 Early morning explosions rocked the quiet moon of [[polemos:9th_age:locations:kalais|Kalais]] (Halix 14) today, where a magrail station was attacked by a heavily armed militia. Members of the "Free Kalasian Army" claimed responsibility just minutes after destroying a train carrying Titan aid to the [[polemos:9th_age:factions:nordis_republic|Nordis]] city of [[polemos:9th_age:locations:erlendom|Erlendom]]. Casualty numbers are currently at 390 dead, with over 100 million IC of economic assistance lost. Early morning explosions rocked the quiet moon of [[polemos:9th_age:locations:kalais|Kalais]] (Halix 14) today, where a magrail station was attacked by a heavily armed militia.

-Eyewitnesses reported a sudden pre-planetrise barrage as the train was unloading, followed by an intense firefight that lasted almost 10 minutes. Nearly a dozen military-grade mechs were used to assault the station and Republican Guard garrisoned at the station were initially overwhelemed. After regrouping Nordis security forces blunted the assault and the FKA retreated, but not before destroying the train and disabling the regional magrail system. Halix networks were soon filled with images of the carnage, including one widely-circulated video of the station control tower being hit by a particle beam weapon as the staff attempted to flee. Memorial services are still being planned and will be announced shortly.+Eyewitnesses reported a sudden pre-planetrise barrage as the train was unloading, followed by an intense firefight that lasted almost 10 minutes.

 The FKA's fourth attack this year, it is the first that has targeted Titan aid. A Nordis spokesperson said the separatist group has a radical agrarian and anti-technology agenda, speculating the train's destruction was meant to be a symbolic attack against the industrialization and progress of the republic. The spokesperson refused to comment on a rumored link between the FKA and [[polemos:9th_age:factions:sanctuary|Sanctuary]]. The FKA's fourth attack this year, it is the first that has targeted Titan aid.
