A very, very tall man with a rough face and a hard demeanor, dark eyes, and the look of a man who'd seen a battle too many steps up to the podium in the main auditorium of the Admiralty House on Hapes. He glances over the crowd, nodding to several members of the military, his face darkening as he paused briefly on the assembly of reporters sitting directly before him. Behind him, emblazoned on a large standard is the symbol of the Hapes Cons...
Dathomir’s thriving economy continues to push the housing market to new heights as demand for single family housing soars all across the planet.

After spending a full day trapped in darkness hundreds of meters below the earth, with fresh air running low, six Hapan miners were hauled up to safety today, and into the tearful embraces of their loved ones. Exhausted rescue workers heaved sighs of relief after working tirelessly through the night, smiling as they watched the equally exhausted and dust-covered miners reunited with their families.
“We just kept hoping you fellas on t...
Rescue units were called into action earlier today after receiving word of a substantial cave-in at a Hapan mining facility deep in the cluster. Reports are still coming in, but it seems that a large portion of one of the mine’s many long tunnels collapsed unexpectedly, filling the shaft with thick clouds of dust and effectively sealing off the remainder of the tunnel, which possessed no other exits. A group of at least five miners is feared to...

After making these comments, th...
While on patrol yesterday, the HRS Victoria, a Carrack-Class Light Cruiser, stumbled upon a wormhole opening not present on existing charts of the region.
A probe was immediately dispatched to take sensor readings of the interior, in case the hole was being used by foreign ships to enter Hapan space illegally. According to our source in the Navy's PR department, there were no unusual sensor readings from inside the wormhole.
However, me...
