History[]
Second Galactic War[]
Return of the Illuminate[]
Heze Bay was, much like all of its neighbors, a peaceful colony of Super Earth that had been settled after the First Galactic War. Like many others in the Southern Galactic Rim, Heze Bay's history was relatively uneventful, with its economy being robust enough to allow for the construction of urbanized settlements in order to house the growing populace. However, a resurgent foe was staring in envy, waiting for the moment to strike.
On December 25th, 2184, the 
Illuminate would send a raid onto Heze Bay. Since the Helldivers had been given complete operational freedom for the Festival of Reckoning, they would immediately dispatch a fleet towards the planet in hopes of repelling the raid and mitigating the damage. Unfortunately, the Illuminate would not be defeated and would instead withdraw once they had pillaged enough.
Civilian casualties laid in the thousands, both dead and missing. Homes laid in ruins and cities had been reduced to rubble. Yet the invaders' thirst appeared unquenchable as, on January 13th, 2185, they invaded Heze Bay for a second time. The Helldivers would only be able to divert a small contingent to aid with the situation, as they were occupied fighting the Terminids in the Farsight Sector.
