Imperial Executor Vodo approaches the podium. He is covered in a cloak and appears much older than he did a few days ago

Greetings, humble citizens of the Dark Side.

Yes. I appear much older than I did a few days ago. I have decided that I will no longer add to my youthful vigor by taking clones for myself. The Dark Side will reveal what I truly am. Pure unadulterated hatred, evil and anger.

Now for your questions.

A reporter raises her hand

Reporter: There are rumors that the restricted military zone in the Tatoo system will soon expand outside system position 6, 11. What can you tell us about that rumor?

Executor Vodo: Those rumors are in fact correct and were purposely leaked on Saturday from the general meeting of Imperial officers.

Reporter: Will that expansion come to include the planet Tatooine?

Executor Vodo: The military zone will expand as required to apprehend galactic criminals that have found back water planets, like the one found in this system, their safe haven.

Reporter: You speak of Tatooine being a safe haven of criminals. Does that mean that you are in a de facto state of war with the Black Sun?

Executor Vodo: The Black Sun should pray that I do not declare war on their government.

Reporter: How do you intend to occupy the planet, if the military zone were to extend to the planet Tatooine?

Executor Vodo: The Imperial military is equipped with hardware that can be used on any planet and in any known environment in the galaxy.

Executor Vodo: As you can see, we have begun to test some equipment that we believe will be ready in the event that the military zone expands to include a planet.

Reporter: Does that mean you plan to deploy Imperial Walkers to the planet? And if so, how many?

Executor Vodo: I will reserve those questions for the General of the Army.

Reporter: Does that mean that the General is now in the Tatoo system?

Executor Vodo: I do not comment on the whereabouts of Imperial personnel.

Executor Vodo: Those are all the questions I will accept today.
