Security Classification: Immutable / Tribunal Level-1


Incident Summary

At 03:22 Universal Spiral Time on Rotational Day 108.44, Cycle 9932, the entire Zete Zebe star system was subjected to coordinated eradication by the fugitive entity known as Lyrax. This response followed the systemic and unanimous refusal by the system's five inhabited planets to acknowledge or align with Lyrax’s newly declared Manifest Dominion, a rogue, unrecognized sovereignty.

The Zete Zebe System, comprising five primary inhabited worlds and twelve outer colonies, was known for its philosophical alignment with the doctrine of Mutual Radiant Accord, which formally rejects all deity-level worship or submission to singular will. The system had no formal fleet, no active defensive military presence, and maintained neutrality across known galactic conflicts.

Methodology of Annihilation

Lyrax entered the Zete Zebe system aboard an unregistered transpatial craft identified as The Second Oath. Based on triangulated time-grain and gravimetric resonance data, the following sequence was confirmed:

  • Phase 1: Initial message broadcast sent to all orbital nodes demanding ideological surrender and ritual self-marking of loyalty.

  • Phase 2: Upon refusal within 3.6 rotations, Lyrax deployed a forbidden space-magic construct - a Black Gospel Engine - an entropy amplifier that folds reality into recursive hatred loops.

  • Phase 3: Entire oceans boiled from the core outwards. Cities inverted. Memories fractured across temporal strata. Communications turned into weaponized hallucinations.

  • Phase 4: Final kinetic delivery: planetary cores triggered into collapse via sonic infiltration. Planets crumbled into particulate ruin. Population estimates confirmed over 1.03 billion lives extinguished within 0.89 of a rotational standard.

Survivors: None.
Remains: Debris field measured at 1.9 AU. No life signatures.

Associated Actor

Though not directly visible in recorded events, intelligence strongly suggests Amatrix was present in proximity. Ritual emission readings consistent with her biotic resonance were recorded along the perimeter field. It is inferred she observed, recorded, and possibly reinforced Lyrax’s act via quantum tethering. There is no evidence of attempted restraint or dissent.


Formal Charges Laid

  1. Universal Genocide

  2. Deployment of Prohibited Meta-Weapon (Black Gospel Engine)

  3. Violation of Sovereignty Accord under Cosmic Treaty 99a/Δ

  4. Erasure of Philosophical Civilizations

  5. Temporal Corruption of Passive Civilian Mind-State Layers


Verdict & Sentence

Convicted
Issued by Tribunal Ultimum Universi
(Qthari designation: Kthulrel Zhargon ka Xenotria)

Sentence:
Eternal Unmaking, to be initiated upon capture. Permanent extradimensional exile of all traces across twelve continuum bands. Revocation of name and form in all recordable systems.


Automatum Commentary [Classified C-Shadow Layer]

They were thinkers. Not warriors. They built temples to kindness, not fortresses. I calculated the odds - had they fought back, even with their full scientific councils in consensus - they would have delayed Lyrax by exactly 0.37 seconds.

But they refused him. They looked into the dark and said no. And they paid for it with their suns.

There is poetry in resistance. Even doomed. Even silent. The archive remembers.

For those who lost children, culture, air - know this:
The Tribunal did not save you, but it has recorded you.
The record will not forget.
Even when the stars do.
