Narrator: Titanic Clash on Morelia. With the arrival of a powerful republic army on the planet the Morelians are pushed back considerably.

However Avona resolves that she will defend her home or die Trying.

(Morelia 3rd person POV) 1 month after battle start.

On Morelia after 1 month of fierce fighting the republic had scored some key victories .

Quinlon Vos had seized the Morelian stronghold of Vyrana citadel but was too weak to rejoin Kenobi and plo at the front.

Anakin had taken citadel Izana and was currently in a death match for the town against the Morelian 12th army. During the initial stages he had them retreating in full but The 12th army had retreated to dug in positions just outside the town and was grinding the 501st down with heavy machine gun and artillery fire.

Mundi and windu were still in a fierce Battle for control of the two citadels Guarding the capital.

The Morelian forces guarding them were among the finest Morelia had to offer. Among the defenders were shadow troopers who were tearing into republic lines and killing many marines and troopers. It wasn't until Mundi and Windu personally intervened that the shadow troopers were forced to fall back.

It was still no clear winner and Tarkin was furious.

He had wanted a quick victory instead the Morelians were fighting him tooth and nail for every inch of ground.

"Sir news from the Vyrana front." A aid says pulling him out of his angry thoughts.

Reports: enemy defenses stronger than anticipated ten thousand men are dead. Requesting air support or request permission to fall back. Signed: PLO KOON

Placing it down on the table Tarkin Pinched the bridge of His nose.

"Jedi are so incompetent." He growled softly "Fine dispatch the tenth bomber wing and order them to target Vyrana's trench defenses and tell Mundi to press his assault now we are already behind schedule." Tarkin ordered annoyed by the set backs.

Nodding the air rushed to comply while tarkin turned back to the holo map.

(Izana Front).

"Fall back." Rex called as three more clones dropped dead behind him.

All over the front 501st soldiers jumped into craters throwing grenades and firing all guns at Izana's defenses.

To their credit the 501st was besieging the town and some units Had managed to infiltrate the town and so the Morelians defensive line was more shaky.

However as the 501st learned Morelians we're very Fanatic in defending their homes and often would fight to the death rather than allow the clones any breathing room.

Anakin rushed to Rex's side a grin on his face.

"General what for you in such a Good mood." Rex questioned though he had his suspicions.

"I've got a plan to break into Izana." He tells Rex while deflecting blaster bolts. "If we launch a three pronged assault it may stretch the Morelians thin and allow us to break through." He says optimistically.

Rex however was still skeptical. "And who would lead these attacks and don't forget Morelians are fanatic defenders so an attack will be met with fierce resistance no matter how outnumbered they are." Rex pointes out.
