Multiple news platforms are reporting that ISC President Emryc Thorne has liquidated assets to purchase stakes into the biggest fueling companies on Malastare and Peragus II. As his first act as a part owner, he has taken steps to make the greatest sources of fuel virtually inaccessible to the Sith. Imperials have to pay an outrageous premium in order to access fuel, which will have direct economical impacts back home.
One of the richest men in the galaxy, Emryc Thorne is empowered to make quick financial plays that others may not have access to. The purchase deals have been completed under Thorne Holdings, the Thorne family’s personal wealth holdings company. This is also the parent and financial company that feeds into multiple subsidiaries that serve the galaxy at large.
The fuel crisis will be felt as an immediate strain on the Empire in their war efforts, greatly slowing their ability to rapidly mobilize their war machine without hemorrhaging economically.
