The Narn-Centauri War comes to a head with a final, bloody battle.
[edit] Synopsis
Londo has been recalled to Centauri Prime for consultations on the war effort. Current plans allow Narn to direct its entire fleet toward a Centauri supply planet, while the bulk of the Centauri fleet converges on the Narn homeworld. Lord Refa expects Londo to deploy his "associates" to defend the Centauri supply world.
Meanwhile, Sheridan and Delenn are contacted by Draal, the Minbari who assumed custody of the buried technological treasures on Epsilon 3. He wishes to ally himself with Sheridan in the coming war, though Sheridan himself is still uncertain what role he will play in that conflict.
The Narn fleet, led by G'Kar's uncle, attacks the Centauri supply base only to be wiped out by the Shadows, who appear to be gaining more strength with each appearance.
Presently, a Centauri fleet, one of whose ships carries Londo as a first-hand observer, begins bombarding Narn with mass drivers, laying waste to the entire planet. Narn again falls to the Centauri Republic. (Attrib: B5 LogBook [1])
