<p class="MsoNormal">On behalf of the The Holdfast, we present this intelligence briefing to inform The Will of our state’s edification regarding our encounter/interaction details within and adjacent to our borders, annexes, territories, and subjugated worlds.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the Empire of the Sun Border:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Colony Raid #2488</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have prioritized colony defense in the wake of the destruction of the world in Sector #2326. A Task Force was dispatched to prevent any incursion against one of the Holdfast's colonies on the Empire of the Sun Border. (Tholian Victory)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the Earth Federation Front Border:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Pursuit #2573</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Neither belligerent desired to engage in this sector. (Dropped)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Evacuate Observatory #2574</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Earth Federation Front continues to place its most poorly adapted citizens in jeopardy. When detected the calls for assistance from their outpost in the Heat Zone in Sector #2574. Ships were dispatched to assist with the evacuation,
but EFF forces were already arriving to deliver them to safety. A shame that they didn't provide the same level of concerns for the citizens of the colony world in Sector #2326 when they aided in its destruction, failing even to attempt to evacuate any of
their population. (EFF Victory)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the The Vibrant Venomous Vudar Border:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Prospecting Raid #2668</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Security ships assigned to the asteroid mining operations in Sector #2668 appear to have been sufficient to deter any incursion by Vudar forces. (Tholian Victory)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Convoy Raid #2669</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The supply convoy in Sector #2669 arrived at Holdfast Command on time and without incident. (Tholian Victory)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the Office of Frontier Security Border:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Pursuit #2673</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We suspect that the Klingon cruiser conducting a sweep of Sector #2673 detected elements of Battle Group Samek returning from the interphase pocket that they had stumbled into last cycle. After noting their erratic maneuvering, they returned
to the baseline course and concluded their patrol. (OFS Victory)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Terrain Defense with Ground Combat #2674</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">TWW Servitor 1002 dropped out of the interphase in Sector #2674. Fortunately, there were no hostile ships in the area and the vessel and its crew were able to make it to the nearest base for repairs. (Tholian Victory)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This concludes the current cycles report for The Indomitable Will of the Tholian Holdfast, its Annexes, Territories, and Subjugated Worlds. Dissemination of the report without prior authority and consent of The Will is punishable by apprehension,
trial, incarceration, and execution of all guilty parties, accomplices, and confederates. By compliance with these measures, The Will endures.</p>
