After the destruction of Alvega, the Daleks set their sights on [[Solturis]], a [[planet]] rich with [[mineral]]s. Solturis subsequently reported sightings of a [[Dalek invasion fleet]]; the [[World Government]] was said to be watching developments carefully. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Amaryll Challenge (comic story)|The Amaryll Challenge]]'') Indeed, they were kept abreast of events through accounts from both the [[Solturian News Agency]] and [[Space News Agency]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Penta Ray Factor (comic story)|The Penta Ray Factor]]'') One such article, released on [[31 July]], noted that [[Jareth|Prince Jareth]] had been called in by [[Mirva]] to investigate another [[prophecy]] of [[Lurr]] which was possibly related to his continuing opposition to the Daleks. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Peaceful Thals Ambushed! (short story)|Peaceful Thals Ambushed!]]'') The [[Solturian]]s were ultimately victorious in defeating the Daleks and the [[traitor]] [[Geltis]] in their plan to destroy the [[capital city]] of [[Bulos]] with the [[Pentaray]]. The Dalek Emperor had left Solturis prematurely but was unable to renew hostilities when the forces left behind were crushed because the [[fleet]] was recalled to deal with a crisis on [[Skaro]].

[[Radio station N92]] intercepted an urgent call from [[Black Dalek Leader|the Black Dalek]] which told the Emperor that a [[radioactive]] [[dust]] [[cloud]] was threatening their [[homeworld]]. News of this was broken to the rest of the [[universe]] on [[11 September]]. The [[science]] correspondent for ''TV 21'' was quoted as saying that if it had been exposed to Beta-Gamma rays, it could destroy a Dalek in "next to no time". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Ice Planet Mystery (short story)|Ice Planet Mystery]]'') Indeed it had and reports came in on [[25 September]] about the losing [[battle]] against what had become a [[rust plague]]. This updated article confirmed the earlier predictions that the contaminated [[rust]] was able to consume a Dalek in under half a [[minute]]. Although the Black Dalek released no [[information]] on the number of casualties, the Space News Agency station [[S.N.A. 5]] estimated that up to half the home army had been destroyed. They also had images of in [[Dalek Tracking station PZ8]] just prior to succumbing to the plague. The report plainly concluded that unless effective action was taken, all the Daleks on Skaro would be destroyed. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Daleks Suffer Heavy Losses! (short story)|Daleks Suffer Heavy Losses!]]'') Upon the Emperor's return, he realised the Black Dalek was the carrier and ordered that he be taken to the [[recasting furnace]] to have his [[casing]] reconstructed.
