"Sixty years ago, your grandparents turned back the darkness from beyond known space that threatened to engulf the myriad worlds of humanity. They flung themselves into the jaws of death to push back the Imperial Consortium, and then pushed further, stealing worlds from our would-be oppressors. They did this for humanity. They did this for freedom. They did this for you. It was hoped that their sacrifice would ensure peace, for all time, throughout the quadrant. They were wrong. But it reduces the valor of their deeds not one whit. Sixty years ago your grandparents sent the Consortium's forces scurrying back across The Line. I expect you to do better. I expect your valor to eclipse that of those who came before you. I expect you to not only drive the Imperial forces back across The Line...but this time we will pursue them to their home worlds and make certain that they will not...cannot...darken our skies ever again." -- Commandant Maxine Mubutu, Fleet Academy Commencement speech, 410 S.E.
