• Naaven Torr double-crosses Glann Cipple by selling information to the Empire and dies painfully aboard the then derelict Euphoria Space Station in orbit above Chinyard, torn to pieces by a pack of starved Sraw Rats. Broadcast live to certain establishments, this served as a graphic illustration of what could be expected for cheating Glann Cipple. Soon the phrase `Naaven’ passed into popular vernacular as a name for a spy or a traitor.
• In order to facilitate his forthcoming election race, Glann Cipple enlists the assistance of Garris Tarainnew, head of the Amagadian Chamber of Justice and a well-respected public figure. Initially resistant, the lure of promised wealth and influence is too much for Tarainnew to resist and he agrees.
• Realising the need for a legitimate face to his underworld operations, Glann Cipple opts to run for the governorship of Amagad City. With resident Imperial Admiral Kriner on his payroll he soon streaks ahead in the election race against an actor named Ansonn that he has employed to play the part of his main opponent.

• Den Treece is promoted and takes up the office of Governor of Zelon, based in Chancai. His first order of business is to help persuade Janos to call off its war with the sector, and in doing so promises to bring Anzai Karoo to justice for the blasphemous act of destroying a Janos Holy temple.
• Culdinatia the Third agrees to Governor Treeces’ proposition and ends the two-year Holy War on the Setnin sector.

Lomona swears that from that day forward he would leave his droid Aurran on the ship to keep her warmed and ready for immediate take-off.

• Jan Lomona leaves his droid Aurran with Romanoe for safekeeping during the first Gang War.
• After the conclusion of the first Gang War Cipple learns that Aurran briefly served Wessen, a rival gang leader a year before and had amassed a sizeable amount of information. Cipple orders the droid stripped to the wires and the information retrieved.

• Jezzren is hired as Glann Cipples assistant.
