The Republic was weak and inefficient. The Empire has brought order and stability.
The transition is rough for most. Traditions that have existed for generations are slowly being replaced by the new order.
But the people need not fear, for Her Majesty speaks to you now, however remotely.
Empress Deia, first of her name, is a vision of ethereal grace and kindness. The color red has never seemed so warm and welcoming.
Her Majesty assures the people that they must endure this brief period of hardship to emerge into her idyllic utopian vision for the galaxy.
The galaxy tunes in to watch her every time she speaks. It is mandatory, but they do it gladly.
She will watch over her people and lead them to glory.
Meanwhile, elsewhere, behind her projected façade, the Empress's true face remains hidden, as do her plans for the galaxy.
Long Live The Empress!
