Chapter 65 – Siege of the Redreach Vault
Beneath every empire lies a vault.
Not of gold or gems—but of secrets.
And the Scarlet Guild's secrets were buried in a place most feared to speak of—Redreach.
Once a thriving mining colony, now a ghost world—its skies forever stained crimson by the iron-rich storms that tore across its surface.
But for Sovereign Kairos, Redreach was no longer just a name on a corrupted file.
It was the heart of the enemy.
And it was time to cut it out.

The Strike Team
The war table in Kairos' command chamber shimmered with topography—Redreach's ruined cityscape displayed in rich holographic detail.
Kairos stood at the helm.
"Mission objective: breach the Scarlet Vault beneath the Redreach Exchange. Retrieve data cores. Neutralize hostiles. Leave no trace we were ever there."
The Council remained silent.
This was not a sanctioned war.
This was a message.
