The chaotic and relentless state in Mid sector 101 stretched on for an extended period, much longer than anyone could have imagined. This was a sector already steeped in centuries of unending wars and devastating destruction, wars that had ravaged every single planet in one way or another.

Every single force present in the sector was thoroughly exhausted. No commander wished for another engagement. No soldier wanted to risk another loss. No fleet desired to be thrown into yet another storm of destruction.
The sector's inhabitants, from the highest-ranking leaders to the lowest-ranked operatives, were all mentally and physically drained.
