'And as you might have already heard, Mr. Sta'aknam, the Shenanigans franchise has already proven incredliby successful in a plethora of nations. All franchise owners have recorded excellent sales quotas. Investment gambles, if I should even call it a gamble, are likely to yield nearly one thousand percent returns.' Uwe Harvam, the CEO of Shenanigans, had decided to come to Haven space station in Red Talons territory to speak to interested foreign investors. The man he was speaking to right now was Lois Sta'aknam, crown prince of the Emirate of Arcturus IV, a neutral protectorate of Auman.

'I've looked into your company, Mr. Harvam and I have to tell you I am impressed. We haven't seen a restaraunt enterprise of this sort receive these kinds of reviews since Cute Bunny Burger corporation opened its doors. I profited quite handsomely from that endeavour and I am full interested in seeing where Shenanigans can go.' Said Sta'aknam.

'As do I, Crown Prince.' Harvam sipped a cup of tea. The two men were enjoying brunch at a fabulous little simulated outdoor cafe. 'Please, call me Jon.' Said Sta'aknam. The two men joked for awhile and made casual business talk while they finished their meals. Suddenly, alarms began to scream. The charming little street mall, that was built to resemble something similar to a dutch market place, was shocked. The tourist district came to a complete halt, waiting for instruction to come over the intercom.

'All hands report to escape pods, we are under attack. All hands, report to escape pods...'

Harvam and Sta'aknam quickly got to their feet and started to run to the nearest evacuation point. When a mob became visible, the men realized that the last escape pods in this district had been launched, moments later it wouldn't matter. The market was engulfed in a maelstrom.

It would be hours, even days, to discover the fate of the men. An Aumanii CEO and a crown prince of the protectorate of Arcturus IV. Retaliation would be certain.
