The Orchid hails the heroism of the DDS

The DDS fleet is battered but unbowed The Orchid has said in a live video address to the entire DDS. She hailed the heroes aboard the DDS fleet which managed to withstand a massive ABBO fleet and send them packing. "Our greatest gratitude is reserved to those who paid the ultimate price, and there are many, but everyone who fought and enabled the fight is also a hero!"

The DDS estimate that all but the most seriously damaged ships will be back in action by mid-week though full repairs may take some time. The Orchid warned that the ABBOs are still a serious threat. "When they repair their damaged ships they still have around 300 ships at Malau and who knows how many more they can reinforce from their home bases. The war is not yet over, there may be a long way to go but the DDS will win!"
