This morning, denounced Consol Otho hosted a press conference in which he formally declared "A war against tyranny, injustice, and corruption" against the Antethian Hegemon. The news broke and A.G. reporters have learned that Consol Otho's nephew, Marcus Augustine, was killed by Antethian Counter Intelligence. Sources have released satellite footage that appears to show a mixed group of Antethian soldiers and mercenaries shooting a man, assumed to be Marcus, at point blank range while in handcuffs in a remote location. The ruling council has adamantly denied that the killer is affiliated with the government, and that there is no proof that the man on the footage is indeed Otho's nephew.
The ruling council has stated that it will defend its territory "with unrelenting force."
Both militaries have begun to mobilize, and minor naval conflicts have sparked on the Jiat Sea that separates the two factions.
Otho also made a system wide statement that anyone that with information on his nephew's killer will be handsomely rewarded.
Everyone here at The Antethian Gazette urges people to stay safe in these troubled times.
