The image of the New-Imperial Grand Vizier: Tyrell Paxxus is broadcast across New-Imperial territory and beyond.
“For too long we have been complaisant to a sinister holdover from Sith-Imperial values. In our campaign of defiance, the quest for vengeance has blinded us to the plight of the meek. Above Bescane, the Imperial Assembly has met on behalf of all sectors to discuss this looming injustice that lies so comfortably within our beds.. While our echelons may have been initially divided on the subject, a verdict has been reached. Ultimately the New Order has ruled in favor of its people, and the justice and treatment they are owed.”
“Above our national, tumultuous joy, I have heard the mournful wail of millions whose chains shall be today, broken. From this moment forward, the New Order will begin taking steps to phase out slavery in all corners of our space. This is no longer an issue to be left up to the whims of our provincial governors and is thus universally illegal across all sectors within our space. The penalty for the ownership or trafficking of sentient individuals will henceforth be capital punishment.”
“This decision has come far too late, but I hope that in time our emancipated comrades will come to forgive our transgressions. Our reparations come in the form of services and initiatives to re-integrate freed individuals into New Imperial society. For all those beyond our territories who hear this message; rise up. No fist of iron can snuff the will of defiance, no matter how tight the grip. And to all who hear this message and still hold these repugnant ideals of subjugation:”
“We see you, and you are on our list.”
An adapted line and general inspo from Frederick Douglas' famous "What To A Slave Is The Fourth Of July?" speech.
