

This competition will include a total of three prompts. Participants may write from the perspective of any of their characters (main, alt, NPC).

Force Mystics: Chagrined by the Mystics' failure to foresee the rogue Star Destroyer's attack, Ektrosis Quaestor Appius Wight is convinced that there's an artifact hidden in the Elysia Observatory that can break the veil over the Mystics' sight. Write about your trip to the sunken chamber and the artifact you recover.

Taldryan Military and Vornskr Battalion: The Consul has ordered reconnaissance units from Taldryan's special forces and the Vornskr PMC to scout the Caelus System for the staging area of the attack against Iosan Fuelling Station. Write about how you found the staging area and what you discovered there.

TEAD Technologies: Logistics is at once the least glamorous and most important job when it comes to running any major organisation, including Clan Taldryan. The Consul's spur-of-the-moment order to move Taldryan's headquarters to Ostara, and the sheer scale of the task, has led to some complications—namely that a critically important item of yours has gone missing in the move. Write about what the item is and what you have to go through to recover it.

All submissions will be graded according to the Official VOICE Fiction Grading Rubric. Submissions should be a minimum of 500 words, and submitted in .doc, .docx, or .pdf format. Links to Google docs will not be accepted.
