The Scothan Empire is in unknown space outside the Terran Empire. The Scothan Prince Cerdic leads a dozen spaceships that loot several planets, including a couple that are under Terran suzerainty although only tenuously connected, and Cerdic leaves no witnesses, thus avoiding open conflict with the Terrans until he has sufficiently prepared for it.
His agents on the Imperial planet, Llynathawr, are of different races, probably including some human beings and also Scothans pretending to be from another part of the Terran Empire - like Aycharaych who had claimed to be from the non-existent planet of Jean-Baptiste in Sector Aldebaran. The size of the Terran Empire makes it easy to infiltrate it.

Kaor, Paul!
Yes, infiltration of single persons or even a ship or two of the Empire wold not be too difficult. And as we seeing RIGHT NOW in the US, the guarding of land borders on a single planet can be very hard to do if the will to do so is lacking. "Josip" and his Democrats are INFURIATING many here for that reason alone!
Ad astra! Sean
