Biography
De la Sangre was responsible for bringing Demeter into the Word of Blake Protectorate, an act that led some to consider him the poster boy for peaceful integration into the Protectorate. In early January 3077 de la Sangre vanished from public sight, and official statements that he was indisposed with something akin to the flu were met with skepticism in some quarters. De la Sangre's continuing absence was marked by short-trading of shares in Vicore Industries due to de la Sangre's known major role in the company as well as increased military exercises on the part of the Protectorate Militia. As de la Sangre continued to remain out of sight, the rumours increased in scope, ranging from the possibility that de la Sangre was being blackmailed to speculation that he had been been abducted by a foreign power.[1]
Demeter was subsequently attacked by a task force from the Federated Suns on the 1st of February 3077 as a part of Operation SCOUR, the allied coalition campaign to liberate the worlds of the Protectorate.[2]
