Upon Mitchell's death in 2588 Marantha assumed leadership of her nation as it struggled to resist the Star League invasion forces. Although the Taurian Defense Forces and the civilian guerrillas had fought bravely and cunningly, by 2590 the SLDF had taken all but the Hyades Cluster worlds. [2] Marantha had tried to use more defensive tactics to hold her planets against the invaders but SLDF reinforcements from the conquered Rim Worlds Republic and Outworlds Alliance were too much to resist. Beginning in the spring of 2591 the naval forces of the SLDF probed Flannagan's Nebula and began a five year slog through the hardened defenses of the Cluster. [3].[4]
