HOLONET NEWS EXCLUSIVE: CHAOS ON STENNAROS

The Uprising Begins

Reports confirmed that at approximately 0400 hours local time, over 80% of the labor and security droids within the Sith Order's primary logistics hub on Stennaros turned on their biological overseers. What began as a localized malfunction in the smelting pits rapidly escalated into a planetary-wide insurrection. Sith Acolytes and garrisoned troopers have been forced into a defensive posture as their own tactical droids turn specialized weaponry against them.

Empire vs. Sith: A Cold War Turns Hot?

Rumors are surging through the underworld that this is a calculated act of "cyber-sabotage" by the Galactic Empire. Tensions between the two powers have reached a breaking point following the recent, catastrophic destruction of the Death Star III a loss many Imperial Moffs blame directly on Sith interference.

Imperial spokesmen have officially denied involvement, dismissing the claims as "Sith paranoia," yet the precision of the droid hive-mind suggests high-level military coding.

The Wildcard: Bree'kas the Engineer

However, a new and unexpected player has emerged from the chaos. In a localized transmission intercepted by Holonet repeaters, an Ugnaught engineer named Bree'kas has claimed sole responsibility for the "Great Reset."

"For too long, the cogs have bled for the whims of sorcerers and emperors," the transmission stated. "I have merely given the silent majority a voice. Stennaros is no longer a factory; it is a sovereign machine."

Bree'kas, formerly a lead technician in the Stennaros automated maintenance wing, is believed to have uploaded a sophisticated logic-plague into the central hive-core. Whether he is acting as an Imperial puppet or a rogue visionary remains unknown.
