The Morios Empire was a single system government located in the Outer Rim. Controlled by a monarchy, the people were content with being ruled by one person. Their main export was unrefined and refined metals, for which they drilled into the planet's core to obtain. Unfortunately, they were preyed upon by pirates, who continually routed their small defense force. Eventually the King had one of his ministers send out a message for help. This call was answered by the Muir Corporation. Two representatives from the Corporation arrived and looked over the situation. While they were there, the pirates struck, and the two realized that the pirate fleet could easily be defeated by the Muir forces.
