The Riss Enemies

The threat from the JPU has been eliminated and the empires should be at peace, but fractions within the SAS have revised old resentments against the Riss and Freeland. These anti-Riss groups have distorted the facts of the war with the JPU and dispute the Riss's right to quarantine JPU, insisting the SAS should have exclusive rights to the JPU and the Riss quarantined. While the SAS plots against the Riss, an alien force enters SAS space and is annihilating inhabitable systems.The Riss attempt to form an alliance with the SAS and UFN to stop the alien invasion. But the threat from aliens isn't enough to avoid dissention and rebellion within the SAS.Meanwhile, newly discovered humans in a neighboring section of the galaxy are at war with more aliens—close enough to eventually be a threat. The Riss must choose to remain neutual or get involved.
