Memorandum for: Eli Fitzgerald
Chief of State, the New Republic
Subject: Possible Sighting of Moff Krieger
Classification: Secret (CTX-Directive), Medium Priority

Sir, NRI's sensors hub in the Teraab Sector recently reported a number of Imperial vessels moving into the system (specifically, three transports with an escort of two Gamma-class shuttles, one Lambda-class, and a squadron of TIE fighters, designation unknown). We weren't able to identify the ships, but the vessel types are consistent with the task force of rogue warlord Moff Krieger, and NRI now suspects that he is attempting to establish an operation within the sector.

I sent one of my Tala squadron fighters on a recon stint to Tyne's Horky (which is apparently a planet and not a joke, unfortunately for its residents), and we acquired the following holo of interest:

The boys in analysis are convinced that we're looking at an Imperial mining operation, and from what we've gathered it's been only been in operation for about a week (roughly consistent with the arrival of the Imperial ships in the sector). The ores Keschel and Nergon 14 are abundant on the planet, and if this is Krieger, and if he does get some minerals to market, he might eventually be able to reconstitute some of the forces he left behind in his retreat from Borosk earlier in the year.

With your approval, Sir, I'd like to send an operative to "Tyne's Horky" to look into this, and find out exactly who is running this operation and why. It's probably nothing serious. Krieger's been good at covering his tracks, but once we do find him he shouldn't be much trouble.
