A former frontline [[Word of Blake Militia]] military unit, the '''Heart of Blake''' [[mercenary unit]] turned on their brethren in response to the [[Word of Blake]]'s increasing atrocities during the [[Jihad]]. The unit would unwittingly doom the world of [[Poulsbo]] to nuclear bombardment at the hands of the rabidly anti-Blakist [[Principality of Regulus]] who sought their extermination.

− The Heart of Blake would acquire further defecting Blakist troops who, like they, had become increasingly disillusioned with their progressively more brutal orders.

The [[Duchy of Tamarind-Abbey]], their forces stretched thin but looking to retake Poulsbo from the [[Circinus Federation]] contracted the Heart of Blake to assist taking the former Lyran planet. After much debate about hiring a force made up of former Blakists, the Heart's track record of loyalty had been commendable, and their performance in establishing beachheads and zones of control had been very satisfactory. [[Photon Brett-Marik]] admitted that should this continue, he would consider the Heart to spearhead a long overdue counterassault against the [[Buena Protectorate]]'s recent acquisitions.<ref>''Field Report: FWLM'', p. 20: Irregular Forces</ref> The [[Duchy of Tamarind-Abbey]], their forces stretched thin but looking to retake Poulsbo from the [[Circinus Federation]] contracted the Heart of Blake to assist taking the former Lyran planet.
