End of Battle for Zoafre

At 02/19/2012 at 22:28 the skirmish between the forces of Malinko and Cypherlieu and the forces of Spairn have ended as quickly as they began. The short conflict, which started on 02/19/2012 at 22:29, claimed 15 lives on both sides of the engagement.

The skirmish came as a surprise to the citizens of the Zoafre system as the first shells hit their targets. Experts expected this conflict to draw on longer than it did. Skeptics warn that this decline should not be considered permanent and that more hostilities are probable as long as relations between the two factions remain strained.
