The leadership of the GRMS has, additionally, condoned this action; framing it as a purge of Atlas from their space. Therefore it is resolved by the Atlas Empire and the Viceroyal Council that the Atlas Empire and all of its vassal states are hereby at war with the GRMS. For the duration of this conflict, Atlas will be able to provide little assistance to the coalition against the Ruin. The Empire wishes for a speedy end to the regime in control of the GRMS. - Other News - Vandalization of the statue of our Emperor has recently been uncovered, consisting of a black heart painted over the chest of the statue on Olympus.
