Report by the Internation Associated Press Oragnisation from Fornænda, Carops:

This afternoon at approximately 3:00, the eastern city of Kimmlish in the Empire of Carops was almost completely destroyed by some sort of weapon. The population, which stood at around 100,000 before the attack, seems to have been completely decimated, with very few to no survivors. Imperial authorities in Fornænda seem unable to present us with any news on the situation, other than reports from a ship which was due to land at Kimmlish's Space Goods Terminal shortly after the destruction of the city. The pilot and chief officer both report seeing a large mushroom cloud as they approached the city.
However, the attack has sent the entire Empire of Carops into a state of total chaos and terror, and created an air of real uncertainty in the capital Fornænda. Officials have been quick to blame the Dominion of Quandoquasm, one of Carops' neighbouring planets for the attack. Quandoquasm, once Carops' staunchest ally, has recently taken issue to the Empire's use of slave labour and threatened to destroy their trading capabilities if they continue their policy on the subject.

The Imperial Ministry of Carops is looking for information from any nearby space vessal or witness who saw anything to contact them immediately.
