Mapping the Outer Reach

A massive celestial atlas lay spread open across the timber table, its glossy pages charting the undisciplined sprawl of civilian star systems. I marched directly onto the double-page spread, my boots planting firmly beside the Orion arm. These local cartographers have documented countless nebulae without the slightest strategic coherence. Drawing a slender silver paperclip from my reserves, I pressed the metal clip squarely into the paper beside the Perseus spiral, anchoring our forward staging post. Let the distant sectors drift in civilian chaos for now; this quadrant has officially been logged into the Imperial registry. Universal dominion begins with meticulous cartography.#StarWars #DarthVader
