Chapterhouse Restores Order to Nemgla

Months of political upheaval in the Nemgla system came to an end this week as Kamadhenu's Chapterhouse of Inquisition made the difficult decision to impose direct rule upon the struggling mining colony.

Visitors and workers alike had been alarmed by outbreaks of violence ever since rival corporations had arrived to engage in a turf war for control of Nemgla's mineral wealth.

Original rulers Integrated Nemgla had requested assistance from Kamadhenu following the loss of their Norman Point mining facilities to Sauraratec Industries; Inquisition operatives were sent from the Chapterhouse to mediate a peaceful resolution.

It is understood that before talks could begin a second corporation, Arapa Crimson Advanced, unexpectedly seized control of chief starport Maine's Inheritance, deposing Integrated Nemgla as system authority. There are conflicting reports immediately after this point, but what can be determined is that Integrated Nemgla's governing council was assassinated by unknown assailants, and that the system then suffered an almost complete breakdown in order and security lasting up until this week.

Eyewitnesses have reported Chapterhouse and Arapa Crimson Advanced armed forces clashing at key locations in recent days. From Shajn Market in Kamadhenu a spokesperson for the Chapterhouse of Inquisition confirmed that they had now taken control of the Nemgla system:
“Events in Nemgla up until yesterday were clearly spiralling out of control. The reported fate of Integrated Nemgla's leadership is a tragedy, and we grieve together with the people of Maine's Inheritance,” she continued, “We commend the actions of our Inquisitors who were coincidentally so well placed to intervene at the critical time, protecting innocent civilian lives from any further harm,”
“Although it has been a difficult decision to make, the Chapterhouse of Inquisition will now strive to govern the people of Nemgla responsibly in the absence of their former leaders.”
