*The Vlassy River was a major river on Garqi, running through the Vlassy Nature Preserve. Surrounded by forested bluffs and canyons, it was deemed unsuitable for farming, and had since become a major tourist destination.
The Vlassy Nature Preserve was a secluded wildlife preserve, located along the Vlassy River. Located eight hundred kilometers southeast of Pesktda, the Preserve was a popular destination for Garqians and off-world tourists alike. Due to the Preserve's forested bluffs and canyons, the region was also deemed unsuitable for farming, and has been a nature preserve since the planet's founding.*

 Outskirts of the Nature Preserve, hundreds of meters over the Vlassy River
With most of Garqi's territory being occupied by local agriculture the forested areas of the planet either serve as nature reserves and tourist attractions alike. With the First Order's occupation of the planet however, some of these zones are actively utilized as training areas for a majority of the local First Order troops in order to prepare them for the worst if it came to an invasion of the planet or in general to fights within dense forested areas. One of these training zones was located near the Vlassy River and its Nature Preserve, giving the three Victory II-class Star Destroyers, hovering over the area like alien invaders a grand view over the area in general.
On the ground most of the troops were already deployed, as First Order Stormtroopers marched several kilometers through the landscape, their rear being covered by walker pilots, who check the controlls and functionality of their assigned vessels. Overall a troop exercise though, both the Imperial Navy and the Military under Jenia's command agreed however for the coming days of this training to avoid any target practice with any weaponry in order to avoid damages upon the local fauna - given the wildlife's beauty and the existence of better Imperial training facilities for this kind of training, it is in the eyes of the Rear Admiral a waste to stress nature's durability more than it was needed to. Therefore the operation itself was quite calm, even though the Stormtroopers were armed with Blaster Rifles for the very unlikely case of an attack upon their formations.
Above them, within the atmosphere, the Rear Admiral herself monitored the training of the conjoined fleet operation.
::Target vector Alpha confirmed. No problems on the Revenant so far, Rear Admiral::
:: Spectre reporting to Banshee. Assignment of target vector is positive. The navigators can hold up with the formation as well::
Noting the progress within the training, Jenia looked up from the holographic table in front of her, where she saw her three Star Destroyers approaching slowly the coordinates she just gave. With the fourth attempt, the ship crews became finally accustomed to the differences between space and atmosphere, as the movement capabilities of the massive starships had increased by a small percentage within this test run once again. Jenia knew that this was probably the optimum for which she could hope, if this would not be a training situation, but an actual war zone.
Thus she nodded in pleased agreement.
"That's good news, captains", she solely adressed her subordinates, "Once we arrive at Alpha, set coordinates for point Beta. Our scouts have reported a fictional enemy base at this vector. We keep the formation, moving into position so that we can support Colonel Asmus' forces at the waterfall area. Once we are there, I wish to calculate the range of our gunners on all ships.
Other than that, no further orders for the moment. Kasalle out."
Once the transmission ended, she checked the activities on the Banshee once more, overseeing her crew in personal. So far her officers' expierience had grown over the last months, while both Captain Thorne and Captain Thax were capable enough to execute her orders to the level of perfection, which Jenia usually expected from officers of a captain's rank. Reading a short protocol, sent over by the Colonel, who was currently overseeing the ground movements from the perspective of his AT-AT walker, she barely noticed her guest entering the bridge in order oversee the whole training process as well.

The Nature Preserve was a proven hot spot for Imperials wanting a vacation. They earned their time, they clocked their hours, and earned the means to depart their offices, venture to Garqi, enjoy some well-grown Caf and gaze at the wonders and beauty of this preserve. The Empire had taken great cares and measures to ensure its beauty. One of the very few civilian operated departments, in fact, besides those dedicated to history and such. Recon troopers had their outposts within the Preserve, but not in places where it would disturb the peace and serenity. Security was still needed to keep an eye on things, but it wasn't over imposing like on other worlds.
