The Ocean of Lost Angels is visible from an immense distance within the devastated system of New Eden. From whence Gheinok led the remnant, only dust remains tangible, relics from the first obliteration of sin in that Prophet's time. All that still exists today in material form is blasted rock, and far within the great maelstrom, the physical manifestation of the Gateway to Paradise.

It is well known, as the Gateway to Paradise has been studied from afar for millenia, that Heaven's door is unapproachable. In every direction for millions of kilometers, immense power radiates outward and bars any from reaching this point, perhaps the single most holy location in all physical space. No technology known to man allows one to pass through, nor even come close.

The spirits of all mankind come to the Gate for their judgement, but when they are found lacking, they are cast back, and for eternity everafter are cursed to inhabit the empty void, forever separated from the God they shunned in unworthy Life. The hatred, despair and anguish of countless billions since antiquity fills the space around the entry to Paradise, its manifest power devastates all things of the mortal world that comes into its grasp.

The Ocean of Lost Angels, a poetic yet appropriate name for the void where those who have forsaken God must wander, where they cry and lash out against those who still live, should they ever trespass into the area. Any who do are surely damned to join them, as it is the depth of sin to think oneself worthy of reaching Paradise before your soul is called to be judged before the Divine.

Truly, none of us who live today are pure enough to pass, for your very existence in its corporeal form, your presence in New Eden, is itself a sin that all humanity commits. Only through the purifying and transformative death of the mortal vessel can one's freed soul fly to the Gate. The faithful will find their way through the swirling tempest to receive their everlasting peace, guided on their journey in both Life and Death by the teachings of the Blessed Prophet Ocilan.

While the religious still confound me with their insistence on believing in the most ridiculous nutbaggery, a very few of them are at least very good at writing some fine fantasies that tease even the rational mind. Nicely put, whoever you are. Crazy, but nicely put. I'll keep an eye out for more of your stuff.

Well, at least they're less erratic, ignorant and brainless than the average goon.

I believe my current arrangement with the Seekers stipulates that I am being saved for last, thank you very much.

Because the Amarrian preisthood are generally drooling old self serving sycophants, leaving a very small minority of entertaining heretics such as the EoM.

EoM believe in some odd things. Maybe as odd, or odder than the Cult of the Lash, or the Mul-Zatah, or any number of other heretic persons.

And you can totes get square eggs. I saw this Caldari invention thing, what you do, is you put a freshly boiled egg in this thing, and it has a screw lid, and it gently presses the egg into a cube. Then when it cools, you can slice it, and have square egg slices.

Totes amazing.

Be a Space Nun, it is fun. \o/

Hmm, it must be a Caldari Corn Paste spinoff business venture.

CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, [u]please[/u] give us a persisting off button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals.

Is it just me or are the Amarrian heretics far more interesting than the orthodox types? At least most of the heretics can construct a coherent sentence and don't go around shouting "Amarr Victor" every chance they get.

Oh, and hello Louella. It's good to see you back on the IGS again.

When the world is running down, you make the best of what's still around.
