A Past's Hope
Battlegroup Reef Dancer...
Task Force Omicron-Nebula One-Three...
Squadron Darkstar....
All of these are amongst the most celebrated combat formations in the New Republic Fleet. All started in the Rebel Alliance Fleet, then proceeded to serve in the New Republic Fleet, before serving against the Yuuzhan Vong as part of the Grand Alliance Fleet. All served with honor, all saved millions, if not billions, of galactic citizens, and all accrued yet more awards.
By the end of the Yuuzhan Vong War, however, all of their ships were showing their age. None were falling apart--yet, at least--but all were no longer capable of accepting Service Life Extension Refits, all were no longer capable of accepting cutting age technology, and even the basic technologies necessary to fight the Yuuzhan Vong, all 'new' tech, was very difficult to refit to these proud ships.
After a final year of patrolling the galaxy, building and keeping the peace, all were withdrawn from frontline service. After an exhaustive review, it was determined that that these proud, lethal, and storied ships were no longer fit for continued military service. Combined into the 'Legacy Fleet', they were sent on one last mission: To tour the sites of the greatest battles of the Rebel Alliance, New Republic, and Grand Alliance, letting citizens pay tribute to the Legacy Fleet while also letting the veterans of the Legacy Fleet pay tribute to their service and their absent companions.
On their way back to Coruscant for formal conversion into museum ships, however, the Legacy Fleet is detoured to a secret installation in order to pick up some classified cargo and classified personnel and transport them back to Coruscant.
That is where you come in. Members of Team Wraithglaive, a Special Operations Team that has been together since a year before the Battle of Yavin (although some of you may have even more history), you have seen just as much combat as the ships of the Legacy Fleet. Given that Team Wraithglaive served aboard most of the ships of the Legacy Fleet at one time or another, it was decided that your last assignment before being permanently rotated into training assignments or retirement (as each of you prefer) was to tour with the Legacy Fleet. Given your experience and proven capabilities, Team Wraithglaive was assigned to escort the classified VIP and classified package onboard the Legacy Fleet for transport to Coruscant.
Now you all are about to head to Coruscant after making a pick up of the VIP and package from a planet known only as "Watchtower 271"...
