The High Knowledge Raid, also known as the Burning of Knowledge, was a Ventrian raid on the Yvnes system in the leadup to the founding of the CoDominium in [insert stardate]. Knight-Commander Douglas attempted to capture the station of High Knowledge with a small taskforce, using a series of kinetic impactors to distract the local Self-Defense Forces and mask his approach. Intercepted at the last second by the Blue Fleet, the station was instead destroyed to facilitate his escape.
The sacrifices of the Blue Fleet secured Aurora Ovsol-Klystron's credibility in the eyes of Yvnes' population and galvanized Yvnes to end its no-FTL policy.
