First Encounter and the loss of Aviat
Following the end of the Interstellar Era, the Republic caught wind that an unknown empire had emerged nearby and could pose a threat to to Republic. Initial reactions were to begin training some new fleets and platoon to prepare some kind of defense After several months, nothing of the sort occurred, so the Republic ignored the rumors completely and halted the training program to focus back on the empires infrastructure. What began initially as rumors among the Republic, quickly began to turn awry. Following the disappearance of the Delta-V Corps unit position on the Outer Rim, a secondary unit was dispatched to investigate. Within hours of their arrival they defeated, with barely enough time to warn the Republic of the incoming threat. With little time to prepare, The Royal Council dispatched the only platoon of active personnel, the Dhat Platoon, to the nearest on the frontier worlds, Aviat. The Dhat platoon began coordinating with other local authorities in the region to set up a blockade. Confident the blockade would hold the invaders back, Aviat was placed on high alert and evacuated, but nearby colonies were simply told to be on standby. Vechtho Templesmith was dispatched to Avait to oversee the conflict.

Within several days, the invasion forces moved in. Within hours Vechtho and the Dhat platoon were completely overwelmed and forced to leave the colony. Returning to Aisumer, Vechtho realized they may be completely underprepared for the coming conflict, and enacted what would become the Grand Fleet Initiative.
