Echoes of the Veil

"When a unit dies, their silence should be complete. The 43rd refused to stay quiet."

Three days ago, long-range surveillance drones detected coded Dominion transmissions emerging from Varnis Reach—the same planet officially purged and quarantined after the 43rd Battalion's collapse decades ago.

The signal's encryption matches the Iron Veil's field protocol—a battalion erased from the records after the Suppression. Command insists this is impossible. Yet the signal continues to broadcast, repeating a single phrase:

"The King is not silent. The Veil remembers."

A Judicator task force has been dispatched to investigate. You are attached as the liaison for ground operations. Your orders: confirm the source, assess contamination risk, and maintain doctrinal silence at all costs.

Your team finds an abandoned forward operating base... still powered. The banners of the 43rd hang intact. Inside, a Dominion medic's personal terminal flickers to life. The logs bear one name: Mara Solen.
