[The base is in the year 951--seven years after the Liozh revolt in the main timeline. Timeline for reference.
The Hellspin Massacre did happen.]
When Sasha reports in after the Cantata lands at the base, Ashari is extremely distracted, and quite possibly borderline inebriated as well. "You captured the target?" they demand. "Well, I suppose it's the least of our problems." They spritz themself with a mild intoxicant, which smells faintly of plum blossoms. "Did you know that in this base's timeline, there's no heptarchate or hexarchate at all? We've had to bring in all our supplies from other timelines."
